The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf (Balboa Boutiques)

Anoche me detuve a tomar una cerveza y ver la pelea de box. Apenas a los 5 minutos llego la policía porque al gerente del lugar le pareció sospechosa mi presencia!!!!! Es increíble que todavía haya lugares que juzguen tan a la ligera. Es increíble el nivel de ignorancia y de prepotencia que tienen los encargados del lugar. Definitivamente no sólo no vuelvo a ir sino que me encargaré de que todos mis conocidos sepan mi mala experiencia!!!!

Es un excelente lugar para trabajar y relajarse, me gusta mucho el cafe, los postres y el quiche, muy buena conexion de internet para las personas que quieren ir a hacer un trabajo en un ambiente tranquilo y relax.

Es mi lugar favorito para reuniones de trabajo, o hacer trabajos de la universidad. Tiene una gran variedad de postres riquisimos, y muchas bebidas. Es un lugar muy comodo para trabajar, con mucha iluminacion y muchos enchufes.

I'd like know, since when do business tell customers they'll owe them their change? Why operate a business and not have enough change to give to customers when they pay cash? Why have everything priced at xx.99 (ending in 99 cents) when you havent (and probably wont have in the future) enough pennies (1-cent coins) to give out change?

No place where the managers are constantly hovering over their employees and always carry a 'pissed off' look on their face can be recommended. good: -The place itself is nice - great veiw of the coast and plenty of space to sit. -plenty of security outside if you park your car -clean! way way cleaner than the other big chain in town -drip coffee is way better than most places (im guessing they use a fresher and higher quality coffee -sugar and milk available for your drip coffee along with cups for water Bad: - loud at times when local kids come with parents who forget they're not at home and proceed to leave the place like a fast food place after a 3 year old birthday party - service can be slow nowadays - the old staff is rotated throughout their new locations and the new staff is understandably slow and still learning - Food is not good at all.... if you like kosher - then eat here (very few places serve kosher). But even the simple stuff like sandwiches and empanadas can be bland and leave weird tastes in your mouth. - Managers are the least service and costumer oriented (2 ladies always have a pissed off look on their face - no idea why. They may try smiling to anyone visiting the store. - Mornings and afternoons certain areas get direct sun and makes it uncomfortable to sit there, specially if you're using a computer and you need to see your screen - Music - they originally had decent mixes and they now repeat the same instrumental music all day or they dont play any at all. I think not playing any is sometimes better
