Shortly after leaving your store at 5560 W central ave Toledo, I realized I forgot my change. I called to check. I ordered a single combo with a medium soda. I paid with a $20. They tried to tell me my change was $4. What did I pay with ? A $12 bill. Obviously they pocketed the money. The $8 they were trying to steal was not worth the hassle of arguing..What a shame. I will never eat at Wendy’s again.

Went to Wendy's in Cypress off of Corporate way last night. Food was great but I had my debit card info stolen and 94.60 charged to my debit account. I wondered why it took the girl so long to run the card.. well now I know! I like Wendy's food but I will not be going back to Wendy's!

20

This Wendy’s is complete ass there is only one good worker who closes the store because the managers suck ass. I’m not ban but they wanna yell at me telling me to get the fuck out. Fix your shit

20

I was at the drive threw window this evening at 5 pm. I had to wait for 20 min. before anyone took my order I told them that I wanted a Taco Salad and the girl at the window told me in a very rude way that they had no chili. I was already pissed from having to wait in line so long. There were lots of cars behind me and quit a few of them just left.
I was at this same Wendy's 2 weeks ago and was told the same thing. I could not get a Taco salad because they had no chili.

REALLY I THOUGHT WENDY'S WAS KNOWN FOR THIER CHILI !!!!!!!
The Wendy's in Appomatox Va, has very rude employee's and never has any food ready. Thats to bad cause lot's of people here use to like to eat at Wendy's.

Last night, 4/4 9pm Location US 1 N. St.Augustine Fl. I drive through the drive thru to place an order, I inquired about the difference between the baconater and the son baconater sandwich, I asked 3 times and only response was one was smaller than the other, I was curious about the ounce and bun portions. I pulled up to window and I asked the young lady again and she repeated her answer to me in a smartass way I told her I will go elsewhere and don’t have to put up with her attitude, she said fine with me and dropped my tea out the window on the drive thru I also noticed her manager was behind her laughing her ass off. So I went to McDonalds, I did see the managers name was Samantha. I won’t say I will not go back but something should be corrected in this store. Thanks

This is the second time I've been to the Patterson California Wendy's and they don't have half salads they always tell me that they have nothing but. Salads. I don't know why you have half salads if every time I get off of work you guys only have full salads. It's becoming a routine with them. Not satisfied, with the practice at the Wendy's and Patterson.

20

I rate Wendy’s a 0. Sorry service, took 22 min from order to serve, ran out of napkins, ketchups, Frostys and fries. Total joke and they didn’t seem to care. Just a bunch of clapping monkeys.

20

Terrible experience today at your store at 6531 E. 82nd St., Indianapolis, IN 46250. Waited over 20 minutes in the Drive through line. There seemed to be an argument between a driver and the worker at the window. Instead of having the car move on or have the person come inside they just kept arguing at the window. I finally left. I'll never go back to this location.

20

My food was so old that the meat in the chicken tenders was dried up! The FF we're cold but worse they were dark brown, from using old grease. I live to far away to be capable of returning them.
In addition, my salad was half iceberg lettuce. I would never have ordered it had I known that you did this. It appeared to be hidden in the center.
Never again will I spend my money at your establishment!
Wrong, it's wrong to do this to your customers!

20

This Wendy's at U.S. 278 has the most attitude towards the customers and employees...The general manager was going at with an employee in front of customers and employees...The employees are already rude but this store is very short staffed and they need to be retrained on service...

20

Service is very bad when ordering employees are not friendly or polite.Normally I find Wendy’s restaurants employees very outgoing and polite. This location in New Smyrna Beach Florida is not managed very well. I trust this will help you make the nesaserary changes that will bring this location up to the high standards that I find at other locations. Thank hope this of interest to you.

20

Today the average wait time for an order was 8 minutes--I timed it. Terrible service. Finally my wife & I walked out, along with 3 other couples of about 20 people waiting in line. We saw 2 of them later at McDonalds. The New Smyrna Beach store's service has always been slow but this was a new low!

20

ordered a baked potato with SHREDDED cheese and sour cream, I opened the bag I had liquid cheese, I asked the cashier to exchange it, she had an attitude and gave me the smallest potato ever, with shredded cheese and no napkin, butter salt or anything, its sad and I wish I would have checked the bag again, I would have just asked for my money back.

Dear Management,

On 3/31/19 around 3:00PM, I was at the Wendy's located at 2-30 Garfield Avenue, Jersey City, NJ (201) 433-3950 and I have to say that this is the worst managed facility that I have ever dined in. The place was literally a zoo. The tables and floors were dirty, there were no napkins in the dispensers, and there was only one kid working the register, and he was the worst that I have ever seen. The kid was rude and making mistakes on every order. He was also talking to his friends on the phone and flirting with the females in the store while taking orders, and all this was being done while the manager just looked on doing absolutely nothing. It took 15 minutes just to get our orders and when we received them they were the wrong items. Someone from Wendy's Corporation really needs to go to this facility undercover, then mandate training to ALL staff members, including management because this place is a disgrace to the franchise. There also needs to be diversity at this location because the only staff that I saw were African Americans. This is the same situation at the nearby post office, and the service there is also horrific. This is the reason why diversity is crucial at all companies or else staff gets complacent and the quality of service goes down.

Sincerely,
Anthony "Very Dissatisfied Customer"

I came to store #00007930 located at 1753 Macland Rd, Marietta, GA 30064, phone#678-290-5579. The person's name on the receipt if Arthur. First off, he was very rude and was rushing me, when there weren't anyone else inside the restaurant eating and no one was behind me in the drive thru. I think he wanted to get back outside, as everyone was standing outside the restaurant smoking when I pulled up. Once I finally got my order placed, he was rude at the counter when he took my money, then at drive thru window 2, the girl who handed me my phone was very rude, rushing, almost pushing the bags into my car. She didn't ask if I needed any napkins or sauce, as I assumed they would be in the bags, but when I got home, 5 minutes later, there wasn't any sauce for the nuggets, no spoons for the chili, no crackers or chili sauce, and all of the food was cold. I can understand if they were busy, but there wasn't anyone at the restaurant. also, the bags and the inside of the restaurant through the drive thru window smelled like cigarette smoke. I ordered 2 of the Bacon Double stack $5 biggie bags, large size, two large chilis and a fish sandwich. As I stated, all of the food was cold, the fish sandwich was cold and hard, and inedible. I have never had an experience like this at any wendys, and because of this I will not be back, and I will be sure to let my friends and family know as well.

