We had a lovely lunch. Great facilities in beautiful surroundings. The only let down was that many of the vegetarian options were not available so we were limited on choice. We chose this cafe for its menu which appeared to offer good variety for vegetarians and vegans, however disappointed when we arrived. On a positive note the cafe and outdoor seating area were clean, well spaced out and it was good to see staff wearing masks indoors.

It was lovely to be able to sit outside and eat with a friend without having to book. Hot drinks were lovely. Food is all vegetarian.
Both had mushroom burgers with mixed review. I loved it my friend wasn't so keen - personal taste... but all the food coming out the kitchen looked superb. Prices were reasonable for the food served.

This cafe is amazing! The chai was super yummy and the service was great and the view is awesome. They have a patio and flowers and palm trees. As a patriotic American I love the freedom to enjoy what I want, where I want and without a face diaper. Our Governor is amazing and supports the small, individual businesses here which are the soul of America. GOD bless America!

This place reminds me of my favorite cafe in Indy. Perfect location and a great menu. Friendly staff. Was pretty busy for late afternoon and it took a while for a pressed sandwich. Got it to go. get back to the office & discover a lot of hot Gouda with only 1 slightly thick piece of ham. It's okay though, with this location I'll have to come back soon

Wow, this place took forever to make my sandwich. It was a busy Sunday lunch rush. They could use extra help and a more efficient system. Feel like they could get rid of their side salad because all you get is a few pieces of lettuce and it adds to the to go packaging requirements.
All and All, it is worth the wait. My BLT was amazing. It was 5 star. Great bread, fresh avocado (like butter), and what tasted like garden reedy tomato and lettuce. Next, add bacon. Yummy.

Cafe in the park, conveniently located in Payne Park, has a menu ranging from coffees, sandwiches, baguettes and pressed sandwiches as well as a few salads. Prices of sandwiches range from 6.50 to 10.00. On this visit I ordered the Zoë with side salad. The Zoë, an original is goat cheese, prosciutto, pine nuts and honey on a baguette. I ordered the salad option as to expect a small side of salad, to my dísmay what was presented was three pieces of greens with some toppings. Disappointed, I asked the cashiers if it would be possible to get a few more greens which she said no.. I would have

A friend and I were taking a walk to downtown Sarasota and passed through the park and stopped here for just a light nibble - brownie and tea but really to sit and chat.
What a nice area to be as there were outdoor seating which is where we sat to enjoy the gorgeous Florida Sunshine. Yet if you don't want too much sun, you can choose some with the umbrella or go inside.
There were sandwiches, salads, desserts. Initially while I was waiting, I automatically search the chalk menu that was hanging on the wall to see what's available to do Yelp reviews. I didn't learn until afterwards

What sweetness!A delightful cafe in Payne Park. Nice service. They made fresh several kinds of iced tea! I love it! It's 80degrees today... so this is a treat for me!! I saw they had blueberry muffins still in its baking tray. I ordered one. Nice generous quantity of blueberries inside! Enjoy a nice salad or if you just need to cool off the have POP CRAFT popsicles. ( Mexican chocolate, lemonade, strawberry, tangerine orange blossom....etc)
So enjoy the island music
Fresh treats. Cool down and relax!
Nice staff behind the counter!
