Went to the Salt Cave for some much needed meditation with my lovely partner. Relaxed we agreed to try this place Cafe Con Loche. I'd consider us foodies of sorts. I'll tell ya honestly...we were floored by the food here. We ordered the Bruschetta, Blackened Chicken and Chicken Burrito. All were absolutely phenomenal. Our server was aces. She had perfect timing and was a pleasure. The place is super cozy. The ambience was chill. Might be the salt talking but I loved it. Thanks Cafe Con Loche. You made our trip to Newtown complete. Long may you run.

Vicki and Danielle (and the Chef!!) are incredibly accommodating, friendly and make exceptional food. I’ve been coming here for years and just yesterday!! The portions are huge and I had lunch today from the left overs!! They are just as great as yesterday!!!
I read some of the reviews below and find it frustrating that people can just review a one star for waiting 🤦♀️.
For a place like this, a small restaurant that provides quality over quantity sounds like the people should just go to a fast food joint for a quick meal. I’ve been a customer since before Covid and the food and customer service has never wavered. I drive from NJ and pass dozens of places since I moved to get here. It’s quality and care. If you’re looking for a place that didn’t loose the ability to make you feel like it was worth the choice, come here. Seriously are you on your way?? If not, the brownies should make you quickly get in your car and drive here. Or the homemade whip cream, you’re welcome!!!!

This was my second visit—and unfortunately, my last. We arrived at 2:30 PM, seated ourselves as instructed, and by 2:41 PM we still hadn’t been formally greeted, offered water, or provided a beverage menu. A staff member (white male who told us to sit anywhere) walked by, and we politely asked for water. He said he would be right back after using the restroom. I waited near the front counter, and he walked right past me to make coffee—steaming milk and preparing a coffee for someone else—without so much as a glance toward our table. We never received water or any service at all.
After driving nearly 40 minutes to dine here again, we ended up walking out and finding another place to eat. Disappointing doesn’t begin to describe the experience. The only reason I’m giving one star is because of the memory of the attentive and friendly staff from my last visit. Unfortunately, that level of service was nowhere to be found today. I can’t rate the food because we were never served. The atmosphere was average, but the service (or lack thereof) has made it unlikely that I’ll return.

Never once have I had to edit a restaurant score from a five star to a one star this place on my second visit there was totally bad. The waiter even said hold on. He has to go to the bathroom and he’ll get our drinks after he’s finished making some coffee When we got there. We asked to get water while we decide on the drinks that we want. we waited 10 minutes and still have not received our water. In addition the waiter was doing everything else, and there was only one other person in the restaurant at the time, but he refused to come back and serve me in halfway decent Matter. Maybe it’s just the waiter but the service there sucks. I will hope the food is better during the day I just decided to Leave before even ordering

Came here for lunch while in the area. The quesadilla was phenomenal! Server was professional, although they did seem under staffed for servers. Overall, it was good! I would definitely recommend!

Loved the place. It's a hidden gem, a small cozy cafe downstairs. Sweet potato soup and quesadilla were amazing. The service is very pleasant

The owners of this restaurant are vegan and the menu has an abundance of options. Vegan food is certainly not an afterthought here and our server highlighted several vegan specials and options right off the bat.
Although I was torn between several intriguing dishes, I decided on the Vegan Chicken Marsala as this was a meal I enjoyed growing up which I have never seen veganized. All I can say is... wow, it truly blew me away!!! The sauce was perfect, the vegan chicken was tender and it held the flavor perfectly. The vegetables and mushrooms were fresh and the portion was generous. I have been blessed to try a lot of incredible vegan food in my life and this dish is up there with the best of them! I just wish I had remembered to take a picture before I ate it all (Which happened faster than I expected as it was 🤤).
As an aside, I was left wondering what it is like behind the scenes for a vegan couple who run a restaurant that serve animals as food. From what I could tell, it seems like this space is an effective bridge to normalize veganism and introduce amazing vegan food to meat eaters who may not otherwise come across it. Still, I would love to see them eventually make the leap and turn it 100% plant based. That being said, I am still thankful for the amazing vegan food they do offer ❤️
We were the only ones in the restaurant when we entered. Waited 15 minutes, the server never came over to take our order so we just left. Terrible service.

I was randomly in this town and found Cafe con Leche. I’m vegan so I decided to get some lunch. SO GOOD! I had an amazing soup (actually took extra to go), quesadillas and dessert to go. It was all so yummy! The service was also great. I just wish I lived closer! Would definitely recommend!

I didn't get anything vegan. But my friend did and she wasn't a huge fan of the food. I got brocoli and chicken and it was just ok

This restaurant never fails to impress. We enjoy introducing friends to this restaurant that we have been coming to for many years (probably should eat there more often). The food is always good and being a BYOB has definite advantages. We rarely have room for dessert but the vegan chocolate cake is one of the best. On a side note, our son and vegan daughter in-law are weekly customers of LUV in Hatboro.
