I was seated quickly, the server (Kayleigh) was amazing, attentive, and helpful. The food was delicious and the dessert outstanding. So, I recommend you drop in and taste for yourself. Side note: Men's restroom was clean and serviceable. read more

See all

Dear Customer Service, I am writing to share my disappointment with my recent experiences at the Waynesboro Applebee's. About two months ago, I placed my usual order--the 2 for $25 special with two Fiesta Lime Chicken entrees and an appetizer. The Fiesta Lime Chicken is my favorite menu item, and it is normally excellent. Unfortunately, on that visit, both chicken entrees were extremely dry and hard. They were so overcooked that I couldn't eat my dinner at all. The only part of the meal I was able to eat was the appetizer. Although I don't like complaining, I felt I needed to call the restaurant because I had paid for a meal that was inedible. The manager I spoke with was very kind and apologized for the experience. She told me that the next time I ordered, I would receive a credit, which I appreciated. Tonight, about two months later, I called the restaurant to redeem that credit and place another order. I also mentioned that I hoped the meal would be prepared correctly this time, given what had happened previously. The manager told me she would get someone on the line to take my order, but instead I was placed on hold for over 10 minutes without anyone assisting me. This second experience was just as disappointing as the first. While I understand that restaurants can be busy, I feel that, given the circumstances and the promise that had been made to resolve my previous issue, my call should have been handled with greater care. read more

In the heart of Waynesboro, parking isn't an issue, mainly because nobody seems to want to park there. I showed up at 10:00 pm, an hour before closing, blissfully unaware of the culinary disaster awaiting me. Thank goodness for our waitress Kaylie; without her, this would have been a total catastrophe. The walls, adorned with Waynesboro's sports history, were the highlight of the evening. Things started off promising with some decent chips and dips, but it all went downhill from there. I ordered a full rack of ribs with fries and coleslaw, while my wife opted for chicken tenders and fries--simple enough, right? Wrong. The kitchen staff made it painfully clear they wanted to go home. My ribs were as dry as the Sahara, the fries were cold, and the coleslaw was MIA. My wife's tenders were okay, but her fries tasted like cardboard. The two Shark bowls that were supposed to come with gummies were more like a cruel joke. Not only did the gluten warning on the menu make a mysterious disappearance, but so did the gummies. Apparently, the sharks got them before we did! Kaylie was great, keeping our drinks filled, but if you come by 10 pm, their menu was practically non-existent. So, ribs it was--ribs I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy. Maybe I'll give another try sometime for lunch if I am in the area. read more

Applebees 8-26-24. I ate at Applebees tonight. In Waynesboro PA 17268 Merchant ID 491621. Survey code 7994013909375 TB#72-CO Terrible! I'll never eat here again.!!! Starters the margarita was week and mostly ice I got the salmon dinner. It was very dry. I used the bathroom and both soap dispensers were broken! So none of the lady workers were washing hands!!! Terrible meal for the price. I'll never go back read more

Server was pretty bad food was good "I figured you would keep your sauces" I think there's just better things to say to a table, the last 2 orders you brought more so what changes it now ??? read more

I ordered three entrees and one appetizer totaling $73 and there was something wrong with everything except for one dish. However, the most egregious of them all was the four cheese, mac and cheese with honey pepper chicken. Take a look at what they advertise vs what they served me. There was absolutely no sauce or cheese on my pasta. No. And no, it wasn't buried underneath the pasta either. This is the second time I've had a horrible experience with this location and there won't be a third. I DO NOT RECOMMEND visiting this establishment. read more

so I normally don't eat applebee's but I was in the mood for ribs and this was the only place close that sold them. I should have waited; the ribs were horrible; cleary they were sitting under a heat lamp or something. the meat fell off the bone, but they were dry as dust. the garlic mash potato'es had zero garlic, I think they just sprinkled garlic powder on them. I did curbside, and the lady was very nice (make sure you always tip, they are paid less than minimum wage) I don't think I will be going to applebee's again. read more

this place is disgusting!! practically empty and flys flying all around our table on the light i couldn't even finish my food since i was so disgusted had to get an appetizer instead read more

