The Worst Breakfast Experience We've Ever Had…read more
My husband and I recently visited this café for breakfast. We were both very hungry and excited to try a new place. Unfortunately, what was supposed to be a lovely morning together turned into one of the worst dining experiences we've ever had.
At first, everything seemed fine. However, we soon realized that the wait to place our order was extremely long. We also watched several other customers waiting for a long time to receive their food, with no progress in sight.
We eventually placed our order and double-checked everything, but the staff was unfriendly and unwelcoming. There were only two employees working, and honestly, I think the café needs more staff and a better-organized kitchen.
I ordered an avocado toast, but when it arrived, it was missing the tomatoes and eggs that I had specifically paid for. On top of that, the bread was so stale and hard that it was almost impossible to bite into.
When I went back to ask for the missing ingredients, nobody even apologized. They simply threw some roughly chopped eggs on top without any care or presentation. It looked nothing like the beautiful dish advertised in the menu photos.
And that wasn't even the end of it.
I also ordered a salad that looked beautiful in the menu photos, with everything nicely arranged on a plate. After waiting another five minutes, I realized that nobody remembered my order. When I finally asked about it, once again, there was no apology. They simply took the salad out of the refrigerator and handed it to me in a plastic container, exactly as it would come from a grocery store. Nobody even bothered to put it on a plate.
The salad was freezing cold and completely unappetizing. This is absolutely not how food should be served in a café.
The atmosphere was another disappointment. The entire place smelled strongly of burnt food and coffee beans, all mixed together. It was so unpleasant that we couldn't even enjoy sitting inside and had to move outside.
They have a little treehouse area where guests can sit privately. Since we were just the two of us and it happened to be available, we decided to sit there. At first, everything seemed fine, until we noticed a terribly torn leather couch. It was impossible to miss, and it completely ruined what could have been a beautiful, aesthetic morning. They could have at least covered it or repaired it. There were also visible food and coffee stains on the floor that clearly needed to be cleaned.
Overall, I have never experienced such terrible service, such disappointing food, or such bad coffee anywhere before. The coffee itself was practically undrinkable.
Imagine starting your morning with your husband, hoping to enjoy a nice breakfast together, almost like a little date, and ending up leaving hungry, disappointed, and frustrated.
I honestly cannot recommend this café to anyone.
Whether they need to hire more staff, improve their food preparation, train their employees, or simply pay more attention to the condition of their business, something needs to change.
This was an absolutely awful experience, and if I could give this place zero stars, I would. Not even one star.
P.s. I actually made it look nice in the photo. In reality, it looked much worse because I added some effects for my Instagram. Also, the eggs you see in the photo were actually arranged by my husband. He doesn't work there, and he shouldn't have had to do that. I simply wanted an aesthetically pleasing photo, but I ended up having to arrange everything myself.
