Logistics & Planning
Parking: Street parking only; metered spots nearby but competitive during lunch hours. Garages within a few blocks are more reliable.
Dress code: Casual to smart casual—office wear, jeans, and sneakers all fit.
Noise level: Low to moderate—counter chatter and lunch rush noise, but easy to hold a conversation.
Weekend wait: Not applicable—primarily a weekday lunch spot.
Weekday lunch: 5–10 minutes during peak; little to no wait before noon.
Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Yes—multiple veggie sandwiches, salads, and soups.
Vegan options: Limited—salads and a few vegetable-forward options depending on the day.
Gluten-free options: Limited—salads and soups work best; sandwiches are bread-forward.
Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Better for a casual daytime meet than a traditional date—quick, low-pressure, and practical rather than romantic.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Yes—order at the counter and grab a seat. Timing matters more than reservations here.
Is it kid-friendly? Fine for older kids who eat sandwiches and soup, but not designed for families or strollers.
Best For
Better for: Fast, dependable weekday lunches with clean execution and healthy-leaning balance.
Skip if: You want a lingering sit-down meal, a date-night vibe, or extensive dietary customization.
