A fast-casual sibling to Happyfield serving chopped cheese sandwiches and beignets.
Happyfield cafe in Haberfield is best known for its towering, fluffy pancake stacks. But next door, at its newly opened sibling venue, the signature dish is something altogether different: New Orleans-style beignets, deep-fried, heavily sugared and unapologetically messy.
The rest of the menu leans heavily into American comfort foods, with a selection of breakfast muffins, sandwiches, burgers and salads. Leading the sandwich line-up is the chopped cheese – a New York bodega staple – made with a Whole Beef Butchery burger patty, beef pastrami and American cheese, chopped together on the grill, and a fried chicken sandwich stacked with Cajun-spiced tenders.
Seating is outdoors on a fully covered terrace, designed to evoke an old school Los Angeles fast-food joint. Order from the service window, and help yourself to cold brew, iced match or homemade lemonade from the self-serve drinks station.
