We are hooked on stopping in the morning for fresh-made sandwiches, drinks, chips, snacks, and desserts to take along for our day vacationing on the island. The sandwich counter is amazing with giant wraps being made while customers happily wait in line to get them. The store has a great selection of pre-made and packaged sandwiches, desserts, sweetbreads... to grab if you are in a hurry. You will find all of the items you would at a small grocery store here. Most of the other shoppers seem to be locals who were fun to visit with as well as giving some great ideas of places to visit. :)
