    cup of House Coffee

    awesome giant space for a coffee shop. Cup of coffee was quality and the chai latte was well made! Easily connected to WiFi and put in a work shift for a couple hours. Clean restrooms. Easy street parking outside. Enjoyed it. Thank you!

    Great and friendly service! The inside was very cozy, and we loved sitting by the fireplace. Maybe wish there was a scannable menu, it was hard to see the menu posted. Our drinks were also excellent.

    Service was great. Great view of the shop from above as I sipped coffee upstairs. Thanks guys!

    Live music, Saturday night. Open until 10pm...don't know why yelp says it's closed on Saturdays.

    Having spent the year traveling the country, large cities and small towns, I was rather taken back by Flood City Cafe. This is not the type of coffee/panini shop you'd expect to find in a large city - it's better. The first thing that strikes you is the ambiance. Two story tall ceiling, gentle but adequate lighting, open floor plan, not crowded allowing plenty of room to walk as well as sit. There is second level to the cafe with four leather chairs for lounging, reading, sipping on coffee, or whathaveyou. A dedicated stage for live music that fits comfortably into a recess in the room. The menu is pretty decent. Serving breakfast, sandwiches, salad, paninis, soup and other sides. Menu is akin panera bread. They also have bagals, cakes, muffins and other pastries from a local bakery. Generally, a great place for adults, young and old, to come and chill, read, have a meal or snack, listen to live music, and feel warm and relaxed. DRIVE THROUGH ALSO!

    A yummy Dagwood sandwich!

    My husband and I had lunch here today. It was terrific! My husband had a Dagwood sandwich which was so large he couldn't finish it. I had a chicken wrap. Both were yummy. Also we each had a cup of the house blend coffee. It was delicious! Their muffins were too tempting. We shared one with chocolate chips. The staff was super friendly. The decor in the cafe was very inviting. Today we ate outside on the front porch because we had our dog with us. He was given a couple of dog biscuits and a nice bowl of water. We wish this cafe were closer. We'd go once a week. If you get to Johnstown, PA don't forget to eat there

    Must try snickers latte

    Great food, service and eclectic vibe. Bright spot on an otherwise gloomy Saturday am.

    I'm going to be honest, I have drove past this unassuming building in Johnstown for years without…read moreeven knowing it wasn't deserted, but that it was diamond in the rough. In this part of Johnstown, it definitely is a rough area. Parking is either on street or across the street in a gravel parking lot beneath a billboard. If you do park in that lot, do be carful crossing the street as it can be a busy one. Plus there is a slight curve that a driver might not see you while your rush across the street. Once inside you can tell that it lives up to the bar and grill in its name. It has this look inside that gives off this 80s dining vibe. One that calls back to those eateries once found in the mall. You know, those ones where it's almost too dark to see yourself let alone the menu. One where it is very dark wood, heavy on the brick, and all things that make you feel like your in and old time inn. Once settled at a table, we had our menus in hand and were given some time to look them over. Our server came back, took our drink orders and left us for a few more minutes to finalize our decisions considering the menu. Once we decided orders were place and we just waited for our food to come out. It gave us time to look around the place and take in our surroundings. When we first got here, there weren't many people. As we ordered, there were more and more customers that came in. Filling up the tables and making it feel warmer. We were in the midst of conversation and our food came out. I ordered the Franklin Street Bar & Grill Famous Meatloaf. This comes with a slice of the thickest homemade meatloaf I have ever seen. Plopped on top of a pile of mashed potatoes then topped with fried onion rings and smothered in brown gravy. This thing, even though not exactly as described and pictured, was delicious. Not sure if it is fame worthy as I have never heard of it, but hey, I will make sure to remember this when in the area again. To note, entrees are served with your choice of soup, salad, or applesauce, and comes with a homemade dinner roll. The service here is stellar. They all go out of their way to make you feel welcomed and their memory is like a vice grip. One thing you do need to keep on your toes about here, watch your step. With the dimness and small step ups, it would be easy to trip. They do have signs everywhere, but they can be hard to spot if you aren't aware of your surroundings.

    This place is SUCH a gem in Johnstown. Truly! It's locally owned and the food? Oh the food is out…read moreof the this world! The owner, Dana, is a master at what she does. Whether you come here for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, your tastebuds will thank you and you'll leave with a very full belly. if you come here for breakfast, you can't go wrong with literally thing on the menu. For lunch, the sandwiches and soups are amazing! (They also have soup flights!!!) For dinner I always recommend the sou vide chicken. It's the best chicken in town. The ONLY reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is the wait times for food. Food can up to 45-50 minutes to come out of the kitchen when they are really busy. Now, does that impact the experience? Nope! Enjoy the atmosphere while you wait. It's always well worth it.
