Volunteer Park Cafe & Pantry

This used to be my absolute favorite place- just went back for the first time since the remodel and it’s a huge let down. Gone are the incredible food and baked good options. Not worth the price as it feels like you’re sitting on a grocery store. Ingredients are fresh but there isn’t even hot sauce on the table to give a bland sandwich some flavor.

Love this spot for a chill weekend breakfast or coffee run. Cozy vibes and the sandwich was delicious. Highly recommend the pear and cardamom muffin!

Really cute spot with great pastries, coffee and light breakfast fare. They have outdoor seating in front and back if you have your pup with you, as we often do on a neighborhood walk that leads us here. My only gripe is that due to their small kitchen, they serve only breakfast sandwiches and parfaits until 11am and then switch over to only their toasts, soup and salads after that (11-3pm), so your options for food are a bit limited depending on what time you get there. That said, everything is quite tasty!

Super cozy cafe, and divine on a sunny day for coffee and light meals! The spring vegetable toast was so good and flavorful through every component - the herby garlic sauce, mushrooms, and the thinly shaved asparagus was very fun. The breakfast sandwich just freaking smacked, it was so classic and savory. Their display case cakes and pastries looked great to try for next time~

scrumptious sandwiches made with the finest ingredients and touch.
