Made an online order on the mobile app. It located on a corner inside the Kentlands Market Square, so it was easy accessible from parking spaces on two sides of the building. My order was waiting on the Rapid Pickup shelves after the time of promise. The pecan braid was good as usual. The hot tea met expectations.

I ordered food in-house a few days ago right around lunch time. No line at the cash register to order. Several team members were attentive and ready. I ordered a large mac and cheese and a large tomato basil soup. I wanted the French onion but was told it was out of season (boo!). Is it because of the onion? The order was ready within 5 minutes at the pickup counter, I had everything to eat my order to go, and the mac and cheese tasted superb (although for $8 you don't get much). The soup was a good portion and I couldn't finish it all, so you might be better off getting the smaller size even if the large is only a little more money. All of the staff members I engaged with were hospitable, happy, and upbeat. It's great to see when employees are enjoying their jobs!

I love their blueberry muffin and their apple cinnamon muffin! Come as soon as they open if you want something hot and fresh. My coworker and I stopped in waiting for the near by party city to open and we were pleasantly surprised. There was no wait and the cashiers were great. We took a sit in a nice, quiet booth and got our grub on. She got the apple cinnamon muffin (so jealous) and I got the blueberry muffin. I also want to add their orange IS DELICIOUS! I usually just come for their salads but now this may be my go to for breakfast. The apple cinnamon muffin had actual slices of apple through out. It's the little things in life that please me. I love how their seating is set up. If you are "working from home" or studying for an exam this is a great place to come. They have free wifi and booths secluded away from the noise and traffic. It is much more quiet than say a noisy Starbucks.
