This place is great for hanging out with friends late at night for cheap drinks and apps. The service is absolutely terrible. There's never a host, servers aren't very good and don't want to be there. You aren't able to modify the drinks at all, it's against policy. So if you don't like super sugary drinks you're out of luck. Now the good. After 9pm every day, they have a lot of half price apps which always taste very good. There's also a few $5 drinks. They normally have 1-2 cheap monthly drinks as well. read more

Me and my friends waited, abnormally long to be seated then our waitress who was doubling as the bartender Daisy I think her name was left us hanging for another 20 minutes until we even were greeted because she didn't want to be recorded because me and my friends were filming a little Vlog so instead of getting us another waiter she just decided to leave us hanging on top of that she skimped out on making our drinks The steak was very salty. They do this on purpose at restaurants when they don't like you they over salt the food so it taste bad. This is not the traditional Applebee's experience management only took off $15 for inconvenience when you order the margarita tin you're supposed to get a lot more drinking it than what they gave us from my experience at other Applebee's other staff was also rude. At least the actual new waiter was nice. Ambience was bad because we can overhear the bartender daisy complaining about us recording making a little video. read more

Excellent service on a very busy Veterans Day. What a great idea to allow the free Veterans Day meal "to-go"!!! Restaurants are packed and sometimes there are long waits. I hope more restaurants add this option in the future . read more

Lovely Ambience, great service and great food, My partner loves the Quesadilla cheeseburger!!! read more

Our go-to steak and hamburger place in Middletown. Service is efficient enough and friendly. Delivery is timely. Fountain drinks taste funny. Don't bother with the ginger ale- even the servers say that everyone says it doesn't taste like ginger-ale. Maybe management will listen one of these days? read more

Arrived to be greeted by the miserable hostess. She made me want to leave, but my son and wife wanted to stick it out. She rudely stated that there is a 15 min wait... for what idk. The place is almost empty. I'd recommend going elsewhere where. The inside definitely needs a good cleaning, windows dirty. The tables gross and sticky, and the smell of the old carpets is a turn off. The only thing keeping from leaving was the drinks from the bar and nice waiter/server. If you're hungry find a clean place that serves quality food. read more

The worst service ever. Good and waited 20 minutes for a spoon. Other Applebee's are much better.

The chicken Parm dish was good & tasty but they forgot my bread stick. Salad was good also! read more

Had dinner here, the ambiance was chill and easy going. Not too bright and not too dark, just the right lighting for a relax atmosphere. Music wasn't too loud nor the tvs on so they don't drown each other or make it difficult to have a conversation. Christa H. did an astounding job taking care of us and making sure we had anything we needed. My husband and I ordered the Whisky Bacon burger, it did not disappoint. The beef patties were made to our liking and the sauce was tasty. We ordered drinks, the Blue Aloha Mana Margarita was good but more sweet than anything. Also ordered the Breaking Rock Rita and it was a it on the strong side, they were still good but not for us. Overall, great food and the service thanks to Christa we had a good time. read more

Kudos to our server Nicole on Monday. We were there for lunch. This girl seats you, serves you, clears & cleans the table after you leave..like a complete robot. I hope they are paying her well, and I hope she's getting the tips she deserves! Anyway, I had a strawberry balsamic chicken salad which was very good and can't beat a $6 Margarita!! read more

cold barely warm tomato soup. Not even butter for a hard roll...log wait to send order in...longer wait for bill!!!~

Worst steak and manger ever. Couldn't even eat 6 ounces of the 8 ounce steak because it was so grizzly and chewable when I said I didn't wanna pay for it. The manager said well it looks like you've tried to eat it so he wasn't gonna take off my bill. This was lunch today 03.25.25 horrible leadership, horrible food. read more

When we came in we had to wait to be seated for a table for 2. Once seated in a booth in the bar area, we patiently waited for over a half an hour to be approached or even greeted by a server. While sitting there, another family was seated after us in the same area, and started getting serviced almost immediately. Even after they were started, we waited even longer and still never received service. We left and went elsewhere. read more

Food is good. Delivery service and double checking your order before it goes out can be approved on

Shania always knocks it out of the park. Applebees called me from my last post and made my experience right. But when Shania is there I have never had an issue. I'm not sure if it's the whole team when she is there or if she is just that good but Thank you ! read more

