Default New Wendy's on 466 closed!!!!!!

Stopped by to get a frosty around 5 pm today. Sign in window stating sorry we are closed....no staff!!

With a new 7/11 under construction next door and new Dairy Queen down the street.....and all the other new businesses under construction in and around TV.....where is the staff going to come from?

Ran into similar problems at doctor's office this week.
Had to reschedule lab work because there was nobody availalble to do the work.

Not much discussion by civic and private leaders about solutions to an obvious growing problem.

Build it and they will come currently needs repair.....and the new businesses continue to build!?

I was looking forward to going there again.

It is just to the south of Aldi's on 301.



11639 WILL ODELL AVE

OXFORD, FL 34484

We got some burgers a few weeks ago there.

Probably due to lack of customer’s they don’t take cash. plus kind of off beaten path for villager’s.

Let’s see how many employees does it take when don’t need order taker’s or cashiers?

I don’t know about the drive through, I would imagine it was full service?

If I had that Wendy’s franchise, I’d really be worried about making my required monthly payments to the parent Corp. This is a heck of a time to open a new place. Hope they make it.

It is kind of hard to get to right off from CR466. You have to go through the Aldi's parking lot or south on 301.

They are building a new Dairy Queen?

Good, because the new one in Leesburg sucks.

We visited that Wendy’s drive thru to try their new French Fries , long wait was told 1 fryer was down finally a server came out after we had moved over onto the side parking lot with our order and two free shakes to repay for the long wait , good. compensation for bad service but not a good indicator for a new restaurant.

It’s easy entry and exit from/to 301S. I visited last week. Used drive-thru. No problem. No inside ordering yet.
