When we inquired about the heating, we were told that it was usually a bit warmer. The menu did not offer all of the items that were raved about online. We decided to try the corn fritters, but were not impressed as they were flat and rubbery. The avocado and tomato salsa was also served fridge cold. The only redeeming aspect was the hot chocolate, which provided some much-needed warmth.

Got served an iced chocolate and when I said it was supposed to be a coffee the guy just put the coffee shots in...the chocolate! Um I asked for iced coffee not iced Mocha!! For the price I was not impressed at all!! Should have walked into the little cafe next door that was busy!! That was obviously a sign that I ignored.

The bread was old, hollandaise sauce was disgusting, all you could taste was vinegar and butter. One small slice of ham and a tiny piece of salmon was on it. In one...word atrocious . We also had a donat which was also old and extremely dry (we spent $37). Not to mention that there was no heating and was literally freezing. All customers were wearing jackets, hats and complimentary blankets. It was like eating outside on a very cold winter day. Do not go there, big waste of money!!
