Great variety of unique food choices and love that you can not only get breakfast, lunch, and dinner here, but also have a beer/drink at night.
I came here to charge my phone, and ended up staying for over 3 hours. I didn't buy anything, but the staff let me use the microwave to heat the food I brought. The bathroom has interesting modern art, and is very clean and well ventilated. The sandwiches are consistently rated as some of the best in the state, if not the country, and the other food options all looked very nice.
There were multiple options for vegans. The ones I tried were delicious. Quick service. Would go again.
