Solid service, but the food could use work.

Fountain and Ink serves up a decent mix of food and care, but sometimes it feels like they’re leaning a bit too hard on the ‘just okay’ side of life. Sure, there’s a double smash burger here that has earned rave reviews, but not every dish hits the mark—like the Sunday roast that left some diners thinking they should've just stayed home. The staff, especially Valicious and Molly, shine bright in emergencies, proving that service can make or break a meal.

The vibe is chill and inviting, making it a nice stop for a bite, but when you leave feeling both satisfied and slightly underwhelmed, you know something’s amiss. If you’re in the area, it’s worth a look, just don’t expect anything life-changing.