Applebee's Grill + Bar - The classic burger with mashed potatoes as we order it. - American Near Me - Middletown, New York

I order from here at least once a week. I doordash so I can stay home and have my food delivered. The last several times it has been small errors like sauce missing or meat not cooked well when it was requested. However tonight I had my grandkids over I spent over $80. One of my entire meals were missing. My son called doordash since this was his account. He was told they would have to investigate because I spent so much money. So I called Applebee's and requested a manager he told me he doesn't give refunds when I was just asking before giving bag to driver do they check if everything was in bag. Moreover the bag was not sealed.Again my meal was missing and I'm being told it's the driver's job to check the order not the restaurant. So I'm out of $20 but this is the way an establishment handles business. For this I give 1 star for the horrible way I felt after this experience. read more

Bad, really bad food and bad service. Us and the kids were starving so we decided to stay. I don't recommend going there, take your hunger and your money somewhere else. read more

You walk in and it smells like dirty sock. It's takes forever for someone to seat you even when the place has no one on there. It's a shame. I would never go back Food was not good. But I should have known better bc I couldn't get past the smell in there read more

The last few times I've been to Applebees it's been horrible so I haven't been here in a few years. Two weeks my aunt chose to go here for my cousins birthday and I will honestly say I was hesitant about the food here. Well, they must've gotten a new chef because the food was actually pretty good! I ordered the cheese bites and they were delicious!! I also ordered a steak as my dinner meal and it was cooked just like I like it. I would definitely return! read more

Went to Applebee's to get an early meal. Waited 20 minutes to get served. Waitress very scattered - took order - 1 was a special order - repeated special order - order had to be restated. Food took 45 minutes to get to table. Food was tasty - to my surprise, but very thankful. In the meantime - other things happening that indicate patrons not happy with their experience. Second round of beverages. Halfway through 2nd diet soda - our diabetic person at the table - his glucose meter shoots up to 220? We ask the server if the soda was diet? - she absolutely says yes, I asked is she filled it herself she said yes. Then she states she did not fill the first one - which had to be regular soda! We had no food in between. All I heard was apologies at every table. Problem with food - problem with charge on credit card. Not sure of why the delays - I get it that the business is a tough one - but the mistake with the diet soda in place of full sugar soda is careless and dangerous. We won't be back. read more

Terrible experience the waitress Theresa ignored my table, it seemed intentional she kept glaring angrily at my date, we felt uncomfortable like we were bothering her. The main bartender also was extremely rude, the seating person asked her if she wanted to wait on us and she very angrily said "no I don't want them" rolled her eyes and proceeded to give us dirty looks from across the room. I've seen her be very mean to the younger staff members and she's openly rude with customers which made it uncomfortable and tense. The food was cold, fries seemed like they had been microwaved, chicken in sandwich was over cooked and dry, I asked for additional ranch because the sandwich was very dry and the waitress never brought it and seemed annoyed that I'd asked for it. Overall needs improvement, staff needs to get retrained in customer service, wouldn't recommend spending your money or time you're better off going to Chillis or Outback the service is 100x better and food isn't reheated. read more

Worst service I've ever received. Young waitress named Jasmine was extremely rude, never came back to check on me and my family and seemed very irritated when we had to wave her down to ask for refills, or anything else . So upsetting read more

This place terrible, the people are clueless. we waited 20 minintes and nobody came to the table. Most were walking around looking at their phones. We asked out and the kid at the front couldn't care less. No apology. I will never return This is why they have a 2 star rating. read more

Sean was a great waiter. The food was good. It was a great to bring back the Dollaritas. The ambiance was cool. I like how all the staff joined together to sing happy birthday to customers. read more

Not sure what the problem is with this "fast food" restaurant. Many of the reviewers have complained about the service or lack thereof. The times we've sat down to dine the service was decent and the server was attentive. Unfortunately "Carside toGo" is another beast. In a word horrible. 4 cars sitting outside waiting for food to be delivered...I can hear the drivers calling the number and no one picking up the phone. We as the other 3 go so frustrated waiting that all of us had to go In and pickup our own food. There must be a reason why this branch cannot keep staff. Apparently one employee had called out and it was a domino effect and nothing could get done. Word to the wise...do not pre-tip because you will be working for Applebee's by having to pick up your own food. read more

