This café was really busy on Sunday at noon, but waiting was not bad and made better by the availability of an adjacent coffee shop. The menu has a variety of creative meat and dairy products, but very few and less fantasizing vegan options. Vegetarians should just do well, vegans not so much. The Tofu-Kramble was very delicious and well seasoned, but the vegan breakfast sausage made in the house was unusable. It was basically black beans shaped into a cake that both sour and spicy, while a very muddy texture. From the two vegan toast options (gluten-free or acidic dough), the acidic dough was tasty, but served with the teeniest imaginable dolls of Marmelade - no vegan butter available. I'd go back with enthusiastic Allnis who wanted to, but no other way.

I had never heard of this place and was looking for a place to take my fiancée for a lunch date. The fact that the place on site parking was a welcome surprise. Many parking lots were full, but 3 or 4 cars pulled out as I was looking for a room; So the parking lot was not almost as bad as finding a place to eat in downtown. The place itself was minimalist, but cute. The layout is different, but it works. I called before the time to make a reservation for a table of two, but when we arrived there were many spots; so we just sat our own. The food was moderate compared to other lunch places you could meet in GR. The taste was also really good! I would definitely return and recommend if you were looking for a good place for lunch.

Last Saturday we had a really good brunch. Many good vegetarian choices, and the coffee was excellent. The outdoor terrace looked nice, but it was too hot to sit outside! Note that they make their own veg sausages and burgers in the house. The decor is beautiful, service was great. And I have to admit that we finished our meal with some ice from the soft-serve shop next door.

Visited on Sunday at 8:45 and many seats available. Many options to choose from, but I went with the vegan skill part was in place for price $12, had to take half home. So tasteful and not bland really delicious.
