Attention Foodies: New Hours

Thirsty Camel — Sat, 29 Jan 2011 04:59:37 +0000

We will reconsider our hours of operation come spring-time, and may very well extend them again for the summer.

Local Food Specials!

At the Thirsty Camel we’ve always sought to use as many locally sourced ingredients as possible. But with our specific menu, it isn’t easy to find what we need all year round. So like most locavores (people that eat local food) we’ve realized we need to use what’s in season!

We are pleased to offer [...]

Barter Day

Thirsty Camel — Fri, 27 Nov 2009 17:09:20 +0000

A great big thank-you to everyone who came in for lunch on Friday November 27th. To celebrate Buy Nothing Day, The Thirsty Camel was only serving lunch to patrons on a barter basis, and not accepting money in payment for food at all.
