Nice little market with amazing and very unique sandwiches and pre made meals. Desserts (as always) are my favorite. Gourmet and prime quality is an understatement. You can sit in or in warmer months join the crowd outside. A bit pricey but a nice treat

I go to Pratt and live a few blocks away from Choice and I love it. It's my go to place when I need something good to eat and don't feel like cooking. It can be crowded during lunchtime/ the weekends (especially during the morning) and everything is made fresh so you will have to wait, but I think the food and what it costs is worth it. The beef burger is my favorite item on the menu, followed by the sandwiches. I've never had a bad experience at Choice- I guess if you aren't a regular and don't know how the place is run, it can be a hassle, but give it another try. Big group dining isn't recommended since there is one communal table, but it's great to eat-in when dining out with a few friends (four or less) or on a casual date. And please please please don't bring your strollers in here! It's way too small and no one will be happy, customers and waitstaff included!

I am torn down the middle over this place. I like the food, like the coffee, like the fact that there's group seating that sets the stage to meet neighbors...but I don't like the prices, and don't like the service. Its consistently bad service here, and you've been warned - do not go if you're starving. If you are hungry and think you will get a sandwich easily and quickly, think again. And the crowd has nothing to do with it. The amount of time it takes for an $8.00 panini is absurd. Equally absurd is their attitude. Sometimes nice, but most times snotty and at times bordering on hostile, even if you smile at them. Don't even bother trying to make small talk. This is an example of whats acceptable when a neighborhood is underserved. They get business only because there are no real alternatives in the area. I used to go often, when they first opened everyone was so friendly and tried hard. Now they can care less, AND they've raised their prices (even on the day old pastry) so my visits have basically ended, i pop in sometimes for a cafe au lait or a scone, thats about it.
