    All I wanted was extra bacon on my breakfast burritos. I paid the charge for it. I asked if it was on there when I received it. Was told it was on there. Just to get home and see that it wasn’t on there. That’s fine just give me my $ back for the upgrade. But no, the manager on duty said he made it and it was correct and that he had to get to work and I was wasting his time and thatI could come up there to talk to his GM next Monday. Super rude especially when I tipped him on the app and in person thinking my order was correct.

    They close twenty minutes earlier and turn the lights off right when you pull up! Don’t bother
