The waiter who took our order mentioned that he was one of the chefs but had to help out front because they got swamped. I eat gluten free and there wasn't much on the menu I could eat so I asked for a turkey burger without the bun and they asked if I wanted it between lettuce leaves. It was delicious with onion and tomato. I had a side of vegetables also. My husband had chicken wings which he said were good. They were the special for the day. He said he wasn't offered any sauces and they were just plain deep fried chicken wigs which were good, just nothing special. It was a busy place on a Su day afternoon. As I said before, everyone was so friendly and accommodating. We would stop back if in the area.

Overall, I find this place unfortunately disheartening. Since Buddhism teaches to do no harm to any…read moreliving being, a place called Buddha Bean had me expecting an oasis of plant-based food. Within Buddhism there is an emphasis on compassion which entails empathetic concern and a desire to alleviate the suffering of others, acknowledging the interconnectedness of all sentient beings. Yet the menu is full of the secretions and flesh of many sentient beings who suffered a murderous death. I expected better from a place that invokes Buddha in their name. There are a couple vegan sandwich options and you can get plant-based milk for an upcharge. This is nice when compared to other dining options around here, but I do wish it lived up to its name. Last time I was there, on the in-person menu it states smoothies automatically come with honey. This isn't noted on the online menu for every smoothie. Ordering online you're unable to make the smoothies vegan because there's no option to say no honey. Also, the sandwich called The Cali does not currently have its ingredients listed when you order online, but I think it is vegan too.

What a cute little bakery/coffee shop! We stumbled across Fika by chance and were so happy we did!…read more I was looking for a caffeine fix and spotted Fika. There is no dine in, but are a few tables outside of the place in case you want to stick around. No shade though; it's a grab and go sort of spot. The service was great! I forget the lady's name who was working but she was very helpful and friendly. The group ahead of us visited with her for a bit - definitely a small town feel! The cookies were AMAZING! Great flavor, huge, and moist on the inside - the guys in my group ate them up. Order online ahead of time for baked goods in COVID times with weekend pickup. Otherwise, whatever is left they have available for purchase. That happened to be the Sea Salt Dark Chocolate Chip cookies on the day I went - I bought 6! The coffee was good and strong. I ended up ordering an iced latte with oat milk and half vanilla based off of the lady's recommendation. The flavor was good and I was a lot more awake afterwards! I got a medium but could've gotten a small as I couldn't drink all of the caffeine in one go. Overall such a cute spot I'd highly recommend visiting!

Well, we felt over-caffeinated and hungry so plans cha fed and we decided to order lunch instead. After finishing our delicious meal, we ordered dinner to carry out. This cafe is a local gem. Totally different vibe than Contrast Coffee's which was modern, sleek and seemed to attract lots of younger folks. Contrast seemed more to be the place one might choose with just coffee. A sweet treat or something light with coffee. MJC has a very up-north, laid back, comfy feel. It beckons you to grab a table or comfy chair and stay a while. Its vibe might resonate with families, friend groups, seniors, artists and health conscious foodies. The menu offered so many choices: soup, salad, wraps, paninis and pizzas. Many choices in each category, all with the freshest of ingredients, combined creatively, focused on flavor and presented really well for such a casual place. It had a farm-to-table feel. Confident the sauces and dressings were made from scratch. We ordered two wraps and a salad to share and were warned that it might be too much food for two. It definitely would have been. Thankful for this tip. We shared a summer special Mad Hatter panini with chicken, mushrooms and provolone. It was amazing. The mushrooms were perfection. We also shared a Central salad which was so full of delightful add-in like cranberries and cashews. The salad dressing was wonderful. As an after thought, we decided to share a bowl of the soup of the day: chicken and dumplings. So full of chicken, veggies and small dumplings. Delish. We took home a cold club wrap for dinner and the Lynne Lu salad. The dishes were wrapped with such care. We really appreciated the friendly and knowledgeable staff. If we lived here, MJC would be a go-to spot for breakfast and brunch. The homemade desserts looked fabulous. Will need to return on another trip to this area to try them with a mocha which brought us to MJC's
