    We had never heard of the Switchboard Coffee Shop and Restaurant. The food was excellent and for a price fix dinner, it was surprising. We will go for brunch soon.

    Restaurant failed to honor our reservation. We showed up on time but all tables were full and they said it would be a 30 minute wait. We went elsewhere.

    I want to assume that service was thin - food was forgotten.

    The reservation system worked well and when I called the day of to adjust the time, I was readily accommodated. The server knew that it was a Birthday celebration and offered wishes along with the complimentary dessert. Our server, Rebecca was friendly and knowledgeable about the menu items. The historic aspect of the place was interesting and the decor created retro ambiance with comfortable seating options. I also enjoyed the barista coffee selections. Having a coffee roaster on site is a plus. Many thanks to Rebecca!
