Dog Lane Cafe - Storrs

A little pricy for a college area restaurant. It was strange you had to order, pay and tip before they even would bring the food to you. That being said, the chili was good, chicken salad pretty good. Didn't like the chips.

Confusing seating/tabling for neophytes, but the food is great I love their Ginger Lemonade

Food is really good but you don't really get a lot for the price. They give you chips for a side but something more substantial would be nice. I do love the service. Everyone is very nice. The mood is cool. It's a little cluttered when you walk in. A better traffic flow would be cool. But other than that, all good. Just maybe lower the prices or add a substantial side.

Went for lunch and enjoyed the place very much. Well presented dishes with good portions. Service is good, not crazy but good. Fresh flavors and real eggs with omelettes. Will Go Back.

We dine at Dog Lane nearly every week. But this week was most likely out last. The service gets worse with each visit. This morning we ordered a toasted bagel and some toast- an order that shouldn 't have stretched the capabilities of the staff. But after waiting 15 minutes (of which we watched the bagel sit at the top of the toaster for 10 minutes) we went to the front counter to complain. So the bagel came right out, but of course was cold. But no toast, so the staff had to look into it . Really? As if putting two slices of bread into a toaster required investigation. So the toast came out two minutes later- but the latte we ordered was still MIA. That showed up a couple of minutes later If the staff had acknowledge that they messed up it might have been some consolation, but no, maybe we should just feel lucky that they served us at all. Likewise if the place had been full we 'd cut them some slack, but the dining area was only about 25% occupied. Two weeks ago my daughter stopped in and ordered two smoothies to go, again with a dining room that wasn 't very full. Her wait time? 30 minutes. If she hadn 't paid for them up front she would have walked out. I rarely write negative reviews, and understand that any business and their staff can have a bad day. But the trend here is obvious and it isn 't good. We 'll go someplace else where hopefully our business is appreciated.
