    Service and management are excessively rude, sandwiches were cold. And place was unswept and carpet was very dirty from food and crumbs. Avoid this location

    I’ve ate at several locations and the meal choices keep getting better!! I purchase a Turkey & Cheddar Sandwich & Cream of Chicken & Wild Rice Soup. I also tried a new drink today, it was the Pomegranate Hibiscus and it was good. I choose the drive thru service but the inside is always clean. They also have a bakery selection which is amazing for everyone’s needs. Give them a try and let me know what you think!!

    Terrible sandwiches and soups for ridiculously high prices. Terrible service too by employees who couldn’t care less. Who’s keeping this place in business? Don’t come here unless you want to spend $30 for a dumb sandwich and soup!
