I finally had to ask someone where our waitress was. She finally shows up. Takes our order. Brings drinks. Had to ask for straws. Didn't come back with refills. Had to ask. Showed up with meal. Had to ask twice for ketchup. Green beans didn't come with meal. Had to wait for those. Waitress was busy talking to table next to us. Then she goes behind counter and starts talking to 2 men. I waved my hands at her to get her attention and she rolled her eyes at me! So much so the 2 guys turned around and looked at me. I asked her why she was so angry. She of course denied it. I needed 2 drinks to go, pie to go, box and the check. She was horrid. Super bad attitude. And the place was only about half full so not that busy. The food is good but we've noticed a drop in service. I shouldn't have to track down the waitress and have her get an attitude when we need things. We still gave her a tip but she really deserved none. Makes me reconsider not going back. We eat out a lot and her demeanor for a server was inexcusable. Find a new line of work.

Looking forward to trying next time I am on the go.

This is a well lit, big windows, open spaces vibe coffee house. The noise level wasn't loud or close to it. There is a bar, coffee and tea, and sandwiches. I ordered an Everything began and Garden Vegetable Cream cheese bagel with added lettuce. There wasn't a line so I decided to take it up a notch. I was shocked with about 5 different cream cheeses to choose from. Check out the lights, windows, and the high ceiling look. I was wanting to chill solo today so I went to the back room. This is where I took the pics. They support small artists and businesses; fun to see what will be displayed in this back room. There is a coffee roaster here too! Marais des Cygnes has cool merchandise to sell besides beans. Clean restrooms and the tables/chairs are well maintained. Back room can be reserved as well. Great for solo, catching up with small groups, or possibly cramming for exams. Not like cozy fall asleep comfy but open well lit feeling. Parking on Main St but better to park on the side (courthouse side). 2 entrances. Another plus is the cashier didn't try to push for a tip (kinda makes me feel uncomfortable when a place asks). Instead I found the nice old fashioned tip jar. Downside: food can take a really long time to arrive (that was my past experience here but that was 8 mo. ago). Today's experience was 10/10 perfect.

The pickles were good, the onion rings were even better. Then I had a cold italian pasta salad that was probably the best I have ever had. The fresh baked cheddar roll went with it nicely. My main dish was a pork chop and a twice baked potato. The chop was HUGE and has a nice glaze on it. The twice baked potato was ok. Finally for dessert I had Kansas Dirt. The oreo crunch was pleasant and the dish was RICH. I hope to go back one day. The price was VERY reasonable for the amount of food.
