The menu is predominantly vegan with only 1-2 vegetarian exceptions (quiche, grilled cheese). All plant-based milks are used. The owner's personal dietary needs drive the kitchen practice.
HappyCow describes an extensive, clearly marked vegetarian section with 'quite a few vegan options' and a separate vegan menu.

The kitchen is shared and not dedicated to vegan preparation.
