Local Broccoli Salad 🥦
with hardwood-smoked Missouri bacon, aged cheddar from Hemme Brothers Creamery and pickled golden raisins in a lightly sweet, creamy dressing. It’s so good, part of me hopes you don’t order any of it so I can take it all home for dinner 🥸

We’re open today with full menu, but we will have limited pastry and bread selection because the bakery crew had the day off yesterday. Will have muffins and bread pudding by 8am, and a full pastry selection the rest of the week!

I did the math and since March I’ve hand-mixed 2000 loaves of sourdough, that’s 2 tons of dough, mixed 18kg (40lb) at a time because I have yet to find a replacement for our big mixer, despite my best intentions and countless hours scouring the interwebs. Anyways, all that to say that we’re well stocked for the holiday weekend and I’m pretty sore by this point in the week 🍞 💪🏼

Two ways to enjoy our roast beef this week! We have our classic roast beef on a potato bun with horseradish sauce, and our take on the Philly Cheesesteak which includes caramelized mushrooms and onions, choice of cheese, and peppadew peppers all grilled together on a potato hoagie. Available on our regular menu going forward

Slight disclaimer: this is not made from local beef like our more recent specials, but it is fresh black angus top round that we trim and roast in house. We will have some new local beef specials starting next week, but most of what we have left is ground beef and smaller steaks, so hopefully we will be able to bring the grill out soon for that!

We’re running a new drink special featuring the viral recipe from little joy coffee for their Raspberry Danish Latte. It fits perfectly here at the Brick with our other housemade beverages and pastries, and on Fridays and Saturday you can pair it with a hand-made raspberry danish. Check out Little Joy’s map of cafes selling this latte all over the US, and help get us on it!
