"Upon entering the first floor space from Broadway, a staffed reservation desk greets visitors, and Carter Assembly offers Crema coffee by day and cocktails by night. There are grab-and-go options for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. In the morning hours, what just might be lower Broadway’s only morning juice/smoothie option is a fine bet after a night spent honky-tonkin’. They’re also serving other light fare from smoothies to coconut granola and chia seed pudding. Not to worry — they also offer donut holes, pastries toasts, and traditional hearty breakfast plates during morning hours. When coffee mornings shift to cocktail afternoons/nights, Japanese highballs, spritzes, and traditional cocktails answer. Fresh juices are still available during lunch and dinner, plus there’s daily soup, a brown bag sandwich, salad, sandwiches, and cold fried chicken." - Delia Jo Ramsey
