These spots sit in old brick buildings, on riverbanks, and beside historic town squares, and many of them carry the kind of history and character a new chain restaurant can never copy.

Another Wendy's closed: W. Pensacola at Appleyard store is no more

Tallahassee says goodbye to yet another Wendy's storefront. The fast food joint known for its “fresh, never frozen” square burgers, chili, Frosty desserts and more has closed its longtime location at Appleyard Drive and West Pensacola Street. The Walker Plaza shopping center has seen several closures in recent years, with the shuttering of sandwich shop Which Wich as well as Tex-Mex eatery Moe's, leaving locally owned dessert shop More Than Pudding on its own. When placing an order online, a pop-up notification states, "Sorry, unfortunately, this location has closed. Fortunately, you can choose another location and get the same delicious food." The sudden shuttering of Wendy's stores also includes the South Monroe location in September and the Bradfordville location on 3451 Bannerman Road. In late 2025, the Wendy's on Ocala and Pensacola, directly across from the WestEnd Square shopping center, closed. The Wendy’s at 2122 Capital Circle NE also closed. Closures are in line with the company's strategy to close "underperforming units." According to a transcript reported by Investing.com , Wendy's interim CEO and chief financial officer, Ken Cook, announced in an earnings call Nov. 7 that the closure of the underperforming units — up to 360 stores nationwide —