Went for lunch with the family. Was seated at a dirty table which they tried to wipe down after seating us. Then the table was wobbly. Moved to a different table and no one came to check on us for 15 minutes. Ended up walking out, never even being checked in with. read more

Applebee's Grill + Bar - The flaming hot Cheetos cheese bites. And no this is not cooked liver - American Near Me - Middletown, New York

The place is a shit hole. The only reason I go there is to play quick draw. The machine hasn't worked in two weeks because they're too lazy to sign on the food sucks so I don't order food. The bar is sticky so I bring my own cloth and the bartender does everything tables bartend quick draw when it's working read more

ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE!!!!!! my children went there for a relaxing dinner and that was NOT what they got at all!!!! greeted by an awfully rude waitress who did not drop the attitude when they didn't know what a "2 for 20" was, HELLO that's your job, explain it. This waitress who I believe was named Cheyenne charged them for extra items and served my daughter a grilled cheese on a bun. When asked why she said that the kitchen was out of bread but would make her a second one. The second one coming HALF AN HOUR LATER on bread!!!!!!!!!! With an attitude from the start, disgusting. You work in the service industry, this is your job!! read more

Service was horrible, food was horrible, vibes was horrible... or maybe that's because we went late, maybe if we went earlier next time

Went there for dinner sat at the bar. The bartender was horrible. What an attitude. The place was empty no wonder. No management it'll be going out of business soon read more

Ehhhh. That's about the sum of our most recent visit this past Sunday. It was around 7:00 so the main dinner rush was over. We were seated quickly by a very pleasant hostess. Our waitress started out great. She was very personable and cheerful. For our drink order I asked for a water and a lemonade, but didn't get the water. Not a big deal, but then other little things kept happening. She would disappear for longer times than any other staff member. Drinks finished and refills requested. Refills sat at the bar for a while. In fact our food came a request for a condiment was made. 10 minutes later the sauce came. Then finally after another chunk of time our refills came. We were asked a little while if we were ready for the bill while we were eating. No chance for subpar desserts as we weren't encouraged or even asked. The food was mediocre. The fries were stale. My chicken sandwich was okay. There was nothing that left me wanting more. There appeared to be a manager if not two present, but I don't see what purpose they served. I will not visit again for a long time if ever. read more

service was terrible (waitress told is all the table tablets were dead, until my kid pointed out serval in empty booths worked. she was super annoyed and never brought my kids one and avoided our table except to drop off the food) but the food was worse. I returned my food after one bite of whatever it was. my son's pizza was still frozen in the middle but no one realized until we were ready to leave. my husband ate half of his until he said the shrimp tasted funny and that's when I tried a bite and realized it was rancid and slimy. smelled SO BAD. at that point no one ate much and I already returned my food so we just paid and left. honestly waiting to see if my husband gets food poisoning. when we were walking to the car we saw a bunch of mice scurring along the side of the building read more

As someone who works at a different Doherty Applebee's location, I am taken back by the misinformation the staff at this store is either given by management or just lacks the effort to figure out how to ring items in the correct way. Food was basic Applebee's quality, and servers were friendly which is the only reason why this location is worth a four star review. read more

Hours are inaccurate. Call before going. The kitchen wasn't serving food 30 minutes before they closed.

I was contacted by the management at Applebee's who apologized and even sent me a gif certificate. I am sure that the manager on duty that day received an earful for not responding to several requests to turn off the air conditioning on that very cool day. I do appreciate the management reaching out. read more

If I could give no stars I would. 1) the temperature in the restaurant is set to attic so the staff aren't uncomfortable. No consideration for the patrons 2) half the staff have their breasts half out. No professionalism. 3) wait staff has ZERO personality and doesn't say please, thank you or you're welcome 4) food is below par. Doesn't come out the way you order it and need to send it back two or three times read more

My family and I used to come to this Applebee's all the time when i was younger and we never had any issues. So we thought it would be a great idea to order out, but that was a huge mistake. All the food they gave is was burnt. Also the lids on the containers were not placed properly so two orders of food spilled in the bag. All in all I'm very disappointed. read more
