Taste Ghent - Norfolk

Love the sandwiches and wraps. Got the crab salad wrap today, and it was bomb. I like that they have treats and drinks to shop and look at while you’re waiting. Lots of premade desserts, salads, dips, local beers. Not to mention the soda machine is great ha. You can always expect quality stuff.Vegetarian options: A few different vegetarian sandwiches to choose from. And you can build your own as well.Parking: Lots of spaces, they just redid the parking lot

I generally like their food because it's different than what you can find elsewhere, but today I spent $18 on a salad and off-brand soda with no ice (the machine was out). They ask for a tip when they ring you up despite not actually waiting on you. And I was very surprised that they don't offer recycling bins. All our plastic cups, cutlery, etc., went in the trash. There was also no parking, apparently due to re-paving. We had to park in another venue's lot and cross our fingers that we wouldn't get towed. Just not impressive for the cost.

They're lucky that people come there to buy their products. They certainly don't come there for customer service. The girl at the register barely acknowledged my presence. She rang up my order and promptly left the counter. I had my own, therefore I was left to bag my own items, extremely rude.Food: 5/5

I used to believe that Taste was this great lunch alternative, but not so much now. The last couple of times, the bread has been cut on weird angles or both times they were at the end of the loaf, but I had mostly hard crust that's hard to bite into. The bigger issue is their trendy named dressing that was just bland tasting when you have avacados on the sandwich you better have something with pop or a flavor rush, instead you have this bland, wet mush. Maybe it's just my sandwich choice, not sure, but not impressed lately... Sorry.

The food is consistently of good quality and the service is generally, though not always, fairly quick. That said, we did spend 7 minutes waiting behind one customer taste testing soups before someone could take our order. It was a little frustrating, but generally the exception.Food: 4/5
