The Pod — Restaurant in Gretna

Bought a toasted bagel egg and cheese sandwich from here. Now I get inflation, and I get overselling and being a cheapskate, but this was insane. If you order a bacon egg and cheese bagel from here, just don't. You're wasting $7+ for two thin, barely cooked half strips of bacon and a whole folded egg and cheese. I'll say for asking for a sandwich that has bacon in the name, you'd think they might make it stand out, because the name of it is a Bacon, egg and cheese. Not a sausage, ham and bacon, egg and cheese. That, I would understand 1 full strip of bacon being on it. But this? This is a joke, insulting really as I'm also a northerner. I can pay $14 for 1 bagel and get at least 4 strips of bacon with oversized egg, I'd pay double to have an extra strip or two of bacon on this thing that I wasted money on. Don't go here unless you like to overpay for nothing...

Driving from Charlotte to DC and desperate for a good coffee and healthy lunch, we avoided the McDonald’s and Subway’s on route 29 and ducked into a small town called Gretna. A quick Google search pointed us to The Pod, which ended up being a foodie oasis on this long drive. High bright ceilings with industrial black pops of color for beautiful modern decor, we were greeted by a friendly team of women behind the counter. The menu included soups, salads, sandwiches, and breakfasts - including some delicious coffee and tea options. My cafe mocha was delightful. Simple syrup, oat and almond milk, and even a “plate” of food for your dog on the umbrella’ed patio, shows how thoughtful the owner was in crafting her offerings. Lovely stop that anyone passing through Gretna should come...

Was passing through. On my way back from a trip. Was really just wanting a good cup of coffee. Was told about this place. Checked out the reviews they looked really good. I was very disappointed. In a very simple order. Definitely tired of getting coffee that isn’t made correctly. Ordered a cold brew with a pumpkin cold foam. Clarified no sweetener no cream aside from the flavored foam. When my order came, it looked like a glass of milk. Pumpkin flavored milk. Could not taste any coffee at all. No foam. If you’re into sweet, sugary drinks with a touch of coffee in this place would be fine. But if you’re avid coffee drinker, I would not recommend. But people are nice atmosphere is really pretty the food that other people are even looks great, but the coffee was...
