Walk to our full-service grocery store with a sit-down "restaurant." I put that in quotation marks because it's not full-service wait staff. You can order off their menu outside the seating area and they will bring you the food. And, they usually check on you here or there. But, they don't hover and you pay before you go in, so you don't have to worry about tipping, etc. Alternatively, you can get anything from the salad bar, deli, or various food stations (Chinese, Italian, etc.) and bring it in. Plus, it is a full-service grocery store with a Starbucks.
