Black Forest Cafe & Bakery

Black Forest Cafe seems like one of those hipster type places at first, with a small menu on a clipboard and weird water jugs that look like fish and make a funny gurgling sound after they're done putting your water. Don't let this turn you off if you're not the hipster type. BFC is not your average hipster run restaurant. Their menu has something for everyone, including vegan and gluten free options. They have burgers and sandwiches as well, and a few signature cocktails. Their real bread and butter oddly enough isn't the actual homemade bread and butter they bring it to you when you sit down (which is very good by the way), but their desserts. Super rich and will definitely feed two people twice over. Their pricing is a tiny bit on the expensive side, but you get what you pay for here, and you'll be happy you came here instead of the Olive Garden. Despite the menu covering all of the basics, I feel it could be a bit more diverse, but what they do have is very satisfying. If you're looking for a more casual setting than the winery down the road, this is definitely the place to go. Oh also, their rewards program is worth signing up for if you frequent this place.

Consistent service. Just right sized portions. Creative, unique combinations of food which is great, because why would I eat out what I might make at home. Really great. Lots of different kinds of options on the menu and great that it changes with each season. Love the Rewards program!

Have yet to eat at the restaurant but the bakery/store is great! Wraps are so good and there are always some great sweets as well. I’ve also used the upstairs area to work from when we’ve had power outages at home. Great alternative to Panera or Starbucks for this purpose.

This is tough place to rate. They have a wonderful Cafe you can go pick up baked good, quiches, coffee, etc., and everything I've tried there is delicious. The Sunday brunch comes with complimentary fresh baked goods. The biscuits are yummy, the scones tend to be dry. The food menu for brunch and lunch is limited, and I have had dishes I've liked and dishes I don't like. The dishes tend to be over sauced in my opinion. For example, the avacado toast for brunch and the seafood crepes for lunch were so over sauced that o had to scoop sauce off with my spoon. Overall, it is a good place to try, especially for goodies and fresh local ingredients, but the food combinations are inconsistent.

Went there for lunch with my wife. We both ordered the garden salad and it was mediocre at best. I could have made a better salad at home and saved the $9. Our waiter had a snotty smart ass attitude about him and made the experience pretty UN-enjoyable. Maybe they have better coffee but I will not be coming back here.
