Quality & cares about the planet

Everything is the finest quality. The apothecary is humongous and extremely high vibe. We should all try to shop zero waste and help local zero waste stores thrive.
Great vegan/gf offerings in the deli there were over 8 when i visited today.
A little sad the deli serve cheese and dead animals because it isn't necessary. There are amazing gourmet vegan cheese makers now too they should try to find them.

So much vegan goods!

The deli has vegan cheese slices, tofu and tempeh in bulk. The rest of the deli has so many vegan food options! Vegan sandwiches, lasagna, etc. Depends on the day. They even have vegan desserts. Not only that, but they have vegan candy in there too. Plus, no waste! I refill most my items there and everything is plastic free. They even have bottles and jars you can have for free when you're in there if you don't have a container. I highly recommend this as a fun place for lunches and grocery shopping.

wonderful addition to Boise

Finding local goods including vegan cheese made a few doors away, as well as locally and regionally grown crops, is such a breath of fresh air. Please bring your own bags, bins, pouches to take your purchases away. They have clean containers there that you can repurpose, too.

The kitchen serves some great vegan AND gluten-free items, which they are happy to heat for you to eat in-house or bag up in recyclables for you to takeaway. There are also vegan items as well as omnivore choices, a nice assortment across the board. An ever-increasing offering of vegan food is my hope as Boise really needs more dining that caters to us, outside of Thai and Mexican.

Pros: Honest, well-prepared vegan food, Ethical sourcing of local crops and products.

Cons: Not near Nampa, but worth stopping in when we are , Small parking lot
