Reviews
Quaint little Cafe that's not a brand name restaurant. Food was pretty good and just right servings. The menu offers some healthy options and traditional egg breakfast plates, sandwiches, panini's, wraps and fancy avocado toast! Employees are very friendly. Love the bakery items offered like fresh, large, tall cinnamon rolls, scones, croissants, brownies and more.
It’s refreshing you order at the counter, sit down, and they bring your stuff to do (no extra lines waiting at a pick up area). Lots of seating options. No vegan pastries - would like to see those added to the menu. There is one vegan item on the menu that looks good but I didn’t try it. Got the americano - it was ok (not the best not the worst). Staff is friendly. Good environment. Would definitely come back!
The breakfast Burrito, hot matcha latte, mocha, and blueberry lemon poppyseed scone were sooo delicious! Definitely on the pricier side of breakfast but so worth it! portion sizes and service were great! Perfect for a cold, rainy day
Love this bakery/cafe! One of my favorites. Delicious- and healthy- food, great menu, friendly people, tasty coffee and sweet treats (including gluten free- I've heard the GF selection is delicious.) My faves: All Kale Caesar (it's really good- do not be thrown off by all that kale ;) the Capri panini, the Avocado toast (so good!) the lattes, and their cinnamon rolls (outrageously tasty)... but everyone who I've eaten there with raves about the whole menu. Highly recommend!
Was excited to come here for brunch but customer service changed that feeling. Showed up for the first time with 3 other people and was told we can look at the restaurant style menus to see what we wanted. We walked over to an empty table since you have to order at the counter and wanted to see what to get. With many options on the menu it would have been great to take some time to see what would be best to get. Immediately after we sat down though we were promptly told by a male employee that we can’t reserve tables, that it’s a house rule and we need to order first. We walked to the counter, waited behind one person, placed our order and then walked back the same spot we were at before. I’m confused on what this place wants to be…. Do they want to be a quick place to eat or a sit down location. I could see if it’s very busy but there were a bit of seats available inside as well as outside. It just seems that common sense was not used in this interaction.
Regarding the food, I decided to get the Avocado toast and it was fine. Was a little pricy for one slice(decent size) toast with tomatoes on top of the avocado.
Overall I don’t plan on coming back because I’m not sure what this place is trying to be and there are other breakfast/brunch options that are either cheaper, or similar price with a more streamlined experience.
It was delicious! The restaurant is really cute, bright, and clean. The waitresses were quick and friendly. They were really busy and when I started eating it was obvious why! Thought and care were put into this food! While a little pricey, you will not regret this splurge!
Perfect breakfast burrito 🌯 taste healthy and delicious. I substitute the ham with avocado. It was worth every penny and will go back.
Only neg about the place is being very crowded in weekends.
Stopped here for a quick lunch with my hubby after a doctor appointment nearby. Not being familiar with the area, I checked yelp (of course!), and was drawn to Nutmeg Cafe by all the great reviews and the cute name!
The food and bakery options all looked amazing, organic, sustainable, with some great gluten free options. We just beat the lunch crowd...you order at the counter, then find a table. We had the Cobb wrap and the Capri sandwich, and shared a cup of the soup of the day - coconut curry.
Our food was brought out very fast! The Cobb wrap was superb - LOTS of thinly sliced turkey, super crisp bacon (my real test of any Cobb), egg, blue cheese, tomato, aoli, and just the right small amount of romaine - all wrapped in a lightly warmed/grilled spinach wrap. The soup was so amazingly flavorful - I can't wait to attempt a copycat recipe at home. While Carl enjoyed his Capri sandwich, it didn't look nearly as packed with ingredients as mine. The homemade chips were thick, crunchy and addictive.
We sat outside and although it was a hot day, the overhead and side shading made it quite comfortable. Service was great, both at ordering and delivering of food.
I would definitely return to Nutmeg...and next time, I'd save room for dessert and a special drink!
