Ordered through doordash for lunch cause I was feeling lazy. Got the Italian and it was great, as were the homemade bbq chips it came with. It held up well on the delivery trip too. Where I grew up in Boston a specific style of Italian sub was fairly popular and it's hard to get a good one out here, and this one reminded me of them and really hit the spot so I'm glad I found this place. I'm curious to try the pastrami and some of the other sandwiches next.
They only have four kinds of drinks, good coffee, good cold brew, but you cannot expect more than that. The place is clean and nice. I took out 2 stars because they closed the door connect to the library (maybe to limit students sitting here) and they also close the toilet, which I found very inconvenient as I need to walk outside, through another library door to get to the restroom inside the library. I understand they need to monetize all the sitting space, but this is aggressive...
I really enjoyed this place. I got the pastrami sandwich. It was really good, had a lot of meat, very flavorful. It was a bit heavy on the mustard and the chips on the side didn't have any salt but it was a good balance when eaten together. I'd eat here again.
