Got the pear and (provolone?) grilled cheese, which was quite good. However, I have to give 3 stars because when you walk in, while the décor is nice, it is really confusing to figure out where to go. There's a counter immediately when you enter, but that's just for coffee and pastries. Go up the stairs on your right and there's another counter where you order food. But wait, where's the menu? There isn't one - you need to browse the pre-made salads and sandwiches in the fridge nearby, or the fresher sandwiches, pastas, and salads right next to the register. Me and my lunch group found ourselves walking in circles trying to figure out all there was to order. When we did finally order and pay, there wasn't any real way for them to know what table to deliver the food to once they warmed it up. While I received my food right away, others got their food from a seemingly confused kitchen staff member, who was looking around the room hoping for someone to recognize their food and call him over. And on top of that, some received pickles with their sandwich, and others didn't, despite it being identical orders.

BONUS: Check-in here on Yelp and get a free cookie! They are REALLY good.

So in summary - yummy food, but a poor experience...

We originally went here because the google reviews were so favorable. We, unfortunately, are at Wills Eye Hospital a lot lately, so are making an adventure out of the appointments by trying new and fun places to eat, and sharing the experiences with our friends. It is a very cute place. We enjoy 50% of the items, 50% of them are not our faves, but that's just us. The turkey and slaw-yum. The vegan rice pudding-absolutely fabulous. During the week, the barista who makes my coffee-she's awesome and kind. Nate-on the other hand-needs classes on courtesy, as well as how to make coffee. He was outright rude because we wanted a larger cup for our iced expresso so we could walk with it and add a splash of milk. Simply turned his back and never gave us a larger cup. And the chai tasted like cinnamon flavored water. I can make a better chai, but that defeats the purpose of an outing. Dependent upon who is the barista at Talula's will now determine whether or not I will be getting my daily coffee at Talula's. If Nate is the barista-the answer will be a flat out "no". Why have someone work with the public who...
