I came on a Sunday afternoon and there were many people there enjoying the food and coffee. I ordered a honey bear latte (highly recommended by friends) and breakfast burrito. Both were great and the burrito was big and filling. They told me it would take 15-20 min for the food. There are some tables inside but they have a larger outdoor seating area with heaters during the winter. They also have a small grocery section and included personal care items, produce, local dairy and meats, and nicer shelf items. I would come again to try more of their menu but try to order ahead next time. read more

Still coming to this location where the food and coffee are really good. We look past aloof staff and enjoy a rare spot in a part of town still emerging. Keep serving it up, Daylily. Glad you have continued to make it. read more

Sandwiches are always a hit and the outdoor space is unbeatable. Love the area it's in too- a perfect post walk meal!

The sandwiches here are amazing. I'm not sure what made me decide to try the egg salad sandwich , but it was amazing. My wife enjoyed her sandwich, too. The staff was very nice. Overall, it's a quirky, eclectic place but it seems to work well read more

Came here for lunch and we enjoyed the sandwiches! I loved the chopped cheese and my son liked the turkey club. It wasn't very busy, but the food took a little longer than expected to come out. Ingredients were fresh and it was good. We liked the outdoor seating in the back. We plan to come back and try more sandwiches and a coffee next time. read more

LOVE Daylily, what a special little bodega! The local market is missing out on bodegas, a quick place to run in and grab a quality sandwich, farm fresh veggies, and a warm latte. Daylily serves up the most delicious chopped cheese I've ever had. It can easily be split into two meals or shared, especially if you add a side of potato salad. The deli has a selection of meats and cheeses as well as sandwiches made to order. The fridge and shelves are always well stocked with local fruits, veggies, meat, and cheeses from local businesses. You can even grab a gorgeous bouquet from Eve Floral Co on the way out! Street parking is free, there's a covered patio in the back right off the bike trail. However, the bar facing the street is cozy and a fun spot to people watch while sipping on a coffee. read more

It was ok but not amazing my boyfriend and my boyfriend both got the turkey club. It was good. It was your basic turkey sandwich, not truly a club (because a club has 3 slices of bread), with cheese, bacon, lettuce and tomato. It has mustard and mayo on wheat bread. It at the end of the day, there was nothing special about it. I was hoping for a nice cranberry compote or something else to make it unique in some way. Unfortunately, I'll save my $12 next time and make my own. read more

The food and coffees are wonderful. Every other Salazar establishment has been welcoming and the service excellent. Not at Daylily. The staff - most of the time it's the manager - acts as if we are putting them out by being there. The last time we were there the manager (who took our order) interrupted me mid order to ask for a name. I said I would like to add another coffee and she rolled her eyes and said "okay. Name?" While we love the food, coffee, and concept of a neighborhood bodega type establishment, we will spend our money elsewhere. read more

Probably one of the worst breakfast sandwiches I've had, soggy bread, flimsy bacon and way too much egg. I won't be back. Not worth the price. Gotta love that the egg was half burnt too just not a good place. read more

Quaint little spot in an older neighbor. Appears to be mostly a local spot with beer and wine. Coffee and a deli. Prices were decent. Just needed something cold. Has a few outdoor seats. Service was good. read more

Really enjoyed my two visits to Daylily. Both times, I had the egg salad on rye. They are generous sandwiches and hit the spot! Mostly, I love the concept of Daylily. I wish my neighborhood had a bodega like this where you can stop by for a sandwich and some groceries/sundries you might need for home. read more

I stopped here one morning before heading to Bookery to grab an Egg on a Roll sandwich and a latte. Both were good, but honestly nothing was super memorable about either. If in the area I would go again, but wouldn't go out of my way. read more

Three words: Chopped. Cheese. Sandwich. I've not yet had the pleasure of experiencing a true NY bodega/deli ... but after a visit to Daylily in Columbia Tusculum, I can totally appreciate the vibe. I'm already a fan of Deeper Roots Coffee, so it wasn't a hard decision to start with one of their "Honey Bear" lattes. It ~was~ a challenge to decide which sandwich I wanted ... so I asked the cashier for a recommendation, and her first question was whether or not I ate meat! I so appreciate the plant-based inclusivity. She said the Chopped Cheese is a customer favorite, and after absolutely devouring one of these delicious sandwiches, I can see why. It's got all of the memorable flavors of a cheeseburger (ground meat and American cheese) but then it's topped with banana peppers, veggies, and a special sauce, and served on a hoagie roll. Seriously ... don't miss out on this incredible sandwich. Daylily does have a few booths inside - but on a nice day, their patio is where it's at. I can absolutely see myself stopping by this summer for a working lunch outdoors - especially since they have free WiFi! read more

