    Great coffee but the sandwiches are way overpriced for something I could make at home. The back seating area is super cute and great for working. Also, locally run!

    Quick made to order breakfasts. Never had to wait anything longer than 10 minutes. Usually in and out in under 8.

    The food is great here. Seriously awesome. But it takes about 48 years for them to make the food. Keep that in mind.

    It may not be NYC finest but the garden smoked salmon sandwich taste like it came from midtown Manhattan by the way of DC. It's a great sandwich

    The smell of heavy food is quite pungent. I'm honestly worried that a 10 minute stay will have me taking the order with me. But a triple espresso is $2.05

    Really nice people. Sometimes it gets packed in the morning but the breakfast BLT is worth the wait!
