The business is not under the same ownership as Lil's nor is the staff the same. Their former sister cafe Lilliput has acquired some of their staff.\n\nI am pleased with the fact that the new staff has chosen to retain both a breakfast and lunch menu that can be made vegan friendly. When you go inside you will still see some of the remnants of Lil's since they had just opened. I arrived during the lunch hour and the place was packed.\n\nThe desserts looked very inviting-especially the Hamentachen. Purim was last week so I figured they must be left over. Vegan desserts are marked with a \"v\". I wanted get that vegan pie they were offering for dessert but they were sold out.\n\nI was debating what to get when the lady in front me suggested I go with the vegan egg sandwich on toast. I did just that. When my turn came I inquired about a phone number and learned they took out the phone. I ordered my vegan egg sandwich made with tofu scramble, vegan cheese, and vegenaise and tomato. The man behind the counter told me he would bring it out. I saw they do take credit cards using the \"square\" system I had seen before. Prices here are very reasonable but please note that certain ad ons carry a small upcharge and they are listed on the menu.\n\nThere is a small seating area in front and additional tables in the back room next to the gender neutral bathroom. I managed to snag one of those while reading a printed menu for me to take home. Since I noticed people with their laptops I learned they are still using the same WiFi network as Lil's. Pass code available upon request.\n\nI got my sandwich and believe me it was very good and indeed filling. I'm glad I didn't get dessert. The huge vegan chocolate chip cookie and brownie next to it looked inviting but I refrained for now. \n\nThis place is not totally vegan. You can get regular menu items. I did inquire about gluten free items and was told they have them. Please note however, the printed menu says the following: \"While we offer gluten free bread we cannot guarantee that our food is safe for those with celiac disease. We will do our best to minimize cross contamination, but we use a shared grill and toaster.\" It goes on to say that you can check with a barista and they can suggest items that minimize cross contamination.\n\nThe coffee they use comes from a shop in Philadelphia. Although they have giant bags on the shelves they are not for sale. They hope to eventually sell some. Breakfast runs until 2 pm. If you would prefer lunch they offer various sandwiches, rice bowls, and salads.\n\nThe tiny cafe is located right in the heart of Polish Hill near Herron Ave. Street parking is available. I hope to try a lunch item next time I visit."^^ . "19"^^ . . "11"^^ . .
