Last month, I decided to stop by for a quick bite while on lunch break from jury duty -- all to say, it's a short walk from the courthouse.
To drink, I ordered the Pacific Fog. This is my go-to option because it combines espresso, lavender, honey, and pink sea salt; the salt amplifies the flavors and makes for a more interesting experience when compared to a typical latte.
I usually don't ask for recommendations, but this time around I did ask the cashier for a suggestion. Sometimes I think it's valuable/telling how the staff describe the food and their preferences (if they don't eat the food, I take that as a sign). This time around, the cashier halfheartedly offered a seasonal item or the vegan sandwich. Fair enough. I ordered the vegan sandwich and took a table number. In the meantime, they would prepare my drink and call my name out when ready.
My drink was ready in no time. However, the space can get very noisy. Since the music was loud, patrons had to raise their volume to have conversations. This is not necessarily a problem, but if you're trying to have a conversation or don't have the best hearing, then it can be stressful.
It was busy, so I expected a wait. I did notice that the patrons who ordered after me were getting their food fairly quickly. After waiting for about 25 to 30 minutes, I decided to ask the cashier how long I should wait. At this point, it became clear that they forgot my order.
I was assured the food would come out. I sat down and waited. The sandwich arrived soon after, hot out the microwave. The sandwich was extremely salty, bland, and had an excessive amount of vegan cheese. I took two bites and tossed it. I got some tacos on my way back to the courthouse.
I'd recommend the drink, but not the vegan sandwich. If you're a vegan, you deserve better.
