Agreed on the cookies. That was my first thought as well.
Also, nitpicking here, but for (at least some) New Yorkers it is confusing for a site called Midtown Row to open with a giant image of a prominent SoHo intersection.
Edit - the page you linked to has that image. Didn't notice I wasn't on the index.

checkout their index page, does a great job of conveying what the site does. No idea why OP linked to that page. Your designer cookies are on there:

I didn't find this anywhere on the webpage, but I assume that this is a USA only service, so no cookies for me.
The whole thing looks attractive, though. Points for prettiness :P

Coffee that really is "the best part of waking up."
Any copy that alludes to Folgers is going to be a turn-off to coffee snobs :) </Seattle>

Is it just me... or could we organize a purchase / invite chain chain and let an unlimited number of people get a 25$ item for free..
Then the third line destroys the enthusiasm of my tastebuds by declaring some sort of generic shopping site copy. WTF? Were the cookies a lie?
At the end, I have no idea what your site does, have no inclination to dig further, and already have a means to "discover the latest brands" -- it's called Facebook.
On the plus side, I really like your visual design. Now if only you had told me in those three sentences why it would be worthwhile for me to stick around on your site, I wouldn't be adding to your bounce rate.
All the best.
