The Market Cafe

I absolutely love this place! I really appreciate they offer healthy options and plenty of vegetarian stuff which are hard to come by in this area!! Very reasonable priced!!

All the food was delicious and the vibe was cozy and friendly. Loved the location and would definitely make it a regular spot for breakfast if I lived here

The food is good and they're nice to dogs. However, the coffee; I do like my coffee without flavor additives like macadamia nut, vanilla and what-not, but since they use the same grinder without cleaning it out, all the coffee is flavored. When I ask why my coffee tastes like all of that artificial flavor they tell me that the flavor is added to the beans before they even buy them. I guess that means if you usually hate vanilla coffee you have to like it because the flavor was technically added at a different point in the process? None of the staff could even understand why it would matter to me

If you haven't been here you need to go, breakfast sandwich changed my life. Baked goods are epic. Have a freshly made bagel. Best bagel I've had since leaving Brooklyn.

This is a frequent destination for cyclists. Great food! Their espresso milkshakes alone are worth the trip.

Thank you for taking care of me today at lunch. I travel the entire Commonwealth as part of my job and it's nice to find hidden gem like Market Cafe. The red skin potato salad was excellent! The Reuben was hot with a good amount of sauerkraut. The cafe is in the old station, so if you like trains, you may see a freight train rumble by.

First time here to this cute little place! We had to eat outside due to the dining room being closed but thankfully the weather was agreeable! They serve very good quality food and they have friendly service! The hot irish cream latte I ordered was better than average! Given the chance I would definitely come here again!

We love this place!! A great spot to grab awesome coffee, homemade quiche, speciality sandwiches and of course the ambiance of sitting in or outside an old railroad station, what is not to like! Great place for stopping on a bike ride, grabbing a drink and having a conversation, or just plain having good food and conversation!

Excellent food and drinks at this small cafe in Topton. Vegetarian and meat sandwiches, soups and daily specials.

I occasionally manage to get unflavored coffee but usually it is flavored with coconut or caramel nut. I always ask for unflavored. My guess is that they don't clean out the coffee grinder between grinds. I need to go somewhere where the baristas taste the coffee they make and care about it. This is my last coffee here.

Delicious wraps! I got the chicken caesar and my husband had the buffalo chicken. The amount of chicken was generous and the wrap itself was quite tasty! They also have Sweet Maui onion potato chips... which I don't see at many cafes. Definitely give those a try... yum!

*Unreliable* beware- The market café was supposed to cater a wedding this JUNE of 2019. He has backed out of catering 2 months before the wedding as plans were arranged over a year ago. VERY unprofessional...

I haven't found a ton of eating establishments I would recommend in the upper Berks County area but The Market Cafe is one of my favs! The building is a refurbished little train station with cute cozy spaces. The food is yummy, including a variety of teas and coffees, homemade scones and such, quiches and breakfast sandwiches. I've only gone for breakfast so can't comment on lunch foods, but from the standpoint of ambiance, it's super chill in a good way. Besides the food and location, a lot of what I like about is the groovy music playing in the atmosphere. Nice place for low

1st time in the area and found this nice quaint place. Good and friendly service and a good toasted egg, ham, and cheese breakfast sandwich.

Great fresh made food!! We stopped by for a late lunch and wow- we were truly impressed! We had their waffle special and an egg sandwich with cheese and pesto on flatbread. Both were yummy but I won with the egg sandwich. Food is fresh made so relax and enjoy the quaint atmosphere!!

Love this place! It has changed hands, but I've seen a lot of growth since then. The food is fresh and so good. The homemade cakes and pastries are fabulous - it's a great place to stop for a fresh, hot cup of coffee (Jamaican Me Crazy is my favorite!) and pastry or a light meal. The atmosphere is really nice and the staff are friendly and the place is clean. They also catered my wedding and I wouldn't have had anyone else cater it - the service was terrific and the food was fantastic. I love that we have some place like this to go in my small home town. Here's to many years

I love this place. Great breakfast, great sandwiches, all made with care. Good coffee as well. The espresso milkshake is excellent.

The not-so bad: Be ready to wait. Food is good, or I wouldn't wait.

Wife and I agree on this place because she loves "cute little cafes" and I love trains! Great food, reasonable prices. Everything looked good. Sweet potato soup was excellent.

By far one of the best places to eat in the Lehigh Valley...food, prices, service. Seriously. It's a little place, but quaint...in an old train depot. Staff very friendly with quirky sense of humor. The place has a beatnik feel to it, like a cool place you'd find in a good college town. Unlike some of the other reviews, I just haven't had a problem with the wait. Usually served within 15min for a larger order (people are in too much of a hurry these days...slow down people...enjoy life...enjoy the train rumbling on by. Not open for dinner, but I wish they were. Great menu

The business has changed hands since my last review. I really wanted to like this place as much as I had before. Perhaps it's a case of, "familiarity breeds contempt," but I must say I've stopped going here altogether. I was understanding when things were just getting started (even though very little, including the staff, has changed) that it was going to be a bit rough around the edges. But after a month, and my orders are either forgotten about or needed to be redone, I was losing patience. Then there was the line to the door that didn't move. I was in and out a

I have recently started frequenting the Market Cafe & find it delightful for lunch. Great soups, salads, and sandwiches await. Some of the best I've had in the area, hands down. Just beware, the indoor seating is limited & does tend to get taken quickly during the lunch hour. During the summer months, outdoor seating is plentiful & nice, but the nearby train makes outdoor dining conversations difficult.

I will be fair. This place is delicious; but has its issues. A very surprising find in the small town of Topton, PA. I have only recently discovered this establishment, within the past year. Breakfast is my usual, sometimes lunch. Food is always delicious and fresh. Seating is great, people are very nice....price is fantastic. I recommend it!

Now for the honest issues. The service is not so great. One experience was during brunch around 11 in the morning. They seemed busy, but had plenty of staff in full view. It took 40 minutes from order to table
