Food
Lunch is served weekdays from 11AM-4PM and features rotating sandwiches and soup.
Our full menu is served after 4PM weekdays and all day weekends. A meal costs between $10-$15 and the menu rotates constantly. A typical day has mezze items to share, our housemade pretzels, hummus bowls, crepes, and soups. We don't post the menu anywhere except on the chalkboard here at the greenhouses, but you are welcome to call us during our open hours.
