Since changing to a vegan diet and lifestyle 9 years ago, this is the best Thanksgiving meal we have had. everything was amazing. If this had been a year to have a big gathering, none of our non-vegan friends would have ever guessed. Really, truly, amazing food.

There’s a menu for hot food as well as a fridge for food to-go and heat at home. There's a cute patio in the back where you can eat your food. I didn’t think I cared for potato salad until I had theirs. The breakfast wrap is delicious. The pot pies I got for home is great.
