Had an excellent lunch here! The cafe was busy on a friday during lunch but not crowded, and the workers seemed to know several customers by name which was nice to see. Most of the customers in front of me purchased whole loaves of bread with their order and I was temtped to do the same.
I ended up getting a vanilla caramel latte that was excellent, and I also tried a chocolate covered cake with raspberry filling. The cake was very delicious and the filling was pleasant and added a nice light flavor. The star for me however was the tuna melt, it was a generously sized sandwich made with fresh baked bread and I was surprised by several rather large chunks of apple in the tuna that I was not expecting but it actually added a nice touch.
Overall very satisfied and I definitely plan on coming back. It's located right next to the library which is convenient since there were lots of free parking...
Read moreWas there 8/24 at around 4:30. The person at the cashier requires some more training. We were waiting at the front of the line to order and he (the only employee here) asked us if we had been helped yet. We clearly hadn’t. Once we ordered and waited for my coffee, he asked me repeatedly about my order when he took it and it was supposedly written on my cup. He asked me at least 3 times what I had ordered while I was waiting. Mine was the only drink getting made at this time. When it was done, we stayed waiting for our pastries, when again he asked if we needed anything else. He literally took our pastry order less than 5 minutes ago, and again we were the only people in line. When he gave us the bag, we were short 1 pastry. I don’t know if he was new or distracted, but I will be avoiding Pure Grain for a while. Food is okay, but bad service leaves bad taste in my mouth. Im going to...
Read moreI loved Pure Grain Cafe. Although it was my first time experiencing their cuisine, I am adding it to the 'go to' places I frequent. The sandwich I aquired was the Californian, and I ate every bite slowly to enjoy the crunch of the bacon and lightly toasted french roll. The sandwich was propertioned perfectly with all the delicious ingredients. And I must also say that the Gelato too was on point. I never knew it was supposed to be eaten with such a little spoon. The staff represented the Cafe well and were friendly and helpful. The prices were realistic for the great food they provide. The cafe has a beautiful patio facing downtown that allowed us to sit and people watch as we ate. I recommend not to be in a hurry to grab and go. They make the food in front of you and it takes time. This is not a fast food place, but it is worth the few moments it takes to...
