Placed an online order, website said order would be ready 15 mins after placing order but in fact wasn’t ready for 45 minutes. Employees have zero urgency to produce orders, and zero apology for not doing their job. Employee blamed management for not scheduling enough employees. Go figure!
I’ve been a loyal customer of Straw Hat and have enjoyed several great experiences—until today. I accidentally placed an order at the wrong location and immediately called both stores to try and correct it. The team member at the Hageman location was incredibly kind and willing to help transfer the order to the Ashe location without issue.
However, when I called the Ashe location, I spoke with an employee named Chris, who was dismissive and unhelpful. He claimed confusion and asked me to call back. When I did, I was fortunate to get Leslie on the phone, who was more than happy to assist. Unfortunately, I could hear Chris in the background pushing back against her efforts to provide great customer service, saying he wouldn’t approve the transfer.
This experience left me deeply disappointed. Two team members were kind, understanding, and willing to fix an honest mistake. Meanwhile, Chris’s unwillingness to help and his negative attitude stood in stark contrast. I live just two minutes away from the Ashe location, and it’s disheartening to be treated this way—especially when both locations are part of the same company.
I truly hope Chris receives guidance on how to better support customers and work as a team. A simple act of grace and cooperation would have gone a long way.

I was really looking forward to trying this place, but unfortunately, I left feeling disappointed. I spent $77 on a large pizza, wedges, fried pickles, and four drinks. The pizza took about 25 minutes to arrive, which was fine but by the time my family and I finished eating and went to ask for a box, the kitchen staff suddenly ran out and brought the wedges and pickles we had been waiting over 40 minutes for. It honestly felt like a tactic to avoid giving us a refund.
The woman at the front counter wasn’t very welcoming and lacked basic customer service skills. On top of that, the booth wall where we were seated had grease stains, and there was visible trash on the floor and around the ordering area. For the price, the quality and portion sizes just didn’t match up. Unfortunately, I won’t be returning.

You come here and spend $40.00 on a little pizza and potato’s and they won’t give you any ranch without paying extra which I feel is not good business. For me it’s the little things that make a place worth going back to. The food has to be good and the service should be great. This food was ok but overpriced for what you get. I went when they first opened and it was good but they were helpful and they provided ranch at no cost which might seem trivial but in this day it all makes a difference This time I got a side of attitude with my order.

Will never come to this place again. Worst customer service from the ordering to getting our food. Who charges for ketup when you order wedges. Seriously must be a hurting business.
Great place to visit and staffing is amazing 🤩

Placed 100 dollar order. Wife wasn't aware of what was ordered. At the time of pickup, she signed the merchant receipt, but wasn't given a receipt and brought home the food she was given. Noticed 2 liter soda was missing, no biggie. We called and the lady was reactive and rude, stating she gets busy and we could come get a 2 liter today or tomorrow if we wanted to. She blamed my wife for not checking the receipt, she never gave her, rather than apologizing or taking any accountability for her own mistake. We will never return.
Beware of their incompetence and poor customer service!

Waited and hour and didn't get our food. I requested a refund which they gave me, but never once did they apologize. The girls in the back were too busy chit-chatting but their personal lives instead of trying to help the customer. Never will I go there again.
