This painting of the Fremont Troll eating a Homegrown sandwich was done by a neighborhood artist for a local “sandwich art” competition we held. Thanks @mattwiting for posting the photo! (Notice the homegrown “G” popping out of his troll hair…)

We’ll be opening at the end of June, looking forward to an awesome summer on the hill. Here’s a pic of the kitchen install Hipsters [...]
