Nope. There's one that goes between those 2 plazas, Bradford and Searstone.
Huh? There is no difficult left turn out of the Wendy's at High House/Davis. In fact I'm not sure there's any un-signaled left turns out of that entire plaza. There is at least one un-signaled left at the High House/Maynard plaza.

I was agreeing with you.

That’s true, but you can’t see it from Davis and it is not a direct entry. You have to turn into the road, then into Wendy’s (well the signage came down today) then circle the whole place to go to the drive through then circle around again to leave when you are done. Lots of places have way better access.

I feel weird even arguing this, but it's not on Davis so why would you see it from Davis or enter from Davis? It's on High House. Yes, you enter and drive around the building for the drive-through, but when you exit the drive through you just take a right - you don't have to drive around the building again.
I really don't think it's an access or visibility issue, I think the demographic in the area is just wrong for those types of fast food places. Fast food places in general like McDonalds, BK, Wendy's aren't doing as great these days because everyone is more health-conscious. Chick-Fil-A makes a killing because people are convinced that eating deep fried chicken is somehow healthier than burgers. That and their service is 1000x better than other fast food joints.
I do think demographics play a role, as pointed out. The area is chock full of Indian and Asian families and they don't go for fast food the way Americans do. And this area is not as saturated overall because the lots are bigger. There aren't quite a 1000 houses on .10 acre lots, most of the lots are .30 and up. Less people, less people who eat the food = recipe for not doing well.
Aside from everything else, CFA is the OG fast food in this particular part of Cary - when we moved here the only other places were the McDonald's down High House (which has always been terrible) and the Burger King at NC55 and Green Level West (even worse). CFA has the winning formula of being clean, friendly, sponsors local sport teams and PTAs etc etc and they have a woman who works there during the day who cranks out the orders like nobody's business. Plus closed on Sunday so you only have 6 days to get your fix!

yes, the area is diverse!
Nearby Nazara's 82 health rating tonight on WRAL video... yuck
The lady at the drive-through window? That lady is awesome!
Yup! Funny thing there is a lady at the Apex one who started out just as a side job to make extra money and now is the manager or assistant manager or something like that. This lady seems to be the same way.
