Every morning every day of the year our gardeners harvest the ripest, freshest vegetables, herbs, and flowers growing in our garden at the Eastside Café. And every day the Chef’s at the Eastside Café transform those amazing just-picked garden gems into our Chef’s Specials, Soups and Vegetable selections. Since our specials change every day depending on the seasonal bounty coming from our farm and garden, the Chef's Specials menus below serve as a snapshot of our offerings on one summer’s day to give you an idea of what you might find on your next visit to the Eastside Cafe.
