    I think the food is very low quality and it takes forever for the food to come out. I don’t recommend this place and will likely never return. Go elsewhere don’t waste your time or money!

    If I could give the service a 0 I would. Older Lady at the front of the pick up section with glasses thinks shes above everyone around her and every single time I have gone there, have had to listen to her yelling about a range of things from personal drama to belittling coworkers in front of many guests. Inappropriate topics from time to time but the attitude and communication skills in general are abysmal to say the least. Last time I came, put in a pick up order at 12:30. Arrived at 1:10. Name was on a bag at pick up section but was not what I ordered. Explained that to this lady (who I was uncomfortable speaking to to begin with based on how I see her treat others) and all she had to say was that my order wasn’t made yet and that she has no idea what’s going on due to it being busy. Then waited another 30 minutes listening to her scream at coworkers before I finally got my food and left, not without letting her know how bad her service is, only to be told how she is excited to continue giving that level of service. Just bad all around on her part. Other coworkers seem nice and like they know how to communicate like normal people. Understandable that cafe business can cause an uprise in tensions backstage but coming from one who has worked in the field, you should always value customer service first. Just my thoughts.

    I ordered curbside pickup. I was told to come for 1:13 (on my lunch break…I ordered at 12:45) I showed up and waited. I tried to call the place as well and no answer. I went in and was clearly upset because I waited over 20 minutes in my car. The guy behind the counter named ISAIAH was completely rude to me telling me “I could have come inside and got it because he was busy” I ordered to not have to go in that’s the purpose. If it was too busy online ordering and that feature shouldn’t be an option. Mind you he did not once said sorry or tried to accommodate. He just gave me attitude. Very unprofessional way to handle it. I wouldn’t want him working for me. Or representing my company that way.
