| - I stopped in @ the Chateau due to good reviews on Yelp. Yes, the place is cute, but the journey to walk there from the only available parking left me freezing cold and hoping it was worth the effort to go there. The decor is nice, a relaxed coffee shop vibe with a large chalkboard menu that while "cute" is very hard to read, even with my 20/20 vision, due to so many options listed and crammed in one space. I ordered a drink (coconut chai latte) and paid & say down with a paper menu to help me decide. The drink was flavorless and made with just a tea bag, not a blended chai mix, as I had expected. I would never recommend ordering that. I added sugar and that didn't even help. On to the food-- They had a lot of sandwiches for breakfast or lunch but I wasn't too hungry, so I opted a cold salad with sweet potatoes. Just one bite in, and I knew it was old. It had to have been made sometime last week. I'm not one to complain, but I truly couldn't eat it. The girl behind the counter offered me a different salad, with quinoa & tomatoes, and it was much better! The girl working there brought over a chocolate cookie (which looked dry, but tasted great!-- I think it was flourless) and it was a nice gesture, that's why I'm giving Chateau 3 stars instead of 1 or 2.
