Came specifically for the lobster roll with salad and water for the 23.49 price listed online and at menu when ordering in person. (see picture) Cashier said NO - its not included- so I had to pay an extra $2.50 for a water…. Then I waited over 15 minutes for it bc one worker girl was chatting away and didn’t realize I was waiting for it? It literally sat for about 8 minutes. How is that acceptable when the place was steady busy?
All tables were dirty so I was forced to eat in the car. Bummer about it all was the lobster roll with butter was great (a bit on the small side - maybe 4oz of meat) BUT the charcoal on the roll was questionable. (see picture). Be better Pushcart.

After response from Pushcart
Wow…. Short staffed? then why did one worker chat forever with someone and NOT do her job and left my sandwich to sit!!!!
Furthermore…. We all work hard for our money people should know what to expect before choosing a place to spend their money.
I will NOT be back. Especially for the lack of service (lame excuses) and misleading menu prices.

$26.00 Salad and soda. What the hell went on here. Last visit it was $12.00 for the same salad and soda….
Did I brake a window? And the balls to have a “tip option”come up on the key pad for something I made myself…

30 year Customer lost!

Me and my girlfriend ordered a chicken parm sub and it was the epitome of mid. Chicken is chewy and not crispy, sauce is that fake/too sugary stuff, and the bread is whatever. Cherry on top: that melted plastic like shredded mozzarella cheese as a topper.
It was slow maybe 4 or 5 other patrons who already had their food, so it wasn’t because the time of day
Waste of calories.
Picture says it all, just look at it.

*Mac n cheese was alright*

I ordered a grilled chicken and the description mentioned the chicken was marinated. Not only was it very dry and bland, but it did not taste as if it were even cooked before I picked it up. It tasted like reheated, like you would throw in the microwave, very dry and rubbery. The chicken was extremely tough to cut. I ended up spitting out what I tried and threw the rest away. The broccoli also did not taste cooked and a few pieces tasted cold.I’m very disappointed this was $15 and on par if not worse than what I could make myself at home. I typically got subs here with no issues and I wanted to try something else. I will think twice if I go back here or dare to try something else off the menu.Edit* -Just wanted to address some things mentioned in the reply. I did not call back because I was on a lunch break and didn’t have time to go back to the store and take care of this, nor should I have to.I understand it had grill marks, that does not imply it was cooked then and there on the grill, it could have been from days ago, etc. I have cooked chicken before, I find it very hard to believe this was cooked on a grill before I picked it up. Again it was very dry and not marinated at all. It plainly just tasted like reheated chicken. The owner stated I ordered it plain, I did not. In fact there is no option to add anything regarding marinade, sauce or even to make it plain.There was only the description saying it was marinated, I have added photos right from their online ordering showing the options.

I have stopped at the cafe a couple of times already for either a salad or a cup of soup. Today, I decided on a hot panini. I discussed a type of bread with the staff and ordered a grilled chicken panini. It was nicely served and yummy. I liked that the bread had sesame seeds on it. Also, a piece of pickle added a nice flavor to my lunch.This cafe has a plenty of space. People come as well in groups to enjoy a great selection of food and their company. Highly recommend it.

I ordered 3 smoothies today (Berry blast, strawberry banana, and mango tango) and they were all $9 each. This would’ve been fine but the smoothies were tiny and all of them had no flavor. They all tasted like yogurt rather than fruit and one of the lids weren’t even on. It also took 10-15 minutes for me to get my order which was just the drinks. I came here because it was convenient based on where I was at the time, but next time I’d rather just drive to Chelmsford and get a flavorful smoothie from Tropical Smoothie Cafe for only $7

Clean store with a great selection of food and soups. They have dinners that you can get to go. They are located right in a little plaza that has some other stores and there's always parking close to the restaurant.

The food is good but have messed up my food twice and I’ve already driven home. It’s a pain to go there then find out your food is wrong when you are about to eat it. They put chicken in a plain wrap. Don’t eat meat so I could not eat it.

Don't bother calling @ 11 they never answer the phone. Food is worth it though.
