This place is not really good anymore on top of their prices always seeming like they're rising. I only come for breakfast, came for lunch one time for a chicken cheesesteak which was horrible. Noticed that the quality of the breakfast burritos do not match the nearly $11 fee, last one had last week was the final straw. Completely flavorless. Nice people, but imo, not worth the expensive price. read more

Good food from a hidden spot. Have to look around to find the actual Cafe but the food cooked to order with good sized portions. It would be nice to have a few extra Korean staples on the menu. read more

A little hard to find but definitely worth the search. The menu is a mix of American, Korean, and Greek. Lots of options for breakfast and lunch. After looking at pictures on yelp, I came in hopes of getting the Bibimbap. Unfortunately it is not on the normal menu. I opted for the hummus chicken wrap. Very large and flavorful despite the cafe being out of sprouts (my favorite). I will be coming here often! read more

There's a sign out on the road, then no other. There are a couple of buildings that share lots once you turn, and luckily I just guessed which one was correct. You need to stumble down the halls of the leftmost building until you find yet another tiny print-out sign. At the end of that hall on the right, is the Uptown Cafe. The menu is pretty robust and varied. Wow, even a decent breakfast menu! The setting is quiet and cozy. A good hidden gem that others don't know about, so you can grab a bite here undisturbed before a meeting in this office park. I had the chicken avocado sandwich. The menu said it came with sprouts and mayo, so I ordered it sans mayo. They had to ask me a second time later if I wanted mayo. Derp. They also put tomato on it, which I didn't want, but had no idea it was going to be part of the deal. They forgot the sprouts. I think they just made up a menu and then actually wing it when they make the food. What we didn't realize is which sandwiches were traditional, cold 'plain' sandwiches, and which would be grilled/toasted up and soaked in -- I think it was butter? Seems like the general approach here is to slather both pieces of bread (which they do offer several varieties of, so that's good) in butter, so you have a very crispy, hot and greasy/heavy sandwich at the end. The wrapping paper for my sandwich was soaked, as were areas of the bread. I like knowing Uptown is there for me when I need it, and it's convenient in an area that doesn't have much more than a shady truck stop and a Subway in a gas station. Regardless of what mood I'm in, there'll be something here for me, and the prices aren't too bad. I like that it's quiet, and I can just grab coffee and get some work done before meetings. But they really gotta step up the game a bit, get orders right and make it clear how the food is going to be prepared in advance. read more

Come on guys, resist the urge to cut corners. Past few visits have produced sandwiches with insufficient amounts of meat. I understand that supplies cost money, but it also might cost you a customer. It is like they came out with guns blazin' at the beginning but now that they have a solid customer base they are starting to slip. read more

Bibimbap Yummm! My co-workers and I stopped by for lunch today. Great portion size. My bibimbap had spring mix, rice, bulgogi, crab meat, carrots, cabbage, cucumbers, and topped with an egg. Also included my Korean ketchup (gochujang). Very filling. Service was pretty quick. We ate there and were back to work in half hour. read more

A little tricky to find. The food was so delicious! The staff were helpful and polite. A great mix of breakfast foods, and lunches (wraps, panini's and salads.) Generous portions at reasonable prices. A definite "go to ". read more

The owner is wonderfully polite and the food is delicious. Items are reasonable pricing and well within normal range. I love LOVE the snack options. They have everything from gummies to wasabi peas to gluten free snacks. Great selection and nice service! :) read more

Uptown is a hidden gem. I eat there for breakfast and lunch and have found several things on the menu that I really enjoy. For lunch, try the Tuna Melt, the Steak and Cheese, the Chicken Caesar Wrap or my personal favorite... the sandwich with artichokes, chicken cheese and a special spread (I'm drawing a blank on the name at the moment). Their breakfast wraps are also very good. French fries are the thick, steak-cut fries and when they cook them long enough, come out tasting great. Like most Korean deli's, they have a solid selection of snack food and candies. My main complaint is that they no longer sell the fruit smoothies any more and can't seem to keep the juices stocked as fast as I would like. read more

I wouldn't go out of my way to eat here, but it's a solid lunch option if you're in the area already. They changed management a few months ago and the food has really improved. The fries are definitely from frozen but they're really good. Prices are reasonable. They are also incredibly nice. Side note: Because of their logo, for a long time I thought the name was LP Town Cafe. read more

My wife and I ate here in the morning. I had a Veggie Quesadilla and my wife had an Veggie Omelette. Our food was very tasty but unfortunately I got a "stomach ache", and this food was the only thing I ate that day. My wife was good though. read more

Once we found it we were happy. A nice little place to get something healthy. Lots of good green stuff in the sandwiches.

