THE CAFE AT CALARTS

Our state of the art café was designed with community in mind and built to showcase a wide range of flavorful menu options all week long. Featured stations include Classics, where you can find traditional favorites such as house-made macaroni and cheese and roast beef with made-from-scratch mashed potatoes, or the Market Grill, with menu items like certified humane burgers and daily grill specials prepared to order. The Cafr offers an abundant Salad Bar with local fresh produce and toppings, as well as a Deli Station that features ‘build your own’ custom options and daily specials. Hot coffee, teas and decadent freshly baked desserts are available daily. The Hearth Stone Oven features hand-crafted pizzas, piadini and artisan flat-breads. Can’t get enough of our hand-crafted pizza? Place an order for take-out and enjoy anywhere! The fan favorite is our Herbivore station, the centerpiece of our café which is an oasis for vegetarian and vegan diners as well as the destination for nutritious and imaginative vegan and vegetarian options for everyone.
