Personally I think it looks very appealing--like Lee's Beehive in Cambridge, where I used to eat $3.00 cheese steak sandwiches in between stretches in the library.

I've been eating at the Coffee Shop for 20 years, and it always satisfies. from the deliciously greasy toasted bialies (baked fresh every morning around the corner at Kossar's) with a red quarter drank for breakfast.... to individual can of tuna on a roll for lunch.... to the delicious homemade marble cakes that Rabbi makes himself daily... this place always delivers. A true neighborhood joint, at good old L.E.S. prices. Where else can you get a full lunch WITH dessert for under $7 in thsi neighborhood anymore?? Definitely a must go.

Then I'll be happily buzzed when it's time to leave! Daniel, I think the picture of that tuna sandwich is gorgeous. Looks just like the grilled tuna sandwich my mom makes me and they're delicious.

The flamebroiled burgers/steaks were obscene, although the atmosphere was a little more refined than the one on 45th st (individual tables as opposed to the communal trough ambiance) yet it still could be catagorized as a dive replete with lushs, vagrants and barflys amongst the blue collar workers and occasional (in the know or just lost) Wall st type. Other than the Ravioli Faire truck, Rosarios, YIPs and the old KC Meat exchanges (okay I'm dating myself) I can't think of many more places worthy of a visit in the Financial District.

You'll have to find another stance, that one's taken. Also: New Friday ML drinking game. Drink for every time someone critiques Downtown Lunch by being like "Argh this blog is called Midtown Lunch!!! ARGH!!!" Drink again if they are also pirates. Arrrrrrgh.... Shane, don’t you know that its CallingYouOut’s job to accuse Zach of making millions of dollars on this blog?
