Daily Byte Cafe • $
306 S Wright St, Urbana

“Just 3 hours away from home from an “Out West” road trip, we needed something to eat. I can usually never say no to biscuits and gravy with hashbrowns, so that’s what I ordered. A half-order was perfect for my appetite. The staff was great. You could tell it was a favored restaurant amongst the locals. The cafe was clean and we thought the food was delicious. It will definitely be on our radar the next time we travel!“

“Strawberry Fields Cafe is an excellent option in a campus town, offering a variety of global foods and vegan selections. The Lamb Tajine is decent, while the Samosas and calzone are a bit pricey but made in the bakery. The cafe has a half-market, half-cafe setup with vegan options like baba ganouj, hummus, and falafel in the deli. They also offer milk alternatives for drinks and a selection of bottled beverages. Rated at 4.5 stars, it's a must-visit spot for diverse and delicious meals.“
