Greek salad and iced americano
Laura S.

Cute little cafe in media. Parking spots right outside (metered). Good coffee. Healthy options. Pleasant staff. Decent prices. It's a great little spot!

Grilled Cheese with Avocado
Valerie S.

Had a lovely lunch with my teenaged daughter here today (one of my Christmas presents from her - what a nice treat!). We decided to share two sandwiches... The grilled cheese with avocado and Sriracha aioli was very good and we also enjoyed the Harvest Turkey Panini, although it was missing the slaw but we didn't realize it until it was too late. It was still a good sandwich and the turkey on it was definitely not lunch meat turkey... It was thick and juicy and full of flavor. We also shared a cheese Danish - it seemed like a cinnamon roll filled with that yummy cheesecake filling - so good, but a little on the cold side. We would prefer a room temp pastry, or even slightly warmed up. Overall, it was a cute little place to have lunch. We were the only ones in there, with the exception of a few people that left right after we got there, so it could have been a little quicker but since we weren't in a rush, it wasn't a big deal for us. The two ladies working there were very nice, but like another reviewer said, they kept going somewhere and coming back which seemed a little strange. One came back with an avocado in her hand so I guess maybe they were borrowing from neighbors, or have another kitchen out there somewhere. Anyway, who knows. We enjoyed our lunch and the price was right, which is rather surprising for Media, so that was a plus. We will certainly be going back!

Apple Waffle-- apples, caramel, and cinnamon! So yummy!!
Eliza P.

Willow's waffles are fantastic. She and her team at Garden Cafe came up with really tasty combinations of waffles, that are perfectly sweet (but not too sweet). My boyfriend and I often order the Apple Waffle and are never disappointed--the combination of sautéed apples, caramel and cinnamon and whipped cream is so tasty. Another favorite of ours is the Sweet Orchard breakfast wrap. The combination of brie, bacon, and arugula is really yummy and again, always consistently well made. Willow is a lovely business owner, very attentive, and her staff are all very friendly. I always enjoy my meals here!! Plus the mochas and cappuccinos are great as well. You can't go wrong stopping in here to support a lovely little local business.

A friend took me to this cafe to pick up a to go lunch. The cafe is easy to find on a side street. First impressions matter and to me this cafe made a great first impression. It was clean, very neat and I believe the woman who owns the cafe or cooks for the cafe was working the counter. She offered me the lunch menu but also said we could negotiate about a few things off the breakfast menu if that's what I was looking for. I ordered watermelon ice tea and the California grilled cheese. It came with a choice of salad or chips and a pickle. Our order took a bit. Then there was the walk back to my office. Although my grilled cheese was like warm when I got back to my office it was still delicious. The avocado on the sandwich was really good. There was also some sauce...that was really good too. I can't wait to go back and try some other items. Tip: they have some pretty good looking pastries and fill the cannoli while you wait. The prices are really reasonable for Media, PA

For lunch we decided to order out from van Horn's steak…read more 1st I had the Satchmo, ribeye, mushrooms, fried onions, seeet peeper with cooper sharp on a seeded roll. 2nd Classic, ribeye with cooper sharp and long hots 3rd classic pork. Braised Italian pork roasted peepers and sharp prov. With a large Fry All were hot and delicious. Cheese was nice and melted in the steak and pork and the seeded roll was very fresh. Two of us could only eat half. Other half is lunch tomorrow.

2.5 stars. - not rounding up…read more Poor service, little too pricey for what I received. Very unorganized kitchen and staff. Overall missed the mark. I ordered the Satchmo, a buffalo chicken, Italian hoagie, ham hoagie, 4 chicken tenders and fries which came to a grand total of $85. Phew. This was my first time here, but I've heard the food and cheese steaks were great so I was ok with things at this point. I placed my order for pickup and was told it would be 20 minutes. I came in around the 20ish minute mark and waited for 25 more minutes. There was only 1 other person waiting with me. I did see 3-4 other people come in pickup and leave while I waited, but it wasn't busy by standards. While waiting is when I when I observed how unorganized and dis shoveled the staff were. The lady upfront was kind, attentive, and seemed to be running the show putting orders together. But, when she asked for help she didn't get any. She asked another staff member to help bag a specific sandwich for an order, several times, and it went in the guys ear and right out the other. I could also hear them scrambling in the back working on my order, and complaining about how many Italian hoagie orders came in right at the same time. Maybe they were behind, maybe they accidentally let mine go with a different order? This is all speculation but they were definitely overwhelmed and it shouldn't have taken that long for my order. The cheese steaks were good, and the Italian hoagie was very hearty! They do not skimp on meat, but the hoagie bread was so hard most of it was thrown away. I don't care for shredded gums. Overall, not a good first time experience. Minus a star for the price, minus a star for the delayed pickup time, and minus 1/2 for the rock hard Italian hoagie bread. The steaks were good but everything else outweighed the food quality.

