Drive thru service.
We were at the drive thru at 9:30 pm in Ferdinand, IN. The dining area was closed and the door showed hours to be until 10 pm We waited for 1 hr and 15 minutes before receiving our food. We had 6 hungry kids from ages 6-12 after a fun filled day at Holiday world. Once we finally got our food, the food was disgusting. Also, the Wendy’s frosty machine wa...

Hello, today Aug, 5 about 4:15 pm. My children and I went to your location on 6223 W capital drive in Milwaukee. I order a 4 for 4 with a strawberry frosty, a Large fry, small strawberry frosty and a 5 for 5. When I get to the drive thru window the guy at the window was trying to talk to me asking when can he take me out. This the second time I been here and he has done this. My problem comes once I pulled up and checked my order and my large fry wasn’t in the bag. I got in front of a car so I could get to the window. I told the guy I was missing my large fry. He said that it was rang up with my food. Which the order take repeated it. I asked could I just pay for it at the window. I was told no so I asked why should Inhave to go back and wait in a line when I order something that the order taker repeated to me but didn’t ring it up. I give them back the food I had and asked for a refund. Which took longer than just ringing up a large fry. I was asked for the change back so the manager could give me back my $ 20 bill. Instead why not give me what was owned to me the$12.18. I work in food industry and I run a whole store and I could see if I was in the wrong about what I ordered than I would have went back through that line. So my kids had to suffer until we went to another restaurant because your management can’t handle customer the right way.
Desired outcome: Something needs to be done for my inconvenience and the time I wasted.
Drive up window, customer service, bad quality food and drink.
Drive through Wendy’s at 551 Donelson Pike in Tennessee #[protected]. Order number 3527 on 08/04/2023 at 10:37pm 40192. Wendy’s is the only fast food I will eat. The long lines use to be worth the wait! This location had about 7-8 employees inside, everyone laughing, standing around talking. 25 minutes in line with only 6 cars in front of me. First window to...
Read full review of Wendy’s2 for $5.00 as shown on t.v. ads
July 31st stopped in Wendy's off of I90 in Geneva, Ohio around 5:45 p.m.. went thru drive thru and asked first if the 2 for $5.00 deal still on, she said yes. I ordered 2 Dave's singles. Pull up to paying window and she says, " just to let you know it is buy one get one for a $1.00. I said that is not what you told me when I asked about it and that is not what they advertise on t.v.. So I had to pay $6.69 for the two sandwiches. Why advertise 2 for $5.00 and say we have it then change when you go to pay.
Desired outcome: A response to why the workers have know idea what is going on in there store. Why say you have it and don't honor it.
Food
Wendy's has been going downhill for a while but taking off the chicken wrap then putting that nasty thing on it with hard iceberg lettuce was disrespectful and charging $10 real tears came down my face when I took a bite because it was so nasty! On July 12,2023 to order food the app wasn't working so I couldn't even get points and the point system doesn't...

7-25-23 6:30 pm visit. I was only customer in drive thru. Ordered a salad and burger. Told to pull ahead even though no one behind me but I did. Waited 15 minutes and wondered if they forgot about me. Still no one behind me so backed up to window and asked about it. Manager told me it takes 10 minutes to cook the chicken. So, i finally got salad but not the burger. Manager said he wasn't wearing headset so he had no idea what was going on. Got my burger and left. Pulled into a parking spot and found the burger was totally cold. Pulled back around and asked for a replacement or refund. Was told only manager could do that and it would be awhile because he was on the phone with his wife. Waited and waited again. Manager finally came and when I said at this point I would just like a refund or coupon, he told me he was very busy and could do that if I wanted to wait 2-3 hours. I told him that was not acceptable. I did not yell, swear, or anything other than ask questions and for my missing food or refund. He proceeded to tell me he could have me arrested for sitting at the window waiting for my food because it was against the law. I pulled up again but not to his satisfaction. He told me to leave, I said I would but wanted my food I paid for. I told him I would be making a complaint. He said he gets them all the time but corporate won't do anything about it. He decided not to give me the food I was missing so I finally left. He is awful and I won't be going back. I feel bad for the poor workers there as well. He said he would write them up because they told me he was on the phone with his wife. She wasn't being vindictive about it rather, she was just explaining why the hold up with him coming. She was courteous. He was just plain rude and a bully.
Desired outcome: His behavior should be investigated. However, as he insinuated, he doesn't think anything will be done about it so he will probably just continue to act that way. Taken complaints against him seriously!!
New staff, no drugs and drug dealers and respect and professionalism. Not to much to ask for.
Where do we start?. Food is always wrong, when you call or go back in to have it fixed your met with attitude, disrespect, and immature behavior. Not once but three times now in less then two months I have been in this Wendy's. I get home see the food is wrong. Call and they say ok we'll replace it. Go back in to get the replacement order they act like...

Read full review of Wendy’sThe wait and food
It was Friday July 21, 2023 at 9:40 I ordered 2. $5 meal with one of the sandwiches to be plain, I ordered a bacon and cheese baked potato. I sat out in the parking lot because they asked me to pull up as I did and waited 20 mins and then had to go in and see where my food was. I get it after waiting another 5 minutes. My sandwich was full of condiments and the other sandwich had bacon on it which the bacon tasted awful like it had been sitting all day. My baked potato had a big chunk missing out of and my bacon was supposed to be pieces of bacon it was whole bacon and horrible and to top it off the lady at the speaker was rude and wouldn't even let me finish she just kept asking is that all is that it every time I ordered something

Read full review of Wendy’sFormula change / expensive
So, Wendy's was always expensive and the burgers were alright (I always preferred McDonald's in general). And despite that, three things still brought me there. Those three things which differentiated them from their competition? The frosty, their salads, and the French fries that could be dipped in the frosty. Notice two out of three things deal with the frosty.
Those three things made me go there once out of every 3 times for fast food.
Now, however, the frosty tastes like crap and the frosty has been tasting like crap for the past few years. I kept thinking, "oh it's a one off or my taste is off." But after my last meal there, which I had when I was starving... (Everything is supposed to taste better when you are starving) ... I decided to not go back unless there is no other restaurant in the city. Why? Because the frosty tastes like crap. It tastes like a water slushy with chocolate sprinkled in it. I now rank Taco Bell higher than Wendy's. Why? Because they at least still have the same Chalupa and cinnamon twists that I remember from my teenage years over twenty years ago...
Moral of the story? Don't mess with perfection.
Desired outcome: If you can't bring Dave's good old frosty back to life, then at least tell the public what you changed, and please tell us why you changed it to give us closure on this tragedy... We need time to morn and we need closure.
