Very good friendly happy ad help for staff at Waterlooville Wenzel’s good value coffee great we go in most days

I never got a refund from Wenzel for a latte I did not want after the woman making it picked her nose and the sleep out of her eyes. I found that revolting and have never been back since. Wenzel might refuse to refund me for the money as it was paid by card and the store does not come up as Wenzel but another name, but they will not get my business. Everyone has different hygiene standards and might not wash daily but picking one's nose and eyes while making my coffee is revolting and unacceptable.
Wenzel prices and quality
Wenzel food is very exspensive for what they offer. Not even good quality, cheap bacon and sausages , and how are they getting away with these prices. The cakes I rate which is lovely and at decent quality.
I find alot of staff in different branches are very rude ,as well as getting orders wrong, which can be dangerous for me. Eg : I ask for sandwich to be made without tomatoes as im allergic. They roll there eyes and say just take the one on shelf and remove them. I say no and reason . They grabbed one off the shelf and scrapped out the tomato???.
Please treat allergies seriously. Maybe some may need to understand stand how important this is.
Terrible customer service & lack of prep
The assistant manager at Colindale had terrible customer service and a stinking attitude. I use Wenzel almost everyday at various locations and like the food although it’s overpriced. However, this location was underprepared for an early start had nothing ready and were rude.
Yet another dry as a bone cake from…
Yet another dry as a bone cake from Wedzels Basidon. It was so dry I thought I saw an oasis in the middle. It was so dry Jack Dee was impressed. I was so dry it should have had a warning sign saying 'keep away from naked flames'.
Genuinely unimpressed with the food every single time.
Chicken and bacon sandwich and Baguette…
Chicken and bacon sandwich and Baguette was shocking , all I could taste was Mayo hardly any chicken or bacon. I complained and nothing done about it . The price as well is shocking will never go back in there shops , better product and value in Greggs .
My first time ordering from there and…
My first time ordering from there and my last, they couldn't get my order right at all, I asked for a muti grain roll, no butter, tomato sauce, I got white crusty, butter, brown sauce and the food inside was cold, not ordering from there again and why do you only sell big packs of sausage rolls? For the price, the order should of been correct and hot
Terrible stuff.
Went to the one in Hitchin, the guy (yashas) started to serve me and my partner. My partner was placing his order and then next thing, a delivery driver comes in, pushes in-front of us, not only nearly walking into my 2 week old baby. But, talks to the guy in their language. ( I thought that wasn’t allowed in-front of customers.) and then as I’m about to order, the guy tells me to wait ‘2 mins’ because he’s serving the delivery driver now. I don’t think that’s acceptable at all! Yashas was half way serving us but had to stop for the delivery driver. We confronted yashas and let him know he shouldn’t be doing that to customers but only a sorry. Not good enough. You need to re-train your stuff and customer service. Disgusting behaviour!
Not worth it
First time I have shopped here and really disappointed. I brought a cake and the cake was a little dry and so expensive. Everything in the shop seemed to be double in price compared to other places and I can't see why. The shop looked nice and was clean, that was the only thing. I wouldn't be spending my money here again.
Ordered a Jamaican Pattie today and…
Ordered a Jamaican Pattie today and couldn’t believe how horrible food could be. It was a hard crust incredibly dry tasteless and worse, virtually no filling. Basically disgusting and in edible, ended in bin. I have informed the company of my thoughts. Had so many from different food outlets over the years and even a few from this company previously which all though not as good as a West Indian take away, were certainly acceptable.
Never again
I’ve visited many Wenzels locations over the years. But in the last few years this business has now gone totally downhill.
The food is awful & staff are either rude or just have no clue when it comes to customer service.
This is what you get when you hire foreign labour & give no or little training in customer srrvice.
At one time I rated Wenzels highly & the staff were so friendly & interactive but that now all gone.
After my interaction today with Golders Green location in London I will never go back.
Wenzels you should be ashamed.
Food is now disgusting & expensive !!
Goodby

I have been coming to this wenzels in Ruislip Gardens for the past 5 years and always love the team there. They have always been so helpful and lovely.
However something has changed in the last month. The service is the worst. There is one particular employee who is the rudest team member ever serving at the front. I would never name and shame publicly, but she clearly has something going on outside of work or just doesn’t want to be at work. Either way her attitude is terrible.
I try not to complain about service as I appreciate some people may have an “off” day and work in the service sector. However her behaviour is appalling and ongoing. I actually feel uncomfortable going into the shop, which is very sad. I won’t be going in there any time soon!

The store in aylesbury town centre they got have one of the worst personal ever these polish people has no respect mean to customers and delivery drivers i would personally like to complain about the experience i had with them and their shouting i hope their cameras works and get them fired
Northolt Wenzels top class
Our family had a funeral reception in Greenford recently for my mother in law. Logan in the Northolt Wenzels couldn't have done more or being nicer. Thank you so much Logan on behalf of my wife's family for the quality of food and the sensitivity. Highly recommend them.
Wenzels: Terrible/poor quality
I’ll never go back to Wenzels as the quality is absolutely terrible and very poor. However, the staff was nice.
I’ll stick to Greggs.
Wenzels could learn from the great quality of Greggs.
Wenzels London Rd High Wycombe
Very friendly and helpful staff, food never disappoints. At Christmas the staff were amazing when I asked if they could order me some Christmas gingerbread and they went above and beyond and my kids were so happy. I love and must say I'm probably slightly addicted to their sandwich baggets as I often get one for lunch. This branch is my go to in high wycombe as I can't fault it 😊
Harpenden wenzles
Harpenden wenzles, the girl who served us was so miserable .and rude Please give her a day off 😔
Rude Staff, baguette was not nice
St Albans branch. Rude staff, threw my change onto the counter, I think by buying a baguette and not a whole Meal Deal she didn’t like it.
Cheese salad baguette wasn’t good either.
No more Wenzels for me.

The customer service received from a young lad called Hendon @ the greenford station branch was exceptional. Had a total can do attitude and approach. Please feed this back. His colleague could a tips from him.
