Central Sip — Restaurant in Town of Dix

One more review. If you were the extremely impatient family of four sitting outside tonight I hope the rest of your vacation goes faster for you, so you can go home. How many times did you go inside to ask how much longer it would be to get your food? Did you happen to notice that the place was packed (for good reason, of course) when you arrived? Did you notice the obvious sign on the door about their being short staffed? I really care about the employees at this restaurant (I am local) so I had the waitress, Gwen, tell the kitchen to prepare your food before ours even though we had been there for awhile before you arrived. I could wait and I just wanted you gone so my family could enjoy the evening and the staff could get back to serving everyone equally, not just those who felt privileged. I wonder if you even noticed that we were still not eating when you were finishing up. I have to say I was a bit taken aback when you all bowed your heads to pray when your food arrived. It was quite a show all around. For us it was simply another great meal...

Our order, a bacon, egg, and cheese on an everything bagel, took over 30 minutes to come out, and we only interacted with a team member once when checking on it. For a quicker morning experience, we’d probably opt for a dedicated coffee shop or breakfast at the hotel across the street next time.

That said, we’re really rooting for Central Sip to find its rhythm. With a few operational tweaks and a clearer guest experience, it could definitely become a...

We stopped down here for breakfast because my husband remembered the place as a gas station MANY years ago and were curious to see the changes.

The staff were very polite. We got breakfast sandwiches. My husband's only complaint was they only offered it on bagels. He isn't a big bagel person.

The building is very tastefully decorated. There is plenty of seating in two rooms.

They have odds and ends you can purchase through the store for gifts or personal use.

We place our order at the counter and paid via a cash register but they do have two kiosks for order placing.

The building is handicap accessible. Parking is very limited. They have a couple of spots and then you need to park on the street, which there isn't much right in front of...
