So, I love Arby's. This location, not so much. First time I went I ordered the beer battered fish sandwich. The fish tasted like it had been cooked in oil that was long overdue for a change. No biggie. In the states I've lived in, when I'd have a taste for Arby's it's always been for something on their market fresh menu. So that's what I get for getting something fried. I decided to try them again today, because of the advertised market fresh cranberry deep fried turkey wrap and, this time, I wanted to use a $3 market fresh coupon I received in the mail. Initially the gentleman working the drive through took my order, but then came back to say that I could not use the "market fresh" coupon for the "market fresh" wrap I'd ordered. I asked why not, and he explained "because the wrap isn't a market fresh product." Soooo...I was just a little baffled/speechless/perplexed because, while I realize I do not work in the fast food industry, I like to think that my degrees and experience as a nurse practitioner has given me quite a bit of reading and comprehension skills, lol. The drive through menu board noted it as market fresh, as did the website I looked at before leaving my home, and the commercials advertising it. And there was no fine print on the coupon saying that it was excluded. The market fresh coupon I clipped was on the same flyer that was advertising the market fresh wrap I attempted to order. Anyhoo, I thanked him for his time (he really was pleasant, did not have an attitude when telling me I couldn't use the coupon), and I left, choosing to go elsewhere. Sure it was just a couple of dollars more, but it's just the principle. I've lived and worked in 9 other states, and I cannot remember where, but the best presentation regarding customer service was presented by Bob Farrell, "Give em the pickle." https://youtu.be/ISJ1V8vBiiI . Thing is this, I was not asking for anything free, I simply wanted to use the coupon, for the item on the menu it was meant for. I won't return, and I will not recommend. And with so many fast food and restaurant establishments closing, it's really a shame.
