    Ordered ahead for my kids and I for after trick or treating… I know it’s a holiday and it’s busy but the way I was treated and how long we had to wait was absolutely ridiculous. I ordered 3 kids meals all the same and a meal for myself, my daughter’s meal was thrown together and missing all toppings on her burger.. but they were busy so I let it go. I was told to move up so they could bring out our meals in a few minutes. 20 minutes go by and the kids meals are brought to me. I tell her we are missing mine and she goes back in. Never comes back. 10 minutes go by another lady comes out asking if I’m someone else. I tell her what I’m waiting on and she does the same thing. Third lady comes out asks what I’m waiting on. Goes inside. 10 minutes later a different lady brings out a bag and shoves it into my window and walks away. I put it aside and go home. Open it up and it’s not what I ordered. And it’s a burger unwrapped … a 4 piece nugget and a small fry… I ordered the triple cheeseburger meal … so I was treated like an animal and waited over 45 minutes just to be served crappy food..

    Clean atmosphere with quick meals to go. They seem to change out the oil frequently so your fries taste fresh and not the over saturated in old grease taste. They also have the quick order machine inside and you can use the app to order before you even arrive.

    Didn't receive the correct order. Couldn't find a clean table to sit down and eat. Tables were full of crumbs or food residue. Didn't enjoy listening to political nonsense while I ate.
