My first time here and I used Too Good To Go and I got a muffin, and two crookies. The chocolate chip crookie was quite delicious. It was flaky and there is some chocolate on the inside, and a chocolate chips cookie on top of the croissant.The servers were quite nice and friendly. The environment was clean and comfortable. - Bradley C
