"If
you
are
looking
for
a
playground,
go
to
a
playground"
I
recently
visited
"The
Henchmen"
Café
with
my
friends
with
small
walking
toddlers,
hoping
for
a
pleasant
relaxed
dining
experience.
However,
I
must
say
that
our
visit
was
far
from
satisfactory,
and
I
feel
compelled
to
share
my
negative
experience.
To
start
with,
we
were
initially
drawn
to
the
café
by
the
presence
of
a
gated
area
with
toys,
which
led
us
to
assume
it
was
an
enclosed
space
for
children
to
play
safely.
Unfortunately,
our
kids
kept
escaping
as
a
member
of
the
staff
repeatedly
opened
the
gate.
Concerned
for
their
safety,
we
kindly
asked
the
staff
to
keep
the
gate
closed.
Instead
of
addressing
our
concerns
professionally,
the
presumed
manager
approached
us
and
responded
rudely,
saying,
"If
you
are
looking
for
a
playground,
go
find
a
playground“
This
dismissive
and
impolite
remark
left
a
sour
taste
in
our
mouths
and
cut
out
visit
short.
As
we
were
leaving,
not
a
single
staff
member
said
farewell
or
thank
you
for
coming,
a
basic
courtesy
in
service.
Moreover,
the
quality
of
the
food
at
"The
Henchmen"
Café
was
subpar.
I
ordered
the
Rooster
sandwich,
which
took
an
astonishingly
long
time—over
45
minutes—to
arrive
at
our
table.
Considering
it
was
a
simple
dish,
the
excessive
wait
was
entirely
unjustified.
When
the
sandwiches
finally
arrived,
they
were
disappointing.
The
ingredients
seemed
lackluster,
and
the
overall
taste
fell
far
below
my
expectations.
It
was
evident
that
little
care
was
put
into
the
preparation
of
the
meal.
Aside
from
the
issues
mentioned
above,
the
overall
atmosphere
of
the
café
was
underwhelming.
The
service
was
slow.
The
lack
of
professionalism
and
courtesy
demonstrated
by
the
manager
set
a
negative
tone
for
the
entire
experience.
As
a
customer,
I
expect
a
certain
level
of
service,
especially
when
dining
out
at
a
place
that
has
reviews
for
being
"kid
friendly".
Unfortunately,
"The
Henchmen"
Café
failed
to
meet
even
the
most
basic
standards.
I
would
caution
others
to
think
twice
before
visiting
this
establishment,
as
there
are
undoubtedly
better
options
available
in
the
area.
In
summary,
our
visit
to
"The
Henchmen"
Café
was
marred
by
a
gate
that
was
repeatedly
left
open
despite
our
concerns,
a
rude
and
unaccommodating
manager,
below-average
food
quality,
and
an
excessively
long
wait
time
for
a
simple
sandwich.
Regrettably,
I
cannot
recommend
this
café
based
on
my
disappointing
experience.
