Ordered the Grill from Impanema and the ingredients tasted fresh and the sauce was evenly distributed. Friendly service, relaxed-vibe. Definitely recommend stopping here if you're hungry. read more

Cute small cafe ambiance... Healthy-ish veg friendly food options... Reasonably priced for local & organic ingredients. I got a tofu Asian wrap... It was seasoned perfectly with just the right amount of tofu, slaw, lettuce and crunchy noodles. I was passing through but if I lived in the area, this is a place I would frequent. read more

Pangea - Sandwiches Near Me - Ashland, Oregon

I am usually not very touchy regarding service. Grouchy waiter? I don't care so long as the food is good. But my experience here crossed a line. On a roadtrip to Southern California, I passed through Ashland OR. My hunger was all-encompassing, and my mind could think of little else but food. So when I ordered a wrap that had a vegetarian option or a chicken option, I forgot to specify. I hadn't ever been here before and simply forgot to state which of the two options I wanted. Though the menu listed both chicken and vegetarian as options, the restaurant defaulted to chicken. I am a vegetarian. As soon as I saw the chicken in the wrap, I apologized and told her I meant to select the vegetarian option (mind you, I didn't erroneously select the chicken option either. I just didn't specify and was never asked which of the two I wanted). What came next was unexpected. The server, exasperated and in a voice loud enough that neighboring tables could hear, told me "Next time you come here, it's REALLY important you let us know if you want tofu. Because now this is going to waste. I'm going to throw it away. I have to waste it." I had been scolded. As if I were a child flinging food. So a couple of things: (1) there will be no "next time" (2) it is equal part your responsibility to verify which option I want, that it is mine to specify (3) Even though I forgot to specify, you don't publicly scold a patron for an ordering mishap. My hands were shaking after she walked away, and though she brought out a vegetarian option, and though it tasted good, I just wanted to leave. I was humiliated. I had felt bad, I had apologized, and I had still been condescendingly and loudly reprimanded for a mistake shared by both parties. For the rest of the roadtrip, my boyfriend turned to me whispering "waste, waste, waste..." as if the chicken wrap was the heart beating under the floorboards of our car... In short- Food is good, but make no mistake-- you will suffer the wrath of jerk waitress. read more

We had been regulars to Pangea in the past for good wraps and delicious soup. That's basically in jeopardy after the last conversation. Called Pangea as we rolled into town to inquire about the soups on tap. We were looking for a hot treat before a family dinner. The person who answered the phone spoke so fast that she had to repeat the soups available twice. Then she made a comment that could lose a customer. "You know, you should just look up our soups on Twitter and Facebook. That way we don't have to use the phone." There is simply no excuse for that kind of customer service. Assuming that everyone is connected to Twitter or Facebook every second is a clear sign that the server is an arrogant youth that forgets that people connect in other ways than social media. Driving and Twitter don't mix, or don't the Bo Bo's at Pangea realize that some of use actually drive from point A to point B forgoing the use of alternative transportation. Needless to say we literally stopped three blocks from the restaurant and turned around. They lost a customer for a day. Whether that stays permanent is up in the air. If there is one thing that I have noticed in society lately is the lack of simple customer service. This is especially true in restaurants that consider themselves "green", "organic", or "enviro-sheik". Charging high prices (for whatever reason) and acting like you are doing us a favor doesn't make me want to shop local. It makes me want to shop the best. Right now Pangea might have good food, but they are clearly not be the best in customer service. read more

I visited Pangea yesterday and ordered the "Thrill of the Grill" which consisted of basil pesto and red pepper alouette (cheese) with artichoke hearts & balsamic-grilled Italian vegetables. I also opted to try a cup of their non-dairy coconut curried yam soup. Holy Mother of Tureen! It was heavenly, as was my wrap. ;-) Also had a taste of the Portobello Blue Cheese Soup (with cream) - very good, and of their Coconut Ginger Rice Pudding (non-dairy) - excellent! Damn, I'd wished I'd taken some of their pudding goodness to go! read more

I was travelling from Eugene to Sacramento and found Pangea on Main Street in downtown Ashland. It's a fantastic little café with a friendly and helpful staff. The food creations that I tried were wonderful (my companion and I ordered two different sandwiches to split). First up was "Tangled up in Bleu": Grilled chicken in creamy bleu cheese with roasted red peppers and caramelized onions. The flavors blended well without any flavors being overpowering...just a very well balanced taste experience. If anything, I'm prejudiced by my love of stinky cheese so I could have used a bit more of the bleu. Next was the "Ranch Blues" Panini: Sriracha BBQ spiked chicken with roasted red peppers, caramelized onions, bleu-cheese and melted mozzarella. Like the "Tangled up in Bleu", the flavors all worked well together, but what set this one above the other was the wonderful taste and texture of the bread which was pressed (toasted) perfectly for a terrific crunch as I bit through the creamy melted mozzarella and the sweet and hot flavor of the Sriracha chicken. I'll be sure to make this a regular stop whenever passing through Ashland! read more