I live in Las Cruces NM. Tonight I stopped in the Wendy's on Walton Dr. .
My wife and I are moving across town and wanted a quick meal.
She order a chicken sandwich combo and I ordered a ceasar salad and a large chili. When I noticed that she was charging me almost 5 dollars I asked her why. She told me they no longer serve the ceasar salad. I asked her why is it still on the menu... She looked confused. I said nevermind just give me the chili. After tasting the chili I realized it was only Luke warm at best. I took it back to the girl working the counter and explained my problem. Still looking confused she took it back. Waiting for about 5 minutes I returned to the counter and and asked about the chili. She poured me another cup witch was just as Luke warm as the first. I asked to speak to the manager. The girl came up and I explained my problem. By this time my wife was done eating and ready to go. The manager explained the chili was still warming up in the warmer. Being in the food service industry for 45 years I told her it she be at temp before it even goes in the warmer. She disagreed and told me that's the way they do it.
Needless to say I asked for my money back. And told her I don't think the health department would agree with her method of heating up food in the food warmer.... I won't be back for awhile

20

Ordered 2 number 1s and ordered sweet tea, Diet Coke and no tomatoes.
Of course we get our food and we get unsweetened teas for both drinks, tomatoes on both sandwiches and a rude answer when we asked to correct it. I’m done with this Wendy’s as it is always poor customer service. From a prior Wendy’s employee, you can do better

Terrible place here! (W. Hempstead NY.)

The WENDY'S franchise, in my opinion, for decades has always been one of the top notch fast food companies. However, it seems to be a lack of proper training and understanding, when it comes to customer service these days at some of their locations in New York.

The Wendys, West Hempstead NY location frequently keeps dirty tables and floors, at any hr of the evening when you want to dine in. Going through the drive thru, always takes 3xs as long then any other fast food drive thru, with a line of cars that stretches out to the roadway. Then when you finally receive your food, usually, grease, mayo or ketchup is all over the wrappings and the bag. This location has been sliding down hill for over 8yrs now. Some of the managers they have rotated through, like the one they have there at nights now, dont appear to have things well under control as if they are overwhelmed with the position, being inexperienced and/or under trained.

When a manager comes out of the back from doing whatever it is she was doing, yelling and talking recklessly to customers because they came inside to order their food, rather then to stay sitting on a long line and continue waiting, there is a serious problem with this person. After giving her a piece of my mind for acting like an azz, with lots of restraint, I was forced to spend my money down the road with one of Wendys competitors, where they know how to treat customers, even though the food isnt at the same level of quality.

I dont recommend anyone spending their hard earned cash at this location, its a huge disappointment, often. Not fit for family, or dating, and if you do go to the drive thru, be ready to burn, a good 25mins, along with a good bit of fuel hoping this time they get the order correct. Its just NOT worth the hassle, trust me!.

I was in the Wendys located on Third StreetChattanooga TN 37404 about 35 minutes ago , drive-thru was rapped around the building so after
waiting in line 12 minutes I decided to go in and from there I was greeted the young lady took my order in a timely manner and I got my food
II only live 5 minutes away from the business I got home and sorry to say but I wouldn't have given my food to the dog next door. I ordered a
number ten combo large with an additional 10 piece nugget. Neither the fries nor nuggets were fresh it is late now and I could't turn back around to take the food back and get fresh food. I am very disappointed. I hope in that in the future I could get fresh food they should give customers food that they would eat fresh !! not old food I would like to talk to the store manager to see if it is possible to get my order replaced with fresh food

please tell the manager to give me a call at 423 827-2535
thanks for liistening to my concern

20

the food was way below average very poor felt like I was cheated

20

i tried to order twice!!! the clerk was no where to be found so i waited ten minutes. i approached the register again after those ten minutes and yet no one tried to help me! michael i believe is to be the guy who was supposed to be helping me out turned out to be outside making "a deal" with someone in a car. this happened on the wendys at sring valley and north tollway!
will never be back here1 i work a few blocks away and will usually coomein here for a meal or tow a week! that is no more!!
store number is 5215

My son and I went to the Wendy’s in Destin Florida, where we live. The drive thru line was full, but we had about 30 minutes before we had to be out of there. We were in line behind 4 cars. We sat, inching, for 20 minutes and there was still 1 car in front of us that hadn’t even ordered yet. We couldn’t take the chance so we had to leave. It was not unusually crowded, which is why we opted for the drive-thru. This seems to be a pattern for this store. We have a very heavy tourist season, but they are just as bad during the off season. I don’t know if it’s staff or management, or both, but we rarely go because of the service. We then went to the Wendy’s in Niceville, Florida and sat in the drive-thru with 3 cars ahead of us. It was amazing, we only sat for about 5 minutes! This store is only 30 minutes away, and also deals with a heavy flow of tourists. Whatever the problem is, it desperately needs to be addressed.

20

I went in the wendys in Farmington Utah for lunch the boy behind the register walk away with his back to me ignoring me for 5 minutes so I walked out of wendys I have never seen customer service this bad I work for the city of farmington and would the like the convenience of getting a quick burger for lunch but after this experience I will not be going to this location again thanks

20

The cashier didn’t even know what we ordered. The chili was cold. It took 7 minutes in the Sri e thru to get our food. You company is heading down hill. Your customer service at the restaurants sucks.

