Ice cream shop
Colorful ice cream parlor chain known for its many flavors plus sorbet & yogurt.
The lady working was phenomenal! She was so knowledgeable! And was working so hard.. My daughter and I had stopped in late for a ice cream. Even though they were ready to close we had no idea., She treated us as if it was noon..Thank you so much for making my date night with my daughter a huge hit! Will definitely be back!!

Ordered ice cream on the app which showed there was 31 flavors. Which is what a baskin robins is known for. Placed the order for 2- 2 scoops of ice cream. They didn’t have a single flavor we ordered and paid for. Was in the drive thru for about fifteen minutes going back and forth trying to figure out what flavors they do have. Employees and manager were quite rude and acted as if we were highly inconveniencing them by ordering this ice cream… at a baskin robins. Ok.. so finally after saying “can I just get plain chocolate?” I got “We don’t have that” So I asked for a refund as we already paid, they could not give me a refund and just handed me a gift card for $5.77. As if I’d want to come back. Avoid this place if you want ice cream. It’s just a Dunkin’ Donuts with rude employees.

Sorry it’s long, buckle up. 🤣 This location has become a bit of a joke in our family. “It was bad, but was it as bad as that one Baskin Robbins?” 😂 We stopped while on vacation. We decided the sign must be upside down bc their “31 flavors” were actually only 13. 😆 That’s fine, still plenty of options… but then they were out of SO MANY THINGS… much of which they didn’t inform us of until after we’d paid. We weren’t sure which end to go to so we went to the ice cream counter since that’s what we were there for. We were the only customers there yet we still stood there for several minutes without anyone coming to help. It turns out the guy working was standing looking at his phone at the Dunkin register waiting for us to come to him. He finally leaned over the counter and rudely asked us if we were ready yet. My bad, dude, we interrupting your work day? 😆 We went down to order, paid. My kids wanted waffle cones, which they didn’t have but at least they told us before we paid for those. They didn’t have most of the flavors we asked about, but we all settled on something they had. No big deal. Then he had us walk back down and basically re-order everything again at the ice cream counter we were at originally since he didn’t print it out or write it down or anything. Not the most efficient system, lol, but we were finally getting served so it was fine. My husband and I ordered a 3 scoop sundae to share. The employee handed me 3 tiny scoops of ice cream in a dish, nothing on top. I was confused and was like, ummm, isn’t there usually something on a sundae? Acting like I was thoroughly inconveniencing him the guy informed me he was out of hot fudge. I politely pushed a little bit… “Ok but like, isn’t there anything ELSE you put on it? Cause this is just 3 scoops in a dish which is a considerably cheaper price point than the sundae I already paid for!” 😆 He was acting annoyed and was like well what do you WANT on it? I saw some syrups so I’m like, how bout one of those? He hands it back still acting like I’m super inconveniencing him and I’m like, “What else is normally on it? Could I have some whip cream or a cherry or something to make it more like a sundae?” Apparently they were out of both but I did get a little scoop of nuts for my trouble. 😆 This whole ordering process took a little over a half hour but then we still needed to wait for our friends to go through the whole thing. 😂 We’re pretty good natured so I didn’t demand money back or anything but then our friends went through a similar ordering experience right after us where Baskins had NOTHING that they were trying to order but they also ended up paying for items that turned out to be out of stock. We weren’t mad, just befuddled, and we all had a good laugh about it as we ate our sad little ice creams scrounged together from the scraps of their kitchen. But here’s the kicker… the real “cherry” on top of the whole experience, since I didn’t get one on my sundae (ahaha see what I did there? 😂) Before we left I went in to use the restroom and another employee was using the restroom. Ya’ll I watched her walk out WITHOUT WASHING HER HANDS! 🤢 I tried to give her the benefit of the doubt thinking maybe she had a soap allergy and would go use other soap or hand sanitizer or SOMETHING… But nope…. I watched her walk straight from the bathroom, behind the counter, to the register, and immediately start serving other people. 😱 🤢🤮 So anyway. That was an interesting experience. Thanks for the funny memories on our family vacation 🤣

Only had like 4 flavors of ice cream, none of which were normal or basic. Not even a single chocolate or vanilla. Gross restrooms and just a waste of a stop.

