I order delivery from The Works Cafe about 4 days a week. I get the same thing everytime. The consistency is 80% which is pretty high. I get the Fresh Mozzarella sandwich on Multigrain bread with tomatoes. I love it with Field greens as well but ordering consistency was an issue so I just stick with as is. The mac n cheese is great when it is great. It can be very salty at times. I order mine without bread crumbs. When I get them anyway its disappointing because I have to remove the top part of mac n cheese to get rid of them. They are extremely strong flavored especially in the quantity put on. I'm sure some people like them. I canno longer taste the mac n cheese because the bread crumbs are overwhelming. Use of real bread crumbs would be better. You never know how much you will get in your cup. Sometimes full and sometimes less than half and everything in between. The bacon is excellent when cooked crispy. The Honey Bear is good. I order it with an extra banana so it comes thicker. Pics are from multiple visits and prior to eating.

Me and my grandma have been coming here since I was a little girl. This place is the best. They have the best service, all of the workers are so kind. The food is absolutely delicious, and has a great portion, and presentation, the place its self is so cute, it is so calming to just sit there, talk, and eat. 10/10 recommend

Food there priced well for taste and quality. Dagwood with crispy bacon bits on it slaps. I would add a photo of the sandwich but I ate it too fast.

the staff are super welcoming and kind, and the food is amazing!!! i think the best part is definitely the style and vibe of the cafe itself - but the bagel egg sandwich i ordered is a close second. if you're a fan of everything bagels and pulpy smoothies, you need to visit - the fruit is fresh and their everything bagels really are EVERYTHING!!!!

I come in here everyday after work and have a couple of coffees then i go home. All the wait staff is always friendly but, today I came in there i only had one coffee and I noticed it was empty which okay whatever, however; I just simply mentoned it and the manager was like, " well, we're not going to make anymore coffee this late at night." and it was only 4:40 in the afternoon and there open until 7pm. Which is cool but, it was her attitude about the whole thing she gave me a weird look and then looked at her employee with disgust that I even said something. They did make me a coffee americano which was cool but, honestly who needs that kind of treatment from any place.
