- CKCraig Van De KrolMay 9, 20264.0Employees behind the counter were a delight!!
- NNNancyMay 5, 20264.05/5/26 I ordered the chicken sandwich with waffle fries and a lemonade ice cream drink. The chicken sandwich wasn't anything exceptional as everybody makes it sound like it is. Just average to me. The waffle fries were very good and so was their dipping sauce. The lemonade ice cream drink was good but i didn't taste any lemonade. It was all packaged well and steal warm on delivery.
- JSJoel SweenMay 5, 20265.0Anders was patient with me when I told him my family’s order and making changes as I made a couple goofs. The manager on duty was also great and attentive when my family asked for refills on drinks. Excellent customer service was experienced here.
- KKktwstar21 (Katie)Apr 23, 20261.0Closed at 8:30 when they're supposed to be open til 9
- MHmaxpvps happyfaceApr 17, 20261.0for a company that’s supposed to have the best customer service. I’d give it a two at best.
