Service Charge

Whether they are taking your order, cooking your food, preparing your beverage, or washing dishes, everyone on our team works hard to ensure you have a great experience.

We are now a no-tipping operation. Moving forward, we are adding a 20% service charge to all orders.

The majority of this service charge is used to support fair wages for our entire team, allowing us to ensure all staff are equally valued and more equitably paid. The remainder helps us offset our payment processing fees.

There is no additional tip option for credit card payments. Tipping in cash is welcome but not expected. Cash tips are distributed only to the customer-facing service staff.

Pursuant to Minnesota Statute Section 177.23 subdivision 9, this service charge is not a gratuity for employee service and is the property of the business to distribute.

NOW OPEN! - everyday 11-7

As of Friday, July 2, 2021 we officially opened our doors again!

We're approaching things in a new way for the time being...

We have assembled an inviting deli space right inside our front door, where we are now offering a selection of deli items, artisan baked goods, and pantry specialties.

And for those looking to dine with us, we have a daily kitchen menu to order from "cafeteria-style" with seating available indoors and outdoors, or takeout available to take on the road. We are not accepting reservations at this time.

We are now a no-tipping operation, and have implemented a 20% service charge in lieu of tips. Read details here.

Online ordering of meal kits and other goods is still alive and well through 'Mise en Place Marketplace' and our 'Scenic 61' mobile kitchen has found a new home in Canal Park for the rest of this summer. Look for 'Scenic 61' at the MN State Fair too!

Much love to you all!
