The Hawk in Ashland

I have a couple food sensitivities and a very serious nut allergy, in addition I have been vegetarian most of my life and recently am trying to be vegan. Cross contamination is rampant, there are not a lot of vegetarian options and only once or twice have I seen a fully vegan option. There are exactly two stations I can usually get food - one is only open during lunch and the other is now off the table since I someone I was eating with found a mosquito (don’t ask how it got there - we don’t know either).

Respect their schedule if you’re going to charge $10+ for your meals.
