Athens Coffee Shop — Restaurant in Paterson

This place used to be one of my favorite breakfast spots only because they had a moderately priced breakfast menu but every time I visited the problems progressed and today was the last straw. Previous problems were like dining in and not one of the three waitresses assisted my table. I was in the coffee shop for roughly 15 minutes pregnant and hungry and wasn’t even give a menu as I sat and waited meanwhile there were other customers inside, another occurrence was when someone stole food off my plate as I went to the restroom, last but not least the icing on the cake is being charged extra money for items and never receiving them. Example; I ordered 2 “Big Breakfast Platters” with chocolate chips (extra charge) , scrambled eggs with cheddar cheese & 1 with American (extra charge) substitute round sausage patty for both (extra charge). Both breakfasts costed me about $30 when I got home both scrambled eggs was made with American cheese and the pancakes didn’t have chocolate chips. I called to explain the issue and the waitress told me that they cook said he put chocolate chips and that she seen them add chocolate chips. I requested that if I come to bring the plate back if they can issue a refund...

I don’t even want to say what I saw on my plate. I wouldn’t come back anytime soon unless if it improves :) very pricy for a food that isnt that good neither . I don’t like to be a picky person but for this...

Everyday the prices go up and down. There’s no way that an egg and cheese sandwich cost almost $9 on wheat toast. It’s always homeless people in there begging while you’re eating. The owners wife is always jacking the prices up. If you don’t eat meat you gotta worry about your eggs tasting like bacon…like it’s freaking horrible. Oh did I forget it’s a freaking fight to get inside whether it’s the people begging for change outside the place or the illegal stuff going on in front of the place. I wouldn’t...
