| - The Cracked Egg closes at 2:00 PM, I know that. However, I work grave yard and I get there as soon as I can which is usually around 1:00-1:30. Today, I got there at 1:30. It was very cold in there as if they turned off the heat and when my wife, daughter and I got our coffee, it was cold. The waitress oppologized and explained that since they close at 2:pm, they shut the coffee machine down for cleaning and closing at 1:00 and put coffee in carafs. She threw it in the microwave for us to heat it up, but honestly, it made it slightly bitter. With as good as the food is (it's excellant, BTW), they must get a lot of business during the morning, so it's hard for me to believe that the owner can't afford to leave the heater and the coffee pot on until 2:00!
A secondary and mostly unimportant complaint is that I got only coffee and my wife and daughter got coffee, and both got the cracked croissant breakfast and shared a peice of the coffee cake (I highly recommend the cake). The total bill was $35 plus tip minus $8 coupon. So still basically $35 for two breakfasts out the door. That's pretty pricey. We still come because we can't resist the food or the coupon! (I say unimportant because if I don't like the price I could simply not go there, but I thought the readers should know that without the coupon, it would cost about $20 per person.)
