The spacious dining area is a plus. I especially enjoyed their amazing soups, and the sandwiches are also tasty. The staff members are very friendly, which adds to the overall experience. The ordering counter is in an unusual location, and payments are processed after we receive our food. However, the service is incredibly fast and convenient.

Since I live and usually travel in places that don't have any nearby, whenever I have errands close to one, I make sure to stop in for their delicious spinach croissants. They remind me of my childhood trips to Boston with my family.

I've been working in the area for close to 19 years and I can't complain about their customer service. Unfortunately It can get really busy and management doesn't know how to handle it, they don't have extra personal to help the line move faster. I have seen this store deteriorate more this couple of years, great people work at this location and it would be a big loss if they were to leave.
