    Grilled cheese and chips were good and sounds like the tea was good as well. Service was fast through the drive thru.

    Place has gotten expensive not to mention the service has gone down hill two sandwiches and a soup 41 dollars food was good but not 41 dollars good and the while we were waiting they put our food on a counter didn't call out none of that and when I asked if it was my food the cashier girl decided that she would explain the screen on the wall as if I were not competent poor service very disappointed
