Local acoustic rocker Mancub is back and willl be performing at ye olde relative with his good pals Under Twilight Sleep and Vampire Party. Mancub has been performing for a year or so now and is known for his charming acoustic punk sound and deep bag of deep cut covers. UTS is VA's version of Slint and we are not too familiar with Vampire Party. Hopefully, they will be as cool as their name. This show is going to be $5 and a really good time.

Cafe Specials

Cool Beans.

Receive a free cafe beverage with any Larry's Bean purchase. Relative Cafe started to carry these awesome, organic, shade-grown beans last week and they are looking for eager grinders of coffee. Pick up a 1lb. bag for $13.98 and catch yourself a drink of ANY kind and ANY size. Spunky.

New Shapes!

Attention all Bakers: Relative Theory is looking for people who make vegan products. If you make the ill na na please let us know because we will proudly serve your goodness to our customers. Also you may notice a slight price increase as we are carrying Organic milk now as well as Rice milk, Soy Milk, and Almond milk. These things are better for this planet and also more expensive but we all need to set better examples. Ciao baby!


New To The Menu

Vans Waffles
Ask any employee here, these are toasted slices of heaven. I eat three a day. No lie.

Amy's Organic Burritos
Do you like warm pockets of delicious vegetables, rice and beans? I bet you do. Check out our new organic burritos and pocket sandwiches. Experience black bean (totally cheeseless and banging!), the bean+rice+cheese trio, or the Southwestern (corn masa, tomatoes, refried beanies!) The pocket sandwiches come in 2 flavors, too! Spinach+feta and roasted vegetables!

Also we have new Pom Iced Tea, which is the dudley do-right of iced teas. There are a couple different flavors to get you hopping. And still kicking are the Jet Tea Smoothie flavors. PEACH! PEAR! I love this new baby food series.

Now Available

We are looking to add a couple of new items and switch out a couple of products. We won't be carrying JetTea anymore and we are now using Big Train Fruit Goodness. We switched just because of the name. Just kidding. Also we are thinking of moving from Revolution Tea to this other brand whose name I can't recall at the moment but we liked to merchandising ability plus it allows us to consolidate vendors. And it's organic. Mighty Leaf! That is what it's called. Plus we are now selling retail size versions of Larry's Beans in a small take home 1 lb bag. The flavors are Bean Martin, Frank Sumatra, Larry's Pure Guatemalan. One day at a time we are becoming an actual cafe. Who knows, maybe one day we'll make a profit like a real retail establishment!
