Wendy’s

Spicy chicken? Nope, they give you regular chicken which tastes like a paper towel sandwich. The meat has a rocky petrified wood center from improper cooking. The woman at the drive thru window resembled a wicked witch, and her bossy yelling rather than speaking just makes you wish you were dead rather than sitting there another second. Also — get ready for the cashier to literally scream the «guest count» back to the employees in the drive thru if you go inside. If you like getting meals from trailer park dumpsters, this place is for you.

We’ve gotten good from their drive thru before and it seems there’s always a problem with the order. Today we got food from the drive thru and they screwed up my burger, which was minor. However, we got home and there were no napkins, no straws for the drinks and I got a sweet tea instead of the unsweet I was supposed to get. We also got a grilled chicken sandwich for my kid, who has allergies, so it was supposed to be plain. Nope. Lettuce, tomatoes, and whatever that sauce is they put on it. Who knows what’s in it, and my kid could have a severe allergy. What shocks me is fast food workers want $ 15−20/hour to put a sandwich together, and this place can’t even get that right! I’ll give it ZERO stars if I can. If not, I’ll begrudgingly give it one star, but ONLY because they make me. I’ll never go back to this place. How hard can it be? It’s food, not rocket science.

For fast food restaurants go, Wendy’s has always been my first pick, so it kills me to give this a one star, but alas there it is. I was on the west end, and having loved Wendy’s every time I have gone, this time I was really disappointed. The front of house was slow to take an order. It seemed like the staff were more interested in bullshitting than working.
While I understand that there is a certain level of apathy that comes from a staff consisting of part time high school and college kids working for $ 7/​hr, there comes a point where blatantly ignoring customers to talk about who was banging who in school is ridiculous. I never did get to order becasue I got tired of being shown a hand and left. I never encounter this on the south end or the Wendy’s in Thurmont.

Okay, I know it’s fast food, but we just had a wonderful meal here! Service was super-​quick and fresh. I am a picky orderer, but they got everything right the first time (rare). Too bad it was the current manager’s (Ronnie?) last day. Hopefully, it will be just as good when we go back.
