    Went to get two hot dogs, drive through person kept asking if I wanted chili on it, I said no.3 times then i was accused of yelling at her. No! I was not yelling I was talking loud, so she could hear my order, she apparently couldn't hear or understand. I left I went to a different one, cars were waiting and when we got our order. The dogs were warm/cold the fries were old

    Just went through the drive through and ordered over $30 worth of food and drinks. Waited over 20 minutes for the food to come out, only to be told they could not take a $50. We had no other bills available and no other way to pay. They were completely unhelpful and made us hand all of our food back, which I assume went straight into the trash, and we were sent on our way. I understand not taking $50’s for a small order, but they would have had to give us about $15 worth of change back. Again, we had no other way to pay for our food. I can’t believe wasting that amount of food on an order that was large enough that taking a $50 would not deplete your drawer, after an extremely long wait, and then being rude about it too. I’m just shocked.

    Normally pretty quick but aren't blast supposed to have whatever ingredient you ask for mixed in to it not just sitting on top if I wanted a bowl of vanilla ice cream I would have gone to Walmart
