E<\/strong>nchanted Florist | July 8, 2014 | Starting at 10:00 AM | 54 Columbia Street<\/strong><\/p>\n

Stop by for things like The Lock Box Burrito, Bonnie & Clyde Wrap, The Robber Salad and more.<\/p>\n

The Vault Cafe is open 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM Monday to Friday. For more information, find them on Facebook at www.facebook.com\/thevaultcafealbany<\/a> or call 518.694.0379.<\/p>\n
