This place has been my standby breakfast and writing spot. The food is amazing, and the servers are always so helpful. They’ll watch your computer while you go to the bathroom–they’ll pull out the furniture to look for a lost car key. Did I mention the food is great? But mostly, smiling faces and friendly people make the best writing spaces–and Marcy’s place is perfect for that. Plus she’s besties with Lydia Lunch, so I can feel edgy even when I’m eating the tomato soup.
