Went to get the Peanut Paradise smoothie after a run, intentionally for the extra protein this smoothie has. My husband also wanted a chocolate/peanut butter/banana smoothie and simply asked while ordering at the speaker if they had an item like this as I was unfamiliar with their full menu. They told me to pull up to the window to clarify. I repeated my order, they repeated it back. I was given a Peanut Butter Cup smoothie for my husband but I was given a paradise punch, which was pink and I knew from the color this was incorrect. I mentioned I said a Peanut Paradise drink as I’ve had this before, I intentionally want it for the protein and said I wanted whey protein when ordering at the speaker. They said “I asked you and you said paradise punch”. No offer to fix the mistake - just said I said it wrong and no correction. I proceeded to leave and deal with my far more sugary smoothie and 0 protein despite spending $15.

Always a good experience when I start my day here. People are really friendly and positive. Location is nice and clean. I went through the Drive Thru and the amazing person knew my order and even knew I forgot to ask for my regular add-ins, and proceeded to make my order the way I always order it. I was blown away from the quality of customer service.
Thank You for All You Guys Due!!

I went inside the restaurant. There wasn't anyone inside or in drive-thru. I ordered a smoothie and salad. I received my smoothie and then waited 15 minutes for my salad. A couple cars went through drive thru. They took care of them first. The guy handed me the bag of food. I told him I didn't order a wrap I ordered the salad. He questioned me and the manager. It only took the guy a few minutes to make my salad. The manager didn't have a care in the world that a customer was standing there for 15 minutes waiting. He was focused on getting the smoothies made, cleaning out the fruit containers and rinsing the blenders. They lost a customer.

Would not honor their coupon. Spoke with the manager and chocolate chip cookies do not count as food. They will need to reprint with more precise language
