Applebees Has Really Gone Down Hill

United States

We only have one Applebees left in town that I know of and it's really getting run down. We only go there maybe 3 times a year but this time we could really tell the difference. The carpet was in need of replacement. There wasn't any music playing. The vibe of the place was completely dead. We were the only two customers in there. The employees there had an air of not caring. Oh and apparently this one had lost their liquor license, which didn't matter to us because we don't drink, but it's a sign of decline. Have you been to an Applebees lately? How was your experience?

I haven’t been in at least ten years. Maybe more. Never cared for their food.

It's been a couple of years, but it wasn't to bad. A lot of ramps. Not sure how I felt about that. Ramps are a wheelchair user's best friend, sure, but you kind of need to know they're there. Or you could find yourself out of control.

I have never been a fan of Applebee’s, but boy is my family. Everything in that place is always sticky! The food is decent, but it’s crowded, and they take forever. I only go if I’m outnumbered.

I haven't been to Applebees as of late, but last time I was there, I was not impressed.

I do not think that this chain still operates here in Canada. I am sorry for your experience. It sounds like it was a downer, I hope that what you had was 'fresh' at least.
