Supporters say "every neighborhood needs" one of these very "New York" coffee shops, where the "reliable" if "typical" chow (including one of the "best white-meat turkey sandwiches" around) appeals for "breakfast, lunch or a quick dinner"; service can be somewhat "brusque", and the basic digs are often "loud and busy", but hey, that's what ensures it's "just what a diner should be."
