Grind Cafe - Morganton

Visited loop cafe for a quick bite and coffee, I always drive out of my comfort zone and decided to try the Tinga Tacos. I have to mention that tacos are in my DNA, the taste was ok, but the biggest mistake was to use the tortilla cold and the ingredients hot, a big no-no for tacos. Turkey sandwich was better, also improved service requirements, prices are high for the food and services provided.

I came in today to have brunch. My friends got a ham and cheese bag that was great. The server never brought my quiche to the table. I had to ask for it? You forgot. A server came and asked if I wanted my toast that was never made available. The hot chocolate and toast were cold. I doubt I'll come back.

Food is good, staff is friendly, and facilities are nice, but the owner / manager (apparently) decided to visit the production at noon on Saturday and basically closed while he pontificated. Cook and waitress were totally distracted to hear him. Wait 45 minutes to get a meal? and only after they finish their order. Before leaving, he sets up a step ladder to turn the ceiling fans up. It was then raining dust buns for 10 minutes. It is probably a beautiful place if they can stop from unstructured personnel sessions while the customers are waiting? and maybe the overhead ceiling fans are dusting regularly.

Your favorite hometown coffee grinds and breakfast place? I really enjoyed the fact that the vibe property is completely involved here a few times?

First time going. Was greeted more like an inconvenience than niceness. Maybe they she was getting stressed out of how busy they are back to back. There was an old man there seemed to be familiar with the staff taking up room not eating(when I saw him) but scopping out who he could talk to next. Not in a creeper way but more like he wanted someone to care about what he had to talk about.Luckily he left me alone. The seating inside isn't a lot which is expected in an older building. There's seating outside as long as it's not obviously raining. I got the French toast. It was good. Whomever brought it out to me seemed nice and smiled. The one who took my order wasn't so friendly. Wanted to try local. Won't be back, but I suggest you at least give it a try and see for yourself if you've ever wanted to. I just didn't like the initial start of it all. For being in North Carolina there wasn't a warm welcoming from the start considering the food isn't on the cheap side. At least she didn't fake it so I give her a star for being honest.
