The Flinderstreet Cafe — Restaurant in Chino

This is a very nice place. It's clean; has a contemporary, trendiness to it; and the food is very good. We had the Philly Cheese steak sandwich and the quality of the food was excellent! The bread is homemade, soft and delicious, almost a biscuity texture to it--a nice change from the normal, tough bread most subs are made with. The meat was very tender, not fatty in the least, and there was plenty of cheese. The sandwich was large enough for my husband and I to split... I would say 6-8" long, and it comes with a salad or chips. The salad wasn't the typical iceberg bagged salad that some restaurants use either. It had a nice variety of greens to it. And they brought us complimentary baby chocolate chip cookies. We had purchased a brownie for dessert, so the friends we were with had the cookies. The brownie was on the cakey side, so not really my taste, as I like them more of the fudge consistency like box mixes are. But it was large and had lots of chocolate. They have bottles of Mexican Coke - the way Coke was originally made with real sugar instead of corn syrup - so this "real thing" Coke lover was happy about that! The service was good, they have a decent variety of items from which to choose, even italian dinner-type meals if you don't want a sandwich. All in all, a great little surprise! We'll be back, no doubt, and we'll be telling our...

Great sandwich place to go to in the area! I didnt even know this part of the plaza existed. Each time I came I only knew about Target, but didnt know there was this cafe as well as a gym right next to it. I decided to write a review after a few times, and I can say my experience was great. I ordered to go each time, and you can call ahead to place your order. The place is not that big , but there are a few seats inside

Food So from my experience you order what you want, and usually you get a side with your order, at least with the sandwiches. They have pasta too, but I have yet to try it

What we did order was Classic Ham and Cheese Philly Cheese Veggie’s Delight Italian Mozzarella Toscana soup

I guess it just depends on what you feel like having, but I would say the sandwiches are all pretty good. I particularity like the toscana soup even if they have chicken noodle as well. You can choose to have sides like salad, chips, or even other items upon request. Vegetarians wondering if the Veggie’s Delight was good, according to my wife, she thought it was great!

Wanted to note that this place also has coffee as well, so if lunch and coffee is what you want, it can be that one stop shop. The prices are reasonable too. Looking forward to our next...

This is my second time visiting to The Flinderstreet Cafe and I feel comfortable enough to leave a review. First, let me talk about the atmosphere because it's a Cafe so the looks of it is very important, when you walk in the door the decor feels comfy and homey with pictures of their items and a easy menu to read for the rest of the items, also TONS of live plants to add some personality, BUT there is some imperfections. They have a corner with a couch that looks kind of beat up, not sure if anyone would care but I do,  the windows are also filled with graffiti although its not their fault, but it's still a turn off. Moving on to the actual food, I ordered the mocha latte and Cafe latte which were both good, it wasn't like star bucks where you cant tell your drinking coffe. Here you can actually taste your coffe and it's GOOD. I ordered some food as well, the breakfast panini, chicken pesto panini, and the Italian panini which were all good but not GREAT. They all have the same feeling where I thought something was missing to really make it perfect. Overall The Flinderstreet Cafe is a cute "mom and pop" vibes shop that I will continue to visit, it's not perfect but definitely worth trying...
