Lunch

Our cosy shop houses 2 dark, wooden booths, and several small tables for 2, inside and out.  We offer a light casual lunch.  Soup, salads and sandwiches are made fresh daily and our plat du jour is usually decided early the morning it is made.  We create a charcuterie plate which varies from week to week, so there is always something new to try.  Or buy a baguette, choose some cheese & pate and you've got a picnic.    Call ahead or stop by for sausage rolls, quiche and pork pies.
