Store doesn't seem to adhere to its own opening timings. Have encountered occasions where the store front is not ready to receive orders at their listed opening times and the lights are not even on. Perhaps a revision in their listed opening time is in order:).

their new coffee chicken is ridiculous. they cook with cereal chicken and just use coffee sauce to pour on the chicken. not actually cooked with coffee at all. portion is also very little compared to the xxl chicken and is $0.40 more expensive than it.
