Bringing a dish? Show up with Pumpkin Hummus & Crackers or Trout Dip & Chips for the gathering crowd, or a Pumpkin Cheesecake that makes you the favorite guest.

Just need dessert? Choose from pumpkin cheesecake, apple cobbler (GF & vegan), chocolate zucchini loaf (GF & vegan), and two kinds of cookies... or order them all for the sweetest spread.

Okkkayyy Sunday Funday 🙌

Recovering from Harmony Fest? Let brunch bring you back. We'd suggest starting with a house-made bloody mary or a cold mimosa. From there, maybe lox on toast or our seasonal avocado toast, and a grapefruit with a brûléed top that cracks under your spoon. Don't forget crispy fingerling potatoes with spicy mayo. And of course, save room for a house-made poptart or flaky biscuit.

This is the ultimate post-festival brunch, and our sidewalk tables are out today, so grab your crew and soak up the sunshine. Pro tip: Reserve a table ahead of time and skip the wait.

Pickup and delivery are always an option too!
