Vegan & Vegetarian options are always part of our menu of soups, sandwiches, Texican food and fresh-baked treats.
Our hot chocolate - available in regular or Mexican - is also dairy-free, 100% natural and milled by Purest in Perth, Ontario
.
Soy is absent in most of our creations​, and we always offer special selections of sugar-free delicacies.
And if you happen to be gluten-free or even Celiac - you have found a home here !​

Finally - if you're a regular ol' dude with no special ingredient restrictions or preferences, then you'll find that while we seem to characterize ourselves by our sensitivity to food sensitivities, our greatest attention is on the QUALITY and TASTE of everything we put on the table. 
Either way we're convinced you will experience the difference it makes when the food you eat is made with a deliberate care and conscience for the natural qualities of the ingredients used to make it. ​
