Very cool atmosphere and the place was accommodating to seat us for lunch even though they were close to being done with lunch service. Not a ton of gluten free vegetarian options but the food was good.

Sandwiches were great and so was the service. They even had gluten free beer. If you are ever in the area, I would recommend stopping in.

I have been going here for decades. Excellent local sandwich shop with awesome breads. Even a gluten free choice. Just had the chopped cob salad. HUGE! and very good. Call ahead during lunch hours as they can get backed up.

We LOVE this place. I went to Sirens with my Dad and Sister for dinner one evening during the week and it was just such a positive experience all around. The staff was so kind and friendly and working so hard during a time that is so uncertain for a lot of people. They don’t take reservations BUT when we arrived it was a lovely night and they had an order window to get a drink while you waited. The cocktails were fantastic. Once we were seated, we loved that the menu has something for everyone. Simple and delicious options. They even had a gluten free menu. Our meals were wonderful, the service was wonderful. We will definitely be coming back through out the summer.
