    Cute ambiance with artful interior. A dumbwaiter is used to transport the food to the upper level (which has ample seating)... I love that touch :). Great baked goods and lattes! Delicious wraps.

    Great place to work (the upstairs is nice and quiet). The roast beef sandwich is a monster, and a steal for $10. It's massive. If you're looking for a healthier option, try the smoked salmon salad.

    When I visited the hot roast beef sandwich was on the specials list, and it was one of the best sandwiches I've ever had! Also the fig bars were insanely good.

    This spot is conveniently located near the 36th Street express stop and is perfect for coffee, overstuffed sandwiches, and even vegan cakes, cookies and pastries. And everything is solidly delicious.

    Pastries are delicious & you don't have to carry your coffee or plate upstairs they have a sweet little food elevator to transfer it to you.

    Latte and bagel with cream cheese and lox were mediocre at best. Very nice area upstairs to do work plus free wifi.

    Adorable little coffee shop with tiny dumbwaiters that carry your drinks and treats to the 2nd floor. Very charming place with friendly staff.

    Bread looks pro and so do pastries, but coffee needs a lot of work. This is the age of intelligentsia, counter culture, pt rosters, blue bottle... Get the employees trained in brewing !

    Fantastic sandwiches, but if you go for lunch during the week the wait can get kinda long.

    Great Pastries and Sandwiches! Their iced cappuccinos are especially good. And friendly and helpful workers just to top it off!

    Baked good and bread are lackluster. Ambiance is quite nice. Didn't eat the sandwiches.
