It's truly baffling when someone in a customer-facing role - like the long, curly-haired guy barista at this coffee shop - decides to project their unhappiness and animosity onto customers who simply want coffee.
I was really looking forward to visiting this café, but unfortunately the experience fell short due to the extremely rude attitude of this barista. I asked if there was anything under $5, as there were no prices shown on their chalkboard menu. Their response was, "What are you broke?" I was completely taken aback. It felt wildly rude and unnecessary, especially for such a harmless question.
Feeling uncomfortable, I went to sit down on the patio to look up the menu online on my laptop instead. Before I even had the chance to do that - I was just connecting to their wifi first - they came to my table and rudely told me I need to buy something if I want to sit there. A customer can't even catch a break? At that point, I decided to leave and take my business elsewhere.
I understand that people have bad days, wake up on the wrong side of the bed, or may be going through things, and I'm trying give the benefit of the doubt. However, there's no excuse for projecting that kind of attitude onto customers, it's just icky and unprofessional. All this, at a coffee shop? After reading other reviews, it's disappointing but not surprising that to see that multiple people have had similarly rude experiences with this barista. I wish them well.
