I've been going to C2K for a while, and I have never had a problem with a bartender . I'm not made of money, I have tipped before and there are a couple of times where I haven't tip because their are time where I need to keep some of my money and I just want to spend a few bucks to go out and enjoy myself for a bit, but I took my wife for a little small date at C2K and I just want to enjoy myself for a bit, but when we got done and when we were about to leave, I realized that I have forgotten my key and I went back to get them and the bartender yelled at me and was being rude that didn't tip her and no doubt she was really nice and very friendly, but then she berated me and calling me rude for not tipping in front of everyone. I'm sorry, I'm a working man and I would like to keep some of my money for a rainy day, and I came here to spend time with my wife because I barely see her because I work horrendous hours at the airport and it was a good time for me to finally have a little small date with my wife who is a good mom and is mostly at home with my kids most of the day so I'm sorry that I didn't tip you, or else I would have. I don't want them to think that I'm coming off as rude for not tipping, but at least pull me to the side and communicate with me on how you feel about it then I can be able to fix it, but the way she betrated me in front of everyone in the bar, was humiliating and I don't think that I can ever come back to this place. I wish that they put up a sign about tipping and stuff so that next time when I come, I can be ready to give them a tip. I'm a working man as a ramp agent at the airport. I know what it is like to work very hard and stuff. Communicating is key, and berating someone in front of everyone in the bar is not the way it goes. Other than that, the place is really good, but they really need to work on...
Read moreLol this place makes me laugh. Their menu has a funny tag: "This is not a five star restaurant, it's a bar". So I tested the theory with my breakfastand asked for cloth table service. The banter.. Still laughing. She now calls me five star.
While you may not be a michelin, you have the best breakfast in town bar none. I should know I've surely been to all of them. You make me feel welcome and laugh and it's clean and yes it's a very old bar but that just brings me back too my home town. Homemade sausage, eggs over easy... Why can no one else get this. Perfect hash browns... why can no one else get THIS... The up charge sourdough tastes homemade. Mmmm. Wish I was there today. Great place limited hours but worth it! Limited menu (it's a bar) so be sure they have...
