*Evolve's menu caters to a wide variety of dietary restrictions; they favor local produce and goods and have a lot of vegan/GF options available. More recently, their kitchen and menu has also gone fully kosher. | |||

*In hiring, Evolve highly prioritizes obvious visible mutants and also mutants with criminal records -- i.e., those in the community who have the most difficult time finding employment elsewhere. | |||

*At times that the nightclub is not open, the space is available to be reserved -- free of charge, though donations are ''very'' welcome -- to groups that would like a safe meeting space.

*Evolve's suspended-payment plan means that even those who don't have money to spare can often find a meal here. Anyone with the money to spare can purchase extra "suspended" drinks or food items which the system keeps track of. People who cannot afford their own food can, subsequently, use the suspended purchases as vouchers to purchase their own coffee or food. At any given moment there's usually a little bit of stored credit available for use, which is beginning to earn the cafe a reputation in the mutant community as a place where down-on-their luck mutants can get a free meal. | *Evolve's daily specials are always advertised on a 'pay what you want' rate, with fairly low suggested payments offered. | ||
*Evolve is CLOSED to the public on the following days each year: Memorial Day, Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Year's Day, Lunar New Year.

*Though not open for actual business on Thanksgiving or Christmas Day, the cafe does hold a large and free dinner for those in the mutant community who want to come eat. From about 6-9pm people can turn up for free food and socializing, holiday cheer optional. Similarly they hold a free seder meal on the second night of Pesach (upstairs, not in the main cafe room); on years when this overlaps with a Thurs-Sat night the nightclub is closed that evening. | |||

*Ravenna Lucilia (NPC): Barista. Short and pleasantly plump, this nineteen-year-old girl is fair skinned, ice blue eyed, and her long, thick hair is probably black naturally though it doesn't stay any one colour for too many days on a stretch. Her style most decidedly leans toward gothy. A former Promethean, she makes an amazing barista with her ability to modify the temperature of any object she touches. Including reheating that luke-warm coffee. | *Ravenna Lucilia (NPC): Barista.
