    Here have a 1 star! One of the front entryways was blocked with storage junk and locked. The other next to it was open. When staff saw me and second customer come through the door they hid in the back for about 5 minutes. I think they were hoping we'd go away. Past experience with this behavior normally results in staff messing with the food so I left. Meme: LOTR "Abandon your post! Collect your paychecks!" Lol.

    Purchased 2/$5 Got Pretzels and a Cheeseburger, pretzel were ok, but burger was terrible and I always use to like their burgers. Bun was like chewing leather and very small, terrible! Won’t be competing with other chains if that keeps up! I should have complained at that moment, but the more I thought about it, the more I got disgusted! So I’m saying something now! Also, the $5 Mystery bags use to have 3 items, enjoyed trying them, but now only 2 items and one was ice cream with real peanut butter on it! Must have been an employee special! Wish Jerry was back running the place! Going downhill, and he wouldn’t be happy hearing it from me! He always asked me how was my experience! First time I’ve ever complained! Do better!!!

    I used the drive through, if you have a large vehicle be careful, turning radius is very tight. Food was great though. Blizzard as always.
