So the place being dirty didn't necessarily bother me. However, what bothered me the most was when…read morethere was someone in the drive thru wanting their order to be taken. The person said "hello?" A couple times and I get it, you have a right be annoyed with people who do that cause I've worked in a drive thru and it can suck sometimes. But then to talk about it and loudly make fun of the customer in front of other customers or loudly to where everyone in the store can hear you, isn't decent at all. All of the workers carried on about it for at least 10 minutes after the encounter. It's Burger King, I don't expect any drive thru establishment to be super "professional" but at least be decent humans and be angry/annoyed without every customer hearing you.

I normally have a lot of energy. On Saturday, I did a road trip from Bloomington, MN to Des Moines,…read moreIA. I'd say between Rochester, MN and Dows, IA, I felt sleepy. It was odd. I had a decent amount of sleep the night before. I was rested. I had breakfast and was hydrated. I felt like a nap. When I saw Dows Junction, it was the perfect place to pull over. I needed to fill up my rental car with gas. After that, I decided to get a quick bite to eat at the Arby's that's a part of Dows Junction. There was a drive-thru. I tried it out. I had the nicest, personable man take my order. The two beef and cheddar sandwiches for $7 caught my attention. I love the onions on top of the bun, so I knew that I had to have it. Arby's still has happy hours from 2 pm to 5 pm. I was here for these hours, but my heart wanted the beef and cheddar sandwiches. I got to the pickup window and handed the man my credit card. The transaction went smoothly. I promptly got my food. I thanked the man. He wished me a good day. I reciprocated and left. I drove over to a parking spot and chowed down on one sandwich. The roast beef was yummy. It's what you'd expect at an Arby's. The cheddar was oozing out a bit, but not to the point where eating this sandwich was super messy. The bun was yummy, especially with the onions on top. After eating the first sandwich without getting it all over me, I decided to eat the second one as I continued driving down. I was definitely more alert. I needed food. I figure that I needed a nap because I had an unexpected nose bleed the day before. It probably threw my system off and I simply needed food this day to rebalance everything. I had a great experience here. I'm thankful that I got to fuel my car and me with the BP and Arby's, respectively, located steps away from each other. (395)

More like we have crappy food, service, and one burger costs 40 dollars, and the only people that eat there are either drug dealers or too lazy to walk across the street to Mcdonalds.

When they tried to give me order it was obviously sitting there for a long time, was completely melted and the worker was upset when I asked to have it remade. They remade the custard but didn't redo the shake. Shake was terrible! They had no order to anything. Someone was making custards and just putting them on a counter. People putting together orders had to guess what each one was. I'm sure plenty of people got the wrong thing as I watched workers just shrug their shoulders and put a custard on the tray because they couldn't figure out which one was for what order. Apparently they need better process and training. Would not go there again.
