I discovered this place via a church newsletter after a Sunday mass. I was hopeful.
Okay here it is.
1. You don’t get to sit and wait to order. You need to queue to place your order by the counter.
2. When ordering, you get charged extra for each little piece like a bacon strip is $2.25, etc so it’s not like a breakfast plate is $14.+, you get charged for a piece of meat each time.
3. Then get a big card game, sit down, and get ready to WAIT….15 mins later.. still waiting… 30 mins later still waiting.. no coffee no water no nothing but just waiting :(
4.Finally, food came.. no coffee.. lady clarified which coffee was ordered and 5 mins later, coffee came at last!
5.Food- my first reaction was “oh okay”…then silence. It’s our first time dining there and if you’re like me always wondering how is this place different from the others then prepare to get disappointed. Photos of food looked good but in real life it’s… not. Waffle is limp and stale. Chicken is dry and cold, bacon is too salty and chewy. Eggs are well eggs I’d walk out if they got that wrong!, sausage was maybe from Kroger. I like Kroger so that was good, coffee? I wish they do it like McDonalds at least…
6.Price/value for money- I paid $80+ inc tip. For what its worth, I never learned. I am such a “let’s try something new person “ and then I get disappointed and decide that’ll be the first and last. I suppose I learned not to put this food joint another try.
7.overall, we came as first timers full of good expectations and left feeling frustrated and disappointed. That’s awful no? It would have been nice to talk of how good the food was and plan when we’re coming back. But such is not the case rather, we all agreed that was it! I believe in individuality so I asked my family how they would rate their experience and in unison they were like1,2,3. I thought that was funny! My husband said it’s ok he gave it 3, my mom said I just had to eat cause it’s food and you paid for it. She gave it 1. My daughter scored it 2 cause of the “discount”, so I gave it back to the bloke on the till who claimed to be doing the job the first time. (Took a while before he got our orders right.)
8.The verdict- No I don’t recommend this place for breakfast or brunch. I would go Egg and I or iHop, or Omelette House (yet to write my reviews on them places). It’s strange how I would be so keen to flag a review when I don’t get my money’s worth on an experience and not so keen to review when I do. Perhaps I feel the need to warn people somehow. We did not get to try the sweet looking waffles though so them may be a different story.
Thanks for reading, sorry it’s long.I hope I helped you a bit on your decision whatever it may be. Hopefully as well that you’re luckier than I. Have a good eat. Be blessed x
