    Went through drive through and ordered meals and drinks for 3 people. Drive through employee acted as if I was wasting his time. At the window the only words he said was the total and took my card. He then would hand me one item at a time and close the window, never saying a word. Knowing that I had a food order he handed me all the ice cream first ...which was melting all over me and the car by the time I got my food. Once he handed the bag of food out , I nicely said thank you and smiled, thinking maybe he was having a bad day, to which I got an fake smile, nod, and window slam. Not asking the world, but just even a bit of kindness and consideration. If you don't like people, don't work in the drive through and remember that ice cream melts while people are waiting for food orders.

    You'd think you'd be just a little slower. Only having drive through? At 7 pm? No employees? Or lazy? Sat for nearly 10 minutes and drove off when line didn't even move one space. Maybe less chatting children working and more work needs to be done,

    I wanted to pass along just how great the crew was tonight. I am a regular and upon my arrival i could see the store was busier than usual from what appeared to be from a local school event. I was bracing for a longer turn time to get my order taken and made but the crew was amazing getting peoples orders taken and served quickly and perfectly. I should not be surprised because i always have a good experience there. Just wanted to pass along my experience from tonight
