Always amazing and quick service. Such a unique and incredibly priced menu. Such a small charm in Gainesville. The butternut squash soup is great!

Bistro 1245 used to be one of the finest lunch spots around. Unfortunately the last few times I have visited the vibe has just been ho hum. It's a shame. The Bistro needs to step it up or they will lose my business. Sad.

One of my favorite lunch spots. I will be super sad when they close for the new development. Definitely one of the top 3 best lunch spots in Gainesville. Don't miss the squash bisque which is heaven.

The food is actually really amazing. The prices seem a little high for sandwiches/salads. The menu does seem limited, but they have specials too.

Good delicious food. Prices for amount could be better.

Aaron Simmons

Delicious meals! On the pricey side and the queue line could be more organized. Other than that I enjoy this place every time I go in. It has the grunge era motif and feel. Food is prepared quickly and is very appealing to the eye.

(English) Bistro 1245 is a combination of Italian cuisine with club sandwiches, is great little restaurant right across from the Holiday Inn. The food was amazing. I really enjoyed the 3-Herb Pesto pasta and Prosciutto & Mozzarella sandwich both were huge and delicious. The service is really friendly and the ambiance is like a small cafe. Would go back to try the different sandwich options. (Espaí±ol) Bistro 1245 es una combinacií³n de cocina italiana con club sándwiches, un pequeí±o restaurante enfrente del Holiday Inn.

This is a super amazing place. The grilled three cheese sandwich was the best grilled chesse I've ever had! The waitress was as amazing and friendly as you could ever ask for. My first time in Gainesville was great!
