On my way in a gentleman who informed me he was in-between residences and going through a period of hardship asked if I could purchase him a coffee, we went in ordered and sat down to have a conversation over our cup of Joe, I went up to the counter and asked for the bathroom code and the extremely rude lady informed me it was for customers only knowingly that I was a paying customer, I reminded her that I was a paying customer, she then went on to tell me they have a strict policy, it is appalling that this awful lady instantly judged me because I decided to help out another person who was noticeably Un housed at the time, and struggling ive never experienced such nasty, ugly, down right horrible judgemental behavior at any establishment in my life, I will never eat there again and I will make sure that the community is aware of the way this business conducts itself, absolutely sickening, she...

THE WORK'S 013123th 920am I was confused about the 20 I thought it was 37 cases street department 207. That's where Bob Griffin I thought had told me my money wasn't good now. You decide should he apologize now or later . But I wanted it out evidently. Was this spot in this town as 04101 where I was told my money was no good or anywhere else especially Carthage.

040423mo 756am GOOD SITE TO RALLY AT THE BEST WATER MAKES THE BEST COFFEE AND YOU'LL FIND IT HERE HAVING FUN WITHOUT ROCKET SCIENCE BEING INVOLVED AT ALL. TO WIT; IT'S A SPELLING CONTEST SO WE'RE GOING TO TRY TO WRITE THE WORD NOZZLE PLEASE DON'T INVOLVE THE LETTER C OR D FOR DELTA FORCE COULD BE HAZARDOUS TO YOUR HEALTH. THAT CIVIL SERVICE THAT WORKED FOR THE CITY AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED WHAT DOES HE THINK ABOUT THE "N" BOMB NOW ?

030123fr 10am GOOD COFFEE AND BETTER COMPANY FOR IT.

SINCERELY...

This location rocks! My favorite is the cheese bagel with bacon scallion cream cheese. Nowhere else even comes close to their delicious bagels and amazing customer service. I usually visit this location once or twice a week, and staff are always very friendly and take the time to get to know their customers. Today I pulled up out front and called because I couldn't tell if they were open. Mark answered the phone and said that they had modified their hours due to Covid, and that they weren't open for another 20 minutes. He asked if I was in the area and if he could get my order started, to which I said that I would just come back when they opened. When he realized that I was out front, he told me that he'd let me in and take my order. I wasn't having the best morning beforehand, but this made my day and I really...

A dagwood sandwich should not have one folded slice of turkey, one slice of provolone, tomato and a big pile of lettuce to make the sandwich look big. The 1/2 lettuce sandwich and tiny cup of soup will cost you $12. Atmosphere is nice, outdoor seating, decent service, none of which compensate for the big rip off the dagwood sandwich is. Not sure how they have a conscience serving this sandwich. Pictures of sandwich below.

Good service, food and coffee ☕! I had one of the light roast drip coffees with a Cinnamon Chip Scone to wash down the coffee. For my breakfast I had the Sliced Smoked Salmon Sandwich and the letter of the day is "S"! I liked the window 🪟 view out onto the street. As I approached the Cafe, I witnessed my first black squirrel 🐿️. I've only seen the typical gray and a few reds I recommend this cafe.

Very friendly and honest with recommendations as it was my first time in. The food is pretty healthy and is typical cafe offerings like melts, bakery, salad, etc. Great price for exchange. Unclear but I believe the drip coffee and tea are complimentary with purchase....They serve breakfast all day, I just was here for lunch though. I would return after this visit.
