My favorite place for lunch. Great sandwiches, soups and salads. John the chief and Ola the chef have made this cafe into a must have for many locals. Friendly staff and excellent food, open just for lunch and usually with a short wait. Go early or late if you are in a hurry or call a head for take out. They also do grab and go if you need a handmade chicken pot pie for dinner. Or in the summer - tomato pie! Try the Webster - my favorite.
