    Bathroom needs attention. Floors are full of mud. Sinks look like they have not been cleaned in weeks. Toilet stalls are filthy. Restaurant floors are dirty and tables as well. It is 11am so the lunch rush has not even started. I tried to be discreet while taking photos. It’s much worse in person.

    Makes you late for work! 15 min in the drive thru - I told the girl now I'm late for work (they got the order wrong for the 2nd car ahead of me) she said "sorry, that's not our fault." True - I shouldn't have ordered ahead for it to be ready 30 min before I got it! Because I paid for it I had to wait.

    Ordered two toasted bagels and 1bowl of chicken noodle. I would say thank goodness the bagels filled me up mostly since I had mainly broth and only a few noodles. Might be awhile for me to eat more soup at this location
