Ordered a hot chocolate and a sandwich (not a complicated order). Arrived at the time they told me to pick it up and waited extra 20 minutes. Turns out they already gave my hot chocolate to someone else, who then returned it saying he ordered a different drink. Witnessed them take the lid off, sniff it, and proceed to give it to me. It was cold and I asked if they could remake it. The guys working there threw their hands up, exasperated and ticked off as if I’m the one who messed up… awful experience.

On a whim I decided to order some mini cookies but I was unable to finish waiting for them. A manager was lovely and offered to keep it aside for me so I could pick up after work.
Well it wasn't until past 8pm I suddenly remembered about these cookies. I rushed over and my heart sank when I saw all different staff. I asked for a manager and geared up to explain the full story and be met with confusion but he knew already what was going on and handed me my order. It had been kept aside for me since 11.45am!!
That is some serious customer service- thank you so much! You guys are an amazing team
