| - We're still pretty new to the area (6 months) and when I started seeing ads on Facebook for Kneaders, I thought I'd check it out. Since I was in the area, I decided to visit this location. Walking in, I felt the set-up was very odd. I saw the large seating area. That wasn't odd. But the ordering area was. There was one guest ahead of me, ordering at the register area, which was directly across from the door, but almost down a hallway. On the left was a bookcase or furniture piece with all gift type items...knick knacks and such. On the right was a pastry case and then counter loaded with stuff. I was expecting that the guy behind the pastry case would ask me if I needed assistance, but he never even acknowledged me. Ok, guess the girl at the register would take care of me after the other guest. It sounded like that guest was placing a catering order or something. Again, surprised nobody else offered to assist me. That guest then said she wanted to get some pastries and she then he to walk back to the pastry case, but was confused that the employee didn't move over to the pastry case too. She had to keep walking back and forth. i can't even imagine if there was a line. When she commented about walking back and forth, the guy who had been behind the case earlier said, "just yell out what you want, we can hear you!". It was all just a little off-putting and I'm not sure I'll be back. I didn't feel welcomed and felt like I needed to memorize the items available so I could place my order. I'm always looking for a nice bakery to get fresh bread and treats. Was hoping this might fit the bill, but I'm going to keep looking.
