    I was looking for breakfast place not far from our hotel in Manhattan. I saw in Yelp there was the Cascade Cafe at the corner of the block we were staying in. So the next morning we walked down to the deli at the corner of West 54th and 8th Avenue. Walked right up to the counter and saw examples of what we wanted (like the plastic models of food we see in Japan). We ordered two small Mochas which were freshly steamed and a few minutes later we were enjoying our breakfast. It's a small space but ample for a quick meal - and the food was very good. I had French Toast with bacon - the toast was good and thick, battered just right and sprinkled with powdered sugar - the bacon was not skimpy but appropriately thick and more of a center cut with a good amount of meat (rather than fat and gristle). My wife had two eggs over easy served on avocado toast with lettuce and tomato. A hearty meal to start a day of sightseeing. We came back another day later in the week and shared a croissant breakfast sandwich - the croissant was very fresh and the combo was tasty.

    Moldy Carrot Cake

    I normally only come here at night after work but this time I decided to come in during the day. I normally get one of their cakes that they offer and today I got a carrot cake. When I came home, the bottom of the carrot cake was moldy and I didn't notice until I had taken a bite. It was dry and very bitter. So I think it might've been sitting out for a while. I have had good experiences with this place before, but after this, I don't wanna come back. I also tried calling the café multiple times, but nobody came to the phone.

    Friends, woke up on my first day in Manhattan!! Walked across the street from our hotel, freezing cold with little Christmas snow flurries in the air!! Made a quick stop at the this CUTE little corner deli!!! And friends, let me tell you, I am sooooo happy I did!! I had a New York bacon egg and cheese babel that was made to order and hit the SPOT!! The coffee, piping hot and fresh! The service, fast and efficient, and nice. I will be coming here often for my next week in the city!!! Grade A+

    Egg and bacon croissant
    Christian M.

    Five stars for Cascade Cafe in Midtown. Christmas morning, place was humming staff on point, smiles everywhere, line moved like butter. Got an egg and bacon croissant; crisp on the outside, packed with fluffy scrambled eggs, big strips of bacon $9 and change with coffee. Coffee was strong, smooth, kept me going. Kitchen's open so you see everything flying off the grill. Vibe's warm. Fast, friendly, perfect before a walk through the park. Go, I walked a few more blocks because they have had the same owner forever and serve their community well.

    NYC cafes are a dime a dozen, but my preference are the classic cafes that offer traditional American breakfasts, sandwiches, and comfort food. This cafe has never changed ownership, it remains consistent in the good food they offer and a higher level of customer service they deliver. If your like me, looking to fill your belly with good food while getting the best bang for your buck, this is a solid place to get it. Cheers!

    Cuban Panini
    Nina C.

    Came here for a quick breakfast after running around Central Park. Lots of seating with a big diverse menu, however, food was just ok. I had some Cuban panini and some italiano panini but found both just ok. The italiano's chicken felt quite dry, and the Cuban was a little bland. The best part of the meal might have been the barbecue chips

    Ok I've dropped in a few times when I'm under the gun and have to get something fast. Food, Service and value is 4 stars. There are vegan options too. I drop in for breakfast or lunch sometimes and when you need something quick it's a good choice as they are open most hours. It's a small place but fairly clean so give it a try!

    Egg & cheese bagel
    Danielle S.

    Cascade has great tasting coffee in small and large sizes. They offer many grab & go snacks, hot breakfast, smoothies, acai bowls, pastries, desserts, and a huge selection of bottled drinks. Service was fast and friendly, and our egg & cheese bagel and veggie wrap came out really quickly. There are about 5 tables with 2 chairs each plus window counter seating. A nice place to stop for a quick breakfast, lunch, or snack on the go.

    Looking from my table while eating my sandwich at the Cascade Cafe.

    I was waiting for a friend who had already eaten. I had not and we were going to a play shortly. I stopped in at the Cascade Cafe and told her to meet me there. I looked over what was available. They have a salad area, they make fresh sandwiches, paninis are available along with snacks, candy and a wide drink selection. I opted to get an italian panini and a bottled water. It is very clean place, a corner unit and open for 24 hours. There are several tables as well as counter seating along the window for people watching. My food was ready quickly and I opted to sit at one of the tables. The snacks are somewhat overpriced [It is NYC] but the other dining options are on par with the area. It was quick and convenient and I would recommend, especially if you want something quick, hot and don't want a restaurant type meal.

    One of the BEST bacon and and cheese croissants I have ever had!

    Great find when staying down the block at the Hotel Ameritania! It is open 24/7 and has good food at reasonable prices. I was in there at least once a day, whether to grab a quick breakfast, a drink and snacks for the day, or a late night snack to take back to the room. Wonderful local NYC business with a very friendly and efficient staff. And very clean, too!

