Everyone I encountered from the workers to the volunteers handling the training were so sweet! Yes it may take a minute to place your order at the register but to see the love and encouragement given as the volunteers train is worth every minute you stand in line.

Overall, this is a wonderful opportunity to provide job skills to those that may not have the chance, all while providing great food!