Hello, my name is Jason Cowsert and 2 nights ago I went through the drive thru at the Orlando Florida SeaWorld location, I believe store number 5219. When I got home we realized the burger in the combo we received was incorrect. So I called the number on the receipt, explained what happened, and was told to come back the next evening and I'd get 50% off my order. She only asked for my first name and never told me hers.
So last night I went back and was told to pull up to the window. I pulled up and the girl running the window was yelling and cussing at another employee with the window wide open, I explained what had happened and as I expected no one had any idea what I was talking about. A female employee called the manager at the time who looked like he was maybe 22 and I told him what happened, he then disappeared for roughly 10 minutes. As did everyone else. Finally when yet another employee came to the window I explained it again to her, she then turned around and started talking in Spanish to another girl and the manager. They then said there was nothing they could do. I then asked for the corporate office number and was told to look it up myself. I asked for the store number to which I was told they didn't have one. I asked for a receipt since all the information is on it to which I was told no. They once again had a three way conversation in Spanish so I couldn't understand them. I ended up at the window for over 20 minutes blocking the people behind me.
Absolutely nothing was done, the employees were extremely rude and dismissive, they didn't want to help me at all, and then tried pretending they had zero information on how I could contact anyone else. The wouldn't give me any reference names, I just know the manager was male Hispanic with a curly fo hawk styled haircut and gauges in his earlobes. The drive thru girl was a larger African American who just kept talking about her break. And two younger Hispanic girls one with reddish hair.
I love Wendy's but will definitely never go there again to that location. I'll also be informing all of my coworkers at Disney and Universal to avoid that location. They have a history of rudeness as well as unclean dining space. I'm not sure anyone will even read this, but I'll copy and paste until someone responds.
Thank you.

I went to the Wendy's on 501 in Conway South Carolina all I had is $100 bill they asked me to go get changed and come back and place my order because they didn't have change all I was trying to do is feed my family and I'm quite upset and offended

20

my daughter and I stopped at the Wendy's at 1905 E 21st,. st Tulsa OK 74114. it's by her house I have never gotten such a messed up order. EVER. I ordered a Crispy chicken, single Dave's with no pickles 2 small chocolate frostys and water.
the beverages were o k but I got a large fry (or some kind of fry) and a breaded chicken that was too spicy for me. talk about upset. my daughter wouldn't eat. I usually don't eat fries but I did this one and I had to chop off all the breading and it was still to hot.

I got the right ticket but not the right food. aren't your people trained to check it out? the car in front of me had a problem and got her money back because she refused the drink.

I should have taken the hint and che4cked mine but there were a bunch of cars in back of me.

another Wendy's had problems with their Frosty machine. why do you think people like Wendy's? THE FROSTIES.

please get your act together.

20

I stopped in to grab dinner to go. But when I got home, my order had been messed up. It wasn’t convenient to drive all the way back, so I just ate what they gave me.

I ordered a double bacon s’awesome burger without a bun. However, somehow they forgot:
The s’awesome sauce, the pickle, the bacon, and the onion.

Essentially, I received a double cheeseburger. Not too happy to say the least.

20

Took for ever to get my food when i did it was cold and nasty. no one seem to know what was going on. the manager was drunk all you could smell was the alcohol her eyes was red . and she was moving slow the other co workers looked like they knew more then her. this place is a big joke please do not contact me back im going to call the news or something to see what i can do about this.

20

My family and I are regular customers at the Wendy’s located in Rockingham, NC. For the last few months we have observed a continuous decline in the quality of service at this location particularly during the late afternoon or evening hours of operation. Within the last two weeks this location has been out of: large Chili Cups, ice for soft drinks, ingredients for various items on the menu, catsup, Frostys, soft drink cups, and napkins. The quality of service is poor. The manager on duty last evening allowed the service line to backup. The one server was tremendously slow taking orders. the ice machine was out of order and the Chocolate Frosty machine was down. Several customers left before being served and at least two customers cancelled their orders after learning that ice was unavailable. Many people visit this location after evening worship services on Sunday evening and find the store understaffed to handle the volume of business. It is obvious to me that the manager on duty is not up to the job. This would be a great location to send an undercover boss to personally observe the problems at this location.

20

My family & I tryed to go out for dinner in your Ironton, Ohio Wendy's tonight. This place was so dirty and so nasty PLUS we witnessed a drug deal in the parking lot, plus they are letting young teenagers hang out there going in and out of the building and they are screaming & cussing each other inside the restaurant, throwing furniture around, going out the door throwing the door back far enough to brake standing around and hanging outside. My family & I will NEVER in a million years eat at this location ever again, I will drive a million miles away before eating there ever again. Thee only thing good about this place was the people who worked there. Something needs to be done about this place someone needs to take control of this place fast before it loses all of its customers! Does no one have family values anymore?

80

2 days in a row we went through the same Wendy's and when we got home a small chili was not in our order. Sore # 8221 time 9:03 p.m. on 3/28/19 this store also as a problem with the ink for printing out their receipts I can't see all the information so the time off by a few min.

20

West 10th street Indianapolis Wednesday March 27 waited 3 to 4 minutes at the counter for an employee to inform me that the restaurant was unable to serve food account of computer had crashed. Previous time I visited this restaurant, early fall of 2018l, upon giving my order, was informed drink machine was broken. no one knew how to repair it. I do not anticipate another visit to this particular restaurant.

20

On Sunday, 3/24/19 I drove 700 miles from Cincinnati, OH to Brooklyn, NY to visit family, with three young children. My youngest child who is 3 years old will only eat chicken nuggets, so I decided to drive-thru Wendy's (505 Utica Ave.). I pulled up to the Drive-Thru at 7:45PM (there were 2 cars ahead of me). My order was placed at approximately 8:25PM. I pulled up to the cashier's window at approximately 8:30PM. At this time I paid over $24 for my order and they gave me all of my drinks and a salad. I was still waiting for nuggets and 3 other meals. At 9:05PM they handed me the remainder of my order and I asked what was going on with the long wait and the gentleman at the window said they were short-handed. The only reason I did not leave is because it was getting late and at this point I had 3 starving kids in the car and did not want to make a scene. This was supposed to be fast-food. This was the worst service I've experienced in my 49 years of life. It is unacceptable and the manager should be reprimanded for allowing customers to wait over one hour for "Fast-food". I will continue to reporting this incident via phone and writing other entities about how I was treated. The cashier did not apologize for the wait or offer to give my money back! I am shocked and appalled by the lack of empathy and customer service from Wendy's.

