We ordered the Muffaletta Sandwich, which was very tasty. We also got a croissant and oatmeal cookie. Both were giant, fresh and delicious. They do not serve espressos but their coffee is very good. They do have cream and a couple of different Torani syrups if you would like some flavoring. We will definitely make this a regular stop as we pass through Independence monthly on our way back and forth to Bridgeport. There is street parking, some tables inside and out and restrooms inside the restaurant behind the counter. I will update this review when we have their breads, pies and other sandwiches.

Got a container of the raw cookie dough to make at home-chocolate chip flavor-the dough was very dry and upon scooping it out, we discovered it had shredded coconut in it! That's a no go for my family. Why would coconut be in chocolate chip cookie dough?! For $15 for the small container I felt ripped off given I did not get what I ordered. Overall the quality is not good and pricey to top it off.
