I ordered online their signature McAlister's Club with a side of Miss Vickie's chips (included). Thanks to the promotion, I only paid for the Famous Tea. The sandwich was pretty standard, but the honey mustard added the perfect sweet and tangy kick. The portion looked small, but it was surprisingly filling. My only disappointment is that they forgot the pickle. The Famous Tea was the highlight! Fresh brewed, refreshing, I'm obsessed!! I stopped by around lunchtime on a Tuesday, and the place was bustling. The ambiance reminded me of Panera, except the food was actually good. Despite the lunch rush, the takeout service was incredibly fast. I was in and out in less than five minutes, and the staff were very friendly. A great first visit, and I'll definitely be back!

I'll definitely back for their Giant Potatoes. Their booths are very comfy and I liked watching TV while I ate. They also have free refills for their drinks when you dine in.

Many times I peruse an area looking for food spots and find…read morenew places and other times I look at an area dozens of times and google seems to hide some good spots from view. The Cracked Pepper Cafe is one where googled failed miserably. Established for many years, close to home, and a highly rated sandwich shop which has been hidden from my google view for years. Tsk. Tsk. I spotted the place due to a sidewalk sign once I was in an office park on another errand. Lo and behold, a promising sandwhich menu, a breakfast menu and a cozy little place with indoor and outdoor seating. Good vibes, a nice lakefront ambiance and New York flair. Plenty of parking, a short walk to the backside of the office building which are a few long one story structures if memory serves. I ordered to go, the Gabagool, an italian sammie and a Cuban with lettuce and tomato to try their wares. I also ordered an omelet, the Tombstone, for the wife. Now, for me, when an italian has mortadella and capicola (gabagool) in it, you are my kinda soulmate. All the right stuff and packed skyscraper high. All the fixins that come with it do not fit in the "sandwheech". Spoon them into your mouth as you eat or save for after. I was suspicious of the dressing because instead of italian it was roasted red pepper sauce, I got it on the side just in case. Loved the Gabagool, excellent flavor profile, meaty and a nice blend of textures. The sauce had me on the fence at first but found myself more attracted to it as I ate. The cuban for me was nothing special, the same issue I encounter most places. I prefer sliced pork to pork chunks. Pork chunks ruins the balance of ingredients for me, I feel like I am eating a pork sandwich dressed like a cuban. That's my take on it and there are thousands who would disagree. I just grew up with cuban sandwich perfection (hand sliced meats off a ham leg and pork leg) throughout my childhood. The omelet was excellent. It's now the wife's favorite place to get "Stuffed Eggs" as they call it. This place will be added to the rotation, likely twice a month at least. The one disappointment is I can not convince them to add Vickie's Jalapeño Chips. The carry the Vickies brand but not the top selling flavor, by far, I looked it up. Not sure what the issue is but my sandwiches are consumed sans chips. I guess that is their perogative. Ergo, I go chipless. But don't let that stop you, the food here is great! Come get ya some!
