I tipped them *after* eating it. That's how good it was! I got the mulled apple cider and the Sgarabatolo sandwich and nothing hit the spot better on a beautiful fall day! The service was amazing and everybody was super friendly!

The focaccia bread should be called "fo-gotcha" because it got me hook and I wanted to eat a whole sheet pan of it. The sandwich ingredients were the ultimate collab that every musical artists wishes they could attain. The veggies were fresher than a sassy teenager. My husband absolutely waxed his Sgarabatolo, too. Whoever rates SDC anything less than 5 stars is out of their mind. Definitely stop here.

A cool option I did not try, was a "Fisherman's Lunch"- a brown bag take-away option for those on the go. The server was great, and was able to manage a variety of clientele in a professional manner. One of the greatest things is the beautiful view out the front window. There is outdoor seating available. We will return!

We were walking and saw a huge line so we continued walking, and then came back and the line was still long! We wanted to get some pasties and coffee so waited patiently (about 10-12 mins) in line. They have such a huge collection of pies, tarts, sausage rolls, croissants, cookies, breads and cinnamon rolls, etc. We couldn't decide what to get and don't want to go crazy as we had bought pasties earlier on from elsewhere, so bought two different cinnamon buns and a latte. The poppy seed and cream cheese cinnamon buns were incredible! Latte was delicious! Haven tried the rhubarb and strawberry cinnamon bun yet but looking forward to it tomorrow! There are limited tables and seats inside but it's crowded. The staff are friendly and the regular locals are amazing! We had a chat with the lovely folks in the line and they were recommending what they love, which was pretty special! I'm giving five stars because they deserve it - their food, drinks and hospitality.

Maybe some other time I can try a cinnamon roll.

Met him couple times and we hit it off with good convo all over. He insults and mocks you in a funny way while waiting in line, and that simply adds to the experience. Small restaurant with a few tables and outside seating, but brimming with good food and good laughs all day. I visited 2x in 1 day. It was that good. Also tried the potato fritters, very good! Meat was tender and juicy and smoked to perfection. Sliced as you ordered. Perfection in such a simple dish. Also tried the hotdog and it was the bomb!
