The restaurant is great for a special occasion (though you need to book fairly far in advance!), but the cafe is where it's at. Open Tues-Sun 8am-5pm.
Everything is delectable but do not miss their House Fresh Ricotta & Toast (sounds boring but TRUST me).

I know it sounds strange to be in love with a grocery store, but that's just what The Wedge does to you. The BEST produce and the friendliest, most helpful staff.
The buttery soft spinach from Wisconsin, the locally made Baba's Hummus, and their bulk selections are a few reasons this place is what food dreams are made of.

Super yummy food and great brunch, with almost everything made from scratch (including their ketchup!!). Also a very socially conscious and engaged-in-the-community restaurant. Always check if they're open before heading over.

A free (pay what you can) zoo and conservatory with a few bigger animals like lions, giraffes, tigers, zebras, gorillas. Not gonna lie, it's a pretty small zoo and is a little sad because of it, but it's still a fun and affordable activity for families.