Pangea is very vegetarian friendly and has some delicious, unique menu items. I've always been happy with the quality and taste of my entree there. They offer samples of the soup, which is nice before buying a bowl. Sadly, I feel that some of their service doesn't match their quality of their food. One gentleman was very kind and helpful... while another woman made me feel uncomfortable to the point that my friend and I left early. We arrived about a half an hour before closing time, and she immediately let out heavy sighs and began loudly shuffling around sweeping and putting chairs up onto tables. She also kept asking her coworkers in a very loud and obvious manner that it was directed toward us, "WHAT TIME IS IT?" To be clear, we did not stay a minute over the closing time. In fact, we left about ten minutes before because of her rude and obnoxious behavior. I do believe people have a right to be agitated if people stay past the closing time, but rude behavior for anything before closing time is totally unacceptable in my opinion. read more

I don't live in oregon but each time I come I always want to come eat here! The food is very tasty and super delicious. It is also light healthy food so you don't feel heavy after eating. Love this place and i hope to come back here a lot more! I recommend this place to people who want a selection of wraps, salads and paninis! Super yummy. read more

For the prices and the portions, I thought that this place was just ok. I split an order of the Mother Stuffer, which is supposed to have mozzarella, red pepper alouette, basil pesto, tomato, avocado, artichokes and spinach that's grilled on a spinach tortilla, and I was underwhelmed by its size for its price of $7.29. I also split the Bison Ranch Blues panini, which had sriracha BBQ spiked Full Circle buffalo sausage, red peppers, onions, blue cheese and mozzarella for $8.69. Someone else also ordered a bowl of their Portobello Blue Cheese Soup for $2.99. The highlight of this meal was definitely the panini. It was slightly spicy and had wonderful flavor from the sausage slices and delicious caramelized onions. The portion was better too. The Mother Stuffer was too messy; sauce was dripping out all over the place. I had only one artichoke in the entire wrap and maybe a few chunks of avocado. It was basically a spinach tortilla w/ melted mozzerella and a little bit more wilted spinach. There wasn't much flavor at all. I tried some of the soup and I thought it was really tasty. I would've eaten more but unfortunately it was not my meal so I could only mooch. I would come back for the paninis and the soups. It's a good place for a quick, healthy lunch but don't expect to leave stuffed. read more

See all

I adore this place. The food is outstanding, the staff friendly and the atmosphere comfortable. The teriyaki chicken wrap is my go to. And their homemade chicken dill soup is awesome. read more

I was on a road trip driving up from California and heading back to Portland and wanted to stop off in Ashland for lunch so we looked up a veg-friendly place and found Pangea! I ordered The Tempehst with tempeh and my boyfriend ordered The MaHarissa. They have cute names for sandwiches that are plays off of titles and other things ("The Grill from Ipanema" cracked me up). My wrap was delicious. I usually do not like wraps but I'm trying to be more low-carb and healthy. It was also very filling. When you order a wrap, it just comes ala carte - but you can pay a little extra to have it come with a salad or soup I believe.. but I certainly didn't need that. I did have a "dirty chai" latte along with my wrap so that probably also helped to fill me up, but I left full and plenty satisfied. My boyfriend also loved his wrap. I tried a bite of his and enjoyed it, although I liked mine better :) It's hard to grilled tempeh with caramelized onions and garlic aioli sauce, amongst other ingredients. We will definitely be coming back to this place when we return to Ashland to see some of the Shakespeare plays that they have going on for most of the year. I suppose the only downside is that the wraps were a little on the pricey side (I think it was $8.95?) but it was very filling and the wraps use quality ingredients (not just iceberg lettuce or some crap like that) so I didn't mind; I just wanted to mention price in case anyone was interested, since it doesn't mention price on their website. This place will also be a new favorite stop-off for other future California road trips. It is less than 10 minutes away from the I-5, and totally worth the stop if you're feeling hungry and in the mood for some delicious, healthy veg-friendly food. I'm curious to try what else they have, although The Tempehst was just so darn good that I may just stick to that. Maybe I'll get 2 sandwiches.. One for then and one for the road... :) Around Pangea, there are many cute shops to stop into as well. The cafe is located right in the heart of downtown Ashland so that also makes it a nice stopping point when traveling through the area. read more

I was in a pretty bad mood, I was hungry, then I saw this place and got a wrap, probably the best wrap I've ever had. It was so good it got me out of my bad mood. When I come back to Ashland definitely keeping this place in mind when thinking about places to eat. read more

Um... I'm not sure where to start. SOUPS: Coconut curried yam=good. Potato-leek=bad. WRAPS: Thai'd up tofu=awful. Tasted like crap, tofu was soggy. PANINI: mother stuffer=ok. OVERALL = overpriced tourist-trap crap. read more

What a great find in Ashland. Gluten free friendly and delicious! My husband was thrilled with his panini and the soups were flavorful!

