Loaded Hot Dogs
A likely house signature, the kind of thing you can grab with a beer, customize a little, and come back craving next week.
Opening menu
A neighborhood hangout in the making at 104 N Herring St., with food, drinks, and a room worth following before opening day.
Menu
The final opening menu is still being shaped, but the lane is clear: comfort food, easy drinks, coffee, and enough range for quick stops, long hangs, and ordinary weeknights.
The lane

The opening menu is still being shaped, but the personality is clear: warm, familiar, and easy to work into a regular routine.
