Questions and answers

Are you dog-friendly?

Yes, inside and out. There are water bowls and dog biscuits at the counter.

Do you have gluten-free options?

Yes: gluten-free bakes daily, gluten-free bread on any toast dish, and a granola bowl and salad made without gluten. Our kitchen handles flour, so we can't promise anything is free from traces.

Yes. The avocado toast, the soup, the salad bowl and the brownie are all vegan, and oat, soy and almond milk cost nothing extra.
