(Visited 3/11) Ambiance [4/5]: Minimalist style design, it's nice, Theres also pretty lighting and a good amount of seating with an open bar as well. Food: Trix latte w/ whole milk (seasonal): [4/5] Tastes like a bowl of cereal from a cup. Topped with whipped cream it's really delicious! Tastes like a cup of childhood. Theres a good anount of cereal in the cup alongside the ice so it feels like you get a good amount of sips before the drink is done. Other than that it's still pretty good nonetheless. Sin-A-Bun: [5/5] This is very delicious, it's a perfect mix of sweet and savory. The smokiness from the bacon surprisingly compliments the cinnamon roll buns. Good concept and executed perfectly. If there were an option i'd choose that over having it on the side. Surprisingly I didn't notice it on the side on the sandwich until I was half way through. Still delicious though. Challah french toast [5/5] Tasty and sweet. You can't go wrong with french toast. I added strawberries, blueberries, bananas, and Nutella drizzle (each topping is $3 extra). It was worth the price it was delicious. It came with a side of butter which compliments the sweetness of the toast and some syrup. I didn't use much of the syrup but it was still delicious when I did decide to use it! I wouldn't order this because for delivery because its one of those things that taste so much better fresh in front of you rather than waiting to he dropped off. Service: [5/5] Fast and efficient service! The restaurant works as a team. One man sat me, The middle eastern girl with the long sleeve black shirt took my order and checked on me, and the white boy with the arm tattoos and pen between his ear checked on me at times, and cleaned my table while the girl was busy. It's great to see everyone helping each other and not letting anyone suffer. I Loved it! Overall Cafe social, is a great restaurant to stop by if you plan on going to the mall. Not only is it a 8 minute walk but you're also given a great meal and overall greater experience. I see myself coming back here if I'm ever in norwalk looking for a quick bite!

Second time here because the items are 10/10…read more However, I wanted to share some feedback as a customer who truly believes this bakery has something special to offer. I don't consume pork and someone in my group requested the lady behind the counter to change her gloves before packing our bagel. The lady did change them, but when we requested her to warm the pan au chocolate, she said they warm ham etc., in the oven. She didn't ask if we are still okay with the pan au chocolate being warmed. I found this interaction a bit odd and came off in an unfriendly tone. It just seemed un-inclusive and my group didn't feel welcomed. A suggestion - is it possible to change parchment paper's etc if ham is warmed in the same oven/toaster? Personally, it seemed like the worker was offended I asked her to change her gloves. I hope it's a one off experience since I truly love the items you offer, but definitely hope to have a better customer experience next time.

Awful customer service and a horribly rude worker.

I was impressed with just how sweet they were given that it's only natural ingredients. I also love that the juices come in reusable glass bottles, which are cute and sustainable. The first drink I tried was the OG, which is a beautiful blue color. I thought the workout instructor said the other one was called Recovery, but I didn't see that on the online menu so, now I'm thinking it may have been the Slim Project. That one was probably my favorite of the two, but it's tough to say! Overall, these are some of the best cold-pressed juices I've tried. The quality is definitely top-tier, though the price reflects that. I'm excited to come back and explore more of the menu. I'd love to return for brunch with friends or family and split some toasts, a salad, and smoothies.