    Turkey Breast Sandwich with a pickle in the side
    Gertrude C.

    I was trying to recreate my favorite Westchester deli experiences in Manhattan but the service was hostile and subpar. My Turkey sandwich with provolone and Swiss with lettuce, tomatoes and red onions salt and pepper and Chipotle Mayo on a toasted buttered bagel was delicious Usually the sandwich makers are the friendliest staff members but this one was rushed and impatient with me - quite offensive. The lady at the register was short in speech and cold. The wifi was a LinkNYC wifi

    I got a bacon, egg and cheese on a roll! It was sooo good: gooey american cheese, salty crunchy bacon, perfectly cooked eggs on a soft roll. And a poland spring water of course....

    I first found this place through TikTok, where people were hyping it up in Italy. I was pleasantly…read moresurprised to find out they had a location in New York City, so I obviously had to give it a try. There are a few locations, but I decided to visit this one because it was the most convenient for getting to and from home. I got there around 7:00 PM, which felt a little close to closing time since Google said they close at 9:00 PM, but it wasn't busy at all. In fact, I was only the third customer to place an order. I ordered the La Summer sandwich and added pesto. After sitting down and taking my first bite, I immediately understood the hype. Without a doubt, this is one of the best sandwiches I've had in a very long time. I'm not even a huge sandwich person when it comes to subs and deli meats, but everything tasted incredibly fresh. The ingredients paired together perfectly, and you could still taste each one individually. The only thing I'd change next time is the meat. I had no idea prosciutto was a type of ham, but honestly, it didn't even taste like ham to me. It was sliced paper-thin, slightly salty, and worked surprisingly well with everything else. Next time, though, I'll probably add salami just to see how it compares. Overall, this sandwich was a solid 10/10, and I will absolutely be back--whether it's to try a different sandwich or, if we're being honest, order the exact same one again with salami added. I will say it's on the expensive side, but that's New York City for you. Apparently, all of the ingredients are flown in from Italy. After tax and tip, I paid a whopping $28 for a single sandwich. That said, it was incredibly filling and definitely kept me satisfied. The workers were also really nice and accommodating, and the indoor seating was beautiful. The atmosphere felt like a fancy Italian café, complete with couches and artwork throughout the space. I wish I had taken pictures, but honestly, I was too busy enjoying what might be the best sandwich I've had in years.

The menu inside breaks down all of the sandwhiches, you roll up to the deli counter when they say next, spill out your order (add/remove stuff to your order) and you're done. The most overwhelming thing is deciphering the Italian sandwhich menu. I hit up the Italian Hot. Pretty decent! I added sun dried tomatoes...but it would have been just as good without it. Be PREPARED this Sammie has some chili honey liquid /oil sauce they put on it and it's tasty but it's a lot. The staff are friendly - just focused on getting your order and getting it to you so you can enjoy. The wall is pretty interested they have made their own decor out of door panel fixtures.

I opted for the L'italiana, which features Prosciutto, Pistachio Cream, Stracciatella, Sun-Dried Tomato, Arugula, though I swapped out the prosciutto for bresaola. Oh man, this bread is legit!

This location, was absolutely not prepared to have this store in nyc. For New Yorkers that never had a sandwich from Jersey Mike's, this location will ruin the brand. I ordered a sandwich for pickup on a rainy night in the weekday, it literally took 1 hour for a cold sandwich that was missing parts of my order! Everyone waiting which was about 30 people were all visibly frustrated and angry. I missed my show because I couldn't even have predicted that ordering from a chain would take this long. They had 3 staff, 1 preparing not pickup orders and managing the register, one making orders with a stack of prepared orders whose names they weren't calling?!? Like how can you be this understaffed for a location like this. Getting someone to ask about your order was nearly impossible. Honestly, I feel bad for the staff working there since this is nyc and you deal with crazies, so one guy who waited 15 minutes getting heated I debated just finishing my sandwich at home because I didn't want to witness craziness Ok-actual sandwich was beyond a disappointment. They got it wrong and to get it fixed would have taken another hour that I didn't have. The bread was stale and cold and hard, there was veryy little meat. I basically ate a vinegar and vegetable sandwich on stale bread I could not picture working in the area and getting lunch here also paying $13 for this quality and chaos

After being in a car and on a flight and in another car all morning, we weren't mad about the standing part. We were all able to share and sample each sandwich, and honestly, we were not disappointed. We were all full and happy when we weren't finished, so what more could we want for a relatively quick NYC meal? Being under the plaza, the restrooms were outside the shop but very close by so we were able to wash hands and such before journeying out into the wild. I would definitely stop back by again on another trip! The guys and I all gave Alidoro's two thumbs up - so 8 thumbs total, if you're counting.
