I love a good sandwich option and that is exactly what you'll find at Cheese & Coffee.This wasn't my first time to cheese & coffee but it was to this location, I'd only ever been to the uptown location and I liked this one better for sure.I ordered a spicy Italian sandwich with fries and it was stellar. Large portions and the service was great. The only thing I wasn't a huge fan of was the cookie we ordered but next time I'd opt for the cake that looked delicious.

I live nearby but work Uptown so it's rare I can eat at a M-F eatery downtown. Took a day off recently and this was my choice. Always delicious and reliable! I miss them being open on Saturdays but I know they have their other concept Seared to prep for.

I have heard nothing but "thumbs-up" for this little lunch place . . . so when my daughter and I stopped in for a quick lunch yesterday, I was disappointed. The service was friendly; the deco was homey and made you feel comfortable; and the lunch menu was extensive. So extensive that I had trouble deciding on which option I would choose. Everyone around me at the other tables seemed to be thoroughly enjoying their meals; that just made choosing harder. What to choose? What to choose? I finally settled on the Fruit & Cheese plate. Fruit salad, a wedge of brie, sliced cheeses & a croissant. How could I go wrong? Well, it was a poor choice yesterday. Huge mound of cut up fruit: three kinds of melon, plus pineapple; a croissant that was fairly fresh, but without butter or any condiment; four slices of sandwich cheese and no brie. Brie is what sold me on the Fruit & Cheese plate. The fruit was overripe. The honeydew melon was the first bite I took. My Mother taught me to never take food out of your mouth at the table - unless there is a bone in it. Well, no bone . . . but not good. Took it out. Then I tried a piece of pineapple . . . it too did not have any bones, but was overripe. But the honeydew had to go. My children tell me I am too nice. I don't speak up when I should. I don't like to make waves. I am not inclined to complain when I should. But they tell me . . . and they are right . . . how will a business ever fix a problem, or keep from serving the next customer with something that is not acceptable?Normally I wouldn't write a review on Cheese & Coffee. I would just go back and give them another try. I have heard too many good things about their menu, location and service. But, when the server picked up the plate, she commented on the fact that the large quantity of fruit was still there. My daughter, who has more chutzpah than I do, said that the fruit was overripe. And when we went up to the front to pay, they took off the price of our drinks. If I had been bolder and told them in the beginning my concerns, maybe we wouldn't have paid $9.50 for some dry bread, overripe fruit & sliced sandwich cheese.So . . . this review is my way of attempting to get some chutzpah of my own and also to APOLOGIZE to the restaurant for not being honest about my disappointment. I will come back. I will try something else on the menu. I will update this review. It is a cute little place, close to Old Town, great service and a great menu. Go try it and let me know.

This is my first time here. I ordered a Ruben that came with many choices of salads or soups. I got the green Chile soup. It was the right amount of spiciness and delicious. The Ruben was also delicious, grilled perfectly. I will definitely come back.

A wonderful place for lunch! Great sandwiches and reasonable prices! Love the Chelsea sandwich and Ruben with turkey. They also have the best blue cheese dressing for their salads. Good service and great atmosphere. Check it out; it's worth a trip!

Absolutely one of my favorite spots in town to get a delicious sandwich ! The food is great! It's fresh, and I've been here about 1000 times and never once has it been bad! This place is clean inside and the staff are friendly and know what they're doing ! I will continue to go here when ever I crave a bomb sandwich. I usually get a Ruben or the French dip :)

Have always enjoyed this place! During today's times they were super friendly! Called in an order...Picked up! I ate the ABQ wrap with a side salad. Amazingly fresh veggies! Everything was delicious. I also got a slice of German chocolate cake. Support local!

I found this lunch Cafe on Yelp and since the reviews were mostly positive, my wife and I decided to give it a shot.The reviews were right on. We initially were a bit disappointed since we sat at our table for about five minutes before our presence was even acknowledged. The server apologized for the delay and in all fairness we came in just after lunch and they were still pretty busy.My wife ordered the Patty Melt with potato salad and I had the Cubano with Green Chili Chicken soup.The food arrived quite quickly, which alleviated our initial concern. My wife loved the Patty Melt although she said that the potato salad was just average. The Cubano sandwich was great with plenty of meat (I could only eat half the sandwich - the rest came home with me for lunch the next day). The Green Chili Chicken soup was outstanding! Just the right amount of spiciness.The menu listed a variety of sandwiches - many of which you won't find in most cafes.We definitely will be back (often) working our way through the wide variety. (Heck with the diet.)The prices were very fair considering what you got.
