Guest guest Posted June 23, 2004 Report Share Posted June 23, 2004 When I think " Coffee Shop, " I think coffee, I think open in the morning. However the new Vegetarian (mostly raw) restaraunt is in fact only open 1pm - 9pm Wed - Sun. It would have been nice if they had printed this on their cards that they gave out at VeggieFest. Or had thier hours posted at their place of business. This brings up a new point, that the restaruant has changed hours and days open since it opened in April of this year, only 2 months ago. So fellow veggies, be forewarned: call ahead. Otherwise you might drive across town to find yourself standing on the sidewalk hungry, as I did. (I ended up taking my business to the nearby Greens for a scrumptious vegan stew over polenta). Good Veggie Eating to all, Wendy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of vegan and raw dishes. No meat served there. Oh, the above is in San Francisco. -- Bill Schoolcraft PO Box 210076 -o) San Francisco CA 94121 /\ " UNIX, A Way Of Life.

Guest guest Posted June 23, 2004 Report Share Posted June 23, 2004 Despite their unusual hours and misleading name, I've had two great meals at Lombard Coffee Shop and recommend the place. The food is fresh and well prepared, the portions are generous and attractively presented, and the service is friendly. Unfortunately, the restaurant was empty on both of my visits and I wonder how they're able to stay in business if that's typical. It would be a real disappointment to see another quality veg/raw restaurant disappear for lack of clientele. -Rob --- wendynauman <wendynauman wrote: > When I think " Coffee Shop, " I think coffee, I think > open in the > morning.

For a new food establishment in a speciality niche like this I'd think that they would have standard hours, I too have gone there on half a dozen occassions only to find it closed. Cafe Gratitude opened with hours of 7am-9pm Mon-Sat, brunch 10-2pm Sun. That would have make life much easier for us at the Lombard Coffee Shop. Or something easy to remember like 10-6, M-F; 10-10 Sat-Sun. I'm sure you get my idea. We could use ALL the raw food places we can get. I really wish them well for I too have had a great meal there with my wife one evening when they had their grand opening. -- Bill Schoolcraft PO Box 210076 -o) San Francisco CA 94121 /\ " UNIX, A Way Of Life.
