| - I'm a little torn on how to write this review because I feel there are so many different elements to the final score. Really, I'd give this place 3.5 stars but I can't round it up to 4 stars because I was kind of disappointed.
Let me break it down:
Service: 5 stars! Everyone from the young lady at the register to the young man who brought out our food gave us great service. Really friendly and professional.
Food: 3 Stars. Except for the waffle and the fresh fruit, nothing really stuck out. My hubby ordered a bagel with ham, bacon and swiss cheese. He got American cheese instead, which is fine, but it was such a scrawny looking bagel-1-egg, 1 slice of ham, 2 strips of bacon and 1 slice of the wrong cheese. Its sounds like a decent amount but it was just meager.
My turkey sausage patty was of the frozen bought variety and the eggs tasted as if they were cooked on a grill that wasn't necessarily properly cleaned in between cooking. Meaning my eggs looked and tasted of having been cooked on the same grill where the sausage was cooked. Not a biggie but this is something I would do at home in my own skillet; not something I'd expect of a business.
We both ordered tea with breakfast so I can't speak for their coffee skills but there were no milk alternatives to pour in my tea (although they do have almond milk for lattes). They also only had run of the mill, high fructose corn syrup pancake syrup for the waffles, no maple syrup.
I guess I just felt that, for being such a cute, cozy, trendy coffee shop, they would be a but more hip to the healthy stuff?! Maybe i'm just nuts.
Ambience-very study friendly with tables, chairs and outlets to come and hangout while enjoying a tea, coffee or some food. Music was good and at a decent volume. They also had plenty of board games to choose from. However, they had some merchandise just out in the open that made the place look less than neat. Stacks of soda and water bottles, cleaning buckets and just random items that belong in storage or in a closet but not in an area where clients can see.
Overall, really cute place to get a warm beverage (or cold beer) and chill out for a while. I just wouldn't necessarily recommend purposefully going there to eat; at least not breakfast. Will have to try again and report back.
