You have to go through a security check and thankfully, the workers and security are very nice! You take the stairs up to the cafe. Greeted by a kind worker and ordered the grilled turkey with wheat and pepper jack sandwich. Also added jalapeños and avocado. Paid for the order and waited. The worker was kind and easy to talk to. Nice little place. There's a bunch of other stuff too like coffee and their breakfast menu looks great! Sat at a chair and waited a short time and the nice worker brought it out and he wished me a good day handing it over! =)Lunchtime! The grilled turkey pepper jack sandwich with jalapeños and avocado was fresh and tasty! I had half and it was a good amount. It's pretty much like a sandwich you would get to put together from the grocery store, but still good!Good service and sandwich! Recommended!

If you don't mind passing through security and taking all metal off your body, this may be a fun and interesting visit. Originally I caught some pictures of this place sometime ago and headed over to the address which I had no idea was inside a federal courthouse. The day that I first tried to eat here, it was closed so I didn't go through. I happen to be over at double tree for a Medicare Broker's meeting and was thinking about eating someplace I hadn't tried before...It seems that all the parking downtown is now electronic and handled through your phone. I liked that. The federal courthouse and its grounds are stunning. The budget for construction must've been gigantic. Each detail and element in planning and construction is of the highest levels. The way each tile fits together, the textured cladding, the embedding of metal, glass and transitions between various materials. Even the stairway to the second level is a work of art. It is big, open, roomy....quiet. Just the way I like my environments... And it looks like every penny of the $165 million dollars spent on it!You'll need to pass through a phalanx of security, answer various questions and go through the metal detector. No doubt, that keeps beggars and homeless out... :)The café is on the second floor and carries a nice variety of items. The menus are located in completely different parts which is not ideal. The breakfast menu is on one wall and the lunch menu on a completely different wall 15 feet away from it. It looks like there's some daily specials and food here is priced like it other venues. You're not coming here for some cheap deal.. It seems like they were only two people working here. A gentleman at the register taking orders and one woman in the kitchen making the food. And it's delish!I ordered a tuna melt, extra tomato, add onions and pickles, add avocado. I think I blew it when they asked me if I wanted mayo on the bread. I should've realized that the mixture of tuna already has mayo in it and left it that way.. It was a bit juicier than it might have been otherwise but still delicious. Unlike other places, the filling was actually HOT, things melted. The sourdough bread was perfectly toasted providing a wonderful texture. And although the sandwich was sloppy, it was generously portioned and delicious.I ate directly outside on the mezzanine where there were dozens of tables with beautiful views out into the atrium. It was serene and there is no claustrophobia or crowds to contend with. GOOD! Like anywhere, if you go you'll probably want to get your timing right so you're not going at the peak... All the food in the pictures looks fantastic and that's what drew me here, compelled me, MADE me come! It was an unconventional venue and the stars aligned in proximity for my vis.....-G

Ah, I love it here! I work in the Robert E. Coyle Courthouse & will stop by the cafe when I'm too lazy to walk across the street lol but to be fair, my lunch is only 30 minutes. Anywho....Alex is awesome - he will greet you once you walk in & take your order. He knows me but name now & knows exactly how I like my BLT sandwich lol!! & Martha is the best! Her food is delicious. She has a daily special that usually includes a drink & sometimes chips or fries. She also has a soup of the day. I wish I had pictures of all the yummy food I've had here, but I'm usually always too hungry to snap a pic. I did however snap a picture of her southwestern chicken wrap which was sooo flavorful! It had chicken, lettuce, corn salad, tortilla chips, cheese, drizzled in a chipotle style sauce...all wrapped up & grilled lightly in a spinach tortilla wrap. Bomb.com *If you ever stop by - try out her meatloaf. I personally haven't tried it yet because it's always sold out by the time I get to the cafe - but my coworkers rave about it!!

Great cafe in the federal courthouse. The breakfast burritos are really good. Chorizo is my favorite. They also have rotating specials that adds variety. They had a Banh Mi sandwich this time and it was fresh with really good pork. The sauce on the side gave it that extra punch!

Listen this place serves up some excellent food, and with kindness at that. For a smaller restaurant situated in the federal Courthouse they do a lot with what they have. The staff are friendly, remember people in a genuine way, and have always made adjustments if needed. It is a great place that gives me a nice break in my day with the energy to keep going.

Tastes like homemade breakfast but to get to the cafe is a bit of a hassle since you have to go inside a secured building where they check you.

This place is literally the best spot downtown to eat. I am soooo glad they are open after COVID so I can get their awesome daily specials!

Good food and can't beat the prices. The price did up go a little, but still can't be beat. Love that they have daily specials and that you can call ahead your order. You do have to pass through the court house security to get in the building though, so be prepared. They do breakfast 6am-11am & lunch 11am-2pm and take phone in orders.
