I
came
here
with
my
mother
as
a
means
of
exploring
new
places
to
eat
at.
However
to
my
disappointment
there
is
little
to
compliment
about
the
food
that
I
received
at
a
price
of
$11.99,
which
was
the
Old
Fashioned
Pot
Roast.
I’m
only
giving
them
a
little
slack
since
as
a
bakery
something
like
a
pot
roast
wouldn’t
be
their
speciality
compared
to
other
menu
items
such
as
pancakes,
toasts,
and
pastries.
With
an
order
total
at
$32
combined
with
coffee,
I
thought
it
was
a
bit
pricey.
The
cashier
also
attempted
to
force
my
mother
into
paying
a
tip,
saying
that
there
were
only
button
options
1,
2,
and
3(pre-determined
tip
amounts
in
%)
on
the
kiosk.
When
in
reality,
option
4(custom
tipping)
was
also
a
thing
that
she
didn’t
mention.
Overall
service
was
minimal
to
none,
but
I
understand
since
the
place
was
filled
with
people
when
we
were
there.
It
took
a
bit
long
for
our
food
to
come
out
and
when
it
did
it
initially
looked
good-
the
gravy
on
top
of
the
“pot
roast”
made
it
seem
as
if
it
would
be
nice
and
hot,
having
the
same
effect
for
the
mashed
potatoes,
which
I
noticed
that
it
was
scooped
to
look
like
vanilla
ice
scream
scoops
of
three.
It
was
a
telltale
sign
for
me
that
the
mashed
potatoes
on
my
plate
were
likely
not
made
in
house
but
rather
pre-made
somewhere
else
and
frozen,
or
was
simply
instant
mashed
potatoes.
Most
importantly,
some
parts
of
it
were
also
cold
even
with
the
gravy
on
top.
When
looking
at
it
from
a
customer’s
perspective,
that
is
equivalent
to
that
of
a
slap
on
the
face
after
paying
a
higher
than
average
price
for
a
simple
meal.
The
only
plausible
part
of
it
was
the
gravy
which
I
enjoyed
tasting.
It
had
a
hint
of
saltiness
and
still
retained
the
richness
of
a
brown
beef
gravy.
Next,
the
beef
portion
of
the
pot
roast.
It
was
rather
dry,
and
chewy
in
texture.
It
was
also
not
hot
whatsoever,
and
felt
like
someone
had
microwaved
it
a
few
seconds
short.
Some
pieces
of
the
beef
felt
overcooked
and
came
apart
like
wood
chips
out
of
a
playground.
There
were
no
dense
pieces
of
meat
like
a
fresh
pot
roast
would
be
made
out
of,
and
no
cooked
vegetable
in
sight(like
carrots,
celery,
onion),
apart
from
the
half-steamed
broccolis
that
came
with
the
order.
The
broccoli
was
barely
cleaned
properly/not
trimmed
to
be
presentable.
My
final
deduction
of
this
review
is
that
even
if
the
food
I
got
that
time
wasn’t
up
to
expectation,
I
wouldn’t
mind
coming
here
again
since
the
pastries
still
caught
my
eye.
However
if
you
are
planning
to
come
here
for
meat-based
meals
I
wouldn’t
recommend.
Next
time
I
am
here
I
will
try
the
breakfast
items
instead.