Not sure I ever would have found this without a co-worker showing me. Anyway I'm glad I did find it, because they have great sandwhiches. I'll be back over and over, very happy with it! read more

Had a great tuna on multigrain sandwich today. I'm always struck by the fact their food always tastes like someone's mom made it...very homemade-y, fresh, excellent portion sizes... Like I said, homemade-y. :) My company just moved into LG4, so I've had a lot of feedback from coworkers as well. Across the board, everyone enjoys lunch from LG4. Have heard the b'fasts are good, too, so I'll have to give them a shot for that soon. read more

A great little deli perfect for breakfast or lunch. All of the wraps I've tried are great, with the bulgogi wrap being my fave. They also have great, inexpensive breakfast sandwiches. read more

Convenient lunch spot where i ate every day while working At a nearby office building. The lady who runs the place is vey nice and is eager to please. Most items are less than $8 and she serves sandwiches, wraps and some Mexican and asian dishes. Cannot say anything about the hot food, a i stuck with the basics, sandwiches or wraps. Really liked the Turkey on a roll and the wraps were good though i would suggest turkey instead of the chicken ( pre-cooked and dried out). Will be back during next trip back. read more

Love this hidden gem. The food is very good and the prices are fair. The owner/manager/cash register is one of the nicest people you will ever meet. Somehow she remembers all of her customer's names! It's a nice touch for a family run business. My only complaint is that the owner clearly needs help with the day to day operations. Basically she needs to hire one more person. When the place gets busy she is very flustered and is trying to take orders, hand out orders and keep her kitchen staff in line. You never like to see the manager get upset and during the daily lunch hour rush you can't miss it. read more

Interior is so cozy! Employee are so nice. Taste is sooooo good!! I love it!! read more

Price was great but food quality was lacking. Burito had more rice then.meat lacked veggies and the meat lacked flavor

Deli is nice if you don't want to leave the building. I have only eaten the Chicken Caesar wrap (no red peppers). Although it's good and tasty, I rarely eat there. The prices are quite steep for me. For a wrap and small fountain drink, it's over $8; to me, too expensive. If you need a quick bite, don't have anything else to eat and don't mind the price, I recommend it. read more

Good food and amazing people. A popular favorite. Mina is the **BEST** and will remember you by name. Love this place for meals or snacks.

Employees are extremely kind and the food was pretty good too. I had the chicken Chipotle wrap and enjoyed it. It is tucked away in an adjacent office building so it was slightly difficult to find and the prices were a little steep for a simple wrap and drink but overall it is nice for a quick lunch. read more

Not the easiest place to find...but worth it. In commercial office building. Very friendly service and made a special to order breakfast for me at a very fair price. Nice atmosphere and music. Highly recommended read more

when you need an affordable lunch, and that mom and pop feel. I don't know about you but i get tired of chains. When i need a break from fast food but still need a simple lunch i head here. its located in an office building and you enter from the side. the burgers are simple are good and simple. Breakfast wraps are big an filling. They are Korean owned so you can also find daily specials ranging from rice dishes to bulgogi. I recommend you call in your order first because the can get a little backed up at peak hours. read more

apart from the lack of a few ingredients i requested for my omlette the food definitely has a home cooked feel, fresh and delicious. for breakfast it gets a thumbs up! read more

Very excellent food! No matter what I order, it always tastes good and I don't go away hungry. They are so nice, there. Really good customer service. Great, relaxing atmosphere where you can eat and look out across the parking lot at the pond. I don't think people know they exist, yet. Their signs are small along the road, and they are on the 1st floor of an office building by the pond. Their breakfast is great, too! Very convenient to Rt. 28 and the airport. read more

Visiting from out of town, walked over a mile to find this cafe. It was worth it. Do not be put off by the location (1st floor of office building) the food was great. I had the Grilled chicken avocado club. Yum, the chicken and onions were fresh cooked on the grill and there was plenty of flavor. Give it a try you will like it. read more

Just ate the best French Dip here. I would recommend this place to anyone. Great find.

Love this little cafe. The owner/lady at the cash register is very polite. Good food options. Lip smacking sandwiches,wraps, salads and quesadilla. Healthy and hygienic. Would definitely recommend anyone looking for a quick grab. read more

As other people have already mentioned, the food here is ok but the customer service is awful! The guy who handles the register is very angry and bitter. It seems like he just wants customers money and does not care about customer service at all (e.g, gets upset when customers wants food prepared a certain way). read more
