96/351: Sunnyside Cafe, Ashland, MA: HUGE piece of advice, if you offer full waitress service, do NOT make your customers pay at the register. I want to enjoy the last of my coffee as I'm waiting for my change. Last thing I want to do is stand in line at the register. Guess where I'm headed once I pay? Out the door. Not returning a tip to the table & I'm not dropping my tip into a "community jar" on the counter. My waitress got Zero tip because of this ridiculous process.

Now, the food: This place had some potential, with some good ingredients, eg: red bliss potatoes, nice cut of ham & broccoli on their eggs bene. Unfortunately the preparation was terrible. The homefries were room temp or worse, there were a few pieces that were actually Cold!! How does that happen? The broccoli was obviously the frozen variety :-( and the Hollandaise sauce was so bland, could barely even notice there was any over the eggs bene.

This place needs to ditch the stupid check out process & find a chef/cook that can work well with those decent ingredients.

"Nay!"
