They closed the drive thru 30 min early didn’t acknowledge us for over 10 min so my boyfriend tried going inside to order. As soon as we pull up and parked the worker slams the door. A costumer from inside comes out just as my boyfriend gets to the door and the worker stops him from coming inside and tells him they’re closing early (with the rudest tone). This would have been fine if they weren’t so rude about it and had at least acknowledge us when we...
