Cute little Restaurant with amazing inexpensive meals and the bakery is just wonderful. I highly…read morerecommend!

Been here a few times, just now getting around to a review. Came in at 12:30 on a Friday afternoon…read morefor lunch. Was seated at a booth that was just vacated by the previous party. Outside of the bar, there wasn't an open seat in the joint. Was promptly served a Diet Pepsi and ordered the chicken Parmesan. The waitress was very friendly, fast and attentive. The chicken parm was a perfect size for lunch, and the whole meal was a bargain at $15. The chicken itself was very good, nice and crispy, though not overly cheesy or saucy. The side of spaghetti complemented it well, but the red sauce was more of a tomato topping than a spaghetti sauce. I'm not sure a side of sauce would have changed things, just very thick and not very saucy. The flavor was okay, and on par for a diner. Also got a side of the cucumber salad which was outstanding! Leaving was a bit challenging. There were several old biddies at the cash register selecting bakery items like kids in a candy store. Maybe they were there by design, as I ended up getting a raspberry coffee cake they had on the counter (which was very good). The place is cash only and I needed to make change to tip my waitress. By the time I got back to my table, there was someone already sitting there enjoying her coffee. Since there were only 2 waitresses, it wasn't hard to make sure my server got her just deserves for a job well done. The place was as crowded when I left at 1:00 as it was when I arrived. Also, I'm 60 years old and had to be the youngest in the place by about 20 years!

This was a great surprise. Unlike some places that say they do crepes, these folks DO crepes. I got…read morea peanut butter and banana crepe (the Elvis, if you will) and my son got Nutella. A big point in their favor - most places put the peanut butter on when the crepe is still hot, which creates a messy, liquidy mess. These folks do not. The peanut butter was thick, rich, and creamy all throughout. Big time props for that little attention to detail. My only regret is not being hungry enough to also get a savory treat. It's counter service, but they encourage you to grab a menu, look it over, and order. Great. Advice. It's a nice little spot with WiFi and underrated coffee. If I were local, I'd make this a regular thing.

I needed to go get my own beverage from the cashier. Believe it or not, We bussed our own table of dirty dishes. No follow up was provided asking how our entrees were. The restaurant was not busy, so there's no excuse for the poor service. The soup had one tiny piece of chicken in its broth. The bowl was filled approximately one fourth of the way up. The crepe was bland. This lunchtime adventure was a total bust. Disappointing. Plus (The desserts in the case looked old & dried out).

Charming restaurant, many breakfast choices and breakfast drinks. A little crowded Sunday brunch…read moretime, but that's not unusual. I loved the omelet-- I told the waitress that it was so good the chef must be French, and she said that she relayed that to him, and he said "well, I am French." Accessibility: it's accessible, but a few comments. No steps to enter, but the door is a bit narrow --your wheelchair should fit through, but not much extra. Not an automatic door; you'll need somebody to open it for you (shouldn't be a problem; the hostess station has a clear view.). Bathrooms are accessible, a bit of a twisty corridor to get to them, and if someone is at the table closest to the bathrooms you may need to ask them to slide out of the way. Toilets do have grab bars.

I really thought Sips n Such was just a coffeehouse. I don't drink coffee, so I haven't paid…read moreattention to any hip coffee spots. I'm so glad to have been wrong! Table for one please! I stopped in last minute while out running errands. I was seated immediately on a busy Saturday late morning and greeted right after. The menu is fantastic. Great options, wonderful seasonal specials. (Short rib omelette?! Hell yes!) I wanted basic, so I built my own omelette with a side of bacon and a hot tea. They have a great drink menu- coffee, specialty cocoas, tea, cocktails, mocktails, and refreshers. I was on my way to see a friend, so I grabbed us each a refresher to go. My meal was out in just minutes. Expertly prepared, fresh and delicious. Also a very nice portion. Sourdough toast was excellent. Generous filling for the omelette too. The only drawback was a common plight for strip mall restaurants- entrance that opens straight into the dining room. No foyer or vestibule means the cold January air nipped you in the face every time that front door opened. On cold days, get a table in the back. I'd like to highlight the mocktail concept, too. I often want a spirited drink but don't imbibe booze often. I love that they have offerings. The entire staff was so nice and helpful. I can't wait to come back!

Cafe Blanc is absolutely adorable. One of the most gorgeous and insta-worthy coffee shops I've ever…read morebeen to. It's also much larger than I expected and has a lovely patio out front with lots of tables. They have a large food menu with typical cafe eats as well as dinner entrees. I came for lunch on a Friday and got a tiramisu iced coffee (very good), as well as a mushroom crepe. The crepe could have been a little hotter, but it was tasty and the drink was good. Can't wait to go back to try more drinks and pastries.

I arrived and met 3 friends here on a weekday morning in May 2026 to work. We (2 guys and 2 ladies)…read moreall work remote so it was fun to meetup. We all visited Cafe Blanc for the first time and loved our experience especially the large (free) parking lot. We sat on the 2nd level towards the back. QUICK REVIEW (read this if you don't want to read this whole review): Try the potato pancakes. Great food and service. Slightly more elevated cafe. Busy during peak morning/afternoon hours and most likely less busy in the evenings. I have not been in the evening yet. Free parking lot and free wifi. FOOD - there are lots of food options to choose from for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. They have sandwiches, salads, pizza, and pastries. I arrived around 10:20am so I wanted breakfast. I read that the croissants are okay but I haven't tried them. I ordered the potato pancakes, blueberry hibiscus tea (hot) as a dine-in order plus a slice of almond cake as a takeout order. The potato pancakes ($19) was delicious. It comes with 3 thick potato pancakes topped an egg on the center and with bacon bits spread all over. The potato pancakes also come with sour cream on the side which I didn't realize so I moved that to the side of my plate because I don't like or eat sour cream. I would order the potato pancakes again as a savory breakfast item but $19 is a little steep for the price. The blueberry hibiscus tea ($4) was a refreshing drink served on a mug. If you enjoy the combination of white tea leaves, rose hips, natural blueberry, and hibiscus then this tea is for you. I also ordered an almond cake slice ($6) but to go. The almond cake is a light and tasty cake with sliced/shaved almonds on top. SERVICE -- Friendly. Me and one of the shorter female employee had a nice laugh when I went down later in the day to order an almond cake. They started getting busy when I arrived after 10am on a weekday but I was able to walk right up to the front counter to order. The buzzer handed to me buzzed probably within 15-20 mins and I went down to get my order. I believe the tea that I ordered was ready first. Overall, I'll definitely be back. Prices are higher than a traditional cafe. The plus is that there is free wifi so it's a perfect spot to work on your laptop. The tables are big and the chairs are comfortable. **** GOAL of 250 reviews in 2026 - 99/250 total reviews in 2026 - 940 total Yelp reviews - Reviewed on 27 May 2026
