I’ve never actually eaten at the Cafe. I had my first baby in February 2023 and I would order food to my room. I ordered from them 3 days in a row. Every single thing I ordered was really good and filling. The room service was always quick. It’s really good for a hospital cafeteria. My husband and I both enjoyed it. I think it was the best part of my hospital stay.

Pretty good food for decent prices, especially when the only close options are gas stations. Much better food and Han that. It’s a hospital cafeteria. They have a surprising selection to choose from. Really good when you’re in a difficult hospital situation. The only thing that was difficult for me was that my daughter’s room was almost on the opposite end of the complex. Quite a far walk/wheel for a disabled person.

Very tasty. Had grilled chicken on sourdough bread with cheese bacon lettuce and tomato. Fries and a drink for nine dollars and a little change. Got full on just half of it. For hospital dining it is above what I expected. Wil eat there again.

I love this place. The original was amazing but it still maintains some of the magic. The grilled cheese is epic. As in cheddar cheese, two slices, grilled with a lid over it for perfect crispiness. Fries are fantastic. Lots of options of bakery items, salads, diet drinks, and even sushi. My husband and I came here for a date once. Oh and they have epic pancakes that are 59 cents and HUGE.

We’ve been at the NICU for 3 weeks now and this cafe is super good. I wasn’t expecting it to be as good as it is. Desserts are great. Sandwiches are always fresh. Love the ambiance.

Every Tuesday and Thursday morning, they offer the most amazing made-to-order omelettes, all for less than $4 each. (P.S. The sweet rolls are pretty good if you are early enough to get one.)

Great food for a very reasonable price any day of the week, but hope and pray that Troy is behind the counter he makes the BEST food! Anything you order off the grill menu, Troy will make it the best with the utmost care and attention. If you are extra lucky to come in when it's not busy and he has time, he also makes fantastic secret menu items. Ask him about his better than Chick-fil-A chicken sandwich, Troy's turkey bacon avocado, or my personal favorite the belly busting breakfast bagel! The added cost of the secret menu items is more than worth it as the quality is sublime!