20

bad service

20

I ordered a meal with bacon (I think #4) with baked potato and iced tea. I received a regular hamburger, the iced tea had zero ice, and I did not get cutlery. I also did not receive the receipt so I don't know if I was charged for the more expensive #4 or not. I almost never go to Wendy's even though I really like the food. This is why. This meal was very disappointing.

20

Today, March 27, 2019, my husband and I stopped at Wendy's at 9401 Annapolis Road, Lanham, MD. The telephone number is 301-731-5681. Each time I tried to call, the line was busy. I have never tasted food from Wendy's this bad. All the food tastes like it was cooked in "old" oil that needs to be changed. I never want to visit this Wendy's again. We spent $8.48, which is not much, but I feel like I threw the money away. I will keep my receipt to remind me not to come back. I cannot say thank you for your service because I would be lying. There is a number, 20164 on the receipt. I do not know if that is the order number. Something needs to be done to address the way the food is cooked at this Wendys. We also did not dine in, but the receipt has "DINE IN" on it. I am very disappointed. E. Pratt

This was my worst experience yet with the Wendy's at 811 Youngs St. Tonawanda NY. I like Wendy's restaurants, but this one must have bad owners and bad managers. I say this because I have gone to this location for at least 30 years and 90% of the time something goes wrong. Not always crucial, but not accurate. This leads me to believe that this problem is bad owners that do not train the managers properly. This most recent experience I had was Saturday 3/23/2019 at 9:37pm(I have the receipt). I came inside to order because the drive thru does not work out for multiple orders as I had my family with me (two children under 6 years of age, Grandma, my wife and myself). I ordered to go, while the family waited in the van. While other people came in and ordered after me they all left before me (they were also very dissatisfied, checking there own orders because of multiple mistakes). We finally received our order around 10:15pm. After apologizing and assuring me the order was correct for the very long wait, it was not correct (missing sandwich food and cold sub par quality). We were already home at this time. This always seems to happen after 7pm and this has been going on for too many YEARS.

20

I was at the Franklin Mass Wendy's receiving a order and an employee throw a full cup of cherry coke on me through the service window and then procced to laugh in my face.

80

Went through the drive thru and when I got home order wasn't complete. Missing from my taco salad was the tortilla chips. Wendy's #8221
Date 3/27 time 1:00 p.m.

20

all wendys have been good except the one on veterans dr in columbus, GA. They make wendy's look like a ghetto restaurent!!! you wait 10 minutes in the drive thru and they act like you've interrupted them, they walk around at p/u window with frowns, don't even say come back or good-by. one night after waiting at drive up i went inside just to be greeted by attitude, ordered a salad and after 10 min later she came back stating she had to make the salad when they are ordered, when i got home to eat it the chili was ice cold. if this was 1st wendy i went to, i would never go to any of them and tell friends not to either. however this is only bad one. you need to fire everyone at this one and get staff that cares

20

I ordered dinner at one of your locations 623 E. Market Street Akron Ohio 44304 and in the middle of my chili I found what appears to be a yellow jellowy-like substance, photo attached. It made me vomit into my serving tray.
I went to the counter and asked for the Manager. He came over and I asked him what this in their chili?
He said that he did not know what this was, took it and threw it in the trash.
He did not offer to reimburse me or anything.
He just walked away. That is entirely unprofessional. There was a substance that no one knew its origin in a chili served to the public.
I have a receipt attached also for your review and confirmation that I purchased this at one of your locations.
I left the store, very upset. I have been going to Wendy's for over thirty years but I doubt if I ever go there again.

20

Got disgusting old chicken sandwich, ordered bbq cheeseburger meal and got plain cheeseburger, paid for frosty and then got told it wasnt working

20

I ordered a bacon stir from Wendy’s on DoorDash without a bun it costs me 11 dollars to get and this is what a got. A dry burger with two small drops of mayo and a half piece of bacon. 11 dollars for this you should be ashamed of yourself. I will never eat Wendy’s again in fact I’m posting this on all my social media.

20

We stopped at the Wendy's on 2948 Miamisburg Centerville Rd in Dayton Ohio a little before 4:00 pm on 3/24/19. There were several people in front of us and they eventually left the restaurant because they were not being waited on or their orders were wrong. Our order was rung up incorrectly after we waited at least 10 minutes to be waited on. It took us over 30 minutes to get our meal--and it still wasn't correct. The pop machine was not working, there were no straws or ketchup available, and the tables and the room were dirty and not picked up. When we left there were at least 10 cars at the drive-through. I will never stop at this location again. The help was rude and indifferent.

20

The food was terrible and cold and we waited forever to get it. The manager was terrible and the place was Dirty

we went to the store on zelda rd in montgomery,al on march 22,2019. we ordered our food from drive thru, the order was 2 singles with cheese and a 6pc chicken tender. once at the window we were told to pull up they had to cook our 6pc chicken tenders which took at least 20mins. when we made it home to eat we live about 5mins from wendy's, we sat down to eat the singles were cold the brread was thick crumbly and stale. beef tasted old, i feel like we wasted 8.00. can someone please refund my money or send some certificates or even coupons, please. thank you in advance for your help.

20

Really poor customer service. Co-workers talking loudly about other customers. Fooling around with each other while we were waiting for our food. Drive thru window was wide open for bugs, birds etc to come in( we were to proceed to the 2nd window to pay and get food. Salad was tasting rotten and when I asked for a receipt, was told it was broken..horrible experience

20

I have had a issue since back in December 2018 until now. I called and told the manager about it at that time and they said something would be sent out to me by mail. Then I thought about it again in March, because nothing had arrived so I called a manager again for them to tell me something will be sent in the mail. I still never got this issue resolved and I also sent a email like this once and got no feedback. What I had ordered at the time was the 4 dollar deal. 2 of those one for me and one for my daughter. I dont know if they were real busy that day seeing it was in December and the hustle/bustle of things. Just trying to see if things could be taken care of. My group had a get together there and that all went fine. We dined in. Just have seen no results for this situation.

