    Good grief. How does this place stay open?? Went to the drive thru after not being able to order in an outdoor kiosk. Ordered #3, got a kids cheeseburger instead. Circled back around and the young lady knew what she did, handed me another burger….still wrong. Decided to go inside to order an ice cream and refill my drink. There was no ice in the drink machine. 15 people in line. One cashier. Needless to say, I did not wait for ice cream. Just a disaster. Y’all need help!

    Ordered in the app and waited over 50 mins for the food. Tried to get a refund and they weren’t able to due to the order being placed in the app. While waiting in the lobby multiple people were asking for refunds. Order was missing multiple items.
