Local of the area. Years ago it was a Miami Subs, and was turned into a Wendy’s in the late 90s-Early 2000s. The owner was super cool and the building has barely aged in the two and a half decades that its existed. He took very good care of the building and they always got good buisiness. A shame they shut it down, but that road’s always been competitive with mcdonalds and burger king a half mile away.

Unfortunately main reason they closed was because of the staffs poor attitude. Kids of plum from gen z are way too disrespectful and I only say that because I'm one of them and I don't understand how they can be so irritating

An awesome video, Wallie! 👍👍👍👍👍 I like the solarium as well. Over the years I have cut down eating at fast food restaurants, though Wendy's is my favorite place to eat a burger. The first time that I ate at Wendy's was down in Morgantown, WV and that was way back when Wendy's had the reprint newspaper headlines on the dining area tables. The Morgantown Wendy's location was off Interstate 79 south, the star city exit. I really miss Wendy's retro aesthetics. As for all fast food restaurants, they unfortunately scream 90s era or the dreaded shoe box design.
@Elizabeth-tb5whАй бұрын
I was a manager of a Wendy’s in Charleston in the late eighties when they knocked that front wall out and built the solariums. And the tables all had that retro newsprint and bentwood chairs. And the stained glass lights. I ended up buying one of the lamp shades years ago that is still hanging above my dining room table. I loved the older Wendy’s. The newer ones are kind of cold looking!
@catsarecute974Ай бұрын
I hope they put another restaurant or fast food restaurant here. Plum doesn’t have many fast food restaurants and restaurants in general. I think they should move the subway down here so they can get a drive thru. Plum has about 5 car washes, so I hope it’s not a car wash or a bank that goes here.

There is one just like that that closed down about 4 months ago by me. It was old like that. Still had the cut out pieces to slide in the menu board. No tvs or screens of any kind.

I can tell you for a fact I used to work at this wendys til it closed Dec 2023. I also worked at another wendys located in Lower Burrell PA that closed in Oct 2020. That one is boarded up though. This one was only leased and not owned hence no boards. It was definitely a nice little store to help at.

Very much miss dining at these types of Wendy's. Today's Wendy's look like today's McDonald's, Burger King, Taco Bell, etc. They all look the same, they lack the character they used to have, the character we remember as kids. We can only hope one day they'll bring the original characters back like they are now bringing back the original logos.

On, Detroit's Eastside and there was a Dave Thomas Style Wendy's. The, Franchise Owner has Closed Temporary for Remodeling and posted A,Now Hiring Sign in the Window. Then, the Franchise Owner has Closed Permanently and Left the Now Hiring Sign in the window. And ,the Wendy's Signs are still on the building and the Roadside Signs are still posted. Back in the day, and I remember when Richard Simmons was on the Soap Opera, General Hospital during the 1970's. 1:59

Nice old Wendy's. Looks to be in good shape too. I just couldn't help but laugh about the skidmarks lol. Makes me wonder if they even made it to the bathroom, or did they turn their pants into the underwear motor speedway after doing some smokey barbecue burnouts. Thank you, that definitely put a smile on my face. 😂😂
