I remember the first time I ever experienced 2nd Cup. It was at a mall in Barrie, Ontario - it was soooo good and I looked forward to going there every time I went to the mall. Baked goods always tasted fresh and there scent always drew me in. This 2nc Cup is nothing like that. The baked goods taste like they were made last week. The sandwiches are flavorless, have to bring your own salt and pepper and the dark roast coffee tastes burned.
This is the other PG café I have patronized when in town over the past 20 years as it is consistantly that good. Great location, friendly staff and the most conspicuous cafe community in town. A quality Canadian franchise.
