Bagels & Boba Cafe

Local diner with great homecooked food. I'm honestly not a frequent diner at such establishments,…read morehonestly it's been decades since been here but was good decision after leaving from a medical appointment in the area. Service was nice and prompt, with the server being very welcoming with the right amount of attention. If you're not familiar do understand that it isn't a fancy or new place, but the ambiance is what one would expect of a local diner that is on a well traveled road. I know there was a time where there was more traffic headed through Delaware on route 40 that allowed for trucking and traveling patrons to frequently stop and the location probably doesn't get as much of that anymore. But it was relatively full and busy on a Monday mid-morning.

It's an old school diner and the building looks dated. Good spot for an affordable breakfast and coffee.

I was dining alone so I was put at the counter which was interesting because I saw the kitchen staff preparing all meals. Con of this was hearing the host argue with a staff member or two! I ordered the mushroom gravy and it came with hash browns. It was extremely flavorful but maybe too rich? Everything was an add on for this. Egg and biscuit were an extra $6. I can tell this place is inventive and takes great care with their food so I see why the prices are so high. Kitchen staff also gets tipped out. Everything was different and good but my biscuit was so so dry which was sad! The scrapple also came out black. Some things I'd hopped were better!

What a neat place! I was looking for a new historic spot to take my sister, who was visiting from…read moreMissouri, and found this gem. I love the history and really appreciated the photos throughout the tavern that share its story. There are two dining options: the bar area or the dining room. Since my sister and I were there for lunch and in a more casual mood, we opted for the bar. They offered a nice selection of beers, wines, and cocktails, along with plenty of variety on the food menu. We started with the oysters, which were meaty and full of flavor, then topped things off with the Chesapeake flatbread. They were generous with the toppings, and the crabmeat was fabulous! We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and will definitely be back!

So, I took it upon myself to check out the menu. The worker at the counter welcomed me and allowed me some time to check out what they offer. She was very kind and pleasant when I informed her that it was my first time visiting. Even though there were a lot of people when I got there around lunchtime, there was somehow still plenty of seating. I opted to order a slice of their Dubai cake and an Iced Caramel Latte. The cake was divine. Every slice that I had was heavenly. My entire party of four was also served in a timely manner. I highly recommend Cafeneo, and I expect to be a returning customer. A great place to study because of their calm and steady ambiance. Plenty of windows and natural lighting. As I mentioned earlier, lots of seating, too. Very pleased.

When it was her turn the employee basically threw the order at my sister and SLAMMED THE WINDOW! and my sister asked to speak to the manger and he seemed like he didn't even care... on top of all that i called starbucks opened a case with them they were apologizing a lot actually and told me that the store district manger or the store manger would give me a call or my sister. when becky called she made it 10x worse she basically called my sister a liar and took her employees side. lied about the whole thing. this is insane. thank god that my sister took a video of the whole thing. if starbucks corporate doesn't handle this the way it should be handled then i'll be going to post the video on tiktok and instagram and let social media handle it and see how poorly this was handled.

Overall, I would go back (lots of things on the menu I would love to try) but there are some considerations that might make it lower on my list: --It's a tiny place, like 16 seats --If they're full, you will be uncomfortably close to other diners --The hash browns are something else entirely...it's like someone filled a sheet pan full of potato latke ingredients, pressed it and made it dense, cut it into 1x1x5 inch sticks, and then deep fried it to a burnt brown (wtf!). It tasted like a latke crossed with a hush puppy. Also be aware that it's walk-in only and you pay when you order (so you have no way to express your dissatisfaction with the so-called hash browns). It's street parking in a residential neighborhood but I luckily got a great spot. Obviously this review got a little snarky. So let me repeat that I was happy with my food and think the menu is great. I only deducted one star!