Awesome fresh healthy food. They have four soups daily to choose from which I really appreciate because I love soup.

Delicious paninis, and yummy soup especially mushroom Parmesan and lentil dahl. One of us said she wanted to come back for dinner!

Their food is so bad. I've been here several times when the cafe in the bookstore was closed but each time was worse so I just gave up and found another place. They didn't even know how to make a cappuccino and actually admitted it. I liked the atmosphere and the actual cafe which is why they got a 2 star but that doesn't help if the food and drinks are bad. read more

A great place for lunch before a matinee when you are in Ashland. I loved their Cleopatra salad and the leek-potato soup was so good I was fighting the husband for my proper share. His tempeh wrap was tasty too, fresh with a slight bite to the sauce. This isn't cheap but you feel great after eating there because everything was delicious and healthy. read more

I fell in love with Pangea when I was still a lowly tourist, and now that I live in Ashland, it's still one of my favorite places for a tasty lunch! I tend to be a little picky, but they've never messed up a custom order. My all-time favorite would have to be the "Gimme The Greek" wrap. It's stuffed with avocado, cucumber, kalamata olive, and feta cheese. So delicious! The mother stuffer is also a fabulous dish! Tourists, be aware that it's a little tricky to find. Until recently, they didn't even have a sign that was visable from the street. If memory serves correctly, it's right next to Bloomsbury Books, so keep an eye out. It really is a jewel! Also, it's tiny, so try to avoid the lunch rush by going a little earlier than noon. It can get absolutely packed in the tiny building. read more

This is a great little café, perfect for a light lunch before a matinée. It has the typical Ashland vibe, a little coffee-shop-artsy with polite and engaging service. You order at the counter and the food is delivered to your table. I had the "Eat Your Heart Out," a panini with chicken, artichoke hearts, zucchini, spinach, and house-made feta cheese. It was light, crispy (although I think it was grilled without oil), and perfect for lunch. The feta was perfectly melted and creamy without being too sharp. My folks had wraps - one veg and one with chicken - and enjoyed those very much. They have several kinds of iced tea, all of which were freshly brewed and flavorful. The goji berry cookie was basically an exotic version of oatmeal raisin and was unexceptional. This place is a great find and we'll be back next year for a light pre-show lunch. read more

Here's my favorite lunch spot in the 'hood By the playhouse: cool vibe, funky wood, And so wholesome and bubbly (Though the chicken was rubb'ry) Even eating a brownie felt good. read more

Helllz yes! Love this place. Gluten free wraps that are actually delicious! Not to mention super fresh veggies and a nice little outdoor seating spot. We stopped here on the 4th to grab some quick food, it was perfect. I got the veggie wrap (not sautéed) on gluten free tortilla and it was AMAZING. The guy behind the counter was really friendly and was happy to tell me where I could find their GF bread and wraps. I've since bought them! Really appreciated being able to sit out front with our dog. So there you have it: gluten-free friendly, pet friendly, and great food. Also vegan and vegetarian options. Thank you! PS- Try the lemon basil gluten free cookie. YUM! read more

Pumpkin soup! Holy shit what a delectable little surprise. Chicken wrap was also delicious! Get the rose lemonade is also a nice treat. This place was awesome! The staff was extremely helpful and kind and really emulate the niceties of a small town. read more

Amazing. Plenty of delicious options for omnivores, veggies, and vegans! The only thing left is to expand-small place and popular for a reason!! Love the Grill from Ipanema! read more

Pangea - Great place to eat! - Sandwiches Near Me - Ashland, Oregon

This is an upscale casual restaurant for those who want something toward the gourmet end. The panini sandwiches are very good though they are pressed so flat that the contents might spurt out when you take a bite. Tiny cups are provided next to a large jar full of carrot slices and jalapeños if you want some spicy veggies. The lemonade is good. A window seat enables you to watch the passers by. read more

It seems to be an Ashland thing to offer unfriendly service. Our server seemed to have a chip on her shoulder and offered adequate service, no more. I ordered a bowl of soup and a rose lemonade, both of which were lacking in flavor and honestly seemed watered-down. read more

Excellent food prepared to order with local ingredients. Soups (cheddar and ale and Burmese lentil) salad and wraps were healthy, delicious, on point and priced fairly. Combo wrap and soup I would call a bargain. A gen in Ashland. I will return! read more

I was so happy to find a great cafe in Ashland with all kinds of vegan options! We had a delicious vegan lemon basil cookie, a scrumptious Squirrel Nut salad, amazing rose lemonade, and a veggie panini. I wanted very badly to buy all of the vegan treats. Also, the floor in their bathroom is the coolest thing ever, I think. read more

