The turkey was fresh and flavorful, the cheese was perfectly melted, and the bread was toasted just right. That pesto and rosemary hits the spot. The tomato soup was warm, rich, and comforting and so full of flavor and the perfect pairing for the sandwich. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, making it a great spot to relax and actually enjoy your meal. Add in a great cup of coffee and the southern peach sweet tea was so delicious. it's the ultimate comfort-food experience. Highly recommend Ballywhack Shack Cafe for a satisfying breakfast/lunch and a cozy vibe. Oh Yes , their staff is amazing. It's so good we came back a second time for my short visit. Will revisit again.

Very calm and chill place to hang out. I ordered a Toffee Nut Coffee and the Uncle Johnny Hot Savory Panini. The sandwich was good, it wasn't cut all the way through but good flavor. It had a lot of onions and peppers but not bad. I would like to come back and try their Crepes but would come back again.

I ordered a vegetarian crepe, and my friend got an Oreo crepe. Both were decent, but honestly pretty underwhelming. The flavors were fine, just not memorable, and definitely not something I'd go out of my way to get again. I also tried a vanilla chai latte, which was the same story--good, but nothing special. The biggest downside for me was the value. I ended up spending around $17, and it just didn't feel worth it. Between the portion size and the overall taste, it felt like something I could've easily made at home for a fraction of the price. Service was okay. The woman working there had a more straightforward, no-frills personality--not particularly warm or welcoming, but not rude either. Just very to-the-point. The space itself is also pretty small, with limited seating. It's probably best suited for quick stops or takeout rather than sitting and hanging out for a while. Overall, it wasn't a bad experience, but it didn't give me a strong reason to come back. If you're nearby and curious, it might be worth trying once--but I wouldn't go out of my way for it.

Friendly hosts greeted us and find us a seat on a late Sunday afternoon. Nice day gave us the option of courtyard seating or indoor cottage seating. Pleasant service team, great food and a wonderful cottage atmosphere makes this place a great place to stop for brunch. Korean BBQ Short Rib sandwich is a newer menu item. Flavorful, lots of rib meat filling and bread grilled nice and crunchy. It's delicious. Berry Almond French Toast is very good. If you have a sweet tooth for brunch, then do not miss this dish. Steak & cheese melt is a staple on this menu. Filled with nicely seasoned steak, grilled onions and a blend of cheese makes this dish a hearty brunch meal. From the host to the service team, everyone is very efficient and friendly. Pro Tip: use the Yelp waitlist feature on busy days.

They told me that I couldn't go wrong with any of their pie choices but they got their start with the apple pie.

It was about $5-6 for a slice of pie. Would return.

BLUF: good food, but slooooow service…read more We have been to their Springfield locations several times and always have been very happy with the food and the service. This location also had delicious food but we waited a long time for our food. On top of that it came out out of order with one person getting their meal about 15 minutes before the rest of us. They completely forgot about a drink that we ordered until we reminded them. On the positive side, the Duck Ca Pra which, my favorite, was still delicious. The green curry was very creamy and rich. We also got the papaya salad which as usual was very good. Just keep in mind if you get it that even mild spice on that is still very spicy. The mango sticky rice is, as usual, a delicious way to end your meal.
