"The coffee was hot and delicious! The banana loaf a great compliment to my entire order. "
"Well, guys, I could've had a better coffee from Am/Pm. At least I would've gotten everything I wanted. My $14.00 coffee was missing the caramel sauce, crunchy toppings, whipped cream, you know all the goodies when you crave a "good" coffee. I also asked for extra hot and priority so it wouldn't get cold. Ya, well, it came luke warm.Caramel Macchiato was just another semi-flavored coffee"

"Evening order disappointed. Both the chocolate covered creme filled did not have creme filling. The strawberry iced doughnut tasted fine except the icing was smeared on. Every doughnut was like this except for the 6 glazed, which were perfect. The quality was definitely lacking. And I was really disappointed that both the creme filled were empty. I learned it's better to order in the morning than the evening."

"#6 bbq pork sandwich was inedible fatty meat (what little meat was there) and barely any avocado for a $2.50 extra charge. Pork and Shrimp Spring Roll looked nice from the outside but was 90% shredded iceberg lettuce once you cut it open. Plus it only came with 2 and the menu said 3. Not worth the mony at all..."
"The #5 Grilled Pork Sandwich is usually great but today it barely had anything in it, and not just the meat, I wish I had taken a picture. The baguette was good but the sandwich was pretty much just bread. sandwich was a 1/10 today. I get this from other lee's and this locations like they throw it together without care. Probably won't order this from this location"
