    Beware hungry travelers… The App and their Google listing says they’re open until 11, but we were turned away at 9 stating “we’re closed”. Won’t waste my time getting off the turnpike to go here again.

    Had to go to 2 different menu boards to find one that d worked. Ordered and went to pay and the menu board would not accept a card payment. Luckily the carhop had a portable card reader. This store is very poorly maintained on the outside, the menu boards are always broke and don't work. It makes it hard to trust that my food is being made in a sanitary way when simple maintenance items around the building are never addressed. This store has always had many issues and they never seem to get better.

    I walked my dog and got us drinks. She is not a city dog. But she handled it very well. Great service. Made us feel comfortable.
