    If I could give this place zero stars, I would. As long as I have lived, I have never been to a restaurant with such a rude and dismissive manager. It is rare for me to make a review unless the service is absolutely phenomenal or the service/food is just that bad to the point I feel people need a heads up. Upon entering this establishment around 11a they weren't overly busy. We were warmly greeted by a couple of young ladies and quickly set outside per my request, as I had my dog. I care for a lady who has dementia, is 85, and one of the many things we do is try new restaurants. Today we drove about an hour from where we live. I ordered my lady a very berry waffle. Per the menu it says strawberries and blueberries, however I asked for bananas instead of the blueberries. Then I proceed to order the Iron Man Scrambler for myself. I try to intentionally eat healthy so I normally make substitutions at all the restaurants I eat at, and it is rare that I get any pushback. This is how is says it comes on the menu: Egg whites, baby spinach, tomatoes, onions, and mushrooms. Served with your choice of fresh fruit or sliced avocados and your choice of toast. I asked to substitute the tomatoes for fresh jalapenos and the mushrooms for bell peppers. I chose the sliced avocados. As you see, it's supposed to come with your choice of toast. I chose gluten free toast. I originally asked if I could do a side of their gluten-free oatmeal i stead of the toast and was told they couldn't do that and so I opted not to go that route as I didn't want to pay the full price of a bowl. Several minutes later, she came back out and reconfirmed my order. Upon getting our food, my lady's order was right. The waitress gave me somebody else's meal before catching her mistake, took it back, and brought mine out. I couldn't believe the minimal portion size for the price. I wouldn't say there was anything bad about our food. My lady's waffles seemed to have been a little overdone. Normally she eats it all. Today she didn't, which says a little something about the waffle as those are her favorite. This is where it all went south! I received my ticket and was charged almost $2/ea. for the substitution of jalapeno and bell peppers, even though it was an even ingredient swap, and I do this everywhere I go if I'm out for breakfast at noon charge. I would have understood if it was for extra avocado or something. Then then I was charged $3.25 for the toast that is supposed to come with the meal. I mentioned it to the waitress, and she said, "Oh, I'm sorry, we can't make substitutions without charging." I then said, "Well you should have mentioned this up front." She apologized again and I proceeded and said, "And I thought the toast came with the meal." She just kind of had this look on her face, so I said, "I need to speak to the manager, this is unacceptable." When the manager comes out, an asian lady, she gets freaked out by my dog and says, I need to come inside if I wanna talk to her. So I go inside, she says, "How can I help you?" I proceed to tell her that I go to 1 or 2 restaurants a day making substitutions to menus and have never been charged for basic ingredients. She very dismissedly said, "We don't do that." I then proceed to tell her that I was also charged for the toast which was supposed to come with the meal and again very dissmissedly with more rudeness she says, "That's our charge." I told her, she was not very good at listening to the concerns of her customers, I would never be back, and that I was going to make an unfavorable review, to which her response was, "Okay, that's fine!!! Never, even an I'm sorry, which I'm glad she didn't say that, because a lot of people say it and don't mean it. I guess that's the one thing I can give her; she was honest. Greedy, rude, expensive and the WORST customer service by a restaurant manager I have ever experienced. And how unfortunate for her employees that have to work under her. They definitely need to be trained better. I don't fault my waitress, because she was fairly new & fairly young. However, I did speak to her and tell her that in life, you need to stand up for what's right, that I wasn't faulting her, and that I hope this was a learning lesson that she tells her customers that they're going to be charged extra for things in advance.

    Now this is a breakfast

    Decided to stop In and grab breakfast before church. To my surprise this place is fire. The service was amazing. Entire staff from front to back of house. Everyone I interacted with was friendly and smiling. The food came out fast and was more than I could have expected. Eggs fluffy, flavor in the gravy. Awesome homemade hot sauce. Everything about this place was on point entire experience was perfect.

    Sad avacado on overcooked eggs for my Skillet
    Ralph B.

    I Really like that this is not a chain restaurant. It seems like chains dominate breakfast. The restaurant is quite small and has a nice feel about it. Also seems like all of the servers are high school kids, or perhaps early college, and they are trying so very hard to please, which I respect. Service was fast. For the price, however, I thought the food was just average. My wife had the Parisian, which is two slices of French toast, two eggs any style, two strips of bacon or two sausage patties. Nothing special here, and the Ewing' toast looked kind of like something from the freezer case at Kroger. I had the Sante Fe Skillet, which is chorizo sausage, jalapeño peppers, onions, tomatoes and topped with fresh avocado. One of the smaller skillet meals I have had, and not really in a skillet at all. The eggs were a bit overdone and as you can see the "topped with fresh avocado" was very very sad. I just can't recommend it. Perhaps the chains are the way to go.

