Wendy’s store #[protected]

The employees of this Wendy's (2031 E Oakland Park Avenue) are extremely hardworking, but their management is a complete joke. They do not train effectively, leaving one young lady asking 3x during our exchange on how to use the register application. I have seen the soda machine broken and spilling water all over the place. Although generally a clean place, I have NEVER been more disgusted with management and specifically JAE Restaurant Group.

Wendy’s baked potatoes

I have my family going to Wendy's because of me. I usually get cheesy baked potatoes with sour cream and butter I hate to complain but now it is a common occurrence. The baked potatoes are either cooked too long or have been sitting and are just warmed up. Out of two, I'm lucky to get enough to equal one. We won't be going to Wendy's for a while. I thought you would want to know. It has been going on for some time.

Wendy’s frosty drinks

I bought 3 vanilla frosty's at their upper james location, using the drive thru. When I got home & we went to eat & drink our stuff, my husband opened his frosty and saw that it was only half full! So we opened the lids on the other 2 frostys to check them, & they were also only half full! This is actually the 2nd time in the last couple of weeks that this has happened. About 2 weeks ago, I went thru the drive thru at this same location, & my frosty was only half way filled then too! I didnt say or do anything about it then, as I figured it was maybe just a "glitch" with their frosty machine. But now that its happened again, & ive now had 4 frostys that were only half full, I want to make a complaint.
Ive attached some pictures & a video of the frostys from this purchase.

Wendy’s given wrong food or not all of the food ordered

Today my husband went to the Wendy's drive thru in Danville, Va on Riverside Drive and placed an order that was for 3 kids and 3 adults. Ordered 2 orders of chicken nuggets and got 1 order of chicken tenders. Ordered 1 chili and got 2, ordered a large fry and got none, ordered a large tea (for husband) and got Coke (which Husband is not supposed to be drinking) and asked for BBQ sauce and got sour cream. I think he has been to that same Wendy's about 4 or 5 times within the past year and when he gets home the order is wrong. He didn't have time to go through the bags as there was a line behind him and being nice he didn't want to hold anyone up. We did not take the order back to them as we had 3 screaming kids demanding food so we had to make do with what we had. Haven't complained until now but, enough is enough. The onions on my Dave's double were so tough you could not chew them. Wendy's has always been our favorite place to eat fast food but, we will be looking at other places in the future. Since I got sour cream I am pretty sure someone else that got a potato didn't get their sour cream. Very bad service!

Wendy’s product

Hello, I had ordered a baked potato for my daughter who is 4 we had ordered the food drive through and did not check the bags which I usually do but this time I was just in a hurry to get home, the customer service we received was pretty great this time but when I got home I was going to serve my daughter the potato, but before I did I noticed the potato was off color. Of course I did not serve it to her instead threw away. I didn't go back because I live on the other side of town.

Wendy’s product-spicy chicken go wrap

Good evening, I don't usually complain I hate to be that person. But I usually check my food before I leave but I didn't because I absolutely waited forever to get it. I was tired and hungry and just wanted to get home. But I'm guessing the girl in the front was new because she didn't know how to minus things you didn't want. They also must be short staffed because in between every order she took she went to get the person who ordered previously order. I got a spicy to go wrap that that when I opened had a shred of lettuce, 3 little piece of shredded cheese and a really small half of chicken. I refuse to drive all the way back to wendys just for them to fix what should've been done correct the first time. I don't feel like someone should make something they wouldn't even eat.

Wendy’s building

We visited Wendy's last night and we were appalled at the condition of the building. It had several leaks in the roof — water was leaking in so many places that tables couldn't be used. It's such a shame because the food is great and the staff are friendly. Our little town is limited in places to eat so Wendy is an important business. I'd like to see the building repaired. Thank you for considering this complaint and helping our community.

