"A long-running, entirely vegetarian cafe and restaurant that roasts its own coffee on an old-school Sivetz fluid air bed roaster and serves a house blend of Ethiopian and Guatemalan beans; it operates as a social-justice–minded business that pays a living wage, does not accept tips, and runs a Common Account funding a sliding-scale menu that provides 200–800 subsidized meals monthly. The upstairs functions as a coffee shop while the downstairs is a full restaurant, and the slightly well-done croissants are frequently singled out as among the best in town." - Aaron Kagan