I love the food here! I've never had a bad experience here. I usually get the "Eat Your Heart Out" Panini, & I substitute avocado for the chicken because I'm a Vegetarian. It's always been delicious. Soups are always good. People who complain about not liking their soups are silly, MAYBE YOU SHOULD'VE SAMPLED THE SOUP BEFORE BUYING IT! They do let you sample them, you know! Haha. But yeah, always delicious. The Rose Lemonade is so good! Refreshing. Oh yeah. & only one time did they forget to sub the avo for chicken on my panini. I told them, they made me a new one for free & let me keep the one with chicken to give to my friend. Thanks Pangea :) read more

Pangea is a must have every time I go to Ashland. It is absolutely amazing and I have never had one bad experience. The drinks, wraps, cookies and soups are all so delicious. If you haven't been here, you are missing out big time! read more

An hour wait for mediocre wraps! Wild!! Order wrong three times and we witnessed other custome's mishaps. Overpriced drinks (all ice) , no refills. Will not be back. Recommend picking up a better sandwich at Safeway for a third the price. read more

I wish I could say we had time to savor some of the delicious sounding soups or sample a few of the wraps, but we were in a flat out rush when we got in here. "We have a play at 1:30," I told the counter guy. "Is it even possible?" How many times must they hear that? "Oh yeah, no problem," he says, looking at the clock, which says 1:05. Long story short: three wraps in our bag in 15 minutes and we were on our way. Had time to stop and eat them in the green before heading in to the theatre and everybody seemed to enjoy what they got. Fast and satisfying and, oh yeah, pretty darned reasonable, especially for Ashland. read more

My friend is in love with the Mother Stuffer tortilla panini here, she even had it for lunch right before her wedding! Sadly, I wasn't too impressed with my "Much Ado About Cheese" panini or the mushroom one I got another day-- maybe it was too healthy, maybe the weird nacho cheeseish stuff on the Much Ado turned me off...Not sure. We got takeout the first time and they forgot our soups so we had to make a special trip back there to pick them up. The second time we dined in, the atmosphere is nice and it would make a nice spot to meet friends for a healthy lunch. They even have rosewater lemonade! read more

I wish this establishment was down the street from my house. I had lentil dahl and the Squirell nut salad. The salad was ultra fresh. My only complaint was that the lentils were slightly under-cooked. Other than that, super friendly staff and delicious, healthy food. read more

Mmm Pangea! They are a great choice for a nice hearty lunch. Also a good place for vegetarians. When I was a vegetarian I never had a hard time choosing a lunch here. I never did try the soups, but the paninis are awesome. Grilled perfectly and the bread doesn't tasted dried out at all. The service wasn't the best, but it's dismissible when you have such great food. If I'm ever in Ashland again I'll make sure to try their soups. They always tempted me, but I always ended up caving for my carby goodness. read more

Delicious fresh food. Yummy gentle lentil and Russian beet borscht soups hit the spot on a cool Fall day. Liked the carrots on the House side salad.Spicy carrots at the condiment bar are tasty. Hibiscus cooler is quite refreshing. Will certainly return. read more

Delicious and (pretty much) healthy lunch faire. I had a Panini with mushrooms, spinach, sun dried tomatoes, pesto and goat cheese and a cup of borsht. Everything was fresh and flavorful, especially the borsht, which had big chunks of beets and a pretty design made out of sour cream....oh man it was so delicious, I should have gotten a whole bowl. I'm going to ignore the hippie with an attitude who took our order because that soup was so damn good. read more

I visit Ashland every summer for the Shakespeare Festival, and I eat at Pangea at least twice every visit. Their food is so delicious, and so good FOR you. I have a severe wheat allergy, but Pangea offers teff wraps for their gluten free patrons. (They once put my order in a regular wrap, but remade my order free of charge - and on their own accord - after they realized they'd messed up. Talk about caring staff!) This is one of my favorite places to eat, EVER. I just wish it wasn't a once-a-year treat. read more

Pangea is everything I want in an eatery: simple, fresh, friendly, and delicious. This is a great place to go when you want amazing, healthy food at a decent price but don't have a lot of time. You order at a counter and your food is brought to you pronto- the service is astoundingly quick. There are many tempting options on the menu, all with clever names. I ordered the Grill From Ipanema with tofu ($10.95) and was delighted with my choice. Yes, the veggies were fresh and the aioli was flavorful but, more than that, this wrap tasted like it was made with love. That said, I do wish the dish included a small salad or came with the option to add one for a couple extra dollars just to make it a more complete and filling dinner choice. Pangea is an awesome local business with a great vibe that I will include in my dining plans next time I'm in Ashland. read more
