First time visiting this Applebee and was impressed with the hostess service. The food was good for Applebee, on time and hot. My only complaint was the plastic tableware that was given for our meal (4 ppl). Normally I would have exited the restaurant. The manager visited the table upon completion of meal, informed him and he didn't offer an apology and insisted they have silverware. That was not good enough for my return to this Applebee. read more

Establishment dirty, sticky tables ketchup on menus. Also the service is really slow I'm talking waiting 20-30 minutes just for a drink.

Service kept us waiting for a long time and gave me raw broccoli. I would never go here again. Genuinely never coming here again

We visited recently on a Sunday evening (3/21), asked for a table for 2 with the hostess (restaurant at 60-65% capacity), led to a side area, was a bit disturbed to see trash on the floor/stairs/next to trash cans as we were walking through, table was up against 2 booths with 6 people and coughing toddlers, asked to be seated at a small empty table at the end of the row away from all that only to be told it was reserved for a server who wasn't seated there, hostess said she would look for something else, when we returned to the hostess stand she was gone and never returned, after several minutes we left, swearing not to return any time soon. Such a disappointment for a usually relaxed, affordable eatery! read more

This is going to be brutal but I wouldn't even bother reviewing if I did think it would help you make a better choice and on the slim chance this business read their reviews and take action. Why was I even here? A quick drink while in the area. Bartender was friendly enough, upselling the liquor did not go unnoticed, but he was too easily distracted by a bored coworker instead of focusing on the guests. Said bored coworker kept interrupting with his personal conversations when he probably could have served the establishment better by wiping down dirty menus or better yet making those handy napkin rolls with the cutlery inside because the bartender only gave us a two paper napkins and a fork. No condiments, no wet naps even though we ordered ribs. Messy business. And the floors were sticky in the bathroom. All these young people milling around doing nothing when I see a lot of room for improvement. They can do better and so can you. Move on. read more

Food was good. Ambience was good. Service was not that great. Server was very nice but we ate our food before the drinks made it to the table. Which was about 25-30 minutes. Had to cancel the drinks as we were leaving. Stop the drinks were not ready!! Bar tender was just hanging out‍‍‍ decent food half decent service. Don't expect much here!! read more

H O R R I B L E! The food is wrong, cold and rubbery. The tables and booths are dirty!!!! The service is not well either. Not worth the trip. Go to Mcdonald's read more

I got take out so can't add much. Online pickup is all the way in the back. had to wait a few min for worker to see me and bring my order. With the prices of Fast food, this was worth it at Tuesday special and even at full price. Everything tasted and looked fresh. read more

What a disappointment. Nothing went right from the start -- the hostess and manager were arguing about where to seat us. We had to go to the bar several times just to find our server for more drinks, napkins, and to fix our order, which was wrong to begin with. And to top it off, the bathrooms were an absolute disgrace. Overall, a frustrating experience from start to finish. read more

Paid $35 per plate and I left hungry. Ordered steak and it was more gristle than steak. The cook should be ashamed of themselves.

This review is a SHOUT OUT to management and their professionalism...my homie and I rolled into Applebee's for appetizers and burgers. It was buzzing with customers--and the servers were on their toes. There were mix ups with the appetizers--and the burgers were late...but the manager approached our table, apologized for the inconvenience...and told us our meal was on the house. We weren't expecting that!!! It's service like that which keeps customers happy--and return visits!!!! I love Applebee's anyway (mushroom burger was slamming)! Ambiance cozy and warm (customers were enjoying themselves)...never a full moment! Again, high five to the manager! And...the server was simply adorable! read more

I can't believe I ever gave this place a good review. It was the worse dining experience I had anywhere! Came here for another girls nite. 15 minute wait? Ok Get seated and the waiter never comes after 25 minutes! We stopped the waitress at another section, she goes to find our waiter, another 5 minutes nothing, we go to the front and ask for the waiter yet again It was just too much of a hassle for basically chicken tenders drenched in sauce read more

I haven't been to this Applebee's in a long time. Decided to stop in for lunch. I was seated right away. The waitress was friendly enough. Doing her job (I feel) the best she could with it being short staffed. I decided on a mushroom Swiss burger. It was delicious with sauteed onions and Swiss cheese on a brioche bun. I also got a small bowl of creamy tomato soup with croutons and French fries. The soup was delicious. Only thing....I asked to get my soup with my meal. I had to send it back because they brought it out after mentioning twice that I wanted it with my meal. Overall I enjoyed my meal and might go back if I'm in the area. read more

Worst service ever experienced. Ended up paying before my food even arrived, 30 mins in without a single check in. Was easier to do that than attempt to ask anyone that works at the restaurant where my food was. read more

Got a bourbon Street Burger and fries The burger was bland had absolutely no flavor if it wouldn't by have had onions and mushrooms on it it would really sucked The prize was good but the sandwich I could have done without this was at the Washington township boulevard restaurants​​ read more

