McBrayer's Hometown Cafe — Restaurant in Corning

I have eaten here twice. The first time I dined in, and had an amazing Denver omelette with country gravy. Then a couple weeks ago I wasn't feeling well and wanted some soup or chili for lunch. I stopped by and asked what the soup was, she told me they were out. I asked if they had chili, she told me yesterday. I asked if it was spicy, because I have an ulcer, and can't do it. She said absolutely not it's homemade the best chili you'll have. So I spent $12 on chili and some bread, went back to work, took one bite and threw it right in the trash. It was definitely spicy, and not like any chili I've had before not to mention it was not warmed to temperature, the cheese never melted. So had it not been spicy I would have had to microwave it. I was pretty bummed out about the whole experience, it was the only chance I had to have a hot meal that day, and it wasn't hot, it was money straight...

Visited Corning to be loaded at one of the local plants. Was advised by one of the workers about a cafe on the corner. Cloak and daggered it around the block. Bad timing, they were closed... grills were down. Gota respect "quitting time". Half a block headed back, and I hear someone yelling, "YO"!!! I get within hearing distance, and a guy (quite the cordial gent) from the shop says, "the chef can make you a cold sandwich and a drink". "PERFECT"!!! Decided on the Italian sub. Was informed of the good reviews. ALL UNDERSTATEMENTS. One of the best sandwiches I've ever had. If you're ever in Corning, it's a must. Not to mention, the most friendly staff (and patrons) you'll ever have the pleasure of meeting. Can't thank u guys enuff....

Terrible first experience. Angel laughed at my friend when he asked a simple question. He then continued to heckle my friend as he went back behind the counter to other waiters. He wasn't very far, I could hear and see him. I felt belittled, totally disrespectful and not called for. No way to treat a paying costumer. After a 30 minute wait for my food they brought out the wrong order. I didn't care, I just wanted to eat. To add we weren't checked up on at all through the course of our meal. I had to flag someone down. I brought up my wrong order when I went to pay and they actually tried to charge me more than the original receipt. I won't be going back nor do I recommend...
