What people say, in short
Bang Bang is repeatedly recommended for pie, with biscuits also drawing praise. One visitor enjoyed a key lime pie and another singled out a chocolate-chip cookie. Coffee opinions are less enthusiastic: one found it poor, and another was unsure about refills. Check the current refill policy rather than assuming it from older reports.
