Burgers at Interval? Why not?
The neighborly cafe at 1600 N. Jackson St., is embracing the spirit of hygge and celebrating the upcoming holidays with a very special patio pop-up.

On the menu, you'll find a "Meat Burger" with dry-aged beef, Hook's 3-year cheddar, house pickles and secret sauce on a Troubador brioche bun as well as the "Vegan Burger" featuring a Troubador ciabatta roll piled high with a chickpea patty, black garlic cashew cheese, matsutake mushroom glaze, caramelized onions and mustard greens.
There will also be coffee (of course), hot chocolate, mulled wine, chocolate chip cookies and a variety of wines for purchase. The list includes: Joe Swick Wines Bring It!
