GRAIN DE CAFE — Restaurant in Florida

It's hard to say anything about Grain De Cafe. On the surface they look nice and they gained my interest, but aside from slightly overpriced-underwhelming pastries, there isn't much here. The ownership doesn't seem pleasant or supportive. I came here to the reviews of this place, curious of what other people thought and saw that the owner has lurked review sites, ready to scold anyone that doesn't give him a perfect score. sad.

At the drop of a hat, he attempts to throw passive aggressive apologies and states that previous comments were from the previous owner instead of trying to understand the complaint. Laughable.

No doubt this review will be met with disgusting accusations of racism, abuse, or that the complaint is unfounded because this shop is somehow above reproach. You're not.

There is no excuse for having a rude wait-staff, nor inconsistency in your baking. Blaming crowd level, or blaming your wife is neither clever, nor graceful.

I enjoyed the coffee, but it was a bit sour.

-I am not interested in hearing any response or rebuttal from this location. I do not doubt it will be filled with complaining, false-statistic flinging, and deflecting. If you want people to leave good reviews, don't be so unreasonably unkind to those sharing their stances on your coffee-to-go shop.

No stars

As you can see, their inability to take criticism is apparent. I can only hope the respondent grows as a person because...

Saturday 12/29 I took my brother visiting from Sweden to Grain de Cafe. I have been there before and liked it then. This time was a BIG disappointment. He ordered baguette with pate de campagne - it was barely visible! I ordered baguette with chicken salad. The chicken salad was more like a spread, mayonnaise with "pulverized" chicken!!! A thin spread that was barely noticeable and tasted absolutely nothing!! We ordered regular coffee - it was so weak you could see the bottom of the cup! It was undrinkable! I pointed it out to the server who just shook her shoulders and said "ok".....and walked away. If you are trying to cut corners when the snowbirds are here, you are making a BIG mistake! Just remember when the snowbirds leave we are a "few" who live here permanently and your business might depend a little on us. With this quality of food and attitude, I will make sure never to set my foot at this cafe again. If you want a great French place, go to la Baguette...

This place is wonderful! I'm Filipino-American, my girlfriend is Greek-American, but we really appreciate what, we feel, is authentic French ambience. The lady who served us at the register (the owner?) was super nice and sweet. To me, it was a bonus that she had a French accent. She even made a little small talk about herself with my girlfriend, so that really gave us the 'warm-fuzzies'. We have patronized this place several times now, even though it's about an hour drive from our house, one-way. Do not expect low prices, but to my girlfriend and me, completely worth it! I tried eating breakfast here once, but this is not the place for me (for breakfast) since I'm...
