    Wonderful food and mocktails. Everything was amazing AND vegan/alcohol free. It did not feel like depriving of an experience at all. I enjoy every time I come here. This evening featured the hot potato’s, charred remains, the abba burger (Swedish meatball inspired) as well as the warlock. Everything was tasty and fresh tasting and the cocktails were so much more than juice and bubbly water. They were fantastically balanced and flavorful and what I was missing.
