x Good Morning ☀️

First and foremost, we want to express our deepest appreciation and sincere gratitude to every single one of you who has supported us over the last 6.5 years. We are incredibly proud of what we have accomplished together. To our past employees, current employees, and newest team members: thank you for believing in this place and for giving your all to make it so incredibly special.

Over the years, brunch has become our brand — and, more importantly, a place where people could always feel a sense of community. We love brunch, always have and always will. But we’ve always wanted to give this community and neighborhood something bigger. Over the last six months, we’ve learned a lot about ourselves and, more importantly, about our team. We’re feeling creative, proud, inspired, and ready to begin this next journey together.

This November, we’re expanding beyond brunch. 

In addition to brunch five days a week, we’ll be serving dinner Wednesday through Saturday evenings from 5–9 PM. Our dinner menu will feature a seasonal à la carte offering, with plans to eventually introduce a tasting menu. Opening night for dinner will be on Friday November 6th. 

And lastly, let’s talk about the rebrand.

Brunch isn’t going anywhere. But as we transition into an all-day restaurant, we feel like it’s time for a little change. We want our name and logo to better reflect who we are becoming and where we’re headed. Our new logo is inspired by the handwriting of Chef Spencer’s late grandmother. She was not only a WW2 veteran, a Red Cross volunteer, and a Braille transcriber for local schools — but most importantly, she was the person who inspired Spencer to become a chef twenty years ago.

Everything we do tells a story, and it always will. This next chapter is about honoring where we came from while making room for where we’re going. Thank you, once again, to everyone who has supported us, believed in us, celebrated with us, and continued to show up over the years. We are so grateful to have you along for this journey and can’t wait to welcome you in for dinner soon.

In addition to our à la carte dinner menu, guests will be able to experience a five course tasting menu. We do kindly ask that the entire table participates for tasting. 

We will have a beautiful cocktail program, wines by the glass, full bottle list, as well as a super crispy beer made just for us by our good friends over at @cmnsl 

We are officially one month away until opening night and pretty close to being booked out for the first two weeks of service. Holidays are right around the corner, and we are looking forward to celebrating w/ everyone. 

Reservations can be made by clicking the link in our bio or head to @opentable. Dinner will be every Wednesday thru Saturday from 5 til 9 pm.

x Peaches N’ Cream

Last of the season peaches from our good friends @bairdfamilyorchards. Peaches are compressed in a syrup that tastes like straight up cobbler, then sous vide til tender. Thick cut brioche gets caramelized on the flat top, then draped in our peachy cobbler maple syrup and miso caramel. For good measure we add a dollop of salted chantilly and all those warm delicious peaches. Lots of powder sugar and cinnamon sugar walnuts. 

( Saturday + Sunday )
