"This vegan/vegetarian cafe is a haven for students, but diners of all ages fill the tables in this funky setting, decorated with fanciful murals and twinkly lights. Most of all, the appeal is the inexpensive, from-scratch menu and homemade bread. The banh mi sandwich, oyster mushroom po’ boy, well-sourced bowls, and Saturday and Sunday brunch items are favorites, along with quirky cocktails like Nick’s Scary Water and Strange Weather. Located near the Railroad Square Art District, the Bark picks up the pace after 9 p.m., with entertainment ranging from punk music to comedy."
