Just arrived early for a bus and wanted to get a quick snack. So I went to the quick bistro on the bridge level. I've ordered 2x hotdogs and ended up leaving without them, because even after 12minutes it was not done. I was in the quick bistro, so I expected times lower than in the restaurant upstairs, but if I went there I'd have had a lunch already! There was a back log of maybe 10 orders, but it wasn't because of lack of staff or troubles with the cashier. It was just ridiculously ineffective. They had there typically 5x items they were selling, yet it took them more time to serve an under heatlamp heated cinnamon snail longer than it takes in McDonald's to serve a whole menu. Extremely painful to watch the slowness, and ineffectiveness. If u find yourself there walk to McDonald's over 2 light intersection, it will still be faster than getting anything there.
Ps. Lot of the the orders were really primitive, such as ice cream cone (for self service) that the serving person would grab with steel tongues, to put a tissue on it and put it in a stand....like if he grabbed it directly with the tissue, he'd leave the same mount of germs on it, but fone it 5x faster?!...

⭐☆☆☆☆ – A Roasted Potato That Should’ve Retired Years Ago
Let me start by saying: I did not come to IKEA for a thrilling culinary adventure, but I also didn’t expect to be served a roasted potato with visible battle wounds.
What arrived on my plate looked less like food and more like an unearthed fossil. The inside was bruised and darkened, with suspicious discoloration that made me question every decision I made leading up to this moment. It was dry on one side, oddly soggy on the other, and had the structural integrity of a forgotten apple left in a gym bag.
The black streak running through it? I’m not sure if it was a burn mark, a bruise, or the start of its villain origin story. Either way — not appetizing. If this potato were a person, it would be writing a bitter memoir titled “Boiled Dreams & Burnt Promises.”
Taste? Like betrayal with a hint of old dishwater.
This is the kind of roasted potato that makes you reconsider your life choices — and whether you really needed to eat at...
Read moreAs a British person I wasn’t expecting the fish and chips to be matching what I get from home but I was at least expecting the food to be served hot. Everything on the plate wasn’t even very warm and it was a big disappointment.
I also ordered the garlic bread out of curiosity. That too wasn’t at all warm and cold.
I know it’s meant to be a low cost option but least have it served hot like I expect from the UK equivalent IKEAs.
Would not recommend. If you in the area I would recommend scrolling a bit further to the shopping mall if you want...
