Thu 8/8: Paradise Bakery (Pebble Creek Pkwy & McDowell)

I’ll just start by saying I don’t get the hype about this place. I enjoy getting muffins and iced tea from there when I’m at the airport, but that’s about the extent of it.

For this visit, it was lunchtime and the line was very long. It took several minutes before someone was able to take our sandwich order. I got the Paradise Club with no lettuce, tomato, or Dijon-mayo. I find this place confusing because some people are just getting baked goods, some are ordering sandwiches, some are waiting for salads, and I don’t think people realize they can cut ahead and skip to the register. But after paying, we sat down and waited to be called so we could take it to go.

Quite some time passed and my friend went to check on our order. The bag had been sitting back there ready but never made it on to the final station… Lovely. My croissant sandwich looked squished. When we got back to work, my friend realized they gave him the wrong sandwich.

Mine tasted fine and all, and the chocolate chip cookie was good, but certainly not worth 8 bucks. I’ll probably stick with their baked goods in the future, if I can help it.
