    continually out of items if you order online, except you don’t know that until you arrive to pick up your order because their staff has zero understanding of customer courtesy calls and mark your order as ready regardless. they tell you they’ll refund the out of stock or missing items from your order, but they don’t. do not order from any business that fails accountability.

    I’ve gone through the line. I have gone inside and I’ve even ordered from DoorDash. Make sure you check your order before you leave the parking lot and if you’re gonna order from DoorDash, don’t because you can’t check the order before it gets to you. Oh, and just opening the bag and trusting the label that they use doesn’t work anymore. I ordered a tuna sandwich and got the cranberry walnut chicken salad sandwich. I’m Highly allergic to walnuts and I got the pleasure of using my pen AND a hospital visit. Also doesn’t help that they move at a snails pace. Very obviously need better management in here
