President Barack Obama treated patrons at a Baltimore cafe to a big surprise when he stopped by the Remington establishment for lunch during a visit to Charm City to discuss medical leave policies.

Christina Saul, one of the owners of the coffee shop Charmington's, says the leader of the free world ordered a roast beef sandwich and an avocado wrap with a side salad on Thursday, and stayed for nearly an hour. Obama was joined by Democratic U.S. Sen. Barbara Mikulski of Maryland and three other women for lunch.

Saul says Obama "was awesome," adding that Obama shook everyone's hand before leaving. She says "everyone was really, really excited."

After lunch, Obama crossed the street to meet bystanders, but not before telling the owners, "the food was great."
