    Walked in and ordering had to be done on the kiosk. Ordering was simple but only way to get a receipt was to enter email. Ordered a couple of food items and drinks not drinking glasses available so you had to wait until your order was ready to get a drink. Pager never buzzed but wife happen to see our order sitting at the window when she was walking to the restroom. Her bagel was not toasted and the cinnamon roll I had was cool to touch and looked as if was certainly didn’t look like a fresh baked. Customer service was a zero but I guess self-serve is the goal as we watched one individual walk in, fill his cup with soda and walk right back out.

    I got the pick 2 chipotle chicken avocado melt with tomato soup the image speaks for itself on the quality of the produce that they choose to serve to costumers and as well as the quantities because my soup was 1/3 of the way full
