    Hello people who read reviews like me! A lot of reviews on here are talking about the service and how the staff treat customers, I need you guys to know that more than half of the old staff is now gone, there are new and kinder ones who are here to help you out without a problem.

    Went through around midnight with my boyfriend and ordered a chocolate Oreo milkshake. We received a regular Oreo milkshake so we turned around. She said they’d remake it only if we returned the original one so they could throw it away. Which whatever okay but my boyfriend licked the straw and we both had a couple sips from it. She hands us back the milkshake with no whip cream (which was previously on it), and the straw still in it and the same swipe mark from my finger from it overflowing. Very clearly just mixed something in with the milkshake we originally had and handed it back to us.

    Was trying to get a quick bite, to eat on the way to a meeting. But as other times, they made me wait so long, for my coffee to be ready. I know the employees usually are young, but they should work in getting the orders ready in better time.

    Waited at the window for 14 minutes. No hello, no payment processing. Then we get out food and its cold and the oil tasted rancid! Rhe guy behind us drove away after waiting too long.The staff couldn't be bothered to make eye contact or care at all. So frustrating.
