Employees and management
This is the worst Wendy's in town, 450 E Nine Mile rd Pensacola. I have visited this location on 3 occasions diff months they have said they are not taking orders. Few other times they say they are out of Coke or frostys. Have spoken to the manager a few times about the burgers still being pink in the middle. System issues etc always something. The...

I've gone twice to store on W. Colfax identified above and ordered large taco salad and they give me the small taco salad to go. I bought another large taco salad at Wendy's on West alameda Ave Lakewood which is when I discovered the store on Colfax is cheating me. Paying for a large and getting a small salad and chili. I made it very clear I wanted a Large Taco Salad, paid $7.30 and took what they gave me. The One I bought on W. Alameda Wendy's had a larger container of Chili, a larger amount of salad. How do I stop the store on Colfax from cheating me on my order?
Desired outcome: Want to get what I pay for
Service or Better Yet Lack of Service
Saturday, May 1st at 9:21pm CST at the location of 880 Stateline Road, Southaven, MS 38671, my husband and I waited in line for 28 minutes and got to one car behind the speaker and employee runs out back door puts a cone on with closed sign. Restaurant does not close till 11pm. There was a total of 4 employees visible on the inside as my husband walked up to the window and none of them would acknowledge him. I have been very patient with all service with the pandemic and lack of employees, yet this was very rude and the line behind me still had 5-6 cars. This is unacceptable and if anything a cone should have been put behind the last car in line if closing early.
Marketing
I am appalled at the new ad with the girl stealing a bike to get food! In these times, is that the message you really want to send. I doubt Dave would approve!
I personally will not be going to your restaurants anytime soon. What a sad message to send to the youth of our world! I think your marketing team needs to reevaluate this ad ASAP.
Burger had hair in it
On Saturday morning May 8, 2021 me and my daughter went to Wendy's. It was raining so my daughter and I had our heads cover with and bonnets and I had on a scarf and a hat. When we got home and she open up her burger hair was all in it. We know it couldn't be our hair because it was covered. I don't know what's going on over there but someone needs to be more careful handling the food. I ready don't feel comfortable eating Wendy's anymore.
Thank You

customer service
We ordered through the app, it said we had until 10:25 to order breakfast. We ordered before that time, and attempted to pick it up at 10:31. They said they stopped serving breakfast at 10:30 and told us to hit cancel. We did, and it said "Thank you for your order" and charged us. The charge went through so I called them after it posted, and they said the franchise would refund it. They never did, and I'm having to dispute the charge through the bank. No food, after driving there, and no refund.
When I went to give the app a one star rating, I read dozens of reviews with the same story, the app cheated them and wendy's never refunded charges.
When I wrote customer service they corrected my misuse of a word and never answered my question about my refund.
When I went to other review sites to review the restaurant, I found many many people on yelp had gotten food poisoning at that particular store (Barnett Shoals, Athens, Ga.) Maybe it's better that they were too rude and lazy to give us our food! I still want my money back, though. I hate being robbed.
Dave Thomas would be spinning in his grave. Wendy's used to be a nice fast food restaurant, now it's all "food poisoning and cheating customers."
Desired outcome: refund
Management issues: very poor and slow service
On 4/29/21, around 11am, we sat in the car line for approximately 20 minutes, as I have done the three previous visits. When at the ordering window, I sat for a considerable length of time then finally said, "Hello, is anyone there?" When the response did come, I could not understand him because he spoke so fast. Fortunately, my grandson was able to translate some of his speech. When he said to pull around, I asked him to please repeat my order. He did and it was wrong. Again, it was very difficult for us to understand him. At the pick-up window, where we were to pay also, I asked for the manager's name. Forget that! Long story short, here's the problem with your business on S Willow Ave, Cookeville, TN: 1) I was told that Laura is the manager (no last name, apparently) and was not told how I could contact her; 2) was not handed a receipt nor given change for my $20; 3) Order was a baconator meal, a 4 for 4, and order of small fries. Was told they were sorry and proceeded to explain the problem and then was handed our order and apologized again, saying have a nice day. I was so disgusted that I forgot to ask for my change. Forget about spending another 45 minutes in line to get my change or parking and going in in the downpour. Never going back till the easily resolvable problem is resolved, but I don't see that happening under whoever is managing this district. Unbelievable. And I may add that I don't expect this to reach anyone in upper management. Meanwhile, you are losing a LOT of business.
Desired outcome: Goes to Distrist Manager
sweet tea
The sweet tea was sour and disappointing, and they said thet didn't have ketchup.
All this happened at the Wendy's in Thomasville, Ga, we won't be going back there.
Desired outcome: For them to do their jobs
Frosty
The new mix taste like spoiled milk and its disgusting. My daughter and I regularly buy them and we both almost threw up. It was horrible. This happened April 25 2021. In Monroe Michigan. We even called the store hoping it was a 1 time thing ands was disappointed to hear it wasn't. Undue this. You knew better. You know frostys are a staple you should never have messed with. During a time of distress is never a good time for changing a beloved favorite. Get it together over there.
Desired outcome: Go back to original frosty mix
Biggie bag
I recently purchased 2 Biggie bags, or I should say Bogus Bags. What a joke. I have a question" Wheres the beef". Your add shows fat juicy burgers and what you get is paper thin crap. I bet it doesn't even total 2 ounces of beef, old and hard. Returned the 2 bags and got the same [censored] again. You should be ashamed serving this dog food. I will never visit Wendy's again. False advertising and not getting what is on your signs and pictures in the store. Wendy's sucks.
Wrong order
I ordered online this evening 4/26/21 at approx 10:20pm on my way home after having car trouble all evening. When it was delivered the driver informed me that I'd been given French fries instead of the baked potato I had ordered.
Cold, greasy, hard fries. Instead of the grilled chicken sandwich with lettuce, tomato, pickle I actually ordered, I was given a spicy chicken sandwich with pickle and cheese only.
Desired outcome: Replaced order along with money back
Nuggets
How could you serve these to people?!?! Absolutely disgusting! Made me sick! As a GM in the restaurant business for 20 years, I would NEVER think this is acceptable! Would the person serving it eat it? See attached picture.
service and price
On April 18, 2021 i stopped at your store in Hendersonville, NC store number #[protected] at 2.35pm. I ordered a large chili and a plain hamburger for my puppy. I paid for the meal and left. I drove about 3 miles to a local park to eat. When i opened the bag i found a small chili and a plain hamburger. The price on the hamburger was $4.39. For a plain hamburger is unreal. I love Wendys products. I stop to get chili about once a week but at a different store. I will never go back to that store every again.

