The last time I ate at Crapplebees was about 15 yrs ago when it was the only restaurant in the small town we overnighted in.
They BURNED the chicken to a crisp and covered it with cheese, thinking we wouldn’t notice. Then, when I went to the ladies room before we left, there was an Hispanic Crapplebees’ worker taking to someone on her phone in the bathroom stall and came out with her plastic gloves still on her hands and dribbled plain water on the glove tips, not even bothering to remove the gloves or use soap.
Back in 2005, our youngest daughter graduated from high school and we decided to take her to Applebees for her graduation dinner afterwards.
Big mistake…. we ordered, waited forever for our food, they brought us a relish tray and the celery had visible DIRT on it. I told them to take it back, and when they returned it, it STILL had dirt on it. We didn’t eat it. I never got the beer I ordered, and we had to wait over an hour for our food, which we never received.
We had enough- I told the waitress to forget it-we were leaving. I chewed the manager out after paying for my wife’s glass of wine, and he seemed rather unconcerned. After we got home, I fired off an email to Applebees corporate.
There response when I got it- a coupon for a reduction in price for our next visit.
You want to know the best part? THERE WAS ONLY ONE OTHER COUPLE IN THE PLACE.
No, we didn’t go back. I hate that place.
I HOPE THEY ALL CLOSE DOWN…..
