Is it just me or is this the slowest Wendy's in the area??? Recently I had two people in line in front of me when I came in and it still took them over 10 minutes for them to get their food and mine. Are they just understaffed? Poorly managed?

11/19/2008 3:39:02 PM

send an email to Dave Thomas........oh wait

11/19/2008 3:39:44 PM

I STOPPED GOING THERE A LONG ASS TIME AGO SON. THAT IS THE WORST WENDY'S AROUND SON.

11/19/2008 3:39:46 PM

It's hard to get the orders right now that Dave Thomas is gone.

11/19/2008 3:39:55 PM

they were usually pretty fast in my experience, how many times have you had slow service there ?

11/19/2008 3:40:17 PM

the wendys and taco bell on western leave much to be desired.

11/19/2008 3:40:22 PM

the service there is terrible

10 minutes for food is pretty standard there if you go inside

its pretty damn slow. i stopped going there for the hardees on gorman/avent ferry. If I'm going to wait long for my food, i may as well pay half as much.

11/19/2008 3:41:15 PM

Wendy's is slow overall, but this location is so absurdly slow I quit going, and I have pretty low standards

11/19/2008 3:41:18 PM

I heard they offer express service to cars with fecal matter on them

11/19/2008 3:41:34 PM

^^ 4 out of 5 times I go there, and I go there like twice a week

IT LOOKS LIKE WE ALL AGREE SON. WE ALL STOPPED GOING THERE A LONG ASS TIME AGO.

11/19/2008 3:42:20 PM

Only 2 Dave Thomas jokes in the first minute? You disappoint me, wolfweb.

11/19/2008 3:42:35 PM

old news.

11/19/2008 3:42:42 PM

When Fast Food becomes Slow Food, you might as well go Mexican for the free chips, cheap food, and excellent service.

11/19/2008 3:43:06 PM

Jerome Bettis is from Detroit and Tyler Hansborough's will think this is old news.

11/19/2008 3:43:21 PM

i have a wendy's about half a mile from here, but i drive to the one 2 miles away cause it's better

you guys care

11/19/2008 3:44:10 PM

ever since they fired the mullet lady a few years ago that place has gone downhill - while she was there if the food wasn't hanging out the door by the time you got to the pickup window ppl basically got fired

11/19/2008 3:44:13 PM

Obama is the next prez - no need to work hard.

11/19/2008 3:45:08 PM

Wendy had a very difficult time with the passing of Big Dave. In the months that followed, she picked up a serious coke habit and began whoring it up on the weekends.

Amidst the downward spiral of gangbangs and cheap liquor, Wendy's focused strayed from the speed of service that Dave once prided himself upon.

We miss you Dave

11/19/2008 3:50:14 PM

if you are in the drive through you really get fucked on the fries. I always see them stacking up like 4 or 5 small fries under the heat lamp and then fill the dining room orders with made-to-order stuff from the big bin.

Except diarrhea, they got that covered. TRUST ME.

THEY

GOT THAT

COVERED

11/19/2008 4:09:33 PM

they've always been quick for me, but then again they forget something every 3 out of 5 times or so

11/19/2008 4:21:57 PM

Yeah, if you do actually get your food in a timely manner, it's probably not what you ordered.

11/19/2008 4:26:08 PM

try hardees on gorman... I'd rather walk in there and make it my damn self

11/19/2008 4:29:22 PM

Wendy's on Trinity at CF and RBC is pretty good....

11/19/2008 4:32:26 PM

Wendy's sucks.

11/19/2008 4:33:16 PM

What the hell happened to that place? It used to be the fastest Wendy's around. I couldn't pay and pull up fast enough for 'em. My food would always be hanging out of the window when i got to it. CRAZY I SAY!!

11/19/2008 4:47:07 PM

when i was there, this wendy's was pretty damn fast

i would order, with no one in line and the girl would be half-hanging out the window with my bag by the time i rolled up

11/19/2008 4:56:53 PM

same here, I guess that's been about a year though

11/19/2008 5:06:24 PM

why are Wendy's fries always so soggy?

11/19/2008 5:14:19 PM

they store them in their hair, they just soak up a little more grease en route to the window

I stopped going there a long ass time ago son. That is the worst Wendy's around, son.

11/19/2008 5:17:06 PM

Wendy's on Western? Slow? YOU DON'T SAY.

11/19/2008 5:17:54 PM

they personally inspected every chicken strip box with their mouth at the wendy's in Hillsborough

Slave Famous knows what im talkin bout

It's also the busiest one in Raleigh. When I worked there a few years ago and was quitting when the summer was over, my manager was like, "I can transfer you over to the one on Western and Gorman"

and then we was like, "but you probably won't want to work there, as cars are wrapped around the drive-thru all day"

and I was like [no]

11/19/2008 6:04:29 PM

You were about to order the strips too iirc

then audibled to a burger at the last minute

this was the fastest drivethru i've ever experienced. its been a couple of years since i was in the area. i guess all good things must come to an end.

11/19/2008 6:26:23 PM

OMG I THINK I HAVE WRITTEN ABOUT THIS BEFORE

in school i would always talk to a manager (which never helped) OR write emails to wendy's via their website. they send you coupons yayyy.

this place was HORRIBLE when i lived in falcon ridge. i started even eating mcdonalds ughh. i shudder to think about the experiences i've had at the western blvd wendys

they'd constantly mess up my order, not have things (like napkins or spoons, yea right) or just take a god forsaken amount of time BOTH INSIDE AND IN THE DRIVE THRU

easy solution, is don't go to wendy's. but it was like the only fast food i liked. then i rediscovered mcdonald's kids meals. but those still weren't AS good.

11/19/2008 6:37:49 PM

i'd like a #6 about now..mmm

[Edited on November 19, 2008 at 6:39 PM. Reason : yeah this is making me want some fast food bad]

11/19/2008 6:39:31 PM

the one in southern pines is slow as shit too. (inside)

when you go through the drive thru its really fast. so i just do that and then go inside now. works great.

11/19/2008 6:55:57 PM

It's because of all the black people.

11/19/2008 7:21:14 PM

i think i had already ordered the strips, because it was my box she was slobbing on

11/19/2008 7:42:58 PM

The girl I spoke to last time didn't understand me when I said "I want a straw"

She didn't speak enough English for that apparently
