    I live Wendy's but this particular location cant seem to get the food right. They are SLOW! We were there at least 10-12 minutes which is crazy for a fast food place that didnot have anyone else in front of us! They either cant hear what you say, arent listening, or just dont put specialties in the system leaving the kitchen crew make it worng. Most of the stuff are not rude necessarily but not what i would call friendly either. One of the managers spilled 1/4 of my tea into my car and all over me then she grinned like it was funny! When I asked for napkins she huffed at me like i was an inconvenience. I have NEVER seen a MANAGER be so rude and disrespectful to a customer!

    On 10/27/25 at 7:10pm I utilized the drive through. Firstly, I was the only customer in the drive through. The employee was carrying on a personal conversation over the speaker as I was placing my order. I ordered a potato, small chili and a junior bacon cheeseburger. The employee didn’t know if they even had potatoes. I paid $8.40, was handed 2 bags and left. When I arrived home I discovered my burger was missing. I immediately called and advised of the missing item. I was met with a very rude response of “just come back and get it.” I told the lady I live 20 minutes away, I stopped on my way home and was not going back out in the rain. Without acknowledging me, she handed the phone to someone else. The woman said she was the manager. I explained the situation. She said I could stop by tomorrow with my receipt. I told her that the employee never gave me a receipt. She took my name and number and said she would leave a note. To make matters worse the chili was nothing more than undercooked bean soup. Not a single piece of meat in it! This is not the first time this location has messed up an order and been rude about it. My suggestion: stop at the Wendy’s at Clinton Hwy/Callahan instead.

    Manager and staff do not want to be here from what I could see. Restaurant is very dirty - sticky floors, dirty tables, etc. Staff are not familiar with menu options.
