| - Saturday afternoon, I came here while my car was being worked on at Discount Tire nearby.
For a Saturday afternoon, I was surprised how busy the place was. There were only 2 tables open (both with 2 chairs) outside of the study area. In the study area, there was another seat. Wow!
The staff (one who assisted me and one who worked the drive through window) made it a point to say hello when I walked up to the counter. In viewing the sample sized reeses dessert on the counter, I asked if I could try one. The taste...fantastic. I asked if any of the coffee beverages came with a free refill, and was advised that none were free, but a refill was only 50 cents, regardless of what size I purchased. I figured with 45 minutes to wait on the car, I would manage to go through 4 small cups (10 ounce) or 2 large cups (16 ounce), and the initial outlay for the first cup was only 50 cents different, so my best bet was the large cup.
After I got my cup and added sugar and cream, I looked for a table. One of the 2-seat tables I saw available had an empty cup and dirty napkins on it. As I approached, someone from across the room advised the table was taken, so I moved on. I found another table by the window in a small space next to the study room. As the table top was sticky, I went back to the counter and asked if I could get a rag to wipe the table down. Normally, when I have made such a request at other coffee shops, someone would come and wipe down/clean up the table. This time, I was given a rag and advised to return it when I was done.
The coffee was respectable. It was decently hot, and certainly not "weak". Maybe the management wants to consider staffing a third person when it is as busy as it was on Saturday. Maybe this was an exception...I am just not accustomed to wiping down my table before I sit.
