Decent food at affordable prices. The Shorenstein Family Cafe, a cafeteria, closes at 3 p.m., but the "cafe express" outside closes at 10 p.m. I didn't get to try the cafeteria but the cafe express had a limited selection of fresh food and lots of prepackaged items and drinks. It took a while to order because only one person was working. I had the $9.50 combo ($10.32 after tax) with a bag of chips, a bottle of water, and a Cuban panini. The sandwich was piping hot and wrapped in a foil for heating, so I believe the paninis are pre-assembled. The sandwich had turkey, ham, swiss, pickles, and chipotle aioli on crispy ciabatta. It was pretty good. Though the cafeteria was closed, there was a small seating area near the cafe express. The space was really clean. There were restrooms down the hall from the cafe express.

It's a hospital cafe so not a fancy place and the food is quite ordinary, but really affordable! Got a pepperoni pizza and small soup for $6.