Wendy’s service

I Use this Wendy's several times a week. Tonight was rudest service I have ever received! Person taking my order at drive-through couldn't hear me due to banging going on in background & kept messing up my order. So I asked her to cancel it so I could start over. From that point on I received nothing but attitude. The cashier greeted me with a snarl, did not tell me the amount I owed, did not say thank you and closed the window in my face as I tried to thank her! The man putting my order together moved deliberately slow as I watched him, and also handed me the food without any of knowledge meant of my existence much less a simple thank you, and again, close the window on my face as I was trying to thank him! I did not deserve that type of treatment from them nor did I trust my food when I got it home. I'm not sure how I can trust them to go there again. Nor do I want to be treated like that again especially at 8:45 at night after I've worked all day

Wendy’s extremely rude customer service

My husband and I visited the Wendy's in Henderson, NC for lunch today and I have never been treated so rudely. I ordered a #7 combo, the sandwich only for #7, and a medium tea. The cashier, a young black female named Danielle, gave us only one cup and when we asked for the second cup she got a very nasty attitude and said we didn't get but one. She said, "You said you only wanted the sandwich, not the combo." I said I know I did but I paid for an extra tea. She said that's your tea! I said well where is the drink that goes with the combo and she said, "That's it!" We could not get her to understand that we should have two cups. She then grabbed a cup from under the counter and slammed it on the counter and said, "Here, I'll give you another one, but you shouldn't get another one!" I told her I had her name and would be reporting her and she rolled her eyes, shrugged her shoulders and mumbled something.

There were people waiting long periods of time for their food, one couple even asked for their money back because they had waited so long. I asked the lady fixing the trays to look at my ticket and tell me what I paid for and she said I should have gotten a small cup with the combo and a medium cup for the tea. I asked Danielle did she hear that and she looked at this lady (who I believe was the manager) and said, "That's what I gave them!" I told her she did not, not until we basically made her give us another cup.

The manager apologized but looked at this girl and laughed, like it was funny! I hope something is done so that Danielle does not think it is okay to treat customers this way.

Wendy’s manager selling out of your establishment

You have a manager by the name of Curtis Johnson selling drugs out of your establishment at the Harriman Tn store. I know several people who go and buy from him while he's at work and quite honestly I have quit going to Wendy's because of this. I love eating at Wendy's but I will not allow my children to eat there or be anywhere near it. I shouldn't have to keep avoiding eating there because of this and if something doesn't get done I will notify the authorities of the situation

Wendy’s eating experience

I was a regular at Wendy's 20066 until today. They had messed up an order in front of mine and before I got it three workers and another customer had handled my double sandwich. Now by the time I got it, it was stone cold but I was hungry anyway unti I saw the large hole in the wrapper from the other customer touching it with her hand and fingernails. No one saw it or cared apparently. Apparently we don't deserve good
service anymore and other peoplee can touch your food!

Wendy’s worker's bad attitude and rudeness

My daughter and I went in for a late lunch at Wendy's store #01836 in Overkand Park. Kansas
The cashier (LaQuita) was VERY rude to us and spoke down to us like we were stupid and beneath her. She was very friendly toward other people who were either Latino or African-American, but not to us. I can only assume is was because we are Caucasian. This behavior is totally unacceptable, unnecessary, and inappropriate. We will never come to this location again because of her. That sort of conduct should not be allowed by any employee to any customer, period, no matter what the buisness may be.

Wendy’s wendy's on south crater road in petersburg

Why I stand in line for 13 mins ?
Why a lady have to come get credit for half a sandwich because there was a hair ?

So I asked ok what . She says we wear hats .
I'm asking her why do I have to come back to get money a new sandwich or come back period, for something that should've been nowhere possible to land on my food ?
So does everyone's Wendy's burger have a hair ? I ordered and have even got my food yet and there was a lady coming to complain about a hair . As if this just common . That lady had the audacity to raise her voice, as if the complain was not foul . " Well we were hard what do you expect me to do ?" I just hung up . Not only are you all nasty, trifling, in responsible, and not concerned about how the hygiene and dressing of the employee, but that's ludicrous . No way in hell should there be a hair . Something you should look to prevent just because it's possible . Careless . Then the pregnant white lady at the register raising her time of voice with an elderly black lady . To the point where I said something . "You don't need to be talking to no customers the way you are ."
Disgrace to the Wendy's name . Periot .

Wendy’s management

Hello,

I am an employee of Wendy in Calgary canada. Reastaurant number is 141029 located at 1181 49 ave ne calgary t2e8v2.

I am currently working here and is suffering due to unfair management . Whole outlet is managed by all family members and they are gettung ample hours to work an earn good but some of us are given only 6 to 8 hours per week and even after repeated requests and discussion things are not getting changed.

It is really impossible to see that family members arr getting more than 40 hours per week and we are jot getting any hours.

If management is fair they can distriute houts fairly betweem employees.

I cannot put the schedule here but if you check their weekly schedules it is very clearly evident.

We need your help and management to be fair to all employees n not to just their family members so that we can also earn for our living .

Please help us.
