We have tried to avoid Applebee's for more than 5 years. We receive gift cards to them occasionally from friends and relatives. So we go there to save a few bucks on dinner maybe once a year. Every time we go, we are more than dissatisfied. For the life of me I can’t figure out why we keep going back. It happened again last night.
We stopped at the one in Bedford because we were late coming back from the soccer tournament in Richmond, VA. We had a $25 gift card and figured it would cover more than half of our dinner there (instead of paying full price someplace else). It would also give us a chance to get rid of the card. We hadn’t been to one of their restaurants in over a year and thought maybe things had improved.
To make a long story short (I'll fill in the details next post) Applebee’s fails yet again. The saddest part of the Applebee’s saga for us is that it isn’t one restaurant. It has been in 5-6 different locations, in at least 4 different cities in Virginia. We have not had good service and/or food in an Applebee’s in probably 7 or more years.
Needless to say, I still have a $25 gift card that we were trying to get rid of. At this point I want to sell it because we sure don’t want to go back. Maybe someone will trade us a Chili’s or Ruby Tuesday’s gift card for it. Those are places we actually enjoy eating. Even McDonald’s would be a better gift card than Applebee’s.
