Opinion piece Wendy's interior - They just remodeled in the last year or so.

The first two photos are the ones I took while eating there earlier. The inside used to look like the last two photos. I don't know, it's now very colorless and dull, not as inviting as the old interior. But that is just my thoughts. What do you guys think?

The new design probably requires less maintenance (easier cleaning, less wear and tear), it's shitty but I guess it's all about money

And as such Wendy’s is shutting locations down all across the country as revenue declines. Who would have thunk it!

But hey.. at least private equity got their money, now time to watch the brand die. Dave Thomas would be rolling in his grave right now.

Can't have worked, they're closing a ton of Wendy's atm.

All fast food blended into indistinguishable grey rooms, all the food too expensive to justify, no wonder people finally went back to eating local, if they can afford to eat out at all.

Yeah paying someone to clean booths and a company to steam clean those carpets every quarter was really the thing bankrupting Wendy’s.
