The Food for Lane county Grilled Cheese Experience brought me to Blended to try their offering,…read morealthough I was interested based on some photos I'd seen of their sandwiches online. I got the grilled cheese sandwich offering, but also decided to try their Dubai brownie and a pistachio hot chocolate. First, my only issue, it was a little confusing to order. There was a kiosk where you order yourself in one window, then in the next window there was a spot you could order with someone. I don't know if you could order the same things at both sections, I'd assume so. But this is a very minima thing. As soon as I was ordering an employee greeted me and if I hadn't figured it out I'm sure I could've asked. Now the good stuff- the sandwich was amazing. I believe it's just offered for this month, but I'd happily try their other offerings. The flavors were balanced, it was a good portion, it was hit, fresh ingredients. The Dubai brownie and hot chocolate were also excellent. Rich, chocolate Lu, everything you want. They make the pistachio sauce for the hot chocolate in house from what I was told, and i could taste it. Adding a couple nice espresso shots would make an amazing mocha too. They have a pretty extensive list of Dubai items, so if you haven't tried it or you love it they have a great selection from cookies and cheesecakes to strawberry cups and the hot chocolate. It's set in the 5th street public market, a couple chairs and tables around. When it's busy it might be hard to find a seat, but it's a neat location and easy to take to go. Definitely worth checking out!

After seeing a picture of their deli Reuben sandwich on FB, I had to go and have one today! Staff…read morewas really welcoming, and friendly. Ordered the sandwich, and a drink (energy drink, of a brand I have never tried) My Reuben arrived quickly, and I was also given a pickle and some napkins (if you order this, ask for extra napkins... you will need them!) :) Sandwich was huge, loaded with corned beef and pastrami. The rye bread was on point too! Delicious... I will be ordering this again! Energy drink was interesting... good flavor, although I could not say what flavor it was, lol! Pickle was good too! After finishing the sandwich, I had to get a couple of Macarons too. I have never had them before, and wanted to see what all the hype was about. I think I have a new favorite cookie, lol... I will be craving these, very good! Highly recommended!

Took a few…read moreminutes to get my bowls but could watch them being assembled so it wasn't like they were forgotten. I did get one of my two bowls before the person in front of me did, but only a few minutes in difference, and probably because we got similar ones? I got the pitayum and the pb everbowl. If you are a peanut butter fan get the pb. If more tropical is your vibe the pitayum is better. I liked both equally, just depends on the mood I am in. I do wish there was an option to change the topping and not get charged extra for the substitution. Sometimes you just want a different fruit, or the coconut flakes aren't calling your name. I understand that sometimes there is a cost difference, but if it's an equivalent switch it feels like it should be okay. Overall a refreshing sweet treat that is conveniently located downtown. Definitely will be back to try out more creations!

I totally appreciate this local spot with many homemade items (down to the almond milk!). They have…read moregluten-free and vegan baked goods and a nice selection of savory and sweet food items as well. The toast on the side of an egg dish felt homemade (or at least locally sourced). The service was friendly and they have a welcoming little space that doesn't feel too crowded and feels nice to linger in. BUT the thing I can't get past is the price. I thought maybe because they make many of their ingredients or because it could be organic or gluten-free or something that drives the cost up? But then I looked at other comparable places around town: also locally-owned and homemade-focused. CPR is still way more expensive! $7.50 for a 12-ounce mocha PLUS $1.25 to sub oat milk. That's $8.75 for a small drink. The most I can find alternative milk costing per drink is $0.75 in town. No matter how good your food is or how much you've put into it, I cannot justify spending $8.75 for a 12 ounce treat more than once or twice a year. I'm sorry I can't visit more often. :(

If you're in Eugene and want top-tier coffee and great daytime food, this is the spot!

I wasn't sure if Cork & Kale was a "real" restaurant, or just one for hotel guests. Turns out it…read moreis more of a hotel restaurant, as evidenced by the atypical seating arrangements, limited menu options, and the "traveler-adjusted" prices. I don't think they are expecting people not staying at the hotel to eat here. That being said, the food and overall experience was solid. I'd definitely recommend the place to those staying in the hotel. At 7pm on a Saturday, we were the only ones there, besides a couple people at the bar. This is probably due to the hotel being new and not very busy. Kicked off with a chips & guac ($10) that was really good and nicely presented, served with blue corn chips. I enjoyed the shrimp tacos ($13) which had a decent bit of heat. The shells was some crunchy-soft hybrid, strange but not bad. There was a bit too much sauce which dribbled out when taking a bite, but overall it was a nice satisfying meal. The cobb salad ($15) was also well put-together and a good amount of food. The breakfast options looked pretty good..quinoa & spinash breakfast hash ($9), egg white/avocado wrap w/ fresh mozzerella cheese, cilantro slaw & chile verde ($12), could be worth stopping in if you're in the area and looking to avoid crowds...

Maybe the burrito is better? The ingredients definitely tasted fresh and they did have healthier options for those who don't want typical fried food at a bar, but the dish was very bland besides the sweet teriyaki sauce. I am all for new places opening in the area so I do want to try this place again to see if it gets better. I will update my review as soon as I try it again because I like what they are trying to do, I just think for the price it could be a little more flavorful and definitely heated through more.
