Milk & Cookies

All things considered, Milk & Cookies has been doing a great job in terms of helping people and have an organized ordering system for Social Distancing. 
Before the pandemic started, at any given day, they have a long queue of people waiting outside.  Their walk-up window makes it easy to get a cup of nice coffee with a croissant or just a muffin.
So, they smartened up and has a system.  The side of the bank is the queue like, all have a box 6 ft apart.  Then towards the restaurant side, they have a wait box for you, and the boxes are also 6 ft apart.
Yay! My turn, I got an Iced Latte.  By the way, if it is iced you get it faster, duh!  But seriously, the barista is keeping up with the order very quickly.
Got a blueberry muffin and a chocolate croissant.  What you don't see is the Ham and Cheese croissant, good both warm or not.  I like the proportion of meat, cheese and bread.  One of my favorites here.

In addition to the boxes you see everywhere.  Don't get discouraged when you see the line wrapped around the building.  That just the boxes keeping people apart.  On top of that, there's a rep that let you know in case you can't see around the corner that the next box is opened.  AND!  We learned that you can call your order ahead, including your coffee order and pick up at the restaurant side.  I guess that makes perfect sense, they are from the same kitchen.  Duh!  But now we know.  You know what though, even though we know that, getting some fresh air while standing in line is kinda nice especially if you're early enough.
