- MHMaggie HenryNov 8, 20251.0We were ordering and the worker very rudely and aggressively told us to hold on after asking us what we would like. When we pulled up to the window they still talked to us rudely. We also asked if they had pup cups and the worker rudely said we don’t do pup cups
- RRRyRyOct 28, 20255.0Well then, what's not to like about baconator fries, great burgers and sandwiches, hands down the BEST chicken nuggets, chocolate frosty shakes, and that chili we've all definitely loved over the years? Even the Wendy's joints throughout our great country that aren't located in the best areas, and don't function at exactly 100% in service, quality, surroundings, etc.. are still light years better than just about any of the other major fast food brands, who's sub par general output don't come close.. I'm 4ever loving Wendy's better than all the others
- SKS KOct 2, 20252.0Ordered a son of Baconater combo. This is what I got. 3/4 of a strip of bacon, only a couple drops of ketchup and barely half a container of fries (large). It also took about 7-8 mins to get the window and they still had me pull up and wait to bring out my order. I also asked for extra napkins and didn’t get ANY at all so I had to go back inside and ask for them. This is unacceptable. Worst location in CR.
- KWKim WilsonSep 27, 20255.0Usually not busy. Mostly just a couple of ppl n quiet
- CTCayleb TaylorSep 25, 20255.0Used to avoid this location, but since new management took over I feel service and turnover times have greatly improved.
