We were passing through Amarillo and we found this hidden jewel. I was impressed with this small basement lunch venue located in the downtown Amarillo bank building. Everything was very clean and the food was excellent. The menu has plenty of sandwiches including some vegetarian options. We had the Vegetarian sandwich and the Professor. The salad bar was fresh and delightful! It included kale, other greens & veggies, fruit, and even roasted vegetables like brussel sprouts, zucchini, and broccoli. The service was spot on! Everything was worth the trip.

Enjoyed the food. My husband got the fried cod and hush puppies, and I ate from the salad bar and had the Professor, a veggie sandwich. The food was delicious! Honestly, I don't eat meat or dairy, but I was highly tempted to try his food as it looked so good. It helped that mine was tasty too! I highly recommend giving this place a try.

I placed a large lunch order for work here and wanted something different. So we got a few trays of different casseroles, lasagnas and kale salad. Also got dessert shots....very well packaged for our pick up and wonderful variety of food that wasn't your average bbq or chicken fried steak options. The price is right for catering as well and everyone loved the variety and flavor of everything. The owner was very nice to work with and should be supported as a small business owner of something that is delightfully out of the norm for Amarillo.

Pushy waitress doesn't let you look at the menu in peace. Where's the fire??!!
Can't share your salad with your significant other. Waitress didn't share that information with us before we ordered. Came here for the salad, got a self-serve salad bar instead. My old corporation cafeteria had better food than this! Avoid this place.

A nice surprise found in the basement of the Amarillo National Bank building. A chic cafe with sandwiches and a salad bar. I had the prickly pear lemonade, which was a festive pink, but nothing too special, and The Professor sandwich -- hummus, guacamole, alfalfa sprouts, spinach. I love their fries! Definitely would hit up this place for lunch again.

Anyone who's been to Amarillo knows it is not known as a vegetarian/vegan friendly town. I was looking hard on Yelp to find any place with the word "vegetarian" in the description. Then I found Pan-Handlers Cafe. Bookmark!
Since it's in the basement of a bank building, you'd never know it was there unless someone told you or you researched like I did. I got down to the basement and was so pleasantly surprised at what I found.
There were two (I think) vegetarian sandwiches on the menu and I thought about one of them. But the salad bar was calling my name. So I just
