The patio

Dogs welcome, kids welcome, plants everywhere

When it’s warm, the greenhouse doors roll open onto a stone patio our own crew built. Dogs get a water bowl and a biscuit, and kids get the play corner by the herb beds.

The café seats 40 inside and 30 outside, with free Wi-Fi and plenty of outlets if you’d like to stay a while.

  • Free parking right out front
  • High chairs and a changing table
  • Step-free entrance and an accessible restroom

Fresh pastries every morning. Local coffee. Dogs welcome on the patio. Lunch among the ferns
