When they opened there was a sign that explained the pricing reflected and living wage and that the tip was built in to the menu prices. (Most expensive spot for a cap and munchie) then one day a tip line appeared at check out. What?!? I thought it was part of the high price?? Needless to say not tipping puts me in an awkward situation If I don’t tip is it because I don’t appreciate their cheerful competence? If I add it in now I’m at $16 for a coffee and roll…. I just go someplace else farther but also good (price/budget issues) thanks for letting me vent.

For that price we assumed we get a normal slice of pizza. We were quite surprised when we found out that slice of pizza actually means one third of a slice. Based on this experience, we would not support this business further, because we feel like it is cheapy with its customers, if not right out scammy. Food: 1 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