20

I love Wendy's food; my favorite "go to" for fast food. And, in general - Customer Service is better than most fast food restaurants in the area. Lent means the cod fish sandwich; which is the best of fast food fish sandwiches. Herein lies the problem, three (3) times in the past ten (10) days, at three (3) different locations; two (2) cities: New Orleans and Baton Rouge, I've placed an order for the fish sandwich and have requested and paid for cheese. Three (3) times - YES; ALL THREE (3) TIMES - there is no cheese on my sandwich!!!! If this is Wendy's cost saving tactic, it may work well in the short run, although it's a good way to lose customers for good.

Employee Ariyonna at Store #1001 refuses to wait on or serve law enforcement in uniform
Manager let employee of duty brush his hair at counter
Manager let Ariyonna yell at her talk back to her in front of us Manager would not acknowledge customers Terrible
I am at lunch trying to eat I couldn’t even place order
We are Law Enforcement we have no sit down lunch we eat on the run
Another person had to take our order
She threw my food on the counter and gave me crappy French fries
She should not be in customer service
She needs to get past her bias attitude if she wants to work at Wendy’s
I am sure Dave God Bless Him would never have tolerated this

Not so much a complaint as just observations.Nice try Wendy's. We went last night. First we order Give the young girl a 50 for a 17.28 meal ( overpriced if you ask me) she had to get a manager to open the cash drawer Red flag. I asked why she had to do that , she said anything over $40.00 she was required to. So She hands me my change I had it figured already. Sure enough she gave me $38.72. I walked back and gave her the extra dollar. Kinda long but funny. So we were told it would be 4.5 mins to cook (nice of them) to tell us. Ok no big deal. Our # was 2. next we find out the register dosen't automatically advance the #'s and there were 2 # 2's and or food was given opened and returned by the only other people in the place. Wait there's more: Ok no big deal but another 4.5 mins to cook. So the girl that can't subtract comes out with our food sure enough it's all wrong. I show her my ticket and she looks at me like I'm stupid. So another 4.5 mins to cook our food. Now the soda machine. Not only is it a touch screen that everyone has to touch to get there product even those that have just touched there junk and not washed their hands. But I go through all 4 screens several times to find out the 2 I want are not available at this time? Root bear and Power aid. All and all it was amusing. The food was good we got to visit for a while so hats off to you Wendy's, one other thing they just remodeled and the place looks good and clean. However they are going to need some kind of window coverings on the 10 foot tall windows this is Nm people, and the sun was already making it really uncomfortable and it's only March! Food was as expected people were nice. Clovis nm store 88101

The service was slow the food was cold the drank co was not properly regulated for the first time I was not a satisfied customer if you would like you can call me at7572749529
I have eaten at this location before and the food was great and so was the service

I don't have a complaint.

After buying 2 Frosties at the drive up in Biddeford Maine Wendy's, I moved ahead so as to not block the window, and wrestled my Frosties into a bag I'd asked for. It took about a minute, and then I secured the bag inside my carry-bag making sure they would't fall off my car seat. When I got done fooling around with all that, I looked up and was startled to see a slender little girl - an employee - standing patiently in the rain beside my car WITH MY CREDIT CARD AND RECEIPT, which I was about to drive away without. I don't know her name, but the transaction was done on 3/22/19 at 4:37 PM. The host, was Kimberly, and the cashier was Cassidy, but I don't know who the girl was who happens to be the hero of my day. I would so like to see her commended. Losing a credit card is a HUGE pain!

Why don't you have a place to feedback praise for over the top good work? Sincerely, Bonnie Schramm.

We just ordered from there and everything was wrong. None of the sandwiches were the way we ordered. They didn't give us a kids toy and they didn't give me my baked potato. We waited for ever on the food. There was only one girl working the whole store while the manager was in the bathroom!?! I will never go back!

20

I was in the drive through line for 20 minutes today at 2:00pm 3/22/2019. Nothing was offered for an explaination. When I asked the manager said the cars in front had large orders of chicken nuggets. I know you can cook more than one order at a time and they do not take longer than 5 minutes!! I asked why they did not park the cars a head if me manager said, they were there first we we're waiting in product. Worst service in the afternoon I have ever seen. This is NOT the Old Fashioned Hamburger joint I use to work at!!

20

The first time my wife and I had a cod fish sandwich we had them all through Kent and enjoyed them. That was your restaurant in Hyannis. We have seen a much small and heavily crusted cod fish sandwich. Why have you cheapen this product. Respectfully Submitted,Donald Dompierre

On 3/21 9 55pm I visited Wendy’s 2281 W, Florida-834 Pompano Beach Florida 33073. I had a horrible experience at the drive through. The associate that was working says welcome to “Wendy’s what you want”. So I said excuse me she said what you want. I’m like I don’t feel welcome why you sound like that I work overnight 12 hours. I understand your tired and may want to go home but that’s not how you greet valuable customers that keep the business going. She said the value for what your buying can’t even pay me. Then she said you know what I’m going to let some one else take your order. The manager greeted me well and I said to her that sound like someone who wants to work. In the background I heard a loud obnoxious laughter and then she said that homosexual better going somewhere else because I will spit in this wrap. So I said the the manager to tell that “word outside of her name to go home” At that point I definitely didn’t want to proceed but I drove to the window to get names. When I got there the manager said Oh can’t take your payment or honor any service to you because you called my employee outside of her name. Reluctant and blatantly said she won’t give name with all name tags off. I said to her in the background I heard everything she said so what do you plan to do about that. She said I will handle her and then two person joined her at the window possible the girl and another associate one of them saying Let me see Who this is. One walked back and said oh get him together let him know we all from the same place so we stick together. This is a horrible store and They are chasing away customers and making the fast food industry look bad and Delfinately making Wendy look bad. The manager said she will handle her yet she was laughing with her and at me being very discriminating so let me see what corporate will do. As I will take my homosexual money somewhere else.

