Vegan and Vegetarian Food Options Arrive at The Hub

Last week, Joseph Diaz , owner of Da Boogie Down Caffè in The Hub shared the great news that they were expanding their popular vegan and vegetarian options.

Located at 555 Bergen Avenue at 149th Street in Melrose, Da Boogie Down Caffè has been one of our favorite places to eat locally during lunch time.

As many of you know, it’s very difficult to find healthy options let alone vegan ones in the neighborhood but since opening the small eatery last year, Joseph has changed that by slowly introducing healthier options.

His vegan soups have been a phenomenal hit with delicious lentil and squash or hearty pureed plantain soup.

Now, by collaborating with Ba-ree (run by Sushi spot Cee-tay) the menu offerings have expanded as of today.

Items like quinoa or Israeli salads are now available as well as falafel and even various hummus dishes.

Make sure you stop by and support local!
