- Oh Lawdy Nothing Sweeter Than A Triumph BobberCould the men of Hinckley have ever imagined what people would do with their machines?

My first AND LAST experience at Morning Glory! I walk into this beautiful establishment to find myself about to be astonished. I walked up to the counter and was ignored by three people behind the counter. I ask for a cannoli and was once again overlooked. Finally I gain the attention of one girl. She seemed almost intoxicated with her speech and responses. I asked her if she had iced coffee, she rolled her eyes and said “well…yeah…no!” and walks away! I was stunned! I asked another employee for the cannoli and after much time he got it. I didn’t get any coffee because none of the employees wanted to help. On my way out, I met the worst employee of all, a short dark haired women yelling and screaming. She screamed like she was about to have a myocardial infarction. She yelled and kicked and screamed like a baby. She looked to be the manager no less! I quickly ran to my car and drove to the police station. I was very excited about having a new coffee shop in the Hill and was counting the days down. What a disappointment! I have never felt so unwelcome in my life! If you want coffee, go to Starbucks (at least they are friendly and have more that one coffee choice). If you want a cannoli, go to Bommarito’s. If you want real pastries, go to Josef’s. If you want to feel undesirable, unwelcome, disgusted and, disappointed, go to Morning Glory.
