The cashier was a delightful young man, the food was atrociously overpriced and underwhelming, and I saw the kitchen worker (chubby, short brown hair) use his phone while wearing the same gloves he then proceeded to touch the food he was preparing with (about 4:15 pm on the 26th of October 2025).

Great price! Good burger and fries
I recently visited Café 1832, and while the food itself was just okay—not bad, but nothing particularly memorable—the overall experience was made much better by the service. The staff was genuinely friendly and welcoming, which created a warm and inviting atmosphere.
Sometimes great service can make up for a meal that doesn’t quite hit the mark, and that was definitely the case here. Everyone I interacted with had a positive attitude and seemed happy to be there, which really added to the experience.
If you’re looking for a spot with kind people and good vibes, Café 1832 is worth a visit. I’d come back more for the people than the plate, but sometimes that’s just what you need.

First the good: convenient for those visiting the train station, the burger was good and the buns were excellent, the fries were better than I expected. Indoor and outdoor seating to watch the trains. The bad: it's a tourist trap so prices are high. I paid $15 for a burger and fries. And they were good but not $15 good. The ugly; I asked for a cup of water because I didn't like soda and the cashier charged me the full soda price. I again explained I just wanted water, she said the cup costs $2.50. I just wanted tap water. I'm a water guy, I order water all the time and always get free tap water except for Cafe 1832. I could even understand a quarter. Perhaps it was a new employee or maybe that is the policy but it shouldn't cost $2.50 for a 12 oz cup of water. The food itself was better than expected, next time I'll just bring my own water.

I haven’t had a burger this bad in a long time. I saw some good reviews, but I feel like something must have changed in the kitchen. nothing here seems professional at all

We visited this place after the train ride for a coffee. Ambience was so warmth and welcoming, and the staff were super friendly. I got seated right away. The waitress took care of me, and I ordered a chicken nuggets, sandwich, French fries and Coffee. I would totally recommend this place, and the quality of the food and service here was beyond expectation.
Also it’s pocket friendly and has outside patio seating to enjoy the serene atmosphere.

If you want to wait 15 minutes for a cheeseburger and fries, this is your type of place. The location is nice, however, the service is slow. When there was 5 slips up, it took others the same amount of time. Yikes...

Pleasant place to eat at. Good for a quick bite. Definitely causal spot. Great view of the trains.
Got the chicken sandwich, strawberry salad and smash burger.
Filling food, $5 to make things a meal (fries & drink). Clean and friendly staff.

Loved the seating options, being able to watch the activity around the trains was nice, especially since there was a planned event outside; food was your typical fast food options (hotdog, fries, cheeseburger)...a little pricy but to be expected

The self serve payment kiosk starts the suggest tip amount at 15% and goes to 25%.
For what?
You wait for the food and bring it to the table yourself.
Shouldn’t even ask for a tip.
