The cozy interior and back patio make for a perfect spot to unwind with friends or a small group, away from the busy city. Although their menu features a few main dishes, vegan options are quite limited—mostly tater tots (without dip), olives, and possibly a salad. I wish there were more vegan food choices, but they do offer a good variety of vegan-friendly drinks.

The cozy interior and inviting back terrace make it an ideal spot to unwind with friends or a small group. While the menu features a handful of main dishes, vegan options are quite limited, mostly consisting of small bites like tater tots (served without dip), olives, and occasionally a salad.
