Should have read these comments before going but thankfully I'm not even a block away from it. It's no longer called "cyber cafe" it's now called "Cycle Cafe" and has a little bike shop in the back. Which is nice to know since I like to bike but I was excited to try out the Tuck Shop. Oh well. here's a picture I took of it http://twitpic.com/45qemi Just went by today.

Alas, it was not to be. It's still a Cyber Cafe, but the Tuck Shop has closed. I was SO disappointed. I'll never make it to the other location in the East Village. Sigh. Missed my chance.

B’way+8th) which hasn’t been mentioned very much lately… Popped in there the other day and as an Aussie I have to say it was disappointing. They only wholesale to this store now and so the selection is as big. Frankly the pies weren’t up to scratch, though i have to say i have pretty high pie standards ;) The sausage roll was all right though.

It was interesting. I probably wouldn't get it again. You should try one though if you haven't already. I can't wait to go back and try a meat pie. They have Thai curry meat pie on the menu. Hmmm!
