kinda disappointed with the service this morning. Order a simple 12oz latte. i thought it would just take 3min. but it took 15min. Girl at the cashier forgot to make my coffee. When the "manager" i assume passed by, i told him that im still waiting for the coffee that i ordered. Then i saw him make the coffee and brought it to me.
It wasnt that busy too. there were 3 people already eating/drinking and its just 10am in the morning. i assume the customer rush is over. but yeah. please dont forget the customers order.

Had the pastrami sandwich, which was underwhelming at best. Very fatty meat, and at least double the price it was worth.

Loved the Chicken Club on Foccacia, delicious. Was also really glad I could order a nice cold refreshing cider drink, right when I needed it. ? ?

I normally have a good experience with this location but recently after finding I have a gluten intolerance I had to switch to salads over (their amazing) sandwiches. Today was the worst experience yet: they didn't add the quinoa I asked for but did add a grain that looked like what???? I'm afraid to go back.

Quick and easy to dip in for lunch, some of the best sammies on Granville. Highly recommended if you’re in the area.

Amazing Pork Sandwich and Exceptional Service!!!
I recently visited Railtown Cafe on Granville st. and had an absolutely fantastic experience. I ordered the pork sandwich, and wow—it was beyond delicious! The meat was tender and perfectly seasoned, with a great balance of flavors, and the bread had just the right amount of crunch. The sandwich was generously portioned, filling, and satisfying—definitely worth every penny.
But what made my visit even more memorable was the excellent service. Hanzel was incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure everything was just right and creating a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Every staff worked with great energy and also professionally! It’s always nice when staff goes above and beyond to ensure you have a great time, and that’s exactly what happened here.
I highly recommend Railtown Cafe not only for their amazing food but also for the top-notch service. I’ll definitely be back!

Apathetic - I went here on July 22 ‘24, and ordered a soup. They said soups are not ready until 10:30am. It was 10:22am. I said I could wait for 8 minutes, can I please order a soup and I paid for the soup. They then forgot to give me the soup and I had to go back and explain that I had ordered and already paid for it. The soup itself was good.

I can’t comment on anything other than the classic Italian sandwich because that’s what I get every time I go. It’s piled with fresh ingredients and the bread is always fresh. I only work downtown a couple days per week, but this sandwich makes me want to come more often.
"Meh" at best , precooked food that reheated, coffee was ok, staff was friendly, other than that nothing memorable about it.

i spent 30$ on a salad here (adding the protein), walked about 7 blocks from my office. Got back to office only to find there's no dressing on my salad. Like wth. Not happy.
The place is dirty. The glass doors etc should be cleaned. Come on - show some pride of ownership.

I visited before going to the airport. Located right in front of Waterfront Station. Spacious interior. Good mood. Very friendly staff.
