Of course. While we serve adult beverages, this is still a community-first space. Bring the kids—we’ll bring the cocoa.

Do you have gluten-free or vegetarian options?

Yes—some of our salads and select menu items can be made gluten-free. However, we bake our pastries in-house and our kitchen is not a certified gluten-free environment. We’ll always do our best to accommodate, but we want to be upfront so you can make the best choice for your health.

Can I host an event or reserve a table?

Yes, Reservations are welcome. I have limited space for large parties, but give us a call and we will see what we can do. Let us know if you’re celebrating and we will do our best to make it extra special! Contact us →
