    i came here to write my many hole in the wall updates. my fav brekkie is closing for seismic retrofit for a short period of a month. but what if it is more than a month......

    to the yelp reviewer that thought the women was being put on blast: here is a thought....hell to the yeah!!! of course she got ask to leave the premise for acting out by cussing and got denied service. all she simply had to do was said she didnt noticed there is a line for free water and anyone of us would of let her be in the front. it is a warm day for alot of us too. buy a bottle water or byob but check the attitude at the door.  mind you my bff and i were also in that line hot and sweaty so when we were thinking the thing as the cashier.  the big spender with colorfull vocab felt her uber expensive cold beverage she calls it (5 plus change btw)  entitled her to skip the line. her actions got her where she is. that is my sincere pov.

    i came upon your pov and felt it needed more subtitles.

    Witnessed the rudest employee today after a woman asked for water while waiting for her order. The woman was shamed. What is happening to human kindness, respect and decency.

    If someone asks for water don't be rude to them. Especially after they overpaid for your bad coffee. I was appalled. I won't ever support this business again.

    Rude.

    Affordable prices but was very underwhelmed by their iced coffee. It tastes burnt to its core and looks like it's been burnt too.

    I ordered a bagel with cream cheese and tomato, yet out came a bagel with cream cheese and cucumber, even though the white paper bag the sandwich came in clearly had "tomato" written on it.

    Lastly, the attitude of the person at the register is hot and cold, it can be off-putting.

    Would consider coming back for food items because the bagel was fine and the prices are cheap.... but will double check on the accuracy of my order and avoid black coffee.

    Cash only. They charge for extra cream cheese and by judging the bagel I ordered, anyone and everyone will be needing extra cream cheese. It was very disappointing opening up my bagel at home and seeing how scarcely they use their cream cheese. Unless you want to always pay for "extra" cream cheese.

    The Green Tea Latte was really good tho.

    This is the below average corner store of coffee shops. it seems like low quality ingredients and folger-like coffees. The staff do not help people well either. Not a wise choice.
