All it take is time and somewhat hard times for some to acknowledge these kind of places really weren't offering stuff a lot better than the competition. Just charging more for the brand.
Well, that my take on it  even though I'm likely the lone ranger on these kind of businesses.  |
Now Mickey...
seriously now... Do I seem like a Yuppie to you?
Lots of reasonably normal people enjoy a cup of gourmet coffee!
And I'm not getting the inclusion of
Boston Market in with the coffee & breakfast pastry purveyors.
I remember I used to be quite happy when I was off on a field assignment stationed near a Boston Market. That's about the best "fast food" around that I can think of... at least for lunch or dinner.
