My order was a to-go, 2 1/3 well known Hardee's Thickburgers, because they currently have a deal where you can buy one get one free, and I wanted to take advantage of the deal. The price was excellent for two big burgers, and I thought I received an excellent deal for my money, but I was wrong, it was all a trap. It all began when I walked in the store, and was greeted by one of the employees. As I started talking to her, she suddenly walks away and told another employee to simply take over. I received with a grouchy tone, and a horrible attitude. Disregarding the attitude, I was polite to her, because I did not want them to spit in my food, as it was seemly hinted if I were to be showing any apparent notice of her bad attitude. Disregarding, I waited to expect something great, such as a hot, steaming, delicious burger with an alluring smell. Once again I was disappointed by the continuance of horrible service, and the latter dissatisfying food, which will be discussed later. When I received my food, I asked for ketchup because I like to sauce up my meal a little. However, when I asked for ketchup, the cashier, gave me a dirty look and asked me in an annoyed tone, "Ketchup? Do you really need ketchup?" I answered politely, "Yes, please," and she simply shoved few ketchup packets into my hand, and quickly turned around to talk to her coworkers, seemingly to act like if I was not there. I did not say anything disrespectful because I did not think there was a reason, and I simply walked away with a thank you. Now, the ultimate disappoint arose as soon as I got in my car. This is when I finally get to smell the food. As I sat my Hardee's bag in the passenger seat next to me, I smelled something burnt. I picked up the bag again, and smell the inside of the bag, and indeed I was welcomed with something unimaginable unpleasant. It was as if I put my old sock that I wore for 3 days, and put it over the grill, burning it, then putting it between two pads of cardboard, and handed off to a random customer walking through a store named Hardee's. As native as I was, I thought it was something normal. However, I think wrong. As I return to Penn State Harrisburg's library to eat my long awaited burger. I was ultimately disgusted. The meat had no apparent history of being cook or even microwaved, as obvious from the un-melted cheese that was just thrown on top of the burger. The meat was really really cold, and have no sign of any that was once existing heat. In addition, the edges of the meat, about a quarter of an inch all around the perimeter was burnt. The smell of cold burnt meat was strong that if I were to feed "The Most American" burger to Captain America, he will vow to stop fighting for america. The taste of the burnt cold meat lasted in my mouth for almost half an hour. I was constantly bashing my face and mouth with water in the slight hope of removing the disgusting taste from my poor taste buds. In the name of Lord, how can there be something so horrifying and torturous to my taste buds. I wished the taste of the food was the end of the terror. After 5 minutes of consuming a single bite of the "unknown substance" My body started to tell me something, my stomach started to growl. The growling was unreal, as the person that is next to me thought I was a animal. As I ran for the santuturary and continued to blast away the public toilets, I made a unforgettable memory. There is company that is now currently advertising for their food, I quote, "Delicious food, to fit your lifestyle." As I snickered at the ad, and I thought to myself, "I do not believe it is my lifestyle, it may fit others that have a unique taste-bud and love to face a challenge for both themselves and their toilet, but it definitely will not fit mine." My trip to Hardee's, can be concluding with a two words, "EXTREME DISAPPOINTMENT!"Thank you everyone for reading my review, I hope this may help any future customer in deciding their next meal. So in the end I am not saying Hardee's food is bad, it is just the fact that it does not fit my...
Read moreI really hate to give Hardee's such a low ranking here. But it unfortunately earned it. I remember when you could find a Hardee's as easily as a McDonald's. Now they are far and few between. So when I go to one I expect a decent experience. Which I usually get. But not at this one. When we arrived to order it took almost five minutes for some one to come to the counter so we could place our order. To put it perspective here, we were the only people at the counter; followed by one car in the drive thru and one person in the dinning room eating. Now while waiting and during our order the phone was constantly ringing. Until the one worker picked it up and told the person on the phone that they were very busy. Again at the time they had one guest at the counter (us), one car in the drive thru, and one eating. Making the person on the phone think that they where having a dinner rush. Now onto the food my wife ordered their new CBC burger. I tried a bite of it and found it rather dried out. Now Hardee's doesn't have the best burgers around, but they are never dried out. I myself got the Ultimate roast beef to try. Now don't get me wrong a would expect it to bit a on the greasy side. Since it contains some bacon and cheese on it. Now I don't expect to see so much grease to fall out of it like a drenched wash cloth either. This ended up pretty much ruining this sandwich. So in my final words. If you are planning to visit a Hardee's. Avoid the one in Middletown PA, unless they have a complete overhaul to the place including...
Read moreWe ate in the restaurant. The food that we got was decent, but we weren't given the cookies that were supposed to come with our meals. Then after we got our food our son was still hungry so my husband went up to order the special that was advertised on the napkin dispenser on our table, I believe it was the happy hour cheeseburger sliders for $1.50. The woman at the register said that this deal was no longer available and that they didnt even have these burgers in the store. When my husband questioned why it was still advertised on every table in the restaurant the woman was not very polite and tried to make him look unreasonable for questioning why they didnt have it if it was advertised on ours and every table in the restaurant. I dont believe we will be patronizing any Hardee's in the near future, we're pretty disappointed in today's...