20

We waited in line in the restaurant just to order for 20 minutes. Then when I went to order potato they were out of potatoes. No apology or nothing just that they didn’t have potatoes!!!
My rate is a 1!!! Service was not good!

20

Was waiting in line to place a lunch order and receive my order for over 20 minutes. There was only 3 people ahead of us. The employees
were fooling around. When I complained and my friend did as well the women who usually works the drive thru window started mouthing off
at us like we didn't have the right too. Then the shift manager who may have less class than the other girl was worse. I worked as a manager
for Pizza Hut for 10 yrs and never saw anything like this. They didn't include a receipt knowing that we probable would complain. This was the
store on Mac Dade blvd in Ridley Pa

100

Food is always great and people are good. My complaint is about the store in Urbana, Ill on Prospect Ave.. Your manager and zone manager should be ashamed, the parking lot is full of holes big enough to wreck the front end of a car and not just in one area, it's the whole lot. I won't be back till it's fixed. Don't have any photos of me, doing nothing or I would send one.

Thank You

Ordered a spicy chicken salad told them I wanted pecans instead of croutons she said no substitutes and charged me .50 for the pecans the week before they forgot my salad dressing in drive thru

20

I already posted my rant and rave on my Facebook but I figure nothing will change unless Wendy’s is contacted directly. Had I gotten a receipt I’m sure there would have been a number on the back I could have called. My local Wendy’s has the worst customer satisfaction I’ve ever experienced and it’s every time. Apparently, I’m not the only one because many others also left their comments on my post about their negative visits at the same location. I’m not kidding when I say every time I pull through that drive through it’s as if I’m an inconvenience to the workers. My order is never right or complete. Basic things like utensils..... yesterday I ordered a salad, 2 chili’s, baked potato and nuggets. There wasn’t a single fork, spoon, butter, salad dressing, and they were out of sour cream! I had to call the lady back to the window twice to request everything and she responded as if she was bothered or annoyed by my request. I’d normally just let it go but because this is every time over the last 5 years or so I just can’t take it anymore. Sure I could find a new location I suppose, but this is the most convenient and the most slow. I just had to share my frustrations because it’s not right and I don’t think that’s the kind of legacy Dave Thomas wanted to leave behind.

20

I dined in at Wendy's on March 18, 2019 @ 1:01 pm. I prefer the biggie bag. On my burger I asked for no onion as I'm allergic. They put onion anyway. When I took it back to the counter they took the onion off right in front of me and handed the burger back. My fries were cold and so where my nuggets. I left it at the counter and asked for my money back. They would not refund me. I was very unhappy. I have not eaten at Wendy's and decided to go for my lunch hour. I will not be visiting your restaurant again.

20

Wendy’s on Broad Street across from town and country have some of the rudest employees, The manager was just nasty and not a nice person! Wanted to argue and just not own the fact that they messed up....just make it right and let’s move on!

I go to the Wendy's in Clarksville Tn ,on Tinytown road, to order lunch on 3/16/2019 around 2pm, I order the awesome sauce burger combo #4 and i told them no pickle or tomato. I also ordered my wife the number one no pickle or ketchup. On my combo the number 4 all that was on my burger was onion , sauce and hamburger meat. My wives combo was drowned in ketchup, after I drove all the way home to eat it I seen this and didnt have a dam receipt. My wife calls and they tell her they have to have a receipt. What a dang waste of almost 18.00 on two meals and it wasnt our fault we didnt get a receipt . This is two times we have ate at this location in the last month and this time was by far the worse. THe first time the meat wasnt done and the sad part me and my family loves Wendys but I guess since this place offeres poor service we will have to go else where.

20

Every night at the Anvilblock location in Ellenwood, Georgia, there is a long line and long wait. The cars are at a standstill. This has taken place night after night around 10pm. I like Wendy's but I end up getting out of line after 20 or 30 minutes when the line is at a stand still. Please FIX THIS PROBLEM!!!!!

20

I was waiting in Drive Thru waited 2minutes for someone to take order when they did woman said get back with me. Then I could hear her talking to other co workers about specifics of the job at Wendy’s, then she answered a phone call or talked to someone in walk-in dining she kept on and on finally I left cause was die at work. I give no stars to Wendy’s at broads st / Tuckernuck Richmond Va all I wanted was a Wendy’s burger befor my shift started.

20

We just ate lunch at Wendy's in Wake Forest, NC on Capital Blvd. and Wake Union Church Road. It was just filthy! The place where the orders are taken had not been cleaned lately, as well as the area behind the counter. Looking into the food prep area had not been cleaned in eons. An ice cream dispenser looked out of order, not fixed and dirty. In past years I have never encountered anything like this at a Wendy's restaurant. I was told the manager of the day was Chris. If this was owned and had my name attached I would fire all workers and start over. I can't imagine how dirty the food is if they cannot even clean their work areas. I saw a lot of standing around but no one was industrious and cleaning or doing anything productive. AND they were not swamped with customers!!! How do you continue to stay in business if you run your restaurants like this one? When Dave was alive this did not happen. I am VERY disappointed in the eatery!! Not sure if I will ever go to another Wendy's again. Do you ever send corporate to check out these places??? I will be interested to see if I get a reply from you. Thank you, Brenda Solomon

20

Found this in our daughter 4 for $4 yesterday. She was grossed out and didn't want to eat. Wendy's is her favorite place and we have never had problems. Please get it together.

20

Ordered a pecan chicken salad- no chicken, no pecans, no feta cheese. Ordered an avacado salad-no avacado. Nothing in it but lettuce, cheese, and tomato bits. Too far to drive to take it back. What’s up? Usually your salads are great. Pleas respond.

