Accueil très chaleureux. J'ai pris un chocolat chaud à emporter. Une fois dans ma voiture, je le goutte & m'aperçois qu'on ne sent pas du tout le chocolat. Ma bouche & ma gorge brûlent à cause de la cannelle ! Moi qui est des problèmes de ventre je pense atténuer mes brûlures avec du lait d'amande chocolaté & non ça brule encore plus. Payer près de 6$ pour rien ça me déçoit. La personne m'a demandé si je voulais de la cannelle sur le dessus j'ai dit non, je sais qu'elle n'en a pas mis, mais le mélange préfabriqué a gout de cannelle & on est pas prévenu. Je n'ai jamais vu ça. 2 étoiles car j'ai vu que la dame était gentille mais pas plis car j'ai eu la mauvaise expérience d'avoir gaspillé mon argent & d'avoir encore plus de brûlure en bouche & la gorge.

Food is a bit overpriced in my opinion for the amount that you get, but it is good quality & tasty! :)
I was especially blown away by the mocha coffee I got! Definitely, in my top 3 best mochas I've gotten in my life. So if you're looking for a sweet tasting coffee drink, definitely give it a try!
