Happy Cafe

My nephew took me and nieces there on Saturday July 19, 2025. That was our first time there. And the food and service was absolutely amazing. I’m definitely going there again soon. Thanks B.Jordan

This place is a whole vibe! From the food to the decor to the music to the staff! I finally found a place that sells a good reuben sandwich! Food is served hot & fresh w/a smile! They have a well rounded menu w/vegetarian options. Great cocktail menu w/some signature drinks as well as the old favorites! Big tea selection as well. Highly recommend this place & I'm glad i chose it today! well done happy cafe!

This place is absolutely amazing. The service is wonderful and there wasn’t a wait. The mimosas were great and the food has so much flavor . You really need to try the potatoes with the Cajun sauce, amazinggggg. We will definitely be back!!

Food is outstanding, better than expected. Service is five-star - very attentive. Atmosphere is upscale and comfortable. 10/10

I just wanted to share how amazing I think Happy Cafe is! The food, atmosphere, and service was impeccable! I truly enjoyed my visits there. They have such a fantastic variety of delicious options on the menu. The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, making for a wonderful dining experience.

Excellent food. Great service!! Wonderful atmosphere.

Friendly staff, nice atmosphere, mediocre and skimpy food. Unfortunately, half of my sandwich didn't have the ingredients it was supposed to have and the other half was pretty skimpy on them.

The food and dining experience here is outstanding. The breakfast was so wonderful that we returned a few days later and had an equally impressive lunch.

My mom, my cousin, our 86 year old grandma, and I had such a great time at Happy Cafe! Miss V is so welcoming and the food her daughter makes is so delicious. I also appreciate them having vegan options so I can eat with my family. Like Miss V says, she wants you to leave happy and that’s exactly what we did!

Hands down the best brunch I’ve had on my entire vacation. Service was 10/10 Food 10/10 Drinks 10/10 I had the shrimp and grits, toast with an Arnold Palmer (the best Arnold Palmer I’ve had in my life) and the Vanessa cocktail. I recommend this place any time you’re in the area.

After two experiences spread apart over 10 months I now feel comfortable weighing in with a review. I regret it was no more than average for me on both occasions. The combination of food, service and atmosphere were all considered.

The location is tucked away off North Hampton Blvd beside Subway in a strip. Surface parking was not an issue with plenty of availability on a weekday before noon.

As you enter the kitchen it's wide open for viewing. No hostess was present. Staff was welcoming and invited us to take a seat anywhere. The room that you first enter is a holding area when they are on wait. It has couch and few chairs and is nice. Also it was clean.

The dining room is combo of table and chairs with booth along the walls. They offer an accent wall for photo ops. There is a small bar that was busy both visits. Everything was tidy and nice background music played that was just the right volume. Menus and utensils are placed on the tables with salt, pepper and coffee creamer packages.

Both visits service was slow to start and blah once service began. I will highlight my second experience with it being most fresh. However, my initial thoughts were average after my first visit ordering the same dish. I decided they needed another look.

Our waitress after a delay got drink and food orders. It appears there was only one wait staff for the business. She also covered the bar. I ordered French toast which comes with two eggs and meat. They could not do over easy per staff as someone called out. My son got a Cody Breakfast Club. My coffee came out quickly and did not taste good.

Food was pushed out quickly which was super appreciated. Everything looked great! I requested another cup of coffee which was delivered in no time and much better.

The plate for my son was pretty good, no wow but huge! He enjoyed. My dish was completely underwhelming with French toast that was dry and unflavored even with syrup that is prepped prior to serving. Eggs better, sausage patties were great.

Checkout was timely. The price point high with tax and tip $45. I'm unsure what other see that I missed with a current 5 star composite rating. I'm 3.5 rounding down and feel good about this placement. I personally will not rush back with other options to try.

The food was very tasty. The pancakes came recommended and did not disappoint. They are large and coated with sugar and fruit. The server was kind, thorough and detailed in her explanations. The prices were very reasonable. The smoothies are $7.79 and well worth the price. I highly recommend this place. Jazz playing in background was nice and not too loud. The place is cleanly.

Definitely will be back again! Atmosphere when you walk in was welcoming and we were seated pretty quickly on a Saturday morning.Food portions were great and tasted great too! We had the special shrimp and grits 10/10!! And my husband got the pancake meal with a side biscuit which he said was super good. Mimosas were strong and they offer a variety of special flavors along with the mimosa flight!

The food alone was good but I also had a great time with the servers to add on with it. Came from Hawaii and don’t regret the decision one bit.
