The Urban Cafe - North Bay

Fresh, delicious and a best kept secret of the downtown working crowds. If you are visiting and want a good lunch, come here.

It is off the main street and closes very early (at 4 p.m.), but worth a visit for lunch. It is run by young and attentive guys, who have the local very well decorated. They offer several options of dishes of the day and a short menu but with appetizing and very well prepared dishes.recommendable

This small cafe is ideal for lunch. Food is freshly prepared and delicious. Servers are friendly and knowledgeable. Daily soups are different and tasty. The legume soup was spicy and fresh. The chicken panini well seasoned and chicken moist. I would reccommend this lunch venue for freshness, value and overall a great place for luncheon with friends. My two friends ordered the vegetable wraps and loved them. The only drawback is: it is very busy and the noise level bothersome. However there is an upstairs room, although sparsely furnished is much quieter and OK for business meetings.

Firstly, DO NOT GET THE BLT panini. It tastes horrible and greasy and is made with crushed up bacon bits. The house salad that comes as a starter to all sandwiches is great and fresh. My friends sandwiches and salads tasted great and fresh as we all shared I got to try many menu options. Wouldn't recommend the cappuccino as it tasted old and watery. Our server was very short with us offered no suggestions when asked. We had heard from friends that the service was always great, so we were disappointed.

This is a small spot, with some great, out of the ordinary options for lunch. Sure you can get a soup and sandwich deal, but this is not your everyday sandwich. Great ingredients, and creative compilations is what sets this venue above the rest.Come in before noon to ensure you get a seat as it fills up fast and is only open for lunch service. Speed of service is reliant on just how busy it is. Be patient, take your time, and enjoy. This isnt Subway, so know that sometimes quality takes time. Always worth the wait.
