I have to say I agree with other reviews and can only blame management that does not know how to train employees. The food and coffee were fine except for the milk was partially frozen with ice coming out into my coffee.
The real problem is the staff training. The workers at the front act as if you’re bothering them to take their order. Most counter service restaurants have an inviting feel when you walk in, but the last 3 times I have went there always is a feeling that they are miserable or unhappy to be there. As a manger there should be a set way that guests are greeted and helped. It’s restaurant management 101. Not coming back even though it’s 2 blocks away. I would rather drive down 6 blocks

Reliable, great variety, and reasonably priced (which is harder and harder to find).
Best cheesecake!

This place really surprised me! I just stopped in for a cup of coffee but spotted a large, heavy box of assorted brownies, blondies, and brookies, perfect for a party I was on my way to. And it really was perfect, a total hit! I had a brookie and it was amazing, so soft and delicious! I feel so lucky to have tripped across such a wonderful dessert box! Everyone loved it!

Great fruit, nice vibe!
I love this place. One of the few decent spots left on the island.
I visit every year. My friend lives arcoss the street. Good breakfast and produce.
Awesome bakery/farmers market/restaurant. Easy to find with a good sized parking lot for the area (prime real estate). Huge menu with tons of options, I had to check out the porkroll. Roll is fantastic, nice and fluffy. Ample porkroll and eggs makes this a perfect sandwich! Can't wait to come back and check out the farmers market or get some delicious looking baked goods

Legit the best cheesecake I've ever had in my life. My family and I have been coming here for years (and also eating cheesecakes around the country for years) – it's still #1. And always will be.

Stopped in for ice. Left with chocolate cake and crumb cake. Farm narket outside for fruit and veggies. Didn't check out the bait and tackle shop. Park once for all 3.

They sat us promptly on a Saturday morning, and the food and service was great. BYOB - their freshly squeezed OJ will put every other Mimosa or screwdriver you've ever had, to shame! Haha

We went here for breakfast. The staff seemed rather uninterested. We ordered our food for consumption at a table there. A large paper bag was given to us full of disposable and prepackaged (but freshly made) food. So - rather oddly - we sat a few feet away from the counter and unpacked our food to eat. Unfortunately, my son's pancakes had strands of 'hair' in them! And my toast was the wrong kind. We managed to finish our food (minus the cake with hair) and I discreetly mentioned to the staff member about the hair and the toast. She again was uninterested and asked casually if I want them to make another batch of pancakes, to which I said no. I waited to see if a manager may want to provide an apology or say anything. Alas that wasn't to be! So we left and never went back there. There are way too many great eating places within walking distance for one to compromise at this place.
There’s nothing like a perfect day at the beach and then coming home stopping off at Charlie’s for fresh cheesecake and cheeses to end a perfect day.
The best carrot cake!