I'm already looking forward to my next visit here! I was extremely impressed by the local miniature store inside the cafe. It has a tiny grocery store feel with local produce and goods, including a wall of international wine selections. They even have an aesthetic rest stop vibe with easy-to-grab conveniences such as menstrual pads, toothpaste, soap bars, drain cleaner, and Day-quill. To-go i got a tub of whole milk maple yogurt and a black-and-white gluten free fresh cookie that tasted similar to Busken's tea cookies. To drink, I got a chai latte with oat milk (they offer two plant based milks, oat and macadamia) with a shot of espresso. I shared with my mom the grilled cheese and charred veggie sandwiches, both with gluten free bread. The menu has vegetarian options clearly labeled. The gluten free bread does share a toaster with regular bread, however. We enjoyed our meal in the "backyard," which is beautiful and airy with picnic benches and you could enjoy the weather mixed with lots of bird songs. This was located close to the gender neutral bathrooms at the back of the cafe. The staff were all very friendly and all hard at work making food and restocking the mini store. All customers got their orders fairly quickly, with a great attitude from the staff - especially for it being a Monday. Thank you Daylily! read more

Stopped by Daylilly to check it out and really enjoyed it. It's the kind of place every neighborhood would need. I've heard great things about the breakfast but it was lunch time when we went. Service was friendly and food arrived quickly. We ordered the chicken salad sandwich on rye and the mushroom soup. The sandwich was dope with the bread perfectly toasted. Came with tomatoes, lettuce, and thinly sliced red onion. The soup was pretty good, more like a vegetable stew. Needed a bit of salt. The vibes are great. Love the store side with cool dry goods. read more

I couldn't wait to try Daylily when I heard about it, and it did not disappoint! While the food is great, what I love about this little bodega is the small grocery store/market in the back. You can find fresh grown produce like mushrooms, tomatoes, lettuce and peppers, as well as different types of non-dairy milks, snacks and drinks. Need a couple ingredients for dinner? Pop on over and grab what you need. They also have a coffee bar, partnering with Deeper Roots to make that happen. I had a cortado with orange of some sort and it was very tasty. They also have some unique drinks - I enjoyed the cola tasting hydration tonic, a "good for you" version of a coke full of healthy ingredients. Once the weather is nicer, their outdoor patio will be perfect for coming and relaxing with friends. It's huge and spacious with plants and heaters for when it's chilly. I highly recommend coming to grab a sandwich for lunch while exploring everything else they have to offer. read more

The quality of this cafe has gone down hill. It used to be one of my local favorites. The lattes are barely warm and lack sweetness of the flavored syrup. Instead of a well balanced latte you get mostly messy milk foam. They're even served in a cappuccino mug instead of the standard latte mug. Surprised by the lack of the quality and consistency with Chef Salazar name attached. read more

The chai was tasty, but the service was so bad. I asked an employee for help with the wifi because I couldn't log on, and she was using her computer. She told me that she had access because she was an employee. She said that the wifi couldn't handle a lot of people using it, but I pointed out that the place was empty. She said she was going to reset the router, but she simply never came back. So much for a good place to tuck in and get a little work done over a cozy cup of warmth. read more

Daylily is such a fun place if you want breakfast, lunch, a coffee, or need to grab a few things you forgot at the grocery store. The girl who took our order was super helpful as it was our first time there-- she recommended I upgrade the Maple Leaf signature drink into a latte, and it was so delicious! Pictured here is the Egg on a Roll with goetta, but we also got the Burrito of Champions and it was the best breakfast burrito we've ever had (so good we forgot to take a photo). I love the seating area in the back because it's a very unique place, super cute random items & wine selection, along with alot of groceries you might need! Definitely will be back! One of my favorite parts was that you could purchase Tony's chocolate bars at the counter. read more

Cute little cafe / quick shop across from the Carnegie Center of Columbia Tusculum, which I only mention because we sat at the bar at the store front looking across the street at that fine structure. We stopped at Daylily looking for a quick lunch and we found it. I had a tasty grilled cheese sandwich - the bread and cheese were delicious! Daughter had a turkey and Swiss sandwich pressed in the panini press (custom order that was nicely accommodated on this Monday afternoon). A bag of kettle chips and a couple of drinks from the fridge section and we were set. It was exactly what we wanted. We easily found parking in the street and there was no line to order, no problem finding a seat. After writing this I read some of the other reviews. My assessment: try not to get hung up on preconceived notions based on who owns this joint. Stop in because you want a quick bite in a clean, friendly place with a good cook at the grill. We did and it was great! read more

