| - I came in here on a Saturday afternoon for a late lunch. The place seemed inviting enough. It was clean and kind of homey. There was hardly anyone in there, understandable, given that it was about 2 pm. I was told to sit wherever I wanted to, and I chose to sit by the window. A young couple also sat down behind me. Well! The waitress went straight over to them, asked if they would like anything to start, and completely ignored me. I felt a little hurt, but thought, what the heck, let's not get too sensitive. She did take my order before she took theirs, but that was about it. The young couple was served first, she came by and asked them if everything was okay, I was pretty much ignored. I had to request ketchup, a coffee refill, as well as the bill. Although the waitress was not obnoxious to me or anything, I did feel overlooked and somewhat neglected. The food was decent enough, for a family diner. I ordered a tuna sandwich which was okay, and a generous portion, with so many fries that I simply couldn't finish it. I'm still puzzled as to why the young waitress was favouring the young couple over myself, a single woman of a certain age. I do hope this young woman - she seemed very young - learns that single women of a certain age, like myself, appreciate good service with good tips!
