Quick snack stop

We were in search of a quick snack and got the hummus plate. Very yummy. Will be back to check out more of their vegan options.

Pros: Friendly service, Delicious food, Cute patio

Great Matcha & Vibe

Meráki is a charming little shop tucked away in a corner of University Heights. The menu isn’t labeled, nor are the vegan options incredibly exciting. However, they were very friendly. They did not appear to know what was vegan at first but instantly checked a few labels and showed me a label they were unsure about. I appreciate this kind of honesty, and willingness to check, so I can feel comfortable that it’s vegan.

I ended up ordering the avocado toast on a plain bagel with no cheese and an oat milk matcha. The avocado “bagel” was giant and pretty good. I loved the abundance of arugula and ripe tomatoes. The matcha was very tasty.

The shop itself is cute, clean, and has a nice vibe. On a weekday morning, the parking was easy. There is a decent-sized outdoor patio, and I liked how the doors are kept open, so most of the shop has fresh air if that's your jam, like mine. But if it's not, there were corners without a breeze. Definitely, a shop you could linger in and feel comfortable.
