    This location never has a working ice cream machine. I don’t know what the problem is, but it’s one of the ones that’s open late and never seems to have a working ice cream machine. I don’t see how that’s possible for such a long period of time. Months and months it has been down. Certainly Management would’ve addressed this issue by now. Or somebody just doesn’t want to do their job…

    I used the app to place a mobile order. As instructed, I parked in a spot and paid for the order. It was 4:22. The app immediately told me order was received and at 4:24 it told me that my order would be out in 3 to 5 minutes. I waited, and waited. After about 20 minutes it said we hope you enjoy your order as much as we enjoyed preparing it. Great. Except I didn't get any order. Since I paid I got in the drive thru line. I got up to the order screen and told them I'd ordered using the app but didn't get it, the guy said oh, they will get it to you, just drive around. The line wasn't short. So I finally get up to the window and before the girls could hand me the wrong order, I told her I had placed an order through the app and she had no idea what I was talking about. I handed her my phone so she could see my order. They then threw it together quickly and handed it to me. No apologies, no acknowledgement of it being 40 minutes later. I was NOT happy. Fast food? Ha!
