About

This small Passyunk diner serves an all-vegan menu built around breakfast plates, tofu scrambles, burritos, biscuits and gravy, and sandwiches such as the buffalo chicken cheesesteak. Donuts and housemade coffee syrups add to the appeal, while limited tables can mean a 10–30 minute weekend brunch wait; takeout works well for the park across the street.
