Good for organic food lovers Mani's Bakery to me is always inexplicably crowded (after going there). The bakery items I find to be somewhat tasteless and dry. However it's a good place to grab a healthy lunch on Main Street on a nice day. PROS: Nice patio CONS: Bakery items not that great
Always busy, but food is good Has a nice patio the food is very healthy. The service is good, but it is always crowded. It is a place where you can go when you are not in a rush and youâre willing to wait for a good strong cup of coffee and a delicious healthy meal. Inside you will also find some interesting shops that you can browse while you wait for your order.
The only place for baked goods without refined sugar and flour Mani's used to be much bigger at this Main Street location which it now shares with several other businesses. There are still lots of baked goods..notably the "Faux Nuts" (non-fried, natural donuts" and many yummy cakes and cookies made with hypo-allergenic flours and no refined sugar. Really delicious for "healthy" style baked goods. My sense is that the ownership must have changed a while back. Still a great resource though. The four stars instead of five is fo... read more
I rarely write bad reviews but this one is deserved. I have been to the Novel Café on quite a few occasions but I probably won’t go again – unless I have a LOT of time to spend there. The last few (5 or 6) times I walked in there, no employee acknowledged my presence. I was not offered a menu or water or anything. After waiting about 15 minutes, each time, I got up and walked out. Maybe they’re short-handed. I don’t know what the problem is but I have rarely walked into any kind of restaurant and not had some employee at lea... read more
Service here is comically slow, but the extensive menu of healthy items is worth the wait. Come for organic options galore.
*&^*ty's Bakery – Honestly, if I could give this place a negative star, I would. One star is even too good a review. Have had breakfast and lunch here a few times, each time hoping it would be better. The service is slow and incompetent. They are always out of something and then when the order finally comes, not only have you had to substitute for something else because they ran out, but there will always be something wrong ie. how your eggs are done, what kind of toast, etc. In addition to all this, the food is tasteless an... read more
Great Weekend Lunch Place – I like Mani's (outside seating specifically) because it is one of the places on Main Street where you can sit, relax, eat, and people watch. Though I had to wait quite awhile for an outside table- there was plenty of room inside, but it was stuffy and not air-conditioned) it was worth it: the pesto chicken sandwich was delicious and the servers were receptive to my specifics. I never felt forced or rushed while I read my book, especially for a warm Sunday afternoon. I will return!
worst service ever – the set up is sort of a ordering in line, and there are ten people behind the counter that suffer something worst then ADD. i was waiting and ordering and waiting and reordering and finally gave up - asked for my money and stormed out of this realm of utmost delirium. besides, the prices are outrageous for the simplistic menu.
