What diners say — our read

Worth separating two things on this listing: how the food is received, and how the kitchen inspects. Reviews that raise front-of-house average just 2.3 stars — this is where the complaints concentrate. After that, wait times appears most often — 41% of the corpus, averaging 2.9.

A third strand, the state of the room, appears in 18% of them at 3.7 stars. Of the 17 rated reviews, 8 sit at four stars or better and 9 at two or below. The single most common rating left here is 1 star (7 of 17). Dates on these reviews range from Nov 2025 to May 2026.

Against that, the kitchen inspects well — an A (92/100), 1 high-priority violations at the most recent DBPR visit. The visit behind that grade was November 13, 2025. That puts it ahead of 49% of graded kitchens in Brevard County. For specifics, the last inspection cited food from approved source.

The weak part of this listing is the experience, not the sanitation — those are different failures. Full reviews follow below in the order they were left.

    The cleanliness is actually pretty decent, except that there is a foul sewer stench coming from the restroom.

  • May 19, 2026

    Very clean. Workers were very nice. Service was great! Will go there again!

  • May 15, 2026

    The doors were locked at 5:45PM on a Friday. Plenty of workers inside but extremely rude when I asked why the door was locked and I couldn’t get in to pick up my online order. What’s the point of ordering pick up if I have to wait in the drive thru?

  • April 14, 2026

    They forgot my nuggets :( and food was cold. Just double check on your way out before driving off. Lady on the speaker was nice though!

  • April 9, 2026

    Prices are a LOT different on website than at window. $3.99 bacon burger .99 fries and .99 baked potato was $15.80 at the window. Will not be back. Shame because food was good. This is the Wendys by the college on Wickham.

  • April 1, 2026

    Very slow drive thru and under staffed

  • March 4, 2026

    I now can see why nobody was in there. At first I thought that everything was ok until I saw how dirty everything was the whole place was a mess the kitchen too. Personal very rude making you to order as fast as you can. Burgers were very old and nasty.

  • March 2, 2026

    We stopped there at 10pm and it was locked, despite the sign saying that it was open until 1am. An employee was sitting inside and ignored us.

  • February 27, 2026

    This place should be shut down, doors are locked at 530pm drive, through open, wrong order had people standing in the rain walking back to the drive widow.

  • January 20, 2026

    Horrible service. I didn't even order. Had me standing there for 5 minutes.

    0 stars for this Wendy's location. I'm an insulin dependent diabetic and luckily I wasn't suffering from an emergency case of low blood sugar when my boyfriend and I attempted to order food at the drive through at 12:45AM - 15 minutes prior to closing time - according to Google and Wendy's own website; we were told the restaurant was closed (to which I responded "Aren't you supposed to be open 'till 1:00AM?) and the employee stated "it was just what her manager said"... I was very calm and polite when I then asked why the location needed to be closed early, but was given no explanation or apologies for the inconvenience. I'm going to assume this is a simple case of employees being too lazy to do their jobs 'till actual closing time. I sincerely doubt there was some genuine urgent emergency that prohibited that employee and that manager on duty from making me my chicken nuggets with fries or a baconator. I hope I'm incorrect, and that there was a reasonable and hopefully untragic emergency that unfolded behind the Wendy's walls - but once again - I HIGHLY doubt it. Why am I so angry for being denied fast food?... Well, now I'm actually suffering from an episode of low blood sugar and need to end this rant and eat whatever I can scrape up from ingredients in my fridge. The irony. All because this Wendy's is unreliable and only open when employees and managers deem that they feel like working.

  • January 13, 2026

    Unbelievable that $23 was spent on hardly nothing. But the fries were super hot and fresh, and the burger was great.

  • December 29, 2025

    Good value meals.

  • December 16, 2025

    One of the few Wendy's surviving in Brevard County, FL

  • December 12, 2025

    to be honest, this location is terrible.

  • November 13, 2025

    Quick, accurate, friendl.

  • November 5, 2025

    I work near this location so I go there about 3-4 times a month. Orders are always accurate, quick service and friendly associates. Recommend this location.
