Last week, I tried their chicken burrito and chicken schnitzel roll, and both were incredibly tasty and freshly made. The food was served hot, which made it even better! The staff were extremely friendly, and the coffee is amazingly good as well, making it a fantastic spot for a quick and satisfying lunch.
