Reviews

One of the few places in the area to find a reasonably priced breakfast or lunch. Everything I've tried has been pretty good. It can get busy around noon, and wait times are inconsistent. The salad bar is a good option for a grab and go with a minimal wait.

I go here every week for breakfast and have never been let down. The Egg, Cheese and Sausage Croissant is my go to. If I am really hungry, I'll get the Super Burrito. The prices just can't be beat!

They were so friendly and the sandwich was a perfect sandwich. Nice quality, good balance of toppings, and fresh. Just a reliable meal and affordable