3/29/2021. I was so to read the reviews about bad food and service. We come to the Waynesboro, PA restaurant and always amazed how clean the restaurant is. The food has also been fresh and delicious. The service has never been bad. Some servers have been more friendly but that is normal. Who ever is manager, you have good employees!! read more

this applebees is very different from the other ones I've been to, I like that the bar has its own area. good food and the staff was nice

Not so much a fan. The bar staff are far from friendly. Admittedly they were rather busy, but still a hello would suffice. All bar staff that I've known have greeted you upon seeing you. Even when they know it may be a while until they can get around to serving you. The food is not to my taste. Very little for a veggie to eat. Some places are willing to make small changes to a dish. Not here, it's their way or the highway. Thus I was saddled with a crappy appetizer for a main. However the place is popular with the population of the 'boro. So it's obviously meeting the niche it has in the market. It's just not for me. read more

Have not been to Applebees for years and we decided to go again as it was close by and too hot to go somewhere further away. I was in total shock by the high price of food for what you get. I got a ribeye steak and wife got a sirloin steak. Still the same lousy mashed potatoes that were cold and same old broccoli. My steak taste like salty chewing gum and half of it was fat and grizzle. Wife could not eat her steak as it was so tough. It was so cold inside Applebees too that you needed a coat to wear.. but still people were flocking in to eat... NEVER AGAIN!!! will step foot inside any Applebees... read more

I paid for a gallon of lemonade, and they delivered 4 cups of lemonade- the delivery driver said that they didn't have the container for a gallon. So I drove to Applebees and they said they didn't have containers so I asked for a refund- 2 minutes later they came from the back with a gallon of lemonade. I'm working out of town- I requested 1 fork and knife & 4 napkins. They sent me nothing- never again! read more

Just left and the service was amazing, don't pay attention to the prior negative reviews. Here just to give it the 5 stars it deserves. Waitress Lisa was amazing at customer service! read more

Stopped for a quick dinner and sat at the bar. Leeann was the bartender and waited on my brother in law and myself. She let us take a photo of a Blue Lagoon cocktail she was making for another customer. Leeann got our orders in quickly and efficiently and was hospitable. She's got great customer service skills. I had the spicy Cajun shrimp on pasta which was wonderful. All in all a great experience. We'd go back. read more

Chipotle Grilled Chicken nachos are pretty excellent!! I also had some Beer Cheese Pretzels, fries dipped in leftover Beer Cheese and some Spicy Texas BBQ riblets! Everything was pretty tasty but the nachos I had for a meal. You gotta get some read more

Place was practically empty and yet took almost 5 minutes to be greeted and given a table. Food was the quality of McDonald's but much worse. Ordered mixed drinks and there was basically no alcohol in the drinks. Steak was ordered medium rare and it comes out like a completely overcooked piece of shoe leather. Told the server steak was wrong and the second steak comes out wrong temperature as well. The complete meal was garbage, manager refused to speak with me about the issues. Only thing eaten was the appetizer. I refused to pay for the rest of the food, it was cooked wrong and didn't even eat it. read more

What a huge disappointment, food was no less than utterly disgusting. Worse yet bar/wait staff were certainly aware that food was far less than on par yet had no issue with serving it. Bar staff was lackadaisical at best, seemed very disinterested, very few people seated at bar yet service was extremely slow to the point of nonexistent, yet had no problem with standing in corner talking to other staff whilst customers at bar and seated at tables could not be provided tableware, condiments or drinks. Food was cold, cheese congealed, tasteless and plated in a haphazardly fashion. Will not return! read more

