Soy garlic wings were pretty good. Husband loved the flavor and seasoning of the #1 chicken sando and liked the waffle fries and slaw. Kids' portions are good for the price, and they didn't get to finish all of them. Service was pretty good. The person who worked the register was very friendly and we even talked about it after we got home. I don't know why, the last three times it was meh, and I wasn't gung-ho about going to Hangry Joe's. I blame it on the name of the place, hah. But I'm a true fan now and will pop in for some fried okra and drink fix!

Everything is reasonably priced and the service is quick. Usually I get coffee, but today we tried the food and it did not disappoint! I would come every time to get that chicken mushroom - Butterscotch latte: sweet (but not too sweet) and delicious! The size is very small tho (you only have one choice) 4.5/5 - Honey Cinnamon Latte: tastes like cereal, which wasn't my favorite but still good. 3.5/5 - CHICKEN MUSHROOM ON FOCACCIA: bacon, swiss cheese, mushroom, caramelized onion, ranch - THIS WAS MY FAVORITE. It was one of my favorite sandwiches I've ever had! So so delicious with the caramelized onions and the crunch of the bacon. 1000000/5 - CHIPOTLE CHICKEN ON FOCACCIA: swiss cheese, sun dried tomatoes, arugula, chipotle crema - delicious but the chicken mushroom had that extra flare, this one tasted healthier and more fresh. 4/5 - THE BURRATA ON CIABATTA: burrata cheese, tomato, arugula, basil pesto, fig spread, balsamic glaze, fresh pepper, olive oil - I'm a sucker for burrata, this had flavor and a great veggie option. 4.5/5

The salsa that comes with the burrito is solid, just a pain to get on the burrito without getting your hands dirty. I was lucky and grabbed a seat to work from. It's a chill atmosphere, with tons of people doing schoolwork or working from home. There is plenty of parking too, just gotta hope you can grab a seat on the weekends.

Thank you for making us feel welcomed! Go support this local business!

Omg what delicious food!…read more Uptown Cafe is a small family owned business in a busy plaza with plenty of parking. The seating is a bit limited as it's a small place but I always order to go. But let me tell you this is some of THE BEST Food I've had in a looong time. It hits all the marks: fresh ingredients; perfect spicing, flavors and mixes; healthy options; tastes homemade because it is; and has a variety of food to choose from. I usually get the Caribbean Jerk Chicken bowl which is amazing because its individual components are just as tasty by themselves as they are complemented by each other in the bowl. It has grilled dark meat chicken which is packed with a unique jerk flavoring special to this place; I literally don't like chicken most of the time and especially have a hard time with grilled chicken, but at uptown cafe I would eat that chicken for every meal by itself that's how much flavor it has! Then it is complemented by house made pico de gallo (I always get extra) always fresh, seasoned white rice, corn, shredded cheese, grilled onions (I don't get these as I'm not a huge onion fan), lettuce, and homemade chipotle sauce that is particular to Uptown cafe (I haven't tried another like it) and so good it's addicting! To top it off they always have a soup of the day which is made from scratch. My favorite so far has been the vegetable dumpling soup which included carrots, scallions, onions and a tasty broth. They also have had tomato bisque, chicken noodle, chicken pho, and spicy chicken tortilla. They offer a range of other food items like salmon poke and beef bulgogi bowls, wraps, and breakfast burritos which I hope to try soon. They also have a huge variety of unique drinks and bakery items that change day to day. The portions are huge and definitely filling. I usually can't even finish my bowl by myself, so the value for the quality and quantity of food is excellent. The service is amazing as it's run by the sweetest owners who are always very kind and accommodating and truly care about you and your order. They always make my day with their smiles. TLDR: A small cafe with plenty of delicious food options and owners who make your day and truly care. Definitely try their Caribbean jerk chicken bowl and their homemade soups! I have been so obsessed with this place since I first went and go there at least once a week now. Their food is so good I literally crave it all the time!! Go, you won't regret it!

Everything definitely tasted homely and delicious, with a clean flavor. All of the items were amazing and we are definitely looking to go back. In fact, we are cake tasting for a wedding and this bakery is a top contender out of 6 different Asian bakeries we've been to. The interior is quaint and was decently sized. There were some paintings from a local artist on sale hanging in the walls! It's a really calm place on the inside, the only downside is that it is located right off the road, like RIGHT off the road and I almost missed the lot going in.

The service was…read moregreat--I asked if they could split two full-size Thai tea boba drinks in half for my little ones, and they happily did it with no hesitation. Even with four cups, they still filled mine generously, which I really appreciated. The disappointment came once we started drinking. It honestly tasted like milk with unsweetened boba. I don't mind if the boba isn't sweet as long as the drink has enough flavor, but in this case, the milk flavor was overpowering, and the tea was barely noticeable. We also ordered a bean pastry, which was surprisingly delicious! It was sweet, and if you didn't know it was made with beans, you probably wouldn't even notice. Overall, I'd be open to going back. I'm not sure if the overly milky flavor was a fluke from splitting the drinks or if that's just their usual recipe. The café itself is cute with cozy vibes. It's right off a main road (Route 29). Parking is available on the side and in the back, and there's a decent amount of seating. Just note they close at 9 PM, so if you're looking for a late-night café spot, this may not be the best option.

I was definitely shocked to see a line outside before opening with additional folks waiting in their cars. Of course wanting to try the popular items, I ordered the souffle strawberry pancakes along with the Katsu Sando. My eyes being too big I definitely ordered way too much food but I would say the souffle pancake was definitely worth the wait. One point I would make is I wouldn't order it as a to-go order and is a dish you should plan to eat there - the souffle deflates by the time you get home (which I expected and wouldn't blame them). The Katsu Sandwich was also exceptional as well. I feel I'm pretty peculiar with my tonkatsu and the pork was cooked really well (crispy on the outside/juicy on the inside). Would definitely come back again as they definitely have a unique menu vs other spots in the area.
