| - Came here one morning a couple of weeks ago. Had about 50 minutes alloted before my Mayo clinic appointment, so I thought a short stack of banana-nut pancakes would get me in and out fast. I thought wrong. Staff was friendly enough, but it took at least 10 minutes for the server to finally take my order. I asked for banana-nut pancakes, but instead of the pancake syrup (not pure maple), I wanted a side of the blueberry compote that usually comes w/ the blueberry pancakes. Would this be OK? Server said yes. The short stack (2 cakes) arrived 15 minutes later, but instead of banana-nut pancakes, these were blueberries, delivered by another server. My server came by to ask if I needed anything else, heard my complaint, and rushed back to the kitchen to correct it. I was assured that it would only take 10 minutes to get a fresh batch out, but another 15 minutes went by before the correct order arrived. Keep in mind, it's already been at least 40 minutes since I sat down. I only had 10 minutes to spare- not enough to savor these delicious cakes. The blueberry compote ended up containing corn syrup, the ingredient I was trying to avoid by not using the pancake syrup, but it's hard for me to resist blueberry compote, so if I must suffer...
I most likely will visit Chompie's again the next time I'm out and about and craving for pancakes, but only if I have 90 minutes or more to spare...
