Be Well Bakery And Cafe — Restaurant in Lower Moreland Township

DON'T EVEN TRY TO BRING YOUR LAPTOP HERE (and give your money to places who want your business): I've been coming to Be Well for years and never had this experience. I was by myself at a table for two (as there was no room at the counter) eating and drinking coffee while working on my laptop when the owner (I assume) came over, interrupted my work, and informed me that I had to leave and go to their auxiliary location "two doors down" where they want "computer people", despite having spent my money like any other customer and actively eating (while they seem just fine with conversing couples taking up tables for an hour or two sans laptops).

This secondary location has no food/drink service, uncomfortably harsh fluorescent lights, zero atmosphere, and near silence (with almost zero customers). It's like working in an empty fast food restaurant or day care center. Incredibly rude, incredibly demeaning, and unforgivable. I had to get up and leave the secondary location because it was extremely non-conducive to working (and my eyes hurt from the lighting). For the price of me sitting at a table for an hour (with food I purchased, and still eating, and plans to purchase more), they have lost a customer.

There are plenty of other cafes in the area who are not rude and dismissive of people who enjoy working in public and purchase food throughout their stay. I am happy to give my money to people who want me around. You should too.

UPDATE: It's no longer silent as there are now loud and uncontrolled children loudly playing in here.

UPDATE 2: Now I am alone here, just me the uncomfortable chairs, and the harsh lighting. If I wanted to sit alone and work, I could stay at home (where the food and coffee is free). This is simply off-putting and humiliating....

I've been going to this location for a few years now and nothing has changed, which is good and bad. The food is consistently good and I'm willing to pay the extra for what taste like fresh food and is delicious.

The bad thing is that the service is always slow and the place is always under staffed. Waiting in line for 15 minutes and another 15 minutes for food literally takes up my entire lunch break.

Now, the solution to this would be to order ahead and pick it up but that's rarely possible, as in 1 out of every 5 visits. The app doesn't work and never has. Ordering food online in 2025 is the easiest thing to do, I can order a sodering set from Home Depot on Doordash as I write this.

You may now be asking yourself why don't I just call ahead and order over the phone? Well, the phone has to be on the hook to do that. Around lunch time, usually daily, the phone is taken off the hook and there is only a busy signal, usually because they are too busy with the line of people to keep up with the phones.

After years of experiencing this issue with no resolve, I am flabbergasted that the owners decided to open a second location than fix these issues. Fixing these issues alone would probably bring in more revenue then opening a second location that is barely even open.

The food is great, the management is subpar, and the ownership is going to lose out on a perfect place because of their unwillingness to improve on the business.

And just to prove my point, read the reviews and notice how none of them get a response from the owner or even a staff member. The lack of attention to customers...
