My wife is pregnant and her doctor is at Mt Sinai so we spend a lot of time on that block. I’ve always found this place friendly and well stocked. Granted I’ve only had breakfast sandwiches, coffee, and other random stuff from this shop. Also, they have a beautiful guard cat named Mimi (picture attached).
So overpriced. A single thing of Ben and Jerry's is $10, ridiculous!
Not only is the food flavorless, it’s also overpriced for basic items. A grilled cheese (which was just a GLOB of cheese that made it impossible to enjoy) is SEVEN DOLLARS a Philly cheesesteak on a roll (mind you it’s flavorless) is TWELVE DOLLARS. They take advantage of the fact that they’re the closest to the hospital to be subpar and overpriced. Any other deli would be better.