I received the worst customer service from your employee Abby this evening during my car side delivery. From her hanging up the phone after clarifying "is this what you're trying to say to me" - to the huff off after I asked for the mustard dip for my pretzel sticks that wasn't included with my order - sorry Abby, I am usually a very generous tipper -but courtesy goes a long way, and unfortunately I didn't receive that from you! read more

Working at a facility nearby, been here for lunch twice. First time had a burger, it was slightly better than "fair". Had some type of crispy taco appetizer that was pretty tasty. Second visit I had the pasta with chicken tenders in it. It was kinda of like a microwave t.v dinner. I do not recommend it. The tenders were tossed on top, dry, like an after thought. I cut them up and mixed them in. If I was hammered or high, it probably would have been a good meal. I will say though, my service has been spectacular both visits. Third visit will be in September... read more

The creamy Parmesan chicken was quite good. It was served with white rice and spinach. Yum yum. The service is very friendly. read more

Applebee's Grill + Bar - Part of the new menu. Yummy!! - American Near Me - Waynesboro, Pennsylvania

Well our server ABBY was totally sweet HOWEVER we came to watch football to find out that they don't have NFL ticket so unless it's on regular TV you're not watching it. We ordered a bottled beer and a much Bahama Mama AND appetizers. We got our FOOD way before our drinks. Ate our food STILL no drinks...... 5 minutes after we had the dishes cleared bam drinks FINALLY made by the bartender. Our server had to ask him to make her drinks AGAIN. RIDICULOUS...... read more

Good as far as Applebees goes. I've had issues but they've always fixed them ...food is good for the most part. 1/2 price apps hit the spot . Service is usually friendly . read more

I want to Applebee's once with my son and I had to keep asking for his milk by the time we were done with our food that finally brought the milk that was a couple years ago I won't be going back there again read more

Don't bother. The food at Applebee's has been getting more and more mediocre as the years go on, with frozen boxed food. My husband and I ordered the 2 for $20 steak. I get it, not a steakhouse, but If you order rare steak, and one comes out cooked to a crisp while the other rare, but about as chewy as a leather boot, time to call it quits. read more

This Applebees is very well kept. The servers very tentative. The bar useally well stocked and rotating draft beer selection. The only reason i don't come here more often is the portion sizes are not very big for what you pay read more

Once again we tried again and disappointment we went on a Sunday at 445 was not busy we got seated and sat there for 15 min and no one even looked at us we looked at the waitress and tried to get there attention but no one helped. We had our 1 year old with us so we were in a hurry as always so we walked out on my way out we saw a manager we said you can give our table up because no one seated us no one touched us in 20 minutes the manager was gossiping with the hostesses there is no management whatsoever here / this is a another review we were with friends and they wanted to get curbside to go we did not but being good friends we did and yet again bad service my daughter got a burger slider that looked like a piece of coal and I got a burger that looked liked someone threw up in my box " look at pic" this place is by far the worst place we have ever been too just sucks cuz there is not much in this town to eat. Don't eat here simple read more

Applebee's Grill + Bar - Quesadilla burger was cold was pink on the inside and the box says no pink, also does not look appetizing at all - American Near Me - Waynesboro, Pennsylvania

A nice go to for a meal. Hit or miss on their meals. They have really scaled down their portions. Seems like a full portion is now like a half portion. Going there with my siblings for a pre Christmas get together. Hope the kitchen is upnbn to par. By the way, no call ahead seating. read more

So we tried Applebees when it opened and it has been a nightmare the first time and the second time. What a fiasco!"Genau" ueber frau p. There is so little to choose from when it comes to eating out in Wayensboro. Our food was okay but the order was messed up. The wrong desert was delivered. There should be more of an effort to try to attract and keep your customers! I'm giving it 2 stars as opposed to one ONLY because they serve Pepsi! read more

Awful. Food is bad and so is the service. This was before lockdown. They also forgot items on a to go order. Don't go there anymore.