20

The night assignt manager Named Estebone, cussing at other co worker, threating other co work in presence of customer, flirting with minor kids and co worker. saw him once handing something out of the drive threw windows and wasnt a wendy bag. my son worked there and he said he used to close at night and estevon would void stuff and take the money and he would take off to take some girl home while he is on the clock this is Wendys in Goldsboro Nc on Wayne Memorial Drive. My son finally quit he also said his friend was given a pill that got her high and very sexual and that her and estebone went out to a bar. i wont be coming back to wendys unless this is delt with i live not that far from this store

20

I use to use the Wendys app on my phone for special offers but it no longer works. I called the customer service number and they said the new app will not work on my phone because the new app uses 5. Well I have a Samsung Mini4 smart phone which is a few years old. I am 71 years old and I do not plan to buy $1000.00 new smart phone to use the Wendys app which requires the new 5. I know Tvs are going 5g in the future but I guess Wendys is so advanced that it is using 5g now. I go to Wendys everyday for lunch and have for the past 14 years. I think this new 5app is ridiculous and the idiot who designed should be fired. I am sure many old people like myself do not have new 5app phones. You are at better at burgers than you are at apps. Horrible service! I would rate your app 0 stars if I could.

20

I wish I cld have given them zero stars. Wendy's on Chuck Dawley Rd in Mt Pleasant SC is the most unprofessional experience I've ever had at any Wendy's. A vehicle sat in front of me for all of 10 min so I went around them to see if the restaurant was open. There was a car sitting at the drive thru window forever. So I waited behind it and the car that was in front of me drove off. The woman at the window was rude and extremely unprofessional. They said they were outta sweet tea, chocolate chip cookies and then burgers. Then they took first to bring us our food. NEVER AGAIN!!

20

I ordered 2 spicy chicken wraps a small chocolate sunday and a medium Coke Zero
When my order was complete I asked for 2 barbecue sauce packs
I was told that it would cost me .30 each.
I think this is outrageous and will not spend my money in your establishments unless you change your policy.

20

ive already sent my complaint to you twice about wendys in kings mtn n.c. 28086 about the mgr alex being rude and hateful to me and wanted to know whats been done about it.

20

Purchased a Dave’s double large combo. Food was cold. Fries were greasy and cold. Very disappointed. No stars. Want my money back and my appetite too!

20

I tried your new cod fish sandwich today and was very disappointed. Have always thought Wendys food was very good, but this sandwich didn't measure up to your standards. There was more coating on the fish than there was fish. Also the batter was hard and caked up on part of the pattie. I will not be having anymore of the fish, I'm sure that others will find the same if all the cod is prepared like the one i had today.

Thank you

20

Giant JBC. had what appears to be one piece of bacon broken into six small pieces on it in total. Add says double the bacon. Also store employee would only wait on one customer at a time getting them their food before waiting on next customer. There was a long line and my fast food took 25 minutes to get when I was 4 th in line. Counter person said manager won’t allow them to take more than one order at a time.

20

I got a quarter pound single and asked for it without certain condiments in Oskaloosa, Iowa. First, the speaker was so bad, making scratching noises. And the worker at the window was talking to the person at the pick-up window while she was talking to me. That's very irritating. Then when I got up there to the pick-up window, even though I had repeated 3 times what condiments I didn't want on my sandwich, she had to ask me again and turned around to tell the person. I think they just took a sandwich that had been in a warmer and took the stuff off because it wasn't wrapped up nice and tight, the sandwich was not hot, and the top of the bun was so dried out that it made a popping noise when I bit into it.

20

I ordered 2 $4 meals Jr bacon cheeseburger chicken sandwich and fries. Once I received my order , I checked and realized both orders were missing the chicken sandwich. It was lunchtime so I had to get out my car and go inside. Once I spoke to Manager explained my order, she still refused to give me what I was missing. She said everyone here has head sets on and that's what your husband ordered. I was in the car I know what he ordered. The window team member did not give me a receipt. They never do. Manager did not give me what I was missing. So I would like some compensation for this. Or something....

20

Not a complaint as much as a tip for one of your units. I spent 21 years in the restaurant industry in management and middle management. I realize the importance of building sales in order to cover expenses and hopefully build profits. Your restaurant in Lansing just off I96 and MLK and Bishop Rd. has a problem. with PM sales.
I drive pass this unit each week night on my way home from work. Once in a rare while will the sign be turned on to attract business driving by. This sign needs to be on before it gets dark outside. This is a highway restaurant that could pull in MORE business if only people knew where the restaurant is located. This was a peeve of mine when I was a unit manager and a district supervisor of a different chain.
I believe that if this problem would be corrected you would see sales improvements immediately.

Sincerely,
A Concerned Citizen

I Made an order through drive thru at the eagle co Wendy's on March 8th and when I arrived at the pick up window I saw two females horse playing (physically hitting each other.) And being loud. And my order was not made properly. The burger was messy, the fries were cold and it wasnt wrapped properly.

20

Went to Wendy's #264 at 3422 Taylor Blvd Louisville KY. Got order along with a lemonade. After I drove off, I took a drink. It tasted like some type of cleaner was in it. It smelled almost like alcohol. I went back to the store and the manager Tim acted like he did not believe me. I asked him to smell it, and he refused. I told him that I wanted my money back but he said no since I had said the f word to him. He said get the money from corporate. I warned the manager that the machine may need to be drained and cleaned. I called the corporate headquarters about 2 hours ago, no followup yet. I called the health department and tried to file a police report to no avail. I felt slightly dizzy from the drink and still have the drink with me.

20

I went to the Wendy's out in Granville, Ohio on Cherry Valley Rd last night to pick up dinner for my husband and myself. I usually don't have any problems at that Wendy's as that is the reason that I continue to go back there. Last night was a different story. I am usually not one to complain but the girl that was taking orders at the drive thru window ( her name was Paige) Well when I pulled up to give my order I kindly ask if she could give me just a minute and she did not say anything, I repeated myself as I know that she heard me because I could hear her breathing. I said hello, can you please give me a minute to look at the menu and she shouted YES very loudly. It was just rude. I then gave my order and ask her to repeat it back to me so that I knew everything was correct and she acted like that was a bother. I have never been treated so badly at Wendys. then I pull up to the window to pay her and just her whole attitude with me was very rude. She did not even say thank you, handed me my debit card and quickly walked away. I knocked on the window and said ma'am can you please give me your name and she asked why. No name tag and she finally told me her name. I said thank you and pulled away. I work for Licking Memorial Hospital and if I treated our patients the way that she treated me, I would be fired. I am not trying to get this girl fired by no means but she really has no business working in customer service. She should be back flipping hamburgers as far as I am concerned. It was just a bad experience and I will not be going back to that Wendy's nor will I recommend anyone else go to that one for the way I was treated. The guy working at the food window was very polite and I appreciate his politeness but Paige was very rude. Thank you for taking your time to listen to my experience.

