The first thing one sees is a huge jar filled with homemade chocolate chip cookies. The cookies are free. It's emblematic of the whole joint, of its homey, casual comfort, of its welcome, of its caring for its customers. The space is small with a roomy feel, thanks to huge windows that warm the space with late afternoon light.
