Cornerstone Cafe - Calumet-Norvelt

Went in for a chicken sandwich as I had never been there before. The chicken was very dry and tasted like it was sitting for quite a while even though it was made to order supposedly. I got through about half before having to throw it away. 8 hours later I'm suffering from some extremely violent food poisoning. That was the only thing I'd eaten this day. None of the staff acted like they wanted to be there either. Will never go back.

Great value for money! Having spent 5 days in DC, we found this place on our last day. We had the pancakes, blueberry muffin, chocolate shake and a cappuccino all for less than $20! The pancakes were freshly made and delicious as was the shake. The restaurant itself was a little strange as it used to be a buffet style but now it has 2 counters at the back where they will make food and coffee fresh. Would recommend a visit.

Quiet as I ate alone among 80 chairs and many tables between breakfast and lunch. 10:45, 6/23/23

It’s one of those office cafes. The pictures make it seem like a standalone cafe. Good pictures but not as good in person. I got a burger and bottle of water. It was okay. My only complaint is that it is too hot if you’re eating in in the summer.

Went there for breakfast, I was on my phone while waiting for my turn in the line. The man at the grill ignored me the entire time apparently because I was on a phone call (they don’t have a no phone policy written anywhere). I called him multiple times to get his attention and ask if he can take my order, and even the lady with him completely ignored me. Then they started speaking in Spanish that I’m on the phone while trying to order, which is why I was being ignored. One of the worst experiences I’ve ever had, and I’m not a big complainer. Never going back there, and it’s unfortunate.