The most joyous of rating upgrades. Four years departed nonetheless. Pictured is half a large…read moreItalian and half a small turkey. I see why my first rating was a 4 on the turkey, it's good but not blowing faces. To be fair, you gotta have awfully good fixins to take a turkey to a 5 count. You want to see it but it ain't easy not being cheesy. Kovacs got good fixins but it's deli style fixins, they're not going to the county fair tryna win medals. Kovacs does come correct on the bread which is such an obvious miss for many in the area. Nice soft airy hoagie roll like ya like it. The Italian though is the winner. The meat to sandwich ratio is elite, and the meats themselves were top top. I honestly didn't take time to pinpoint what about the meats were so good cause I straight inhaled this hoagie. Needless to say I'm coming back. Thus far best hoagie in the locale for sure.

Hidden gem in Media!…read more While it looks like your average corner store from the outside, once you walk in, you are met with incredible energy from the owner and a special deli selection that is sure to meet anyone's standards. In any day, you can expect an assortment of breakfast sandwiches, all on a long roll (personally my favorite way to eat a breakfast sandwich,) and beyond that, he has a great meet and cheese deli selection. He doesn't skimp on portions, and it's really affordable. I've been enjoying a Buffalo chicken hoagie, with the works! You may be surprised to find out that he is slinging meatball subs too, which he claims to be the crowd pleasure. After trying it for the first time, I can certainly see why. Healthy layers of cheese and you can tell he puts in time and thoughtfulness to his sauce and meatball recipes. If you are looking for any drinks or snacks to compliment the sandwich, he has aisles packed out with a number of options. Beyond the food itself, you'll remember the owner. Kind and funny!

We happened to be in Media for a late morning checking out the Free Shop for the very first time, a…read moreplace I had never heard about when we decided that a bite ti eat was necessary before heading up to the Glen Mills area for my younger daughter's haircut. After walking down State for about a block, we settled on 320 as a good place to stop to get something that would be tasty but also quick enough to get us in and out the door in enough time to be on our way but also provide a wide enough selection for the three of us to select something that we each wanted. Being fans of 320 Market in Swarthmore, I was used to this place when we went inside, although it is markedly different from the location that we usually go to. The space is a little bit more sparse and feels less like a market than the one in Swarthmore, but the staff is still nice, and the colors are bright, and the selections are still wide and vary across the spectrum of flavors enough to make everyone happy. I ordered pierogis at the counter as did my daughter, and my wife ordered spanakopita and then we were told to take a seat anywhere we liked. I do know that they obviously had to prepare everything fresh which is one reason that we like 320, but I also know, the spanakopita is coming from a much larger sheet and the pierogis only have to be fried and plated. For some reason things were taking an extremely long amount of time. The spanakopita came out relatively quick but was a little cold in the center. Still tasted delicious, but not ideal. However, the pierogis took forever. Not sure why because this was prime lunch time, around 11:30 and they weren't busy. Either way, when they did come out, they were played brilliantly, but I had to ask the wonderful guy at the counter to put them into containers so that my daughter and I could take them with us due to our fine constraints. He was more than happy to help and did his best to arrange them nicely in the containers, but for some reason the manager seemed to have a problem with the fact we ordered them to sit down and then asked to have them put into containers. He protested to some extent, albeit not directly to me, but when I looked in his direction alarmedly (which I'm not sure is even a word, lol) he simply stopped and went back to his other conversation). Even after our fifteen minute drive, the pierogis were superb and obviously made by hand from scratch. While I do like the other 320 Market location better and go there much more frequently just based on proximity to my home, this one was also good. I would go here again, and if you are in Media and need a good place for well-made delicious foods and interesting beer and wine that you won't find anywhere else, this is definitely your spot to go. There are many different choices of restaurants in Media to select from, but this is one place that is set up a bit differently, more like a "market" as described in its name. Go and check them out if you've never been, I bet there's something there that you'll enjoy!

Market 320 is such a gem! We stopped in and tried the chimichurri wings (they were on special) and…read morethe tofu sandwich--both were delicious. The wings were packed with flavor and had a great kick, and the tofu sandwich was fresh, filling, and really well done. The service is quick and friendly, and there's a cool mix of offerings--plenty of fresh, made-to-order options, plus take-home meals if you're in a rush. The pizza smelled amazing as soon as we walked in, so that's definitely on our list to try next time. They also carry a smaller selection of fresh produce and grocery items, along with a bunch of unique snack choices you won't find just anywhere. Perfect place for a quick bite, a fun snack haul, or to grab something easy for later. We'll definitely be back!

I guarantee you're asking yourself is this heaven... a hoagie/sandwich heaven ? Yes .. yes it is. No one can match these beautiful mouthwatering creations .
