• Take-Out

• Drive-Through

“I used to be a huge fan of Chick-fil-A and would eat there at least once a week. However, as my city expanded and developed, the chicken they serve back home became incredibly salty, spicy, and dry. Coming here brought back all the feelings from years ago—the casual, friendly conversations, the warm smiles, the fast yet patient service, and of course, the delicious chicken sandwiches. I will absolutely add this stop to my road trips in the future—even if it means making a detour just to come here.”

“Unique today. Cajun chicken biscuit was so dry it cracked when a piece broken off. Gravy from the biscuits and gravy was sawdust gravy. No sausage. Horrible meal today. Have had good experiences but this was a total disaster. To top it off would not give me my receipt so I could stub. That was odd. Think meal was eleven something. Will try again and hope this was just a bad day.”

“Went through the drive thru last night. They must be short handed as I paid they brought the food to the car in front of me then asked me to pull up to wait for mine. The classic sandwich was good. The chicken salad was lacking the pecan in its name and was a little dry. Still better "fast" food than most others on the parkway.”

“Wanted to shout out the crew at the Bristol Va store #037662. We have been ordering from this location for about 6-8 months and the staff (Ashley in particular) has been gracious and making a seemingly mundane task of ordering food a fun experience. The food is always fresh and quality is great. We had an issue with the last pizza not being very hot and spoke with Ashley tonight prior to ordering and she ensured the door dash driver placed the pizza in a delivery bag to keep it hot. Pizza came piping hot and yet another fast and great order from this location and staff, they deserve some kudos.”

“I drove thru Bristol and thought I give this Wendy's a try. The chicken sandwich was absolutely perfect, best I had anywhere in a long time. It also looked great, not just like somebody threw it together. Perfect. The French Fries were perfect as well, crunchy, not too much fat taste, not too salty, perfect again. On my next pass thru Bristol, I will stop there again!!!”

“I went for a Taco Salad last night ticket #3349 restaurant #00010925 Volunteer Parkway Bristol, Tn. I was served the slimiest, nastiest, grossed salad EVER for $9.28. It looked like a Science project. I had to drive ALL the way back and go in this time instead of the drive thru. I ask for a salad that was fresh. The lady looked into the frig were they are stored shook her head but didn't trash the other nasty ones they planned on serving but did request for me a new one fresh made as I requested. Was scared to eat it even because the man that made it was highly pissed when he brought it from the back. I never got an apology for my trouble, no manager spoke to me to apologize. Stood there forever and when I ask for a small cup for a drink since I had been waiting so long that was refused. I shall never eat there again. Times are tough and just to come home still scared to eat what they gave me because they were pissed is sad. Lesson learned $9.28 down the drain 😔 threw it away as well as my relationship with them.”

“I went through the drive thru yesterday (7/3/26) around 6pm and received great service. The cashier that took my order was accurate, friendly and helpful. They were kind when I added on an M&M McFlurry at the payment window. I know, maybe I shouldn't have done that but I had forgotten to order at the speaker. I received the correct modifications to my burger and got all the sauces I asked for as well as an appropriate amount of napkins and did get the spoon and straw, some places forget those. I was pleased with my order and know that this is a location that I can return to for accurate and good service.”

“If you ever need to cater an event,the Bristol Panda Express is the place to call. They have the food ready when promised, the food is always fresh and hot, and all the items you order are there. Many restaurants could learn from my experience with Panda Express. They open at 10am, and I caterer a ton of meals each month for my job. I have never had to wait like I do from other places, and the staff here is incredibly nice and professional. I have worked with the manager Corey a few times and he is top notch. Now let’s talk about the food, value for the price, and ease of placing the order and picking it up. The food is always hot, fresh, and delicious. The value of the quality of food, portion size, and variety are top tier. The apps for a group like the chess rangoons or egg rolls are really good. And as stated earlier, the food is ready on time and the entire staff is so helpful. 10/10 for this Panda Express”

“Had the chicken fingers and wings. Wanted to try the new dry rubs. Chicken fingers were hot an delicious. Order was messed up, ordered traditional wings but got boneless instead. Restaurant fixed order. Boneless wings were overcooked and not very good with a dry rub. These wings would be better sauced. The replacement wings with Nashville hot rub were tasty and fresh but could use a lot more flavor. Remaining part of meal included the fries an bread which were delicious. Staff was very friendly.”

We place our order through the app so that we could collect rewards for our account. She was super friendly and helpful. The food came out hot and fresh (all but the fries) in a timely manner. On a side note I really miss the buffet, used to come by and eat there when I was a kid.”
