I hate to talk about my people but this group of individuals they call employees especially the night employees literally suck, attitudes are bad and the food is bad. Always claim to be out of something like how don’t yall have any mustard? 😂 that’s like the number 2 condiment for a burger. Get new staff please.

Came into the restaurant at 8:45 pm and was refused service. The manager on duty that refused to identify herself told me they didn't have enough staff to take my order and that I needed to go through the drive through. I told her I was on a bicycle. She told me that that was my problem.
Rude, unprofessional, and incompetent. Thanks for leaving me hungry, Wendy's.

Don't even bother going there!! The people are rude, and it may seem petty, but they don't have ketchup. So you wait in line for lousy customer service can you get a lousy product. Definitely not worth the wait
