Sprout Cafe, nestled in the Museum of Life and Science, offers a delightfully casual dining experience. The star of the menu has to be their Cubano - there’s a reason it’s a local favorite! 🌟

Service is impressively fast, which is perfect for busy families or solo visitors. I appreciated having outdoor seating options, especially on a nice day. However, it would be great if they provided an allergen list on their website.

Be prepared to spend a bit - my family of three spent around $50, but it's worth it for quality comfort food. I left satisfied and ready to explore the museum! ☕
