About Epicure Cafe

Epicure Cafe is a charming and casual restaurant located near the River Oaks Theatre, known for its delicious pastries and quality food offerings. The cafe has been a local favorite for about 35 years and features a diverse menu that includes soups, salads, sandwiches, and a selection of hot dishes inspired by cuisines from the US, Western Europe, the Middle East, and Latin America. While many dishes are fresh and of good quality, some customers have noted that certain items, like the Egg Benedict, can lack flavor.

The cafe is particularly renowned for its Central European pastries, torts, and cookies, which are crafted by a baker trained in Budapest and Vienna. The pistachio cake, in particular, stands out for its light texture and rich flavor, making it a perfect companion for coffee and tea. However, there have been occasional issues with service, such as incorrect orders, which can detract from the overall experience.

Despite these minor setbacks, the friendly staff and relaxed ambiance make Epicure Cafe a delightful spot to enjoy good coffee and pastries, including highly praised croissants. With excellent service and a comfortable space, it continues to be a beloved gem in the community.

Our family loves the European vibe, food, pastries and the staff. We hope the cafe doesn’t change much with the new owner.

My palate just had a feast tasting their Pork Vindaloo ✨😋 from their menu specials! It’s a cute place to dine in with a cozy ambience and a great selection of desserts 🍽🍰‼️

This family-owned business has been serving delicious food & home-made baked goods for many years. Have always enjoyed going there.
