This location has an ongoing issue with prejudice, specifically with one cashier. For months, she has consistently treated me with suspicion and disrespect. Every time I place an order, and she rings me she looks at me as if I’m looking for trouble. When she entered my order incorrectly, and I mentioned it to her ; she questions me in a way that suggests I’m trying to “get over” or receive something for free. Her body language, tone, and assumptions speak volumes.
Today was no different. She entered my order wrong, assumed I wanted HOT coffees I did not order, mentioned an up-charge for ice coffees but didn’t charge me, then made my iced coffees incorrectly again. I had to come back around, which caused me to be late for work. Instead of taking accountability, the attitude implied that the issue was somehow my fault.
I do not tolerate prejudice or discrimination, whether verbal or nonverbal. Being repeatedly treated with suspicion for months is unacceptable, and it’s clear this behavior has been swept under the rug. I will no longer be a consumer at this location.

Lukewarm cheeseburger with a smashed bun, lukewarm french fries, watery, flat cola at 11:01 during the week. A waste of $8.23 of which should have been the very beginning of the lunch hour. Yet, already all items are of poor quality.

It's fine, one time they overcharged Me by like $8. I'm still kind of mad about that, but the rest of the orders I've gotten there have been correct.
