People open businesses here in locations they have not thoroughly researched. <br />Employees do not want to follow the formula (recipes) etc. Even if service is bad, the food should taste the same at a chain. The vibe was cool there and always packed. However, on my last visit, they were super understaffed. Snooze is good but First Watch is better. I prefer fresh juice over alcohol for breakfast.

The people that apply to work front-line jobs have attitudes, hate the idea of serving (especially a predominantly white) clientele, and are entitled. This leads to a whole lot of problems for the business that just do not happen in Asheville and probably won't happen in Gainesville.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-59515807639294939922023-05-30T10:56:18.659-04:002023-05-30T10:56:18.659-04:00The shopping center is great, IMO.

Buttermilk Kitchen, for instance, may have, “high,” prices & bad parking, but it’s so good that people keep going back. Once a place like that opens in Gateway, they’ll thrive.