How this place can get a positive review is beyond us. No one wants to wait on you, can't ask a question because no one wants to address the fact that a customer came thru the door. We left. If we could give a 0 we would. We got zero so that's what we give this Baskin Robbins.

I have been in there twice - the first time there was NO ice cream. They told me they "should have some tomorrow." Today, I tried again. There were three people behind the counter - didn't acknowledge me. Finally, one gal said- if you want something, you have to go down there (register). I gave them what they wanted - I left. I will never step foot in there again.

The counter woman was very nice. Maybe 15 of 31 flavors were in stock. I cannot overstate how dirty the bathroom was. I know every place is short handed but this location desperately needs a manager.

Stopped there today around 4pm and ordered 3 double scoop waffle cones, well had to throw at least one out because there was a FLY in the ice cream. My boyfriend took a bite and bam there it was. Luckily he didn’t ingest any..that we know of. Absolutely awful.

Chicken restaurant
Fast food restaurant
Restaurant chain known for its buckets of fried chicken, plus combo meals & sides.
Chicken was cooked to order I had a seven minute wait but it was worth it to get fresh hot chicken Jennifer and the team gave awesome customer service
Michelle S — Google review
I don't know who runs this store but it sucks. Either out of product or even in the middle of the day they don't have the oven on to cook what they need to. I will never spend my money there again. I'm sick and tired of dealing with this younger generation. Zero work ethic and the same goes for the manager.

O.K. here is my beef. I live across the nation by Boise Idaho. First time ever in my 60 years in this state visiting Florida. Came to see grandbabies. We are staying at the Quality inn just north of this KFC location. My wife is paralyzed on half her body from an early life stroke. She uses a battery operated power chair that I have to prep. I just had knee replacement. I ordered a 4 piece taste of KFC. I distinctly said 3:times no thighs. At checkout the girl said you have 1 breast and 3 legs. As soon as I got back to my room and open the box it was half thighs. I was pissed. Because I asked several times and took there word for it. Wrong decision, always check your order. I walked back in pain and they did add an extra leg to the original order. I love KFC, and I am loyal. This is just another frustrating experience I have had not just here but back in Caldwell, Idaho.

Went in there today 12/31 I requested a family bucket. I told the gril please let the chicken rest, one again the oil was saturated on the bottom they just dump it the bucket. The chicken skin was tore off. I don't appreciate the store not answering thier phone either..

12pc bucket for $40 something dollars and the chicken tiny, dry, and old. Tried calling store during hours to complain and no answer. This business is gonna loose to Popeyes.

Restaurant
Fast food restaurant
Louisiana-inspired fast-food chain known for its crispy fried chicken, chicken sandwiches & fries.
Went through the drive thru. Friendly staff greeted me. My order was punctual and hot. The food is always very good. The red beans and rice can't be beat.
David M — Google review
I used the Drive Thru. I had to wait 10 minutes for them to bring the food out to me after I ordered. I ordered the 5 piece Chicken strips. There were only 3 in the box when I got home. Also when they finally brought the food out to me, they didn't bring the drink so then I had to wait for that. Let's just say they didn't put the dipping sauce in the box either. They asked what flavor I wanted and still forgot it. I reviewed the order on the LCD order screen to make sure everything was there, yet everything wasn't there when I got the food. I also didn't get a receipt which would have listed what I ordered. They obviously don't train their people. This seems to be a common experience at Popeyes. If you want a half-way experience, then this is the place for you.
Don H — Google review
What can you say about Popeyes chicken? It's the best. Despite the sign on the wall in the dining room that promised cool, crisp and tangy coleslaw, what I had was limp, room temperature and was swimming in some milky concoction that was way too sweet. No tang at all and seemed maybe leftover from the previous week. The gospel music blaring from the speakers was a definite turn off. The restrooms were clean, but some bright bulb had decided that rather than put regular paper towels in the dispenser, to use napkins from the front instead. The only way to get them out was to fish around and drag them out by the fistful. I understand most of their business is drive through but surely they could spare someone to wipe off the tables and sweep once in awhile? Parking is tight, best to back in if you have a large vehicle. If you are northbound you can only exit southbound and then have to make a u-turn, which can take awhile.

