menus

yes, we have lunch and dinner!

from 10:30am til 6pm we offer a broad selection of fresh-made sandwiches, quesadillas, wraps & salads, scratch-soup, and other quick & easy meals to have in, or take with you on the road.

from 6pm we offer a dinner menu, which has evolved quite substantially since it first appeared in june 2009...

we use local produce & seafood in season. 90% of our packaging is biodegradable & compostable and bought thru a local small business. we do our utmost to acquire the highest quality, closest to home products in everything we make and actively support our community. we truly believe what makes our food different is the love that goes into it before it gets to your table.

Note: exact ingredients may be subject to change... and if you don't see a combination you want, but ingredients you like.. just ask us... we'll make your favourite!
