No one in any stalls. Only 2 cars in drive thru. Took 20 mins to get my online order. They marked it as on the way out 5 mins after I got there. After all the new cars that pulled up after me and one was a large order I had to stop someone and ask about my food. She went in and checked. 4 mins later she came back and said my order was lost for a second.

Paid 10 bucks for 2 corndogs and fries. Food was cold when I got it, and the corndogs weren't very good. Gonna be honest - I would get better corndogs and better prices from a gas station... so I can't say I really reccomend it

There was a huge piece of hair in my food. Is it that much to ask for staff to wear hairnets?? Will not be returning

They messed up one of our items in our order which was no big deal. We politely and nonchalantly asked to exchange it for what we ordered. Lady came out asked for the item back that we didn’t order. Made a spectacle of throwing it away in front of us and then as she was on her way back inside she let out this horrendous scream like a toddler for all to hear. Thanks! We won’t be back!
