Lunchtime at Nibbles Cafe

I was very excited to try Nibbles Cafe on Memorial. I have heard good things about their cakes, especially wedding cakes. It was mid-week, and my friend and I wanted to meet up for lunch. When it is a “girlfriend lunch”, I enjoy going to cute place with a lot of personality and good food. Nibbles has a nice feel to it with classic decor and a warm, inviting atmosphere. In lunch food, I normally like to choose from a variety of salads, sandwiches, and of course dessert! I thought that Nibbles would be the perfect place.

My friend and I arrived around 12:30 and there was plenty of seating. We were not greeted for a few minutes, but I didn’t think anything about it. I decided very quickly that I hadn’t selected a very good place to sit. There was a small, 2-person table right along the right backside of the restaurant as you walk in, and I thought it would be a good place to talk. Not the case. It was somewhat isolated from the rest of the restaurant, and the side-view was an open-faced bakery case with all sorts of odds and ends shoved in it. I couldn’t believe that this was visible to the public, very tacky I thought. After being turned off by this presentation, our waitress showed up and was not in a good mood. I normally don’t get offended if a server is a bit “busy”, but she was very rude/pushy. I did realize that she was the only waitress in this small cafe, and so I gave her the benefit of the doubt.

My friend and I ordered the same thing: Caesar salad and Bowl of homemade Chicken Noodle Soup. I will have to say, the food was very good. The soup was flavored very well, veggies and chicken were very tender and all the flavors meshed well together. The dessert looked amazing…cookies, brownies, cakes and an assortment of pastries were saying “pick me, pick me” from inside the glass case. After debating which dessert to pick, we decided to be good kids and skip the sweets this time. Major bummer, but it was probably the best decision. After all, I would like to go back just for dessert and give them another chance.

My sister got her wedding cake from Nibbles. I was a three layered white cake with two layers of lemon filling and one layer of raspberry. It was divine. And I got to go along for the cake tasting which did not suck at all.

I have stopped in and picked up baked goods for the office a few times, and always felt as if I was intruding. The people working the counter seemed rushed and annoyed. I’ve never take the time to eat lunch there, and probably won’t now. The baked goods I have purchased there were delicious – they just need some customer service skills!

Nice review Shae! It’s hard sometimes to separate the food from the service – good job.

It looks like such a good place to have lunch. The atmosphere is quite cozy but I am sorry that the waitress was not very good. Sometimes load of work like you mentioned can make an otherwise great staff look quite bad. I believe you will go there again because you need to enjoy your homemade Chicken Noodle Soup in a good mood. It is such a great dish.
