| - Bronze Cafe has an amazing and flawless menu. And I can say this because I've tried most everything they offer. To say that every detail of their menu has been carefully thought through and scrutinized is an understatement...no stone is left un-turned in crafting robust and refreshing flavor combinations.
Let's begin with my favorite sandwich on the menu - the Tree of Life Pita. SO GOOD. And all veg. I'm a hardcore carnivore and I will still choose this every time I go. But if you're really craving meat, you can't go wrong with the LGBTQ (a genius spin on the BLT...with lemon vinaigrette, greens and q-cumber thrown in for good measure) - everything blends together so well. Also outstanding are the California Turkey, the What What (tastes like pizza!), and the Green Goddess Chicken Salad Sandwich...I wish I had enough stomach space to order seconds on all these. Truly amazing sandwiches across the board.
Now on to some additional and notable highlights.
David's Special is probably the best salad I've ever had. Very hearty without being too heavy and a mixture of flavors that compliment each other perfectly - kale, beets, quinoa, spiced chickpeas, avocado and hemp seeds...and with their signature lemon vinaigrette that binds it all together. I never thought I could love a salad so much.
If you're there for breakfast, get the Swedish Oatmeal. This is not your standard oatmeal...it's SO GOOD. A perfect balance of spices and sweetness. I also recommend getting this for not-breakfast. Just eat it all the time. And their smoothies...drool. The pumpkin smoothie (not sure if this is a seasonal offering) puts certain commercial coffee chains to shame. Just hook it to my veins.
And the desserts are also amazing...so if you still have room at the end of your meal, I recommend the peanut butter snickerdoodle, the chocolate zucchini cake, or a slice of their vegan cheesecake. Don't let the "vegan" description scare you. It will knock your socks off.
To summarize, all the food is stellar. Order anything and walk away happy. But the biggest compliment I have for this place is the refreshing friendliness and helpfulness of the entire staff. Chefs & owners Peter & Dave treat each guest like a friend and the staff couldn't be more pleasant and eager to help freshly make and serve your food with a smile. Special shout-out to Carmen who served up the food in the most cheerful manner I've ever seen. Bronze Cafe is a home away from home. Go. Go now.
