Specialty's Cafe & Bakery

I've been to this Specialty's before and I usually order the bacon, egg and cheese breakfast sandwiche. I never reall tried anything else on there menu. This time I tried the Turkey breast sandwich customized with bacon (of course). They were out of the herb bread (which I apparently cant read and ordered that anyway). So I was just going to get the sourdough, which I'm not a fan of generally. But then, then chef recommends the herb focaccia bread and I will say hell yes to that. Shout out to the guy who made my sandwich!!! The bread was so flaky and buttery after he toasted it. I will go back next time and order my sandwich the same way!

Place is good, ambiance is good as well. They've got lots of sitting space including some couches too. Coffee is ok, cookies are great. Staff is mostly friendly. Bakery items are not available in the evenings as they are sold out during the day. It's still better than Starbucks so if you're shuttling between the two, might as well give this a try. Hope this helps.

Visited once in the morning. Staffs were friendly. Took a croissant and a cup of tea. Worst one was getting to the bathroom. Once I was done with the food I felt like using the restroom. I followed the signs and as I exited the store from the back, I was in an alley and it was aqt a bit of a walk and turns to reach the restroom. When I reached I found that the door was coded. I didn't know that I had to get the code before head from the reception. I walked back and didn't bother to ask the code as I was in a rush and left the place. Suggestion: A note should be kept inside the bakery near the restroom sign to get the code from the reception first.

The ordering process was daunting at first, especially during a busy lunch hour, but they provide buzzers to let you know when your order is up. As long as you properly pair it at the end of your order, you won't have to listen for your order to be called or worry about it being confused with someone else. The food was good; Thai salad was a little bitter (cabbage based) but no complaints about the West African peanut soup - rich and warming. Also enjoyed their baked goods. A square of foccacia came with the soup and the salad. Also tried a carrot raisin bran muffin - deliciously moist but high in calories.
