Serves meat, vegan options available. A traditional local cafe that also makes breads and offers a vast menu that includes substitutes like cashew or soy milk. Its fusion cuisine works with Italian, French, and American recipes, but also produces Brazilian dishes, like tapioca, brigadeiro, and a mocha shake (ask for vegan milk). Upstairs bookstore with seating available. Usually crowded, so try to make a reservation or arrive early. Open Tue-Sun 7:00am-10:00pm.

they now have a separate vegan menu! - Edit
Great cafè! And This week they introduced a vegan menu. Their macadamia cheese is awesome. And some of their breads that used to be made with honey now are made with molasses. Also try the three carpaccio sandwich. You can ask for cashew milk on their coffee drinks.
Pros: food is really good, cute patio (outdoor area)
Cons: don't expect great service

Best coffe shake in town! - Edit
I don't use sugar in anything, so I was extremely happy to not only find a vegan shake option (banana-mocha with cashew milk), but also discover that it had no added sugar (only sweetness from its ingredients). They have a diverse menu, an excellent bakery, a beautiful patio, and an appealing upstairs bookstore. Try their potato bread: you won't stop eating till the loaf's all gone! A pretty good vegan tapioca too. I'm pretty sure they have sweet vegan options, i.e. desserts, but I've never looked for them. Many more vegetarian options, with a great cheese selection.
Pros: Beautiful spaces, Excellent coffee, Good service
Cons: Slightly pricy, Crowded on weekends
