I stopped by this past Tuesday Feb 17 to buy some patties. They need a better ventilation system, the doors always have condensation on them. I asked the lady who came out how much the patties were, she pointed up. She came off standoffish. So when I wanted to pay after telling her which patties I wanted, she said $10 minimum for a card. This is 2026. They just don’t want to pay the fee. I canceled it and left, I’d never come back.
The new young ladies they have working at this location attitudes are nasty. I’ve been coming to this location for years and I have to say today was my last straw. These young ladies DONT EVEN GREET you when you walk in, I had to say good morning on the last 4 occasions I came in. And I still didn’t get a good morning back or a “hi , how can I help you”. Just a blank stare. they service your food with NO GLOVES ON & throw your food into the containers and bags like it’s garbage. Unfortunately th
The new young cashier’s attitude is TERRIBLE. It’s honestly so bad that you might as well not eat there. I walked in & immediately she’s sighing as if me purchasing food from a restaurant is open is an issue. She proceeds to not address us at all for the next 5 minutes. Just to let us know that there is no coco bread while having 4 packed patties sitting there and claiming that it’s for her coworkers friends. Unprofessional. Go to the one on pitkin ave instead.
