    Wendy’s everywhere has really gone downhill. Way too expensive for mostly bread and paper thin patties.

    Told me they couldn’t make the drink I ordered and they were making one for another customer when I got to the window. Staff unfriendly. Decided to check my sandwich prior to eating and there was a hair in it.

    Shut this place down and start over. Today I finally see why all of our neighbors have been telling us not to go here. The restaurant appears clean but the service and food are terrible. Do yourself a favor and drive a couple miles to the Wendy's in Palmetto.

    This location always has some sort of problem when I come here: “No internet, systems down, can’t take payments, fryers not working”. If you always have problems, maybe get them fixed, or address lazy staff lying so that they don’t have to work?

    Worst Wendy’s on the planet! Stopped at drive thru for food; tractor trailer delivering. Took order, then proceeded to tell me after I paid to pull up and wait, meat is “being delivered right now.” I was like what!!?? You should tell people before you take orders. Waited 20 min, when they came out with car ahead of me food, employee stopped by to say “they’re dropping the spicy chicken now.” I handed her my drink and said I want a refund. Mgr came out to apologize with my drink and said “are you sure, we’re cooking the chicken now”. I said yes, give me my money back! Took another 10 min and only provided when I backed up to the drive thru window again. Never again. Not this store!!