You should really try the new chicken parm entrée. It is sooo delicious. I was hungry and thirsty. I went to the bar and got first class service as usual. Jibaree is amazing, the servers are always friendly. Kelly and Casey are great! I Love my neighborhood applebees in Jenkintown. read more

We had a great dinner at Applebee's a few weeks ago and decided to go again tonight. I called prior to ask if the 2 for $25 Sizzler was still available and was told yes. However, our meals were $32 each. That is a good price for a good meal, but why was I told the special was still on? Thank you. Jenkintown Customer read more

Absolutely beyond terrible. Ordered a classic burger and brought a cheese burger. The server insisted they are both the same and took an extreme attitude when demanding a reorder of a classic burger. Recei read more

I think that the sodium, calories, and carbs in the food is quite outrageous and they should change the recipes to all of the foods in all locations they prepare in this establishment so that way other people can come and enjoy some of the foods because somepeople do have health issues they are trying to take care of without worrying whether or not they are eating healthy food. I used to love eating the three cheese chicken penne but I had no idea that it had 99 grams of carbs at all I thought that the carb count would be much lower then that. They do have good service and they are very attentive and the ambiance is amazing. I also think that Applebees needs to bring back the chocolate fudge sundae shooter because it was a much better healthier dessert than the ones they have on their menu. read more

Not a bad experience I came in for the 14.99 deal they currently have going on and tried all 3, I wasn't disappointed because i got what i expected for the price, they wings and ribs tasted the same, the shrimp was like the hard with not much taste, won't be doing this again. read more

Stopped on a whim for a quick lunch pick up and I should have picked another spot. Ordered spinach dip and ribeye dipper sandwich .

A group of us reserved a table for lunch yesterday. The server, Alexis, was efficient and friendly from the first hello. The food was excellent. Everyone enjoyed their meal. And there was hot water in the ladies room! That doesn't happen in many restaurant bathrooms. Staff checked in several times to make sure all of us were satisfied with our meals. Thank you for an excellent lunch out with my Red Hatters! read more

I went on May 14, 2022 at 2:45 pm and was seated right away. The waitress was very pleasant. The drinks and appetizer came in a reasonable time which allowed time for conversation and some quick bites before the main entrees came. The chef brought out the food and it was very hot, which I like. The music was great. I had to use the restroom and to my surprise- it was EXTREMELY clean. I was super shocked. All in all, there was minimal wait time, the food came out hot, there was excellent customer service, and there's parking right in the front as well. read more

Service is not that great, the server rushed us when we were ordering, forgot to put my drink order in so I was waiting over 30 mins, when I got my drink it didn't look like the picture or have the garnishes like the picture and description, the food was alright. read more

This place is a mess it was dirty the chairs was dusty they forgot my food and I found hair in the sprite the food was cold I said well done and it was pink. Horrible never come here unless you was raw food and was dirty tables and chairs. read more

I went to Applebee's grill & bar on November 18th, 2024 at 323 Old York Road in Jenkintown, PA 19046 and it was the worst dining experience I ever had. I dined at the bar and Alexis was the bartender. I ordered the big bacon cheeseburger and it took over an hour which is despicable. They should have gave me the burger for free! I was just about to walk out when it arrived. It was undercooked and tasted terribly. The bartender was incapable of telling the kitchen how I wanted it cooked. Then I just wanted to leave and gave the bartender a $100 to pay for my bill. She didn't bring me change for about 30 minutes and then I asked what happened to my change? and she gave me an extreme attitude and rolled her eyes. To add insult to injury she gave my change in 1's and 5's and conveniently shorted me a dollar. I guess Applebee's doesn't give change anymore and they always round it off to their advantage. It was clearly horrible and despicable that I had to wait over an hour for a lousy burger and then be given an extreme attitude by some ignorant bartender. I will never dine at a Applebee's Grill & Bar again. I will be filing a complaint with the Better Business Bureau as well. Just a horrible, awful and terrible dining experience. I will be sending a formal complaint letter to Applebee's Grill & Bar corporate office. If I could leave a rating of no stars I would. There are better food establishments to frequent. Stay away! read more

Love Applebees but this Applebees wasn't the same as others Ive been too. I came here with my husband at about 945pm on a Friday night. It was a little busy but we were seated in about 15 min. We sat down and ordered right away since we were there for 1/2 dollar apps. We ordered: Buffalo bites- they seemed old like the bites were sitting for awhile Chicken Nachos-there wasn't a lot of toppings the 1st time we got them. Then the 2nd time there were more nachos. I think its weird that every time we got food it was a different amount of toppings or nachos. Chicken quesidilla- it was one small quesadilla split into 4 triangles. I know its half dollar apps but I feel like the quantity and quality should not be skewed. Overall the service was okay, we had to hunt down our waitress for a refill of water, ranch and sour cream. By the time we wanted a refill the food was done and we were both super thirsty. I think I will drive another 20 min to go to a different Applebees. read more

