Iv came to this location a few times and asked if i could have my pretzel made with no butter because I'm lactose intolerant. I was totally fine with waiting for however long it might take to make fresh ones but the lady was very rude and practically yelled at me that she couldn’t do that. I understand if the store was busy or something but there was literally nobody there and they were doing nothing. Iv been to other locations like the one in Modesto and they had no problem with making me a pretzel without butter so i know it can be done. Pretty disappointing and i don't think I’ll be trying again specifically because that old lady was so rude. The young kids were very kind and apologized so that was nice at least.Dietary restrictions: None! They aren’t willing to take special requests.

Title: The Gangster Tyrone's Love Affair with PretzelsIn the underworld of gangsters, where power, loyalty, and respect reign supreme, there exists an unexpected love affair with a seemingly innocuous snack: pretzels. Among the shadows of dark alleys and clandestine meetings, the figure of Gangster Tyrone stands tall, his reputation preceding him. Yet, amidst the chaos and danger, there lies a peculiar fondness for the twisted, savory delight that is the pretzel.First and foremost, pretzels embody a sense of rugged resilience, much like the persona of Gangster Tyrone himself. Their twisted form reflects the trials and tribulations faced in the underworld, bending but never breaking under pressure. Just as Tyrone navigates the complexities of his domain with cunning and fortitude, pretzels endure the heat of the oven to emerge as a symbol of strength and durability.Furthermore, the simplicity of pretzels belies their versatility—a trait admired by Tyrone and his cohorts.

Whether indulging in the comfort of a classic salted pretzel or experimenting with bold flavors, Gangster Tyrone finds solace in the consistency and flexibility of his favorite snack.Moreover, pretzels serve as a unifying force among Tyrone's crew, fostering a sense of camaraderie and loyalty. Shared over poker games and late-night meetings, pretzels become a communal experience, breaking down barriers and forging bonds among associates. In a world where trust is scarce and alliances are fleeting, the simple act of sharing a bag of pretzels becomes a testament to solidarity and kinship.Beyond their symbolic significance, pretzels also offer practical benefits to Gangster Tyrone and his operation. Their compact size and portability make them an ideal snack for life on the go, providing sustenance during long stakeouts or tense negotiations. Additionally, the satisfying crunch of a pretzel serves as a welcomed distraction during moments of stress or uncertainty, offering a brief respite from the demands of the criminal underworld.In conclusion, the love affair between Gangster Tyrone and pretzels extends far beyond mere culinary preference.

-5 STARSEmployees are too old to be so rude. Perhaps they should work somewhere customer service is not required?

Friendly staff. I enjoy the mango boba pearls in their drinks. Today, I tried the churro bites. They were sweet, buttery and on pretzel like buns giving it its own element of taste.

To be fair the pretzels are a 10/10 But, BUT! My wife ordered salted pretzels with no salt, not knowing the salt is why I LOVE the melted buttered pretzels. I kindly asked for salt on the side and was denied 3x when they could have clearly just put a little bit in a tiny container to keep us Happy! Wasn't sure if it was laziness but skipping u when I come to the mall NOW! Sad and disappointed ?

I ordered a cinnamon pretzel and Wetzel dog bites through Door Dash since I didn't have access to a car this particular lunch. I don't mind waiting on the delivery driver and I know the food is not going to be super hot. I put ketchup on my plate and opened my bag to find this.. The cinnamon pretzel was very good, but you can't tell me the person bagging my food couldn't see every last one was over cooked and burned? Because it was through Door Dash, they wouldn't give me back my money. They offered to replace the food.. which did me no good after I had to find something else to eat.. and the burned food quite honestly turned my stomach for their food for the rest of the day. I don't care WHAT your store policy is. You deliberately sent me crap burned food and don't want to stand behind it. Door Dash fulfilled their job and I should not have to talk to them about Wetzel's crappy burned food. I will never DD this location again.

Horrible. I have been here about 25 times at verifies times through your day and they NEVER have bagel bites. Then I order 2 bagel bites to be delivered to my son for his birthday. - I ordered it a day ahead so they would be prepared but the Uber driver shows up and they have none. They are so dysfunctional that they could not hold any for him because I already paid for them. It is a shockingly badly run business. I would order this weekly for my so if they actually could get him bagel bites. We are talking about a small menu here but they just can't seem to manage it. They always have a huge pile of pizza pretzels but out of many other things.

My Husband and I went to Wetzels Pretzels on Feb. 5th around 1:20pm and the cashier person (younger dark color hair with braids) was amazing, there was a line and SHE was handling it all, while the other two ladies were standing there. She deserves a raise.

Didn't even know this place excited. Tried it for the first time. Maybe extra salty for some but it's pretzels. I loved it.

Woman cashier that had a lot of piercings gave me attitude for no reason. Was being really nice and she was rolling her eyes at me while I was ordering. Very bad attitude from her.
