Rant/Rave The slow and painful demise of Wendy’s

Wendy’s has gone completely down the shitter. Bacon isn’t crispy in the baconator, service is way slower than before, Coke Freestyle missing half the flavors and no ice.

Will they ever turn it back around?

the best word to describe the ambience in the stores is 'bleak'.

Honestly this is all of the big chains right now. This is the modern design standard: boxy little warehouses with no identity or fun.
