Parakeet Cafe - Nautilus Reviews
Food great but kids running it and not paying attention-waited a long time for food then went to check and staff were having conversations and asked us if we had ordered food/finally got food but toast was cold and had to ask for knife-I’m usually not picky but they need an adult in charge.
Great food and fun with 2 Daughters and 1 Granddaughter.
The waffle was ambrosia. Just amazing. Still thinking about it. Great staff.
