| - I am so sad to give this business such a low rating, but after several tries, it is warranted for my experiences. I had very high hopes and wanted to love the Mad Batter because we are lacking breakfast places in this area. Plus, I liked the how they transformed this Subway into a nice little cafe with tables and counter space.
My first visit was on opening weekend and I only got pastries to go because their lunch menu was not quite ready yet. Since they were so new, I could understand. But I was surprised by the attitude of the owner. She was not very friendly or willing to explain some of the items in the case (only some items had signs to tell you what they were). I wound up with a tomato bread that I was told was raspberry by another clerk.
On my second visit, I also only got to go pastries because we came in for lunch and they were out of the sliders we wanted to try. Owner once again rude and definitely not apologetic.
On my final visit, I got breakfast to go. It didn't travel well so I didn't take pictures. Now I wish I had because the food was terrible! I ordered a breakfast sandwich that was extremely greasy and bland. However, the side of hashbrowns with cheese were really good. The BF got french toast with caramelized bananas and a side of biscuits & gravy. He said the bananas were good, but that the french toast bread tasted more like cake and the consistency was weird for FT. Not something he'd order again. Unfortunately, his description of the biscuits & gravy was really bad and I don't want to repeat it, suffice it to say he spit it out and threw it away. To be fair, the owner did mention that this was not her favorite batch of b&g.
After three unfavorable visits, we will not be returning.
