The Brunchery

I went to the Brunchery. I have never been there before but heard they were great an

d also have great breakfasts. A young girl asked me what I wanted to drink and brought it to me then proceeded to clean tables so I assumed she was just a bus girl. No one ever came to take me order. When the girl was cleaning the table next to me I asked her if someone could take my order because I was on my lunch break. She went into the kitchen area and it took a while for someone to come to my table. When the next woman came to my table to take my order, I asked her what kind of soup they had. She told me and I commented that I didn’t see where you could get soup and half a sandwich. She said she could do that for me. There was one sandwich I wanted to try but she said she couldn’t do it with that sandwich and told me the sandwiches she could do it with. I chose chicken salad but couldn’t get that because it had walnuts in there and I’m allergic to walnuts. So I told her I would take the soup and the sandwich I originally wanted but would take half of it to go and that would be my lunch tomorrow. A third person brought my sandwich out to me. I commented that my soup was forgotten. She looked at the ticket puzzled and went back into the kitchen. When she came out, she brought a cup of soup to someone else then came and told me that the other waitress didn’t think I wanted the soup because I got the sandwich and that they were all out of soup. I looked at her and looked at the other customer who apparently got the last cup of soup and back at her, shook my head and said very annoyed “REALLY”!, SERIOUSLY?” So, I ate my sandwich and potato salad. Another completely different person brought me my check. Then a completely different person asked me if I wanted a refill on my drink. I asked for it in a to go cup. I went to the register to pay which took a while for the first young girl to come up there and cash me out. I do not like not tipping servers at all but I didn’t have just one server so I didn’t even know who I was tipping. So I stiffed them. Normally, if I have one server and get lousy service, I will leave a penny tip. This will get the server thinking about their terrible service and hopefully make them think twice. Stiffing a server only makes them think that you’re greedy, stingy and/or rude. I was so upset that I forgot my to go drink.
