    They are always out of everything. Its like they forget to check their inventory. Cant order on the app half the time. I always am receiving my food cold. Takes about 20-25 mins after checking in to get my food. I am surprised this location is still open

    Went Through the drive thru and ordered 3 sweet teas and 3 pretzels one order of jalapeno poppers. The lady over the speaker says sorry we don't have pretzels is that fine. I was ok with it and ordered the grill cheese. When I got up to the window my total was 32.72 when I got home and pulled out the food I had 3 pretzels and jalapeno poppers. She charged me way to much for what I got. I paid with cash. Also I try to call the number and it's not in service.
