I was too excited to eat at this place- and when we finally made time to go, it was a disappointment. We were the only ones standing and waiting to be seated. The girl behind the counter said, give me a few minutes and walked away. We waited for about 20 minutes until the busboy came to us and asked if we were picking up or eating in. We were seated a soon as he helped and we wondered why we were just left standing there... the busboy gave us menus and served us coffee. The same girl from behind the counter/ waitress came and said, give me a few minutes and I'll come take your order... we just sat there. I had to get up to ask for creamer at the counter since our table didn't have any... went back to the table and waited... 20 minutes went by and nothing. My husband finally got irritated and decided that we leave. The service and attention are horrible! The place wasn't full so I still can't understand why we were treated this way. We won't be back- that's for sure. As soon as we left we went to eat at Johnnys Pamcakes down the street and the food and service were everything!

We went Mary's Market for the first time, it is a bit confusing when you go in, the door on the side closest to State St takes you into a sit down restaurant with full table service, the entrance on the other side takes you into a counter service type restaurant. We entered the counter service door and walked through to the table service area. They share the same menu it's just one side you have a waitress who delivers everything to you the other side you order at the counter and get your own drinks, silverware and such. There were several things on the menu that looked good so we tried several things.One ordered a Cubano sandwich which came with 1 side, so caprese pasta salad was chosen. The Cubano was not like any I have had which is fine however the pork was not a slice of pork it was a pile of meat that tasted like dark meat turkey, it was supposed to have stone ground mustard which i had one little tiny dot on one side so it seemed rather dry. The caprese salad was very good and really unique. We ordered a cup of chicken soup, which I would not do again as it cost $6.29 and had 2 noodles, 1 little piece of chicken the rest was celery carrots and a very spicy broth. The other meal ordered was a tuna melt. The tuna melt was very good, made well with a perfect ratio of tuna to bread, that sandwich also came with your choice of 1 side so steak fries were ordered.

The service was great, staff was so attentive and the food came out quickly. My husband and I ordered omelets and they were phenomenal. I ordered the café miel and it was so delicious. We are visiting from Arizona but we would definitely make it a point to come back next time we are in town.

We stopped for lunch about 1:30pm at Mary's Market on McFarland in Rockford. Sandwich and salad were outstanding! Desserts were also good, but a bit pricey and the staff were very friendly. The restaurant itself, including the tables and bathroom were dirty with probably eight tables with dishes stacked all over them. Watched an employee use the same damp towel over and over to clean a few tables so customers could sit down. After we left, wondered how sanitary the kitchen was where our food was prepared.

After driving past this business frequently, I decided to look up what it offered and then stop in. The name doesn't really imply the full scope of the offerings here and that's a shame, as it's a fantastic little restaurant and bakery/coffee shop. We went for breakfast. I ordered an omelette with Gouda and pesto and my friend ordered the southwest . The food was delicious! Tasted very fresh and homemade including the bread. We also picked out some pastries to go. I am very impressed with everything we tried. I'm a little horrified that this high of quality of pastry is within minutes of my house. Lol They offer breakfast, lunch and dinner as well as high quality pastry and coffee. I plan to try dinner there soon. Stop in! You won't be disappointed.

I have been here many times as a long-standing Rockford restaurant institution. I have not however been here in many years. My girlfriend suggested let's go out and get a bite to eat for lunch, and I thought I would introduce her to Mary's Market as I've had some good food here.What a disappointment! Huge disappointment. starting with service, we were seated after we asked to be seated, they weren't busy at all but no one seemed to see us standing there for a while-wlaked right past us a bunch-HELLO?! It took 15 or 20 minutes before I had to get the attention of someone to see if we had a waitress. Five minutes later she finally came over. Not a good start and it just went downhill from there .My gal ordered the chicken pot pie. It was dry, flavorless, and we had to return it and ask for something else. It couldn't be eaten, it was really bad. I had a Reuben sandwich and longed for a bowl of their French onion soup which was always fabulous. The sandwich size is about half of what I recall, it would've been a nice half sandwich, but not a whole sandwich for the money. I asked for extra Swiss cheese. I didn't get any. It had hardly any. Maybe one slice of corned beef, small sandwich, hardly any good ingredients, not good at all.The French onion soup? Massive disappointment. The recipe has changed, it also was barely flavorless but at least it was hot. Must've had tons of salt I was excruciatingly thirsty all day afterwards. I have enjoyed this place in the past. I do not think I'll ever go here again, it wasn't worth the money, it wasn't worth the wait, and I had to apologize to my girlfriend about the experience. not at all recommended. And there was a day I would've been enthusiastically telling people to go there. Not any more.

I wish I could give this zero stars because the service here was absolutely terrible!!! the food was sub par. The ambience was okay. the waitress passed our table several times and just looked but didn't accommodate us at all. we actually had to go to the desk and ask for our own stuff. this was the first time I've been here and I had heard good things about it. this will be the last time I ever come.

My husband and I came here a few months ago and the service was very slow. Our waitress said they were short staffed so we thought we try it again this past weekend. our experience was worse this time and they still seem to be very understaffed as the waitresses had no time to get us refills or check on us during the meal. The restaurant was very busy but I only saw a few people working. The food was ok but the service was so poor we will never go back
