This ain't Chipotle, okay? We're open all day, serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Guests can order at the counter, grab their drinks, and find their perfect spot, or enjoy full service at the bar with handcrafted cocktails, local beer, and a curated wine list. Our top-notch coffee program is as good as any café in town, and our chef-driven, seasonally updated menu spotlights the best locally sourced ingredients.
