    Went thru drive-thru for coffee and egg sandwich. Fast service. Coffee was pretty good and egg sandwich was tasty and generous size. We got the light and dark roast coffee and my mother really liked the light roast. The dark roast was very good too but I guess I like a really rich tasty dark roast. 2 egg sandwiches and 2 medium coffees cost about $20.00.
