The only positive thing I can say is that they have a large assortment of items that they offer, however we paid $28 for a cup of cold mixed vegetables, bland (I only asked not to make them super spicy) and two slices of bread with the thinnest chicken breast I’ve ever encountered at a restaurant. We asked for a chicken sandwich without pickle and lettuce/tomato. The chicken sandwich alone (no chips, no side items, nothing) = $15.95.
When I went back inside to ask if they really meant to sell the sandwich with such a tiny / thin slice of chicken, they said yes, we have a new boss and he makes us charge for this much for this small portion.
When I asked for an extra portion of chicken they said they would charge six extra dollars. Which means that the price I paid originally = $15.95 - $6 = included $9.95 for two slices of bread 😳
The owner came out apologized and said there was a new cook and they do cut the chicken breast in half but the cook made the sandwich too thin.
At first I was relieved thinking they actually were decent humans and would give me a normal size chicken breast so I could feed my child.
Turns out they rearranged the same size sandwich and repacked it and handed it back to me, letting me think that they actually handed me more which they did NOT.
Honestly I think it’s outrageous to take advantage of people and charge so much and give so very little. All the food was bland, absolutely tasteless.
I know we live in an economy where everybody’s hurting and every thing has gone up in price, but this was blatant disrespect and taing advantage of customers.
20 seconds later another customer who had ordered a pizza for two friends came in and asked for ranch dressing. The restaurant charged three dollars each for these tiny cups of ranch dressing, the size of a ketchup side item at a fast food restaurant. The man needed three, one for each person. = $9 😳They were about to hand it back when one of their friends said he was in a hurry and really hungry so the other man decided to pay for it.
also, as this little deli is situated right on the property of a gas station, and has plenty of customers driving by, I don’t believe he has to bend over backwards to get customers.
bottom line, a total disappointment. We’re both still very hungry and out of nearly $30.00
this could’ve been a highlight in our day and instead it’s been an utter disappointment (and I hate complaining, I love to give compliments where they are due, but this...
Read moreLocated next to, and attached to the "76" gas station's driveway, "THE SHACK IN THE BACK" is not really a shack. It's a uniquely styled, small, contemporary coffee shop that produces really good drinks, sandwiches and salads, for which you pay a premium price.
The eatery is split in two by refrigerated display cases. The wheelchair accessible, customer side is tight. A half dozen strangers will soon became close friends. The open kitchen side is much larger.
Many refrigerator cases, which span the customer's side wall, are stocked with the usual drinks and a few high end specialty flavors. The selection of candies and treats, on the opposite wall, would make Whole Foods blush. Outside, a few wheelchair accessible tables hug the edge of the gas station's driveway. There is no inside seating.
The wheelchair accessible restrooms, located North, across the concrete pad, are part of the "76" service station. This is an upscale neighborhood, so gasoline is priced accordingly. The limited no charge parking has a single wheelchair accessible space that is located next to...
