6. ARE YOU READY TO HANDLE
CUSTOMER SERVICE ISSUES
PROPERLY?
By: Ellen Beakes Irwin | 4/17/2010
I have always liked Applebees...with that said, my hubby and I came in to the one in
Kinston a few weeks ago and what a shock! It was a Wednesday around 5pm, there
were very few people there and what terrible service we had. We waited for 40 minutes
after ordering...nothing came....asked our server 3 times to at lease bring us our drinks...
they never came so we left! And we weren’t the only ones that had that problem, we
overheard several other tables with the same complaint. Ruby Tuesday’s got ya’ll
beat....and yes that is where we went after not being served by Applebees. Needless
to say we will never be back. And since then everyone I have spoken with about
Applebees have said only negative things...wake up ya‘ll! Word of mouth can make or
break a business!
