Master Critic Review
Sunday C&C Eatery
7.9
Operating from a compact kiosk in The Bowery Market, Sunday C&C turns plant-based ingredients into indulgent, knife-and-fork sandwiches and plates. The vegan fried “chick’n” and lion’s mane preparations are as messy and satisfying as their meat-based counterparts.

Fried Chick'n Sandwich, Elena Ruz, Lion’s Mane

What makes it special: Tiny vegan counter turning out cheffy, over-the-top sandwiches from a kiosk.
Who should go: Plant-based eaters wanting indulgent sandwiches, not salads.
When to visit: Midday or early evening when Bowery Market is calmer.
What to order: Fried Chick'n Sandwich, Elena Ruz, lion’s mane plate.
Insider tip: Seats are limited; plan to eat at the counter or wander with your box.
Logistics & Planning
Parking: Street parking on Bowery and surrounding NoHo blocks is limited and often metered; expect to circle during peak hours. No dedicated lot or valet.
Dress code: Come as you are—casual, outdoor-market attire fits best.
Noise level: Moderate; Bowery Market’s open-air setting means steady ambient noise but still workable for casual conversation.
Weekend wait: 10–20 minutes depending on kiosk traffic and weather; seating scarcity can extend practical wait times.
Weekday lunch: Usually no wait beyond standard prep time, though short bursts occur during lunch rush.
Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Yes—everything is vegetarian, with multiple hearty, vegetable-forward sandwiches and plates.
Vegan options: Yes—core menu is fully vegan, with plant-based proteins and spreads.
Gluten-free options: Limited—no dedicated gluten-free bread; bowls or plates may work but cross-contact is likely.
Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Only if you want something ultra-casual; the open-air market setting and messy, indulgent sandwiches aren’t ideal for a polished first impression.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Yes—reservations aren’t used here. Seating is first-come and limited, so be prepared to stand or eat on nearby benches.
Is it kid-friendly? Generally yes for older kids who can manage messy sandwiches; no high chairs or structured seating, and stroller space is tight.
Best For
Better for: Creative, fully plant-based comfort sandwiches with cheffy flair in a fast-casual, outdoor setting.
Skip if: You want indoor seating, a quieter meal, gluten-free breads, or a traditional deli-style sandwich experience.
