| - A very solid not-exactly-alright from me. I avoid giving 3 stars, because either you like it or you don't, really, but this place is just an indifferent shrug. The service was sad (and I mean that literally - the cashier looked like she was having a bad day, staring at the ground, and avoided speaking to anyone..but uh, I needed to place an order, so).. when I did, she completely disregarded my friend speaking next to me, and interrupted her by telling me my own total. I mentioned "oh, and whatever she's having too" and motioned to my friend, as she sighed dramatically and stared at her throughout the order of a shake. Tuna melt, iced latte, and chocolate shake came out to be $16. I felt like she needed a pick-me-up, so I dropped the change from a $20 in the tip jar (hopefully helping out the service for the person behind me who is left to deal).
Okay, but, don't order the tuna melt. I'm given a mini bagel, cut in half, with a spoonful of tuna, a slice of plastic cheese, and a cute lil sprinkle of paprika on top. It was pretty adorable, so I assumed a lot of things - it tasted like cardboard and pretty much processed everything. Man, the cheese wasn't even melted, or warm at all for that matter, and I was done in 5 minutes (literally and metaphorically, ahah). Sucks to read the reviews on here and expect a comfy cozy cafe, but the seats were all taken up by shopping bags and random bamboo sticks (oh, kensington), the service was drastically unhappy, and the food was just a sad excuse for the business to be all "hey! we're totally not just coffee-and-desserts like every other cafe, uh, we can make things! have lunch here!" Granted, the latte was great, but I don't think that'll bring me back.
