    attn to your national management: this location regularly turns away customers starting at 8:30 and states they’re closed already cause the staff wants to close early…

    Loaded with added sugar. I wanted a healthy fruit smoothie. I ordered one with only fruit listed as ingredients. It tastes sweeter than kool-aid. Milkshakes have less sugar. Only half-blended. Big ice chunks. Tastes bad and unhealthy.

    Brought to the attention of the young lady that works there that there was no soap in the men's restaurant. She respond back with yeah, I know someone stole it. And then giggles, so if you know, someone stole the soap out of the menstruum.Why are you not putting soap in the men's room?Considering there was a young man working.I would avoid that place like the plague.They know There is no soap in the men's room which means they're not properly washing their hands when they touch your food people avoid this place

    Went in the drive thru tonight and the guy at the window put a $4 tip on my card without my consent. Wont be coming back. Last I checked it's illegal to charge someone for something without their authorization. I did speak to a manager the next day who said she would speak with him. She sounded genuine and apologetic so hopefully this won't continue happening to other people
