| - I think I may have hit the Bridgeland Market on an off-day. It sounds like they are usually a lot better, so I will have to return at some time and hopefully update my review.
I came in to grab something for lunch, and decided on a sandwich made with fixings from their deli. Everything looked really high quality and delicious! I stood at the sandwich counter for a while, trying to get someone's attention. One employee came and sat down on the counter in front of me and started doing something on his cell phone. I gave him a few minutes to finish what he was doing, but didn't even get so much as a "hello". Another staff member was talking on the landline. It's a small store, and I would understand if they were busy with other customers, but I was the only one there and I felt extremely ignored. The guy on the landline got off the phone eventually and took my sandwich order.
The sandwich itself was a let down. It appeared that they combined all of the condiments from ALL of the sandwiches on their list onto my sandwich. It had mustard, mayo, horseradish, vegetable spread, and olive tapinade. A few of these condiments go together, but the last three certainly didn't. And all three weren't even supposed to be on my sandwich, so it wasn't what I was expecting. The bread was extremely dry and tasted almost stale. It wasn't the best sandwich I've ever had.
Oh well, it sounds like there are lots of other great products in the store. And they support other local businesses which I like. They seem to have a good philosophy, and unfortunately I probably just caught them at a bad time.
