I must acknowledge my role in this situation – I usually bring my lunch and eat breakfast at home to avoid the overpriced and subpar options near VGH. However, due to assisting my niece with a project until 3 AM, I found myself lacking the time and energy to prepare a meal.
In the past, this place, formerly owned by an Asian family, offered decent egg muffins. However, with new ownership came increased prices, prompting me to avoid the establishment, except for the occasional coffee. Despite my personal boycott of Starbucks, limited food choices at VGH led me to give the breakfast sandwich here a chance, assuming it would maintain the previous owner's quality.
Regrettably, the reality was far from my expectations. The egg sausage English sandwich I ordered was not only overpriced at $6 but also turned out to be the most rancid and nauseating food I've ever consumed. The unpleasant aftertaste has lingered for over an hour.

Read moreWorst customer service. Saddest looking sandwich - with only 3 small strips of chicken that didn’t cover the size of the bread. I’ve been to the cafe 2-3 times in the last couple years and have greatly regretted it every time. I’ve been told that this place has lost a lot of its integrity - most likely due to a new owner. Working across the street, it would be nice if somewhere so conveniently located would be worth...
