At one time, this was little more than just a coffee shop, an old-school, kind of dusty one at that. But proving yet again that there is no such thing as “just a coffee shop” anymore, two baristas bought the place, changed the name, redid the interior and added a nice menu. The latter includes housemade sandwiches (like the "The Mayor," a melty combo of turkey, bacon, brie, fig jam and peanut butter), a handful of breakfast burritos and bagels from New York Bagel & Bialy). Edging more toward café than coffee shop, now we have a better excuse to spend more time here.
