The essence of a simple, satisfied life is having a local shop that lets you heat up your to-go box in a microwave and pour yourself some drip coffee. Not bad, not amazing, but good enough, simple and pleasant.

I'd give it 5 stars, but it's so darned expensive sometimes. Service is great, variety is great, freshness is great, location is great, but you really have to watch--I almost paid double for dishwashing liquid once and went on to Giant to confirm the markup.

Lots of variety, but 35% not my taste. I do love the roasted veggies wish they had larger variety and olipops are over priced.
