Wanted to visit WC one more time during Lent to get the Fried Clam Strips which are almost as good as the ones they used to have at Howard Johnson's. Tried to call to see if they had them but it bounced to voice mail. Tried to order Online but location was listed as "Offline". Went to Salt n Smoke instead. Probably a better choice overall.
Experience 5 months later. Honesty, sincerity, and good customer service can completely turn an experience around. I have been seeing the 1921 Original Sliders commercial for a bit so I wanted to give them a try. The lobby was closed so I had to go through the drive through. The wait was extremely long, over 30 minutes, the order person completely screwed up my order. I didn't get half of what I ordered, and I might have gotten some of the person behind me order. But here is the saving grace. The order taker explained the situation beforehand and apologized saying they were slammed and there were only two people working inside. WC is now hiring and offering $13.25 starting hourly wage. Higher than the two other burger joints close by, and yet they can not find enough people (this is still below the $15.00 / hour nationwide target starting living wage). Somehow an honest assessment of the situation made me more more tolerant. Perhaps I am feeling a bit benevolent because I saw the "Tyranny of the Yelp Reviewer" episode of South Park last night. Maybe it is just because when folks are honest with us, we can be a bit more tolerant.
I would write a separate review but Google Maps will only let us review one location one time. By the way, the 1921 Slider was pretty good, as were the Fish Nibbles that were substituted for my Onion Rings.
My double cheeseburgers and chocolate milkshake were really good! Fast service inside. I just wish they'd stop closing the inside so early, and get back the three for $3 sandwich deal!
Bit pricey but staff was nice
They ALWAYS do a great job and my food is always fresh and hot. Will return
