    Poor customer service. Rude & refused to speak to me or acknowledge me & other customers as they talked about their personal lives amongst themselves. A lady next to me has to say "umm excuse me" to which they rolled their eyes. One walkex off & another said one second. Quite rudely. Not clean. Weird smell. Very sad & disappointing. Management doesn't seem to care. Samantha Carter as a general manager the community deserves better managing.

    Regarding my recent order, I requested that half of my bagel be toasted. Upon receiving the order, the staff member discarded the bagel, despite my initial instructions. This occurred after I had already communicated my preference for a partially toasted bagel. While the error originated from the staff, they expressed dissatisfaction with the need to remake the order.
