    Ordered 2 dave singles and a frosty from the inside. Sat down at table to eat Me and my girlfriend each took one bite from burger. Looked at each other like what?!! Stale bun. Cold cheese. Cold meat. Sooo salty. I said I dont think i can eat this. She said me neither lol. Gave them back their burgers got a refund of money easily though and the frosty was great.

    Service is always SUPER slow. Always have to wait an unreasonable amounts of time. Even on mobile orders. Very frequently items are missing as well. You'd think if it was going to take so long, they could at least get the order right. Geesh.

    Every time i have come here for two drinks I have had to wait unreasonable amounts of time. Recently i waited ten minutes at the speaker (nobody in front of me) while they told me to wait, but never took my order. Eventually i left and when I called they said they only had one worker which is insane, if you're short you need to close the lobby or something, not let people wait. The drinks were fine considering it was just hi C, but the wait was not worth it you guys need to get more staff or something because waiting 10 minutes just at the speaker is crazy. Especially knowing that with this location it'll be another 10 minutes waiting for the drinks at the window. just skip it yall

    As someone who has worked in fast food, I can’t believe the amount of time they will have you wait here. On multiple occasions I waited here for 10-30 minutes either waiting for food, waiting to order, or all of the above. I legit just don’t even know how you can be that slow.

    Alright google, you asked for this, so I’m a long time fan of Wendy’s, been going to them since I was a kid, I recently moved to the area and was excited that one was so close, I went at 1 pm on a Wednesday, I don’t think I’ll be going back. All I’m willing to say is that it’s typical Wendy’s food, but the warmest thing on my tray that day was my soda cup with ice.
