This used to be my go-to place to stop and grab a quick something to start my day. But the last handful of times I've gone have been bad experiences.
When their card machine messes up (which it does often), they take it to 'help' and give themselves a 20%+ tip without asking. EVERY. TIME. Which is insane for a dive thru to even ask for let alone do without consent. Iced coffee that was all ice. I got to 380 and it was gone (when it normally would've lasted me half the morning) but still filled to the top with ice. "Hot" coffee that is tepid at best, and tasted stale. Sandwiches burned with hard bread. Really good hashbrowns though.
I loved this place, which is why I gave it so many chances to see if it was a one-off or fluke. I doubt I'll be coming back and am just disappointed because it was so good...

Read moreFirst time in today. I had a great experience. I went in as they give you 5 dollars off on a drink for your birthday. Get the app for it. I got the red eye with dark roast. The espresso was great and the coffee was smooth. It looks like they have a diverse menu of options for coffee other places do not have which makes it unique. I wish I remembered her name but the barista was so very nice and welcoming and said Happy Birthday which 2 other places did not. I would definitely return here for the coffee...
