I really want to support this cafe; I love T2 and the cafe ambiance, location, and menu offerings are great, especially during shows. I've always enjoyed the drinks I've gotten from the bar.However, I've tried having lunch there during weekdays twice now, and it's just not been a great service experience. Once I was one of three people in the cafe, and the other I was the only person there.On my first visit, it took about 30 minutes to receive my order.When I visited as the only person there, I waited 45 minutes for a salad. I got a buzzer, but after it had been a bit, I checked in. Was told it was almost ready, but that they had to prepare the chicken that came on top of the salad (?). The person working seemed frustrated that I was even there. I get that people have bad days, but it was a very strange experience.The food is quite good and fresh, albeit a bit pricy, but that's not enough to make me come back during the day.I think this cafe is probably best for pre-show bites and beverages.

I asked for the sandwich to be cut in half. Asked them to do it was told I coukd do it with a plastic knife. When I insisted they do it she brought out a knife and was 1 inch from cutting me while I held the plate. She was so flustered. Don't open a restaurant if you can't provide service. Nice cocktail but I won't eat here again.

I ordered a avocado toast & coffee mocha, it was drinkable but I wouldn’t recommend it. I was the only person in the cafe, they gave me a buzzer that never went off. Eventually I went to go check on the food, & they said they buzzed me twice, the food got cold so they threw it away. When I told them my buzzer never went off they said they have issues with it sometimes. The music was way too loud where I was sitting & they acted like it was my fault I didn’t come get my food. They said they would remake the food so I had to wait again. I did not have a good experience and I would not recommend.

Delicious Tortellini soup and plenty of it!

It has a very bunchy feel to the restaurant. With all of their different seating arrangements & lights. The openness & all of the windows contribute too. They have a wide drinks selection, but not so much on the food. What they do offer for light meals are perfect to accommodate their drinks. I did feel like $12 for a small,basic pizza was a little over priced. The staff was polite & professional.

Great atmosphere. A hint of vanilla in the chocolate. Yum!

It seems incredible that it’s an opening night and there are no cookies or brownies. They are amazing. We missed having something to snack on during intermission.

Frequent patron and volunteer at Theatre Squared and always look forward to grabbing a bite before a show at this beautiful dining area right in the T2 lobby. I'm partial to all of their pizzas and also always enjoyed their kale caesar salad. The other day I was buying a peanut butter cookie, and Bram said if I gave him a moment, hed get me one right out of the oven. Well, it was worth a two-minute wait.

A fun place for grabbing a bite and meeting up with friends. Catch a show while you're here!

It's a quiet little place for a drink or snack. The options are more varied that you would think for a bar.

Great staff love the barista Kirby the most of all! My favorite drink is the caramel latte. You've got to visit you'll definitely go back again.

Been here a few times for a lunch. Good pizza and always good tasting drinks, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic.Of course when I am in for a show, I'll always trying out the specialty cocktail for the event.