Went in ordered the lady at the counter said it would be 3 minutes for the chicken, so I paid and was waiting along with 3 othe couples waiting for chicken also, then she comes back and said it was actually going to be 15 to 20 minutes. So I said how about I just get my money back I would just go somewhere else, well not one person in that works there knew how to refund money, so I said I would comeback, the lady said bring your receipt or your order won't be honored! Went back 15 minutes later got the chicken went home and all the chicken was raw, the breading looked good but not the chicken, took it back and nope they did nothing, except say we are sorry but that happens!!! So not a good place for a quick dinner on a busy day!

Ordered a 3 piece chicken tender meal and wanted 2 sides so the employee suggested I get the 5 piece as it comes with 2 side I agreed to that. As I was traveling I didnt count the tenders until I got home, 30 miles away. There werenonly 4 tenders in the box and while that was bad enough, the tenders were only as big as my pointer finger. Looked like a regular tender was cut i. Half. Almost $15 and the portion was ridiculous.

I love Popeyes food or I would not have stayed for this. This is the slooooowŵwwweeessstttt store I have ever been in. We ordered 5 meals one of those to go. We were in that restaurant close to 1 hour 15 minutes to get all the food half were done eating before the rest even saw food. And we gave food to her to eat while waiting. For 4 minute shrimp. Pitiful service, no hurry. Most of the problems are created by the worker. No hurry none. Walk off in middle of taking the order to take care something else. Absolutely NO hurry, not even a quick step. Every time we come to this one, only one time was the exception to the rule. This place makes everyone wait. I guess they proved that it doesn't matter what kind of service you give people still come? I won't not to this on. Chiefland

I usually love this place; however they missed the mark on the chicken wings. I ate one and tossed the rest. They were oily and soggy from sitting in the oily hot sauce. Not good at all. The friend chicken was hot and cooked to perfection. Buyer beware on the sauced wings. I will stay with the ghost pepper wings.
Todd M — Google review
We have ate here on many occasions and every single time they forget half the order and/or it's cold. Today was no exception. Had to pull up and wait just for them to not bring over half our order and then they gave me the smallest drink they have when I paid for the combo. The only reason why we go back is because there's not another Popeyes in this town. Customer service always sucks. Food is hit or miss

Popular delivery, carry-out & dine-in chain known for pizza, wings & pasta, plus sides & desserts.
Hotest jalapeños I have ever ate, and I eat them for breakfast. Too hot to handle.

My delivery guy awesome!!! Paid 50 dollars for 2 medium pizza plus tip. Pizza was supposed to deliver the pizza at 844pm which is late for me got a text that it was canceled at 838pm. I did receive the pizza once I confirmed it wasn't canceled and I was very disappointed!! I will not be ordering pizza hut ever again!!
Ashley B — Google review
The pizza we received was good, it was just not what we ordered. We ordered pan pizza just cheese, we received pan pizza with ham and pineapple, fortunately we like that type okay. The workers were very distracted and talking with each other, so that is probably why they made the wrong pizza. The pizza was hot and fresh, which is why I would say it is 3 stars, it would have been 5 stars if we got what we ordered 🙂

Worst yet! Silverware was dirty. Cheese bread was not done. The pizza was not done. Coffee had grounds in it. This pizza hut has went downhill fast. I have went there for many years, but I won't be back for a while!

Hamburger restaurant
Fast-food chain serving fried chicken, big burgers & made-from-scratch breakfast biscuits.
The absolute best hamburger I've had in months. It was so good I'm probably going back tomorrow. People acted like they were happy I was there, really friendly. Fantastic burger!!!
Susan D — Google review
We go there to for breakfast and all we have is attitude every time and burnt biscuits it has went downhill so bad and for the lady who had the attitude with me that's how you lose business and you probably don't own the business therefore you should probably treat their business a little more friendly I need a picture of your biscuit ordered three meals and got one pack of jelly and wouldn't give me any more. And dry so dry this particular Hardee's has went down so bad
