They also bring you your drinks as well as your food order. The short rib size was a bit small but ok value for $20. It tasted pretty good. I like the eggplants as well. Adding fresh pomegranate on top of it. Gave it refreshing touch. We were also visiting the area so I bought a souvenir mug. There was so no price $ on the rack and it was a bit expensive $25. At least I didn't need to pay for parking. The sesame latte is a seasonal drink. It was pretty good! We liked it.

Pressed Cafe is a popular chain offering a diverse menu ranging from healthy options to hearty brunch and dinner plates. Parking at this location is somewhat limited, but take-out orders are available, which can be a convenient alternative. Inside, the space is large and welcoming, featuring a bar area and plenty of seating towards the back. The staff are friendly and manage to deliver orders quickly, even during busy times. I usually visit for lunch and have explored several menu items. The clam chowder was fairly average, with the included bread being a bit too hard for my preference, though it paired decently with the soup. One standout dish for me is the Buffalo Chicken Mac n Cheese, which has become a favorite. The breakfast bowls and salmon toast are also excellent choices, offering fresh and flavorful options. Overall, Pressed Cafe is a great spot for casual brunch, lunch, or even a quick dinner, offering quality food with efficient service. read more

I love pressed cafe and I've always loved the service that I received until recently.. I was very disappointed with my experience, particularly with the manager named Kelly. From the moment we interacted, she came across as though she had somewhere else she would rather be. She was impatient, rushed me through the interaction, and spoke in a way that felt dismissive and rude. As a manager, I would expect someone to set the standard for customer service, not make customers feel like they're an inconvenience. Her attitude made what should have been a simple experience unnecessarily unpleasant, and I don't think it's appropriate for someone in a leadership position to treat customers that way. I hope this is addressed so future customers have a better experience. read more

I recently had Pressed Cafe as a caterer for an event. The food was absolutely fantastic; frankly, I was shocked at the quality for a catering meal. Absolutely delicious! I had the Zohan wrap; the wrap had chicken, guacamole, and other ingredients. It tasted fresh, well-seasoned, and tasty. It was well constructed and delicious. The salad served was also delicious. I would highly recommend Pressed Cafe for any catering or casual dining needs! read more

If you're not going to use quality bagels and quality bacon, you should not be charging almost $13 a sandwich. your menu should also list the ingredients line by line.