    Our server was so nice and friendly. She handled my father in laws sarcasm and gave it right back to him! I wish I could remember her name, but she was awesome! My pancakes were soo delicious. If you have a sweet tooth, I highly recommend. It is a cute little breakfast place.

    Turkey & Avocado Wrap w/Okra

    We have been coming here for years - not sure what has changed (ownership? Manager?) but it's been a steady decline. What might be considered typical substitutions on plates (i.e. jalapeños instead of green peppers or toast instead of tortillas) are all up-charged separately. Additionally, the attached photo was my turkey and avocado wrap with okra for $12. Tasted okay, but pretty sad looking plate. Things are going to have to change otherwise there are way too many other brunch places in the area to choose from.

I stopped by this afternoon and ordered several food items, a coffee, and one of their amazing candles. At the drive-thru, they handed me my food and let me know they'd bring the candle out separately. When I got home, I realized they had accidentally given me two candles, one was tucked inside my food bag and another had been brought out separately. I called to let them know because I wanted to pay for the extra candle (I absolutely love their candles and wanted to keep it!). The sweet lady I spoke with on the phone was incredibly kind and told me not to worry about it, they wanted me to enjoy the second candle on them. That level of customer service is so rare these days. Everyone was friendly, appreciative, and genuinely cared about making the experience a great one. Between the delicious food, fantastic coffee, and outstanding customer service, Marty B's continues to be one of my favorite places. And if you haven't tried their candles yet, you're missing out! I picked up their new Cherry Almond Buttercream scent, and it smells absolutely incredible. Highly recommend!

I also liked the setup of the area with Marty's To-Go and Marty's Ice Cream right next door, it makes it feel like there's a lot going on around you. The coffee shop itself also has a bar, food options, and plenty of outdoor seating. The outdoor space with the fireplace looked so cozy, and I can already imagine how nice it would be there in winter with hot chocolate. I was already full, so I only stopped in for coffee this time, but definitely want to come back and try more. I got the iced lavender oat latte and really liked it. It was creamy, not too sweet, and the lavender flavor was subtle but still came through nicely. Really balanced and easy to drink. I also tried an off-menu salted caramel mocha, and that one was a miss for me. It was way too sweet, didn't really taste like salted caramel mocha, and wasn't creamy at all. It honestly gave me a headache after. Overall, 5 stars for the space, 3 for the lavender oat latte, and 0 for the salted caramel mocha.

Hubby got the traditional breakfast-chicken apple sausage, sourdough toast and hash browns and scrambled eggs with cheese. I ordered the chicken fried chicken with the gravy on the side. I rather dip the chicken in the gravy verse having it poured on top. My chicken fried chicken came with grits and sourdough toast. The chicken was so good and flavorful. I loved the grits.

I loved the circle lights above the booths. Unfortunately, they were dusty and I kept waiting for it to drop in our food. (Not what I want to be focusing on while eating). Very large menu with lots of great choices for breakfast, lunch, brunch. Cocktails, mocktails, fresh juice also available. I got the CHICKEN BACON RANCH PANINI - it was really good but messy. Arrived sloppy dripping in ranch. I ended up having for fork & knife it. Good bacon, grilled chicken, slices of avocado. Would get ranch on side next time - It tastes like the typical restaurant supply big bucket of blah ranch. They need a house made ranch. The fried okra was really good! MONTE CRISTO - on a croissant. Completely soggy and unable to eat as a sandwich. Strawberry jam on it was a nice different touch. Had to eat with fork & knife. Not one of the better ones in the area. Fries were really good though. We will go back sometime and try breakfast.

We arrived around 10:30 am, which I realize is not exactly crack-of-dawn bagel time when everyone is grabbing their carb-loaded fuel before work. As an ex-New Yorker, I have my favorite bagel flavors, but my number one priority is simple: is it warm? Sadly, I was told there were no warm bagels, so I settled for a poppy bagel with the new lemon cream cheese. The cream cheese was fantastic. No notes. Seriously, it was great. The bagel itself was fine. My bigger issue was the service and the missed opportunity. The place was not crowded at all, maybe seven people inside. After we sat down waiting for our order, I noticed a guy in the back literally baking bagels and moving fresh, hot bagels into bins. HOT BAGELS, people. Would it have killed someone to walk 30 feet and offer me one fresh off the line? I had already mentioned it was my first time there and how much I love a warm bagel. I totally understand they cannot do this for every single customer all day long, but when it is quiet and someone is clearly excited about your product, that little extra effort can make a huge difference in customer retention. I worked in customer service my entire life, and I always believed in going the extra mile when you can - "accomodating when you can be" is a great customer service motto! I really wanted to love this place, and I appreciate what they are doing, but at this point my bagel loyalty may be heading toward PopUp Bagels. (And I have love for Dan's too.)
