    The waitresses were sweet and attentive. Unfortunately the last two times I’ve been there, I’ve ordered blasts and the toppings were just placed on top of the ice cream and not mixed in. This past time they made me a new one after I said something. It also took 15-20 mins after ordering at the drive up to receive my ice cream.

    The kids running this store keep closing the lobby hours early and not taking orders at stall. They can't even answer and say plz go to drive through. They just keep hanging up on the stall with nothing said. 830pm 1/3/26. (This also is not the first time I've had this problem here) The owner operator Whitney brown needs to get her store in check!

    You got a hot dog with no dog, just bun and chili. The chili was all in the bag and all over the fries and chicken tenders. After getting the refund, we found the weenie the bottom of the bag. From what I remember, they used to just hand you the hot dog. Definitely dropped and lied about.

    Used drive through and Spent over $30 for cold, burnt fries and chicken bites. What makes it so bad is they cooked one fresh order of chicken bites and then still used old ones for the other. This isn't the first time this has happened but it will be my last because I will never stop here again. Teach your employees how to do their job!