Thank you,
Lee Ann Webb

The first time I experienced bad quality was when I got a frosty I opened it to lick the lid and I saw little black things It was either hair or fiber. Today I went back cause I thought it was a one time thing turns out a long strand of hair appears when I open the lid and last time I went I went back to get another it appeared again I am disgusted with it someone needs to shut the machine down ill further notice.

20

I ordered a Dave's single hamburger. I got my order and went home to eat. My order was wrapped with a hamburger wrapper. But inside was a chicken sandwich that I did NOT order. And it's cold! It's not rocket science! The store was in Athol MA. So in future I will have to unwrap my order in the store to see it I am given the right order. On second thought I will just stop going there. Too much trouble to get the right order. Your service is a total failure!

20

Tuesday March 5 2019 @ 1:30 or so, I visited a wendy's located on Cassidy ave near Airport Rd. I ordered a $5.00 burger and chicken deal with a small frosty. I gave the girl at the register a $ 20.00 bill. my change was supposed to be $13.94. in a rush to get back to work, I pushed the change into my pocket, grabbed my order and went back to. once at work, I counted my change and found I had been shorted by $ 5.00. I did not have the time to go back to dispute this nor could I prove this after leaving. This was the only time I have ever been in that store. this could have been a mistake but after talking to my co-workers, this goes on at that location. this happened to two of my co-workers last month on different dates.
I am not looking for reimbursement as I don't have any proof but I will not visit that store again. If this is an example of the type employee Wendy's hires, I will not be visiting any Wendy's ever. I will not go out of my to bad mouth your brand but I will tell my story to all workers on every job site I am on. I work construction and I contact a lot of people every day.

20

I went into Wendy's with my mom to get food for dinner and the lady did not know what she was doing when she took our order I wanted a crispy chicken and got a chicken BLT.... I can not stand cheese or bacon on my sandwiches...which is why I ordered a crispy chicken... not to mention they put the food on a tray when when we ordered To go and kept switching the food from bag to bag repeatedly touching the food with there bare hands.. the food was cold and disgusting...and they gave us kids cups we ordered a small 4 for 4 so we expected small cups not kids.... and we know they was kids cups because my mom had stopped at a different Wendy's with my brother so he could get something to eat before he went to work... see the difference between my cup and my brothers? This was at the cambridge Ohio restaurant on southgate between the car wash and subway....

20

?artinsburg wv 25425 fox croft ave my husband myself 2 childern walked in this restraunt to eat we had to turn around at door and leave the sewer smell is so bad my husband got sick we love your food please correct this problem or ull loose all costumers at this store to be excat there was no one in this store it was dead and if you smell it y ou know y thank you

20

So, I work at the Wendy's in St. Robert Mo and I worked for 11 hours or more in 2 weeks and I'm pregnant so that part is understandable but I worked for 11 hours and I only got $56.00 on my check when I should have gotten more and it has me really angry I should of gotten at l eww at a little over $100 and I was supposed to go see my sick grandmother today but because of them I cant and I'm struggling with bis as well so that money would have helped wonders

20

We were asked last year to buy Wendys' key tags for $2.00 each to help out Dave's kids. We were told that you will get a free frosty for one year. Nothing was said about buying anything but I did ask if we bought two tags can we still get two free frosties when we buy One of the 4 for $4. We were told yes that it wouldn't be any problem. For the past 2months we have been purchasing 1-4 for $4 and getting two free frosties but as of today now we were told we had to start buying something extra to get the second free frosty. I don't feel that changing policies in mid stream is fair to the ones who have getting their orders as we have. For granted $4.36 isn't much to spend in a day for a lunch that my husband and I split but when you times that by a whole year just think how much is being spent at your store. So as of today we will never purchase any more of your key tags. If I could I would send both of them back for a refund and never buy anything else from any of your stores. Go ahead and laugh as I know that you probably are but times $4.36 by a whole year and see what one of your stores have lost.

20

Ordered a mushroom swiss and got a dry dry overcooked with no mushrooms very very very thin swiss, 3 little pieces of onion, and I asked for no peppers, and guess what, they took them off and the juice wss still there. I watch the commercial on TV and what I received was awfully. I am disabled and look forward to a good meal. Wendy's should be ashamed.

20

I will no longer be going to the Wendy’s is pleasant hills Pa. Every time I go there my order is wrong. I don’t know how hard it is to do their job right. That Wendy’s is the worst. Service is BAD. I was sort a drink and fries this time. This is at least the 10th time this has happened. I shouldn’t have to wait 45 minutes Inline when there is only 6 cars total. The people working the window have attitude problems.

20

Restaurant was not attentive to cleanliness and was discouraged to find out they no longer have plastic knife utensils.At restaurant on Ford Road 18430 #00001229

If I could give them a 0 I would. My mom ordered $30 worth of food and didn’t receive any of it. We ordered via door dash. The driver went MIA with the food and her tip. When I called the Wendy’s it came from the manager was extremely rude, aggressive and very unprofessional. He told me they don’t work with DoorDash and I’m mistaken. I spoke to a manager from doordash and she was unable to get a hold of the driver and could not understand why the manager would claim that they don’t work with door dash. She even took their phone number to make sure I called the right location and it was. Your manager lied to me. I am a manager in retail and I have come across situations at my job. And the way this manager at your Wendy’s handled it was uncalled for. This is our local Wendy’s and they not only lost our business but they better believe we will be spreading the word In our neighborhood.the location was Wendy's
