I had the double cheeseburger, tots, and the cinnamon toast crunch shake (first time eating here). Overall, I was pleased with how fresh the food was (burger was very tasty and not dry). I'll be back to try something different.

We’ve enjoyed the food at this Wayback location for years, and we’re really impressed by their new wraps! We tried them all, and my favorite has to be the zesty chipotle chicken, but each one is great for a snack or easy meal. Great milkshakes, sides, and burgers every time.

The burgers weren't what I expected. I wanted the taste of a burger that was off the grill like at home. Disappointed. I do have to say my order was ready when I got there and the staff was great.
