What to Eat in Birmingham

Sorry we’re closed

In Memoriam:
Freshfully Cafe, you brought us delicious (if pricey) sandwiches, fancy fruit salads, and smoothies. Your food was healthy and delicious, and we are not entirely sure what led to your untimely departure. Although your sign has remained, you are most certainly closed. We miss you and will hold you close to our hearts. RIP.

I love it when places give you fruit you actually want for a side, like peaches and pears:
