Since the credit card was maxed out for the weekend the options were limited to available groupons and gift certificates. We had really wanted to try the ricemilk french toast with ice cream last time so the Snack Bar it was. This is the last time we will visit the Snack Bar. We have been there 3-4 times and each time we have a different server and each time it is a bad experience. The server is always spacey and forgetful and not all that helpful. This time the server suggested the lavender scone and brought out a cranberry scone that may or may not have had lavender but if she said it had cranberries, it would have been a different story. Once again they don't ask about customization so out came french toast with ice cream on Italian bread.. with sesame seeds. Weird. Then even though we had originally ordered the crepes and the ice cream on the french toast, she could swear she heard we wanted ice cream on the scone? You may be wondering what is so bad about all these little things? Well first of all it is way too expensive to be having to deal with things we don't want, next it is increasingly annoying to get this kind of service consistently. Lastly, after watching the server dance outside for 10 minutes, forgetting drink refills, menu requests, etc. she promptly returned with the bill and said "I don't want to rush you but can you cash out now because I need to get to my next job?" yea it happens, but then she proceeded to wait to grab the receipt with the tip on it so she could leave. It just felt very rude and it seemed like if she would have dropped the receipt off before leaving to dance it would have taken the rush out of paying out. Overall, the end of the Snack Bar run. They have vegan food, some of it's good, but we won't be doling anymore cash out to them.
