Norma's Corner Shoppe

I went twice in a row bc I was so excited to try their biscuits but they didn't have any one the first day I went, and I was pretty disappointed by both breakfast sandwiches I got. The bacon in the New Yorker was incredibly burnt that it wasn't really edible, so I ended up crumbling the bits away. And there was way too much cheese in proportion to the rest of the ingredients. The bagel however was a pretty decent bagel. The Southerner was somehow really bland and salty at the same time. The biscuit, while good and crispy, was super salty, which was weird bc the the sausage gravy was the most blandest gravy I've ever eaten. Eating it all together gave weird bursts of salt.

Pickup is supposed to be quick and not negatively affect other customers waiting on line. If you are going to do pickup you can't just skip the line and then add a bunch of stuff to your pickup order. You should wait inline. I feel like the staff should enforce this if its busy. It is not fun waiting in line for 15 minutes just to have someone pick up and then add an entire order to their pick up order.

I got the ranchero breakfast sandwich on a biscuit and it was SO delicious, just really messy. I wouldn’t dare eat it in front of anybody lol but I would definitely purchase again. Iced coffee was really good too.
