Freel Perk Cafe — Restaurant in South Lake Tahoe

Such Extremely overpriced Mediocrity! Since their prices for everything on the menu was priced double what it is actually worth, I got the cheapest food on the menu, the turkey panini. The turkey was cheep lunch meat and the bread was no better than cheap “wonder white bread.” This would normally be worth no more than $6 and they charged eleven for this cheap lunch-box sandwich. I wanted to get a soda can, but instead of charging a dollar or less for what you would get out of a vending machine, they charged almost $4 for a small can of soda!

There was quite the lineup after we placed our orders. Just one person was working behind the counter. A blonde girl ..she did everything, was calm, made us the BEST lattes and the most delicious salmon bagel. She was genuine and friendly. Today wasn’t as calm feeling and nothing really felt or tasted the same. Energy is everything. I’ll definitely be back. Amazing how well the first girl ran it yesterday. I’ll get her name and work schedule and make the 30 minute drive from stateline when she’s there running the...
