For example, it would be great to have softened butter with my toasted bagel instead of those hard, brick-like packets that are impossible to spread.

The customer service, especially at the To Go/Online Orders pickup, is poor—staff often seem unapproachable and unfriendly. The restrooms at this location are terrible; despite visiting almost daily, they are consistently dirty and have a strong unpleasant odor. Additionally, parking is always a major problem.
