Plenty Goods Cafe
7.5
Plenty Goods Cafe is a health-focused Ukrainian Village cafe and meal service known for salads, soups, and desserts built around gluten-free flours. While the operation has evolved into more of a membership and online-ordering model, walk-in hours still feature carefully labeled options that work for many gluten-free diners. It’s a lighter, everyday alternative to restaurant dining when you want something vegetable-forward.