Went to Applebee's tonight. Ordered the endless wings because I had not eaten at all today. The wings came with fries and an order of coleslaw. The fries and wings were pretty good but I was full after one order and I asked if, instead of getting more wings and fries, I could have another cup of coleslaw. The waitress asked the manager and the manager refused to give me a cup of coleslaw, the same cup that came with the first order. You know what he sent me instead? He actually had them make and bring me another order of wings and fries ‍. So instead of giving me a cup of coleslaw he had them make more food that I didn't want, ask for or eat? Just to make sure I didn't get COLESLAW??????? That's it. End review. Never going back. Never. read more

Me and my husband were very disappointed as we came to enjoy apple bees delicious all-you-can-eat wings deal but as soon as we got seated we found ourselves waiting up to 1 hour just to even have our drinks ordered before we decided that it was time to leave. Our supposed waitress, Precious continuously and knowingly skipped our table about 10 times serving the table in front of us. Sure we could have waved her over but that's not our responsibility. This experience was very disappointing.. do better read more

Seriously, I just want to give props to the host, Mike. He remembers my bf and I every single time when we come in and seats us at our usual booth and he's the nicest employee that I've ever met at this location. He has made it much more comfortable for my bf and I than the other hosts have in which they looked as if they didn't want to be there and was leading us to our doom. Service certainly has not gotten better because even when we're seated, we wait for around 10-20 minutes for someone to actually show up and take our order even though we pressed our call server button. Food is still pretty mediocre. I think it was the firecracker shrimp cavatappi that threw me off the most. Supposedly it's spicy, but when I asked what seasoning they put in it, they said soy sauce. I was CRACKING THE HELL UP. JFC, I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY. It was still bland and disgusting even. Does not go well with cheese. Yuck. read more

So far so good on the takeout, 2nd time getting takeout. Will go for a 3rd, pretty straightforward, just a burger and fries, hard to mess up lol read more

I had the most loveliest dining experience with my boyfriend celebrating our anniversary with our server Erica being so attentive and so thoughtful the entire time thank you Erica read more

Usually I'm ok with Applebees because I don't expect a lot. But this is the worst Applebees, so much so that I swore I'd never come back about a year ago. For a tuesday night it was dead and it was still slow! It took our waitress (I can't remember her name) almost 10 minutes to even notice us! And when she asked if we were waiting awhile, she didn't even apologize! I ordered the $1 drink (cranberry lemonade) and I was halfway through my meal before I got it. She told me the bartender didn't even start to make it when I got my food, and DIDNT APOLOGIZE or offer to get me anything else. We got apps and they're always the same quality, so nothing to rave about there. read more

I can't believe this every single time I order from here I cant never get my order rite it's always missing items today it marks the 4th time this is happen to me and every single time I called the restaurant they tell me to go picked up or we will give you partial refund that is going to show in my account in like 10 days but I never see the partial refund plus the food here it's not like used to be if I wanted to pick up my food I would never ask to be deliver hello and who ever answer the phone it's like I'm telling a joke to them because I'm explaining the situation and she started to laugh it's ok this will also go to corporate thanks Att luis gonzalez read more

Not very clean. Musty smell all over the place. Ordered food, everyone's food came out 25 minutes before my food. Told them I didn't want it and was questioned why. Came here to eat as a family, but apparently that's too much to ask for. Bad timing and staff is just a bunch of kids on their cell phones. read more

Very disappointed in our visit we only went because we had a gift certificate. The best part of the meal was the mozzarella sticks as an appetizer. Food took longer then it should have and the restaurant was only a third full with no large parties. Service was below average and at one point thought the server forgot us. We got our food and didn't see the sever for s while. Definitely won't be going back. read more

If you hit this place at the right time with the right deals, this place is a steal like no other! If you are looking for the most inexpensive bar food + drinks night of your life- this is the spot.A great spot for college kids to go out without breaking the budget. The deal of a lifetime here: 25 cent boneless wings! Which are actually pretty tasty. And don't forget to wash it down with $1 drink of the month - which at the time I went was a Long Island Iced Tea, and was actually very good too(and I do not like Long Islands typically). I personally got the sweet Asian Chile wings and I gotta say, I have been awaiting my return just to get them again - they were saucy,crispy and delicious! My friend enjoyed his buffalo wings too. You do have to pay for dipping sauces and celery with this deal which is understandable. The service was pretty good. We had to wait 15-20 minutes on a Wednesday night which was not too bad. Our waitress was super super kind. The only downside was they forgot to bring us silverware and fill our water, but we were not too upset considering how little our meals cost. Also at the time we watched the table next to us dine and dash so we understood there were more pressing matters. Lasting impression: GO GET THOSE 25 cent WINGS, they are a steal!!! read more