The worst restaurant I've ever been to. Can't mess up nachos, right? Wrong. Greasy chips. Added lots of salt?! Why? A side of Garlic green beans were watery and gross. Green beans are in season people. It's not that complicated. Better food at HersheyPark! Skip this place unless you enjoy wasting money and food. read more

I've never been a fan of Applebee's. When a new one opened in the area we decided to give it a try though. After all, it was newly decorated and should be clean and inviting. We were finally able to give it a try. (Suffice it to say there isn't much to choose from around here and lines were long at first.) We have tried it twice now and won't go back. As I said, Applebee's, well, corporate in general, isn't my idea of a good place to eat and relax... I like local flavor. This Applebee's though, has to be at the bottom of the barrel of all Applebee's establishments. The greeters are so unfocused on their job that you feel like you are interrupting them. Already, the "new" feels sticky and there is a mildew smell throughout. Our food, on the most recent visit was just horrible. If we were true food critics, we would have sent it back to the kitchen in disgust. I had a talaipia fillet that was to be served with steamed veggies of the day and rice pilaf. The fillet was smothered in some sort of cheese sauce (not mentioned on the menu) and topped with greasy old bread crumbs--also not mentioned. It was also very salty! Too salty for my taste. The rice pilaf was cold and dry and I doubt the veggies spent more than two seconds in the steamer. They were cold and certainly not fresh. Our sweet ice tea looked cloudy, though it was acceptable. My partner order shrimp fettucine--floating in butter and too hot to consume for at least 10 minutes. Service was better than our first visit there and I realize it's not the server's fault that the food is bad. Come on folks... if you expect to have customers you are going to have to do better than this. read more

Terrible, terrible food. Greasy tortilla chips with appetizer, cold steak, and undercooked broccoli. MSG overload. For some reason this location always disappoints. read more

I have some issues with this location. There is a change in the last few months where you are met at the door by someone who asks "Has anyone greeted you yet?". We've had 4 people approach us in one visit, and not one has actually greeted us, just inquired about anyone else having some so. The hostess stand layout makes it so it is often unattended, so it can be fairly awkward standing there for a prolonged period of time. There is also some bizarre practice of having to " prepare" every table, again leaving the hostess stand unattended. Invariably wherever they have placed our highchairs is not where we need them so there is an awkward period of shuffling chairs and children while a hostess stands and stares at us. Recently we had a very bad experience. The hostess Paulina was simply awful. She was rude, making comments about how the restaurant was busy because "all these people bring all these kids out for a free meal". She was audibly huffing and puffing at us trying to get situated, but couldn't just hand me the menus. She kept staring at us the entire meal. The food is average, though I've had some that is pretty bad. I had some sort of chicken and shrimp served on a skillet with potatoes. The potatoes were inedible, burned so bad that they were like charcoal dust. There was " no manager available" and no attempt made to correct the problem. The one bright spot that keeps us returning, Annette. She is a fantastic server, and goes out of her way to make sure your order is correct. read more

Went here last week. Usually I'm not a big Applebee's fan (or chain restaurant fan in general), but their brunch burger was to die for! It comes with a fried egg on top. The others at my table ordered steak and veggies and a chicken tender platter and they seemed to like their food also. Only downside is that the server did not seem too knowledgable about the beers they offered. Otherwise, I had a good experience and wouldn't mind stopping by Applebee's the next time we are in Waynesboro. read more

Love the new menu! Great service and Adrienne and Annette are awesome servers! Come in on a Thursday or Friday for their specials!!

Don't waste the time or money. There are so many other better places. The food isn't good and the service isn't good. Don't settle for this place. read more

Although I haven't always had great food or experiences here, they appear to have really worked on updating their interior and service within the last year since having been here last. Our latest visit was pleasant. Staff and management were great to deal with. Hoping that our next visit continues to increase our expectations of the service at this location. read more

There's not much variety in dining options in Waynesboro, so my wife and I eat at Applebee's quite a bit! I love the food and service we get there! I like to try different foods, but tend to always get the same thing because I'm hooked! read more
