Buried under 120 Broadway is a small store front with a deceivingly large cafeteria style restaurant. Named Little Lad's Bakery & Cafe, this restaurant is as much about the affordable vegan food as it is about nutritional education.
The offer a breakfast and lunch buffet. You can also order sandwiches and burgers. These come with a really good pile of herb popcorn. The buffet a rotating set of 6 dishes and they have a minimal but tasty salad and fruit bar.

People in this place talk and chatter about food. It is a happy place.
they charge just $3.99 for lunch buffet eat-in and by the pound for take out. It is the cheapest lunch I have found in the city in years.
I give this place the highest praise. Careful though. I have seen the unitinitiated weirded out by the place. The friendliness, openess, trust (pay as you leave and just tell them what you ate, they don't check up on you) freaks some people out. If you love Pax ...don't come to little lads.
