Went for lunch. We ordered sandwiches, soup and smoothie. Order was served quickly and staff was nice. Only issue was the bread was hard and almost inedible. My partner did not eat her sandwich but service was quick and staff was friendly.

HORRIBLE COFFEE. Those machines make nasty coffee and they take a long time. They need to go back to regular coffee makers. The sandwich literally ha 2 tablespoons of chicken and half of that was fat and gristle that had to spit out. Waste of money. Coffee station is a mess. Empty cream containers.