I need to take a second to give this place the review they deserve. This is my second time trying daylily and I LOVE IT! - I haven't tried the other items on the menu yet, but they all sound delicious and I must come back for more. I got their Cubano and oooof, it was so good. I love how crispy the bread was, and so tasty. I will say, though, that the bottom of the sandwich was soggy. 90% of the bread was crispy, warm and delicious but the bottom was soggy, so maybe something to keep in mind. The staff is very friendly and generous, and they get orders out fast! It's a cute concept since it's a bodega style, and today was a beautiful, sunny day so we got to eat in their backyard, which was lovely! I can't wait to come back and try more items on the menu. So delicious!! read more

Was looking forward to stopping by Daylilly for lunch! I was not overly impressed. Service was mediocre- we were not welcomed in, ordered our sandwiches and were told it would be 10-15 minutes, that was fine - we said we would go sit on the porch and wait. After 20 min we came in and our sandwiches had been sitting ready and waiting. They did not come or attempt to find us to tell us our food was ready. It was not busy, either. The sandwich was wrong (asked for no mayo and there was a lot of mayo). Pickle spear is TINY, not worth the additional cost. The chopped cheese had great taste but was an absolute mess to eat and we were not given napkins. My husband liked the Italian, but does not like mayo. There is some seating inside, outside on covered deck, and picnic tables in the grass. Street parking. Little market inside. Did not try the coffee. Won't be rushing back anytime soon. read more

Great food and drinks. The overall vision for the place is great too. Only thing I would knock against it is that their "fresh" produce is usually looking a little rough. Berries usually have mold on them and if you look at the refrigerator fans, you'll see a build up of mold and dust. Wouldn't buy anything there that is not sealed. read more

Went here late Saturday morning and had an amazing experience. We ordered egg, ham, and cheese bagel and a breakfast burrito. It took about 20 minutes but we didn't mind the wait at all as we sat in the beautiful shaded back patio. Both breakfast items were great, will definitely be back! read more

I picked up a sheet pan of lasagna last week and took it home to bake. It was so delicious and just what I needed to put dinner on the table after a hectic day. Please make more take away meals like this and post when available on social media. Yum! read more

Heard about this place from another coffee shop that I love so I had to check it out. Equal parts convenience store, deli and coffee shop. I highly recommend checking out the egg cream soda as it's one of the best coffee drinks I've found in the Cincy area. Sounds weird but tastes delicious. The breakfast sandwiches are also delicious and quite large. My wife and I split one and both felt stuffed. The staff is really nice and the service was pretty quick considering how busy they were. There's a few seating options inside as well as. Nice outdoor area. Definitely check this place out if you're looking for a sammie, breakfast or coffee! read more

Got the breakfast burrito and the potatos were not cooked at all, which was disappointing because the other ingredients were great!

Cute little deli in the Columbia Tusculum area. Came for a Sunday afternoon snack with a friend. Tried the grilled cheese sandwich and an Egg Cream Coffee Soda since that's one of their signature drinks that's different. The grilled cheese was open gooey and satisfying. The drink was interesting and I'm glad I tried it. I do want to come back to try more of the food and lattes. They also have a small convenience store inside to get some local eats and farm fresh feels. Looking forward to my next visit. read more

Daylily is still in its soft opening currently, but they're open and had decent business while we were there. It's a pleasantly small space, but is longer than it appears from the street. There is backyard seating, which looked quite pleasant. Since we had already eaten lunch, we just got a couple of coffee drinks. My wife's iced latte was pleasant, just a good coffee. I tried the maple leaf, a cortado with maple syrup and orange zest, which was excellent. I think maple syrup can be cloying, but this was really well balanced. Chef Salazar himself was there when we were. It was nice to see how comfortable his staff was around him. They have a really great, calm vibe going on. Obviously the selection of grocery items is small. But this means it is also curated. It looks like things are selected carefully for quality, and there is a nice variety. There's everything from small containers of bacon fat to San Marzano tomatoes to local coneys and goetta. I'm looking forward to getting back for a meal sometime! read more

I really wanted to love this place. I loved the concept when it was first announced, I thought it was a brilliant idea and a great addition to Cincinnati area. I mean it's as an incredible match, Deeper roots coffee it's outstanding, on of my fave because they have macadamia milk, and Jose Salazars restaurants offer delicious food. We went on a Saturday afternoon, and it was very empty, we checked out the bodega, and while they have most necessities, I really wanted to see Latin American products, maybe just a few, but nothing out of the ordinary. Also, the place itself is beautiful, is well organized, and they have tables inside and outside which is awesome. Along with that, the service is great, employees are nice and friendly. As far as the food, I was very dissapointed. The coffee was delicia as usual, the beer selection is very poor, and the sandwiches were blah. I had the Reuben, and my mum had the chicken sandwich. The Reuben had beef and i think the meet was not the best quality, as far as the chicken, it didn't taste like it was well cocked. Not a fan of either, very shocking knowing Mitas, Salazar and Goose and Elder have great delicious plates. Not sure if I'll go back, but they do have other interesting options in the menu, also they just opened up so it might improve. read more
