If you're not embarrassed to open your mouth like a hippo in public, the burgers are massive and if you don't want/like burgers there's no point in going.
If it's not free shipping it's not worth it.

Is it now embarrassing to open one’s mouth in public to eat large burgers?

Also extremely loud (music ) and very tight. Unless that was only the night I went. Personally, I don't plan on going back for a long time.

Great food, highly recommend. Yes, it's a little cramped and the never ending music for birthdays is a bit garrish.
Jury Duty: Nothing to do there but chill and write a TR. Kinda like the beach but missing the view and ocean breeze.

Taking into account the second half of your sentence, the public would consist of a group of people who are likewise opening their mouths like hippos, so that could mitigate the embarrassment.

Anybody know where I can get fresh bread early in the morning? (7/7:30)

GG and Kolsave have yesterdays' baked goods out. (Anyways I never know there what is fresh and what is not. They are not like regular bakeries who clear out old stuff every day)

Seasons trickles out at 8ish, or whenever the goods come from Brooklyn.

Glicks. Allens shelves are pretty empty until their deliveries come in...

So, any place I am missing? (Would Zomnicks sell direct from warehouse?)

starbucks coffee

is the one on rockaway turnpike acceptable to fit this standard

im wondering what the consensus is with ice coffee and milk?

ETA: just looked up star-K list and they approve cold brew, but not ice coffee unless youre traveling  :-[
threw out my coffee (which is cheaper than deciding to travel now ;))

This is the most reliable and current information. They spent years of research, and they also head AKO.

I didn't try, but doubt it. They don't bake their own and have to wait for delivery from Brooklyn.
