    more than decent espresso drinks. sweet but mind-numbingly slow service that caters to a chatty international mommy brigade that has come to define carroll gardens.

    Good turkey sandwich indeed. The mayo can be a heaping portion--two occasions for me. So brace yourself to be full.

    This place is fine. Nothing to rave about. Weird crowd, staff are nice enough. Marble tables are always welcome. Good if you're on the go.

    This place has gone down pretty rapidly. Weekend staff has a hard time getting correct orders. Even getting decent coffee here is bad. It's too bad it used to be great.

    Apparently seersucker is owned by the same people and they'll let you use their restroom if need be (canteen doesn't have one).

    Ask them to cut your sandwich in half. They usually don't otherwise.
