all-day breakfast options

mostly simple & convenient breakfast options like wraps and sandwiches. nothing too fancy or particularly fantastic — had the bacon & tomato wrap (was mostly egg) and the cheezy sandwich.

the best thing i tried was actually the green eggs & ham deli sandwich that i got at half price near closing time. 😄 would be happy to have that again!

Convince vegan food

Works in a pinch with lots of vegan options, but more convenience vegan food with lots of fake meat. Should add more whole food options. Not a sit down spot.

House Made Meat

Grabbed a couple of things to go here and I had to write a review because when I asked what their breakfast sausage was they said they make it in house. Huge fan of when vegan places do that. Tasty food, very filling, really enjoyed it and super easy to grab something quickly when you’ve got a ferry to catch.

I love this place

Vegan food and desserts. I love the club house sandwich from this place. A good latte with the cheese puff pastry and I am in heaven. I highly recommend this spot.

Really good

The salad wrap was surprisingly very good. The smoothie was ok, not very flavorful but no sugar is nice to have. Cute little place, would go again.

Great spot for breakfast/lunch

We’ve been there for breakfast as well as for lunch and both times had great experience. Sandwiches and wraps are outstanding and the choice is great too.
The only thing that I didn’t like was brownie, it was a bit dry.

The place is located in an office building and the seating area is right in the hall on the ground floor. It wasn’t really cozy there, but it’s a good place to come to work with a laptop.

Pros: Food, Coffee, Friendly Staff

Cons: Not cozy atmosphere

Good coffee shop

I’ve had the double-decker breakfast sandwich (in an English muffin), an oatmeal-raisin cookie and the B.E.L.T. Deluxe, which was really good. Sometimes available are day-old muffins for half-price. Great place for vegan food and hot drinks. Central location.

Pros: almost all vegan