Desired outcome: have them told about their serviced.
Jalapeño Salad
I ordered a jalapeño salad from the Upland Wendy's restaurant today. Much of the lettuce was wilted and a few pieces of lettuce had actual dirt on them. Unfortunately I didn't notice these situations until I left the restaurant and began eating at my home. When I saw condition of my salad, I felt sick and disgusted.
I would really like to make the management aware of this lack of proper preparation and cleanliness. Thank you.
Desired outcome: I would like a refund and I would like to eat at that store and not fear eating unwashed, dated food.
Employee conduct
Your employee, a tall white man, who works at the Aston Wendy's on Pennel Rd in pa does drugs in the parking lot. While he's in uniform. It is this standard practice for your employees. I've seen him do it more than once. I don't even want my teenagers to apply at that store or even eat there because I'm not sure what kind of example will be set for them. It's a disgrace.
Read full review of Wendy’sWorking late night.
I'm currently volunteering for two wendy's I close until 1- 2am. And I'm always getting calls from tha shift managers while I'm doing coursework. I happen to be in community college. And sometimes I have a lot of stuff I need to do. While I'm getting my work done I constantly receive calls from tha shift managers asking if I can close. I usually don't have time to close but they still persist that I come. This just happened yesterday I got call from one of tha North Providence shift managers zulma asking if I can close I said no I cannot but then she calls me two three minutes later and she says has no one to close. I got really angry and annoyed because I don't like interruptions and I don't like when this to interfere with my coursework and my sleep. Now because I barely get any sleep. And I always wake up late in tha day and sometimes I'm late for my online courses. I need reasonable hours like maybe 12-7pm or 1-8pm.
Desired outcome: Have earliest hours
Service of food, and the behavior of employees.
On 4/16/21, at 2:15 pm, I visited the Wendy's restaurant which, located on Boston Road, in the Bronx, N.Y. I'm making this complaint because the service was terrible, and the employees was very unprofessional! I ordered 3 Cesar salads, 3 order of fries, 5 orders of chicken nugget, a chicken sandwich, and 3 Berry Lemonade drinks. Food which costed nearly...

I ordered a breakfast baconator on a croissant and when I got to work. I had a sausage egg croissant burnt pieces of potatoes. I do have photos if needed. I work at a hospital and I couldn't go back. It wasn't busy as usual so I'm not understanding how a simple order was incorrect. The staff is also unprofessional at times. A customer service refresher course could help most.

About Wendy’s
One of Wendy's most popular menu items is the Baconator, a double cheeseburger topped with six strips of bacon. This mouth-watering burger has become a fan favorite, and it's easy to see why. The combination of juicy beef, crispy bacon, and melted cheese is simply irresistible.
In addition to its burgers, Wendy's also offers a variety of other menu items, including chicken sandwiches, salads, and sides like chili and baked potatoes. And let's not forget about the famous Frosty, a creamy, chocolatey treat that has been a staple at Wendy's since the beginning.
But Wendy's is more than just a fast-food chain. The company is committed to giving back to the community through its Wendy's Wonderful Kids program, which helps find permanent homes for children in foster care.

Overall, Wendy's is a beloved fast-food chain that has stood the test of time. With its commitment to quality ingredients, delicious menu items, and charitable efforts, it's no wonder why Wendy's has become a household name.
