About
Unlike most vegetarian spots in New Haven, Claire's Corner Copia has been serving homemade vegetarian food since 1975, making it one of the city's longest-running meatless dining options. Owner Claire Criscuolo, a registered nurse, started the restaurant with her husband Frank to care for the community through real food. The menu spans breakfast, lunch, and dinner with burgers, sandwiches, soups, quesadillas, and even seafood. It's also vegetarian, vegan, and kosher. The casual cafe vibe includes outdoor seating and free WiFi, plus a small retail shop for T-shirts and mugs.
Weekday hours are 8am to 8pm; weekends open at 8:30am. The restaurant caters to all ages and dietary preferences. If you're exploring New Haven's dining scene, Geronimo Bar & Grill offers a different experience nearby.
