Established in 1998, the Longbranch Café and Bakery is the hub of Carbondale, a small college town in Southern Illinois. Leading the farm to table movement, the Longbranch provides their community with values-driven, handmade food.  Recognized as a Delicious Destination by the State of Illinois Department of Tourism, the Longbranch serves three vegetarian meals a day, seven days a week. With two teeming pastry cases, an espresso bar and an organic juice bar, the Longbranch is a true contemporary melting pot where doctors mingle with college students and church ladies rub shoulders with the LGBTQ crowd. After years of sharing Longbranch recipes, Elaine reveals all their culinary secrets.
