What Emily likes about Beans & Barley Market & Café:
Love this place!. I had avoided this place for a while after my first experience years and years ago when they seemed to have a more limited and sort of bland menu. I visited this place again a few weeks ago and was impressed by the changes they had made! They have incredibly flavorful food and offer a variety for different dietary restrictions (vegan, etc. The little shop in there is also fun to look around in! View all feedback. What Era Schimmel doesn't like about Beans & Barley Market & Café:
Good tasting food but NOT organic. I have no idea why this restaurant comes up under an organic restaurant search. Having organic tea does not equal an organic menu. View all feedback.

Let me stay from the start that I absolutely love this placeIt is exceedingly rare that I give 5 stars.

The restaurant offers good-tasting food, although it's not strictly organic as some may expect. The service has received high praise, with staff members like Ollie and a server headed to a wedding standing out for their kindness and engaging nature. Vegan options are available and the tofu scramble is especially recommended, but be sure to specify if you want a vegan dish without butter. The menu includes excellent dessert options, including a peanut butter chocolate cake. The location is bustling and the atmosphere is welcoming, with local art on display to support the community. Overall, the restaurant is praised for its fresh and healthy offerings, good service, and fun shopping experience.

Great stop for breakfast. Tofu Scramble is the upper notch. Get the cookie and vegan Gravy. Breakfast Burrito is also fantastic.

I've been enjoying eating here for at least 20 years. I can't think of any negatives. Love the market too for browsing after a meal for a few essentials.
