“The young lady that took my order was friendly.
For my 1st time being there, I didn't find any type of menu. I just drove in on a whim. I had no idea what I wanted. The promoter went way to fast. Are there paper menues? Or just dont go on whim? I got a iced salted Carmel something. It was pretty sweet, needed to cut back on the sugar because I couldn't taste the coffee. For my 1st time it was ok. It wont be my last.“
