    I came in with my soccer team, I came into the store and let the two working ahead of time that 18-25 will be coming in. I was then rudely spoken to by whoever the “manager” was who left her only team member to cook and make smoothies alone. She then refused to fix the order that they messed up and would not let me speak to the manager. She would not tell me her name or have her come to speak to me. As someone who works in food this store is a disgrace and the women in management, all black hoodie with an alternative look, larger women, black hair and bangs, needs to take a customer service class. If I could give negative stars I would.
