Is it kid-friendly? Yes for older kids who like burgers and fries, but there are no high chairs or seating and it’s best for quick visits.
Best For
Better for: Late-night vegan burger cravings, fast indulgent takeout, and satisfying non-vegan eaters without compromise.
Skip if: You want a sit-down meal, a quieter environment, or gluten-free certainty — nearby vegan cafes or full-service spots will serve you better.
