Grind N Crepe - OCCOQUAN

A cozy spot to enjoy good food and coffee with friends. In the '80s, this building used to be a dollhouse shop.

The food was really the only positive aspect of this restaurant. We grabbed menus and sat outside, then went in to place our order. After waiting 30 minutes, we had to go back inside to inquire about our drinks, which had just been sitting on the counter. We waited another 45 minutes for our food, while the table next to us received prompt service the entire time. The bathroom facilities were lacking, and it seemed like the staff was more interested in chatting and using their phones than in greeting or serving customers. I'm not one to write reviews often, but I believe the employees could certainly improve their service.

We arrived around 8 AM and found only one young woman working. She was polite, but clearly overwhelmed. We decided not to order any food, as the wait would have been too long. We did order coffee, but I'm not sure I would do that again.

The restaurant needs to improve their order-taking process. We were overlooked by several customers who arrived after us, and it took a while for us to receive our order. Unfortunately, the food made me feel unwell for the rest of the day.

The service was incredibly slow, taking nearly an hour for just two crepes and a slider. This was made worse by the unruly patrons during breakfast hours. I won't be returning and wouldn't recommend this place.
