“Consistent food quality and service at this location! Our favorite, easy breakfast spot. And this morning, I was so impressed with Jordan. He went to refill my hot coffee, but came back to apologize since it would be 4-5 minutes for fresh coffee. I declined to wait, but he quickly offered to get me another drink of my choice. I asked him "Even an iced coffee?" Yep, no problem and thank you, Jordan for great service!“

“Came through the drive-thru around lunchtime and had a smooth experience. The person at the window was polite, clear, and made sure the order was right without any hassle. Everything was packed neatly and ready to go. Food was fresh and hit the spot — no complaints at all.“

“Perfect Spot for Families with Kids!
Chick-fil-A is always a reliable go-to for great food, but this location really stands out because of the fantastic kids’ play area. It keeps the little ones entertained and happy, making dining out way more enjoyable for parents. The staff is super friendly and attentive, and the service is quick and efficient. Plus, the food is delicious as always—fresh, tasty, and satisfying for both kids and adults. Highly recommend this Chick-fil-A if you’re looking for a family-friendly dining experience!“

“We came at 7:20/7:30pm. They close at 8. We got a family pack of the grilled nuggets. It took only about five minutes to get it out to us!! Seth, the manager, was awesome! He was super friendly and made sure we had all we needed. He got us sauces and extra bowls, all while we were pretty far away from the restaurant itself. We had to order more nuggets, as the 30ct didnt fill all of us up and it was super quick!! By that time we had about 10 minutes before closing. He assured us that they would not kick us out and was just overall super helpful and friendly!!“

“I love the food here, but they took away my Jalapeño Cheddar Biscuits...🤬“

“Great people working there.“

“Saw the sign on the expressway for this Sonic so I decided to stop off and grab a drink. This is well over a mile off of the expressway. I located it pulled in. It is a very small location compared to others. I placed my order. My drink came out quickly. The employee was very friendly. Overall a good experience, just not a convenient location.“

“I the food was very hot and fresh. the tables needed to be wiped down. and the gravy needed to be thicker it was like water and flys where horrible but in all the food was good and service was fantastic“

“The best Chicken Fingers Ever !!!!! I love the Cane Sauce“

“Love this pizza because you can choose your own toppings and they are unlimited! However, they never seem to have enough employees working, so there is a long wait, even when there aren't many people in the restaurant. It's also a little pricey.“

“Chris and his crew are rockstars! So friendly and courteous!“

“I would not recommend this particular store because of the people that work there. The manager Kelsey and the drive through lady Crystal are extremely rude and they lie about being rude to the customers. When they say something about it, everyone covers each other's back and tells you if you don't like it. Go down the street to chicken Express. San marcus on highway one twenty three“

“Excited for the classic sampler!“

“Always a favorite when we are in town! We have Chicken Express in League City, TX and I think same owners? Chicken is fresh and gravy is delicious. I have no idea why Canes is so popular, they don't even season their chicken-its just flavorless!!
Quick service and food was hot.“

“Great hospitality, great atmosphere, and great sandwiches.“

“Every time I go the food and customer service is always great. It does not matter if I go through the drive-thru, walk in, or order online. My food is always fresh, hot and classically flavored. And when I am able to interact with cashiers/drive-thru staff l'm always greeted and the transaction always go smooth.“

“Clean place. Staff is good. Food is fresh and good.“

“Marcus made this a 5-star experience - there was a promo deal going on and we arrived a few minutes after it expired - but he saw that I was with my kids and empathized as a father himself, and hooked us up anyway. Now I love this Wendy’s specifically because of Marcus!“

“Came in at the start of the new year 1/1. Two gentlemen working, one was cleaning off tables and the other was sweeping in the back having a good time talking. The both greet me as I came in, took my order and got me out within two minutes. We had a good time talking while I was eating. I’d come back everyday if these two were here. Thank you Damon and Dylan for a great time!“

“Down to earth people nice place“

“This is the nearest subway to my office. I come here occasionally for an app order.
They’re always super friendly, working hard, and regularly busy. The place is as clean as a subway can be, but always an enjoyable place for a quick lunch.
Not sure who is in charge of it, but they deserve lots of praise.“

“we moved in to the neighborhood 3 weeks ago and we are absolutely happy with the service we haven been twice to Sonic, and even thou I was missing one of the drinks the first time I told them and they brought it immediately. my 2nd time was today, they are obviously very busy but my food was warm and delicious! they were also fast to take my order and friendly.“

“Been here a quite abit and havent had to many problems with my orders but today i went and got food for my lunch break and I goto drink my drink and it taste weird I open the lid and its water down already suppose to be a dr.pepper which is dark this is not at all“

“Chick-fil-A at Baylor's Student Union Building has been a staple of my campus experience. This quick-service restaurant has consistently provided delicious chicken sandwiches and nuggets, perfect for a busy student's schedule. Its location on the first floor of the Bill Daniel Student Center (SUB) made it incredibly convenient, especially when I was studying in the SUB or heading to morning classes.One thing to note is the menu's simplicity, akin to an airport selection. While it may be limited compared to full-scale Chick-fil-A outlets, the quality and taste of the food remain top-notch. The chicken sandwiches, in particular, have been a delightful and familiar comfort during my time on campus.What makes this location stand out is its commitment to sustainability, as part of a broader initiative within Baylor's dining services. Chick-fil-A at Baylor is part of a food court that includes other dining options like Freshii and Steak 'n Shake, offering a variety of choices for every palate.Whether you're looking for a quick meal between classes or a familiar snack while studying, Chick-fil-A at the Baylor Student Union Building is a reliable and enjoyable choice. The convenience, combined with the quality of the food, makes it a favorite spot for many students like myself“

“My sandwiches were great. It's a quaint subway.

It's attached to a convenience store, and you have to use their bathrooms.

The women's bathroom looked horrible, it was filthy, looked like it hadn't been cleaned in weeks.

Unfortunately, i really needed to potty. I had to squat down, so as not to sit on the nasty toilet.“

“They were very nice and helpful. The cashier was friendly.“

“the food is always fresh and amazing!!!! very friendly and fast service!“

“The best grilled chicken in Waco at a ridiculously affordable price! You really can't go wrong with the Combo($18) which feeds two to three people.PRO TIP: order a Combo, all green sauce, no reds, then drive up the street(25th is a one way for those who don't know) to La Nueva Michoacana paleteria and buy a large horchata with no ice **chef's kiss**“

“I absolutely love Subway and the staff at lunchtime on LaSalle. Bryce, the manager, has a delightful personality that has cheered me up many times and I'm sure he doesn't know it. I was a daily customer for a little while then stopped. When I returned, he remembered me asking where I had been and how I was while making sandwiches. I got to make him laugh for a change when I said my boss said I could leave my cage for lunch again. Lmbo. Thanks Bryce for brightening my days this past year...it's been a hard one for me but when I got to get subway for lunch, you made it a little better.

Parking: Parking is shared with 2 other businesses and can be hard to find a spot during lunch as students from Baylor as well as employees from surrounding businesses eat here.“
