“We had an amazing dining experience at Seize The Cafe. The staff was so welcoming, genuine and friendly. The at home atmosphere was cozy and relaxed. The service was spot on. But the most wonderful thing about this gem of a restaurant, is the food. Clearly Chef Chad loves food. You can taste it in every bite. He is skilled in creating scrumptious flavors and unbeatable meals. Can't wait to go back! and don't hesitate to order pie and ice cream to round out your meal. Both homemade and absolutely out of this world.“

“I have been coming to SouthPine for years! I love the emphasis on creative, healthy, natural, locally sourced foods. My favorite coffee drink is the Dirty Hippie Chai — this is just one of Southpine’s many unique menu items. The owners of SouthPine are caring, compassionate and friendly. I highly recommend SouthPine!“

“If you’re looking for a Classy environment and a quality cup of Joe, this is your place.“

“I love this little cafe. The atmosphere is extremely calm and pleasant, the staff is super friendly and they do not overcharge you like in other places. The cafe is very bright and it's beautifully furnished. Coffee and tea is very good.
Perfect place to work without distraction.“

“always happy to see Danielle working when she is. Truly amazing at making the best drinks and a pleasure to chat with.
Great drinks are here with some truly great workers like Danielle. Cafe Aroma is truly lucky to have such a great and outstanding worker“

“An elderly lady was stranded after Ride Source left without her. Will and his son let her stay in the cafe long after closing while she waited to be picked up. They were very kind and considerate. It's good to know there are still good humans out there.“

“I recently discovered they have gluten-free bread available for sandwiches, which was a nice surprise. When I went in today and inquired if they prepared the gf sandwich on the same surface as other bread, they said yes. However, they offered to prepare it directly on a plate to eliminate contamination. That was a lovely and welcome suggestion. Kudos for their quick thinking and friendly service! I'll be back!“

“Such great food. All vegan and delicious! Came down from Salem. We've been twice. I love how flavorful the food is.

Rather than tipping, you can pay it forward and donate any money towards others who cannot afford but need a hot meal.“

“Excellent food and service. Come by for coffee, a meet up, Breakfast, Lunch or dinner!“

“Haven't written a review before, but I've been here quite a few times now and really like it. The coffee is great and the location is too! There's a neat little corner outside in the back for those who want a little more privacy and quiet also.“

“This building is a centerpiece of the campus, and going up inside has its own great views. Plenty of space to hang out inside, plus there is an outdoor balcony on the back side. Quiet spot to get away from the hustle and bustle of students moving from class to class.“

“Actually I do NOT recommend this place! I ordered the RBG sandwich, and it was one of the worst sandwiches I ever had. The bread was dry and the ingredients were skimpy and fell out of the bread. The chickpea spread was almost non-existent. I paid $8 but it was worth about $1.50. I do NOT recommend this sandwich or this place.“

“Love the Grab N Go store that is here. Also the fire N spice, Big Mouth Burrito, Common grounds (good smoothies and acäi bowls are really good). So many choices ! There are 5 places within or next to common grounds where you can grab a bite to eat“

“Amazing turkey sandwich !!! The spread was amazing“

“Kendall is well known for the sales and service departments. Little is known of a cafe tucked away between Kendall’s Honda and Acura dealerships, Wheels Cafe. Well I am here to tell you that Chris and his staff, are heads and shoulders above a lot of eateries here in Eugene. They prepare a daily special that tantalizes the taste buds and burgers that can extinguish the hungriest of appetites. You can tell that the food comes second only to the customer service from the staff. Everyone is prompt and courteous, ready to help with all your culinary desires. Kendall has a tag line, “Kendall the name means a great deal,” The Wheels Cafe and the staff exemplifies this motto. Remember, The Wheels Cafe is open to the public, not just to employees and the customers of the sales and service departments.“

“Great coffee every time, workers are so sweet and happy!“

“Extensive menu of savory crepes as well as sweet. Breakfast served all day. Indoor and outdoor seating. Staff is incredible. Definitely one of our new favorite spots!“

“Heard of this place from my boyfriend. He comes here a lot when he travels to visit his sister. Today after the Ducks game he took me, and I was not disappointed! Such a great vibe and the food- oh the food , so delightful. Very impressed! When we come back through we will defiantly stop in.“

“Customer service is professional, yet warm and friendly. It coincides with the quality of scrumptiousness Noisette delivers!!“

“Delicious, made from scratch food and even better coffee (I recommend the cold brew with a smidge of pumpkin!) the service is what made it for me, staff went out of their way to make my experience better and were very very kind! Will certainly be back!“

“Absolutely bomb food, so good!! And very nice service ❤️“

“I ate breakfast (eggs, toast, hashbrowns, bacon, oatmeal, coffee) there 3 days straight while staying at the Graduate hotel and found the service to be good, the food to be good (though small oatmeal size), and the espresso was excellent. Plus it opens at 6 am every day which is critical for me, coming from the east coast and waking early. I highly recommend it!“

“This is a great place to eat .. I’m just starting my gluten-free life and I went to go look this restaurant up on my gluten-free app .. I get the restaurant 1000 stars .. Heather was an amazing help in ordering our food .. She took her time to explain everything and was very kind .. just what we needed .. food was amazing ..“

“The best vibe in eugene. I was around when Cowfish was birthed upon the sad-eugene scene: it filled a gap where the non-insider-outsider human could feel a breath of relief, remove their proverbial mask of normalcy, and be free with other non-classifiable amiable weirdos while out-and-about in the day or night. I can attest: Throughout CF’s residency in eugene, I have always known it to be a space where I don’t have to cover-up my atypical weirdness to feel safe and belong. I’ve been absent from eugene for 9 years now. Upon a recent return to town, I entered CF and felt the same relief as I noted above. 😻💿 👹 📀🛸💽 🫀 Thank you, Cowfish, for being unapologetically weird and keeping it real, I love you forever and always. <3“

“One of my favorite places to get lunch, their dishes are consistent, the food is fresh and delicious, and the staff are always friendly and nice. Service is quick, and the dining area is kept clean. Spicy Chicken Teriyaki is my favorite meal, but I like to get the Yumm sauce on the side because at times they can add a little too much to the servings. Great place.“

“I stumbled upon this place while visiting Eugene and it was the best mocha I ever had!! Made with Homemade ganache- YUM! They customized my order and the scone was amazing too. I will back next time I visit, for sure! Excellent service.“

“Hideaway has great coffee and baked goods, along with both outdoor and indoor seating. I had their Tempeh sandwich the other day and it was wonderful.“

“Love this place so much I almost want to keep it a secret. I take my clients here for business coffees whenever I’m in Eugene. Mellow for meetings or working remote. Bomb food. Super nice baristas. Consistent. Haven’t been disappointed. 💯“

“Best coffee and an incredible environment ❤️“

“place is always yummy always nice polite servers and quick on the food love this place“
