I ordered the avocado toast and my friend ordered the stuffed French toast. She told me the French toast was good but that doesn't do it justice --it was perfection! The flavors in both dishes were bold yet balanced, and the portions generous without being overwhelming.    It's the kind of place you might not notice at first glance, but once you've tasted their food, you won't be able to forget it. The staff were incredibly friendly and I heard other locals talking it up the whole time I was in town.    If you're ever lucky enough to be in this small town, don't miss out on the big flavors at Phenom. The very first chance I get, I will be back!

Unhappy with service and owner!

One girl there used to know my name and order because I am such a regular.. So I went in to ask about it because it was not on my app. I just thought it was only fair because I am a regular customer there. The girl in charge Riley said she would have to call the owner because she couldn't do anything about it. I said I could have my friend screenshot it to me. Riley said that wouldn't work. Lindsey Yocim, the owner, explained to me that those deals on the app come from the corporate office. She did have Riley take my name and number and said she would contact corporate. I understand that being in customer service myself. The owner, Lindsey, could have easily rectified this by giving me a coffee that costs her probably $ .50 but that she charges me $5.50 for, but chose not to. She made no attempt to even try to work with me. Clearly, my business means nothing to her. I try to support small town business, but I will no longer be doing business there. Not to mention that the last couple time I went through drive through Riley was at the window, and when I said thank you as she handed me my drink she only said yep as if it was my pleasure instead of me supporting her job and a small town business! This is the person entrusted to care for the business while the owner is not there. Rude staff and poor business operation.

We had a different waiter almost every time someone came by and there were a few times where we had to wait a little while (with only two other tables being occupied). All of this said, it was just what we needed that morning and I do believe we would go back if given the chance. One thing that was interesting was the food challenge option. They said that so far, nobody has taken them up on this challenge. There was also no hall of fame wall as the menu stated, but maybe these things just take time. Good luck to them!

What a wonderful surprise to find this hidden treasure when visiting family in Clarinda…read more I enjoyed the delicious chicken salad sandwich, served on wheat berry bread, along with a refreshing peach ice tea.

I will be back again soon!

Grabbed a small hot spiced cinnamon tea and a tall oat milk latte, peanut butter brownie and a 7 layer cookie bar. $14.06. The hot spiced cinnamon tea was watered down and had no flavor, even though I got a small cup. The oat milk latte was fine. The brownie is nicely peanutty, but a tad dry. The 7 layer is hard, but supposed to be more like a cookie. It tastes good. There are two tanning beds and a tanning stall in the back.
