Heyday
Included In
Some combinations just work. Like Steph and Klay or BART stations and urine stench. Or soup, sandwich, and salad combos in office-heavy neighborhoods that actually need them.
So, people of FiDi, meet Hey Day, if you haven't yet. Most importantly, meet its $11 lunch special.
You can choose any small salad, soup or half sandwich for $6.50; combine any two for $11. Like the salad bar, you can get a couple different flavors, but at least here, a professional is curating for you. If you nicely ask your server, they'll spoon multiple salads into one container to get diversify your lunch even further.
There are about a dozen options daily, with a frequently changing menu. Everything's fresh and healthy (or at least feels that way) - think beets, lentils, faro, kale, etc. You won’t be needing that George Costanza desk nap at 2:30.
Heyday is an excellent respite from the usual pay-by weight salad bar below your office where you can never decide what theme salad to make and always end up with some monster Chinese-chicken-Cobb-Southwest-Greek hybrid. And that's why we're telling you about it. In a sea of mediocrity, this is just about the best reliable lunch option we've come across in the area. At Heyday, nothing looks or tastes like it’s been sitting on ice under a sneeze guard for 4 hours, and that alone goes a long way around here.
