Breakfast, brunch and lunch are all served, and toasties are the main food: reviewers single out the Breakfast Jaffle and the Reuben toastie. One reviewer found the Reuben serving big enough that they couldn't finish it. A reviewer who eats gluten-free said there was nothing specifically gluten-free on the menu, but the kitchen made her eggs and pastrami.
