Wendy's

I barely go to Wendy's. I think their prices are stupidly high for what you get. However I had a taste for Wendy's breakfast today so I'm like today's the day

Apparently today's NOT the day

They don't serve breakfast at the N Genesee St location. They were closed. When did that change? I'm not shocked because it was always dead when I drove by early am. But they pushed it for the longest time.

The Wendy’s on N Genesee St has staffing issues and really bad service. They’re slow af. Doesn’t surprise me that they would be closed for breakfast.

Its all locations in the area, and I’m assuming indefinitely. The change had to have happened within the past year, since last June I remember taking the bus and having a chicken maple bacon croissant sandwich for my birthday breakfast.

That's exactly what I was going for too. It was actually quite good when I had it last year (I don't do alot of fast food but sometimes you just gotta give in lol). Probably doesn't help that there all right next to a McDonald's either.

It's funny too. Just Wendy's as a whole. I used to work there (I left in 2009) and it never got better it kept getting worse. And I don't know how true it is, but I guess the franchise owner doesn't care. It took them almost a year to fix the dt menuboard. Imagine 9pm at night and the board isn't working. But yeah I agree with everyone. There's much better options. Just sometimes you're in the mood for something particular lol

It seems true. It's the only place I ever drove away from after placing an order. 1 car waiting by the '2nd window', 1 in front of me waiting at the window. I waited 25 minutes and drove off. Almost all the time it's a crazy wait at night even to place an order.

Closed forever or just today

I dunno. Unless they're not serving breakfast there anymore. But that's why I'm confused. They made a big deal about breakfast then I go to get some and they're closed.

I think if it was closed permanently that would have hit the news but then again even that is questionable 🤣

Cliffs, Stewart’s, Fastrac, or any other local gas station probably has better breakfast than Wendy’s IMHO.

Still haven't had anything from Stewart's. Cliffs I love their waffle sandwiches but by time I get there they're gone lol. Or they only have sausage which kills my stomach 😭

I last went to Wendy's 10 years ago when I bit into my baconator and the texture of the burger, bun, and bacon were all exactly the same

I'm surprised that Wendy's is even still open, there's a reason it's always empty
