Small but quality menu. I tried the veggie scramble. Large portion but not very flavorful. My husband had the burrito with bacon. It was quite tasty. Easy parking. Friendly staff. Coffee was excellent. Seems like a great place to go for take-home dinner. My only complaint was that it took ~10 minutes to get our food. Everything was piping hot and fresh (not pre-made or microwaved). However if I am "on the go," I don't know if I'd want to wait that long. Perhaps I would call ahead with my order. I plan to return in the future. read more

great food, great people, definitely deserves more business. owner works in store aswell, very professional

The workers are really nice. However, my (dairy-free) cappuccino tasted burnt. They said they had also run out of one of the milks so it wasn't really a cappuccino. Even though I didn't like the end-product, they were really good about keeping me informed. At least they told me they ran out of the milk. read more

Fast and friendly service and the best lunches ever. The pasta salads are amazing and the hot sandwiches are just fantastic.

I always buy Italian sodas here. I go for the blackberry or raspberry. Today, the bf got a Mocha Blast, it was delish. Like someone blended a fudge pop with coffee. Also bought a chocolate raspberry cheesecake, which, like everything else, was to die for. Please give yourself an UPGRADE and start coming here. read more

I want to thank Melissa and staff for accommodating our breakfast this morning. Everything turned out great. We were pleased with the final outcome. Food was delicious and fresh. Look forward to see you in the future for our events. read more

One of my favorite spots for lunch in Merced! Hands down the best homemade soups in town--I also love the turkey pesto sandwich on a croissant, and the snickerdoodles! The frequency with which I have lunch here is a little ridiculous. Great food and friendly, excellent service! read more

I absolutely love it here best White Mocha in Merced! Breakfast burritos are mine and my husband's favorite! The owners and workers are so very nice and welcoming definitely recommend this place! Lunch is so good as well, I love the area super nice! read more

So good! First time visiting today and I'll definitely be going back! I believe they we're the owners I met today, so sweet and helpful! I got the chai tea latte, yum it's perfect! Also got the sausage breakfast burrito and I'm in heaven! Can't wait to try the Chinese chicken salad, loaded potato salad and macaroni salad (I got small sizes of each to try them out!) Great menu and selection, I'll be going back to try more for sure! read more

Amazing food!! Definitely recommend any of the sandwiches great place for breakfast or a brunch date. Great service, keep in mind that during COVID you can only place orders online and over the phone. read more

Excellent service. Dine in was closed but there were a couple tables outside. Owner even came out to ask how we were doing. I had the All Grown Up Grilled Cheese. It was awesome. I'm going to go back sometime and try one of the specialty teas. read more

My family and I stopped here on our way to Lake Tahoe for breakfast. We were kindly greeted upon entry and felt very welcome. Our order was taken and I was offered to customize my drink to my own liking. The breakfast burritos were delicious as well as the brownies we took on the road for dessert. Everything on display appeared so appetizing with wholesome ingredients. Definitely a place to return to. 2 thumbs up for sure! read more

The grilled cheese there is the best! The service is quick and the staff is amazing. I highly recommend this place.

First time at Joe's. Was greeted with a (mask hidden) smile and attentive service. I had some really good clam chowder and a western bacon cheeseburger that puts fast food to shame. I am looking forward to my next visit. Definitely a hidden gem here in Merced. read more

Had the special California eggs Benedict LOTS & LOTS of avocado. Hollandaise sauce was awesome with a hint of lime. Waitress was super helpful really nice place to stop for breakfast.... read more

I live in Fresno down the road, every single time I visit Merced I make a stop at Joe On the Go. Occasionally I'll consider another place but I just can't get enough, I keep choosing Joe. Literally everything at this place is delicious. Unique flavors and a very well thought out menu. I'd consider moving to Merced just for this little breakfast and lunch place. read more

Quick, easy, and yummy every time I walk though the door. My favorite is the Chicken Pesto sandwich!!

I love the food. But not the snobby lady with her nose in the air at the check register. The lady literally had a fit in front of me for requesting to pay separately my phone order when I had originally requested it hat way. Not the first time either, this lady always has something going on. No one else was in line either. I know food business very well. this lady is probably better off prepping that showing her not so smiley face at customers. read more

All I have to say is.... Grown Up Grilled Cheese.... .BOMB! It was a little pricier than I expected it to be but the sandwich was delicious. Would go again! read more

Will never eat here again...Took my special needs clients to eat out on the patio and while I'm standing in line and my clients (very high functioning clients) are out on the patio,the new co-owner was talking to one of her employees, about them being there. Then she proceeded to talk about other customers as they walked out the door. I watched my salad,being put on the plate with no gloves or washed her hands prior to grabbing the salad..Very rude and insensitive. .Very expensive for the little bit of food you get. My clients weren't disturbing anyone. To talk about All the customers who are keeping your business open,is TACKY!! read more

I came here expecting a decent sandwich but that was definitely not what I recieved. I ordered a veggie sandwich thinking that it might have some veggies but what I recieved was a $10 joke. There was nothing in it except tomatoes,onion, a ton of lettuce and a couple of rock hard pieces of avacado; what a complete letdown. The fact that it took forever to make such a dismal sandwich only added to the disappointment. I have had better sandwiches at subway for less money what a waste. read more

I've been stopping here after Jogging the 3mile Bear Creek trail. The coffee is great, the have vitamin water and poweraide too. The owner Greg is friendly and stands right up front greeting and serving all of his customers. Wife Mellisa cooking just behind him. This is Starbucks quality with people that are actually friendly and talkative. If your looking for a regular stop coffee shop, where they know you and what u drink, this is it. Kinda the Cheers of coffee. It will be my regular after jogging stop from now on. read more

I've tried this place before and the food was good and so was the service. However, today I went with my coworkers and one of them had a hair in her sandwich which probably happens to all restaurants. She couldn't complain because we were short on time and it took them over 30 minutes to give us our food. My sandwich was crazy it was all bread hardly any meat and the bread was so thick you would think we were back in the medieval times. Also, not only the food was bad but also the man taking the order. My coworker asked him if there was a light menu and he responded " As you can see nothing here is light!". That was very rude of him instead of giving suggestions on how to make it lighter he responded with that. I don't think I will go there again. read more

Went here yesterday for lunch. Great little place, comfortable, clean, friendly, great servcie and food. When i open my bakery, I would model this set up. Perfect! I ordered the chicken caeser salad and my sister had the turkey club and, y neice had the Italian grinder panini. We were all very happy with our meals! I will go back for sure. read more

Always go in on Saturdays for my breakfast burrito. They are friendly and the place is clean. I have not tried their other food choices. The coffee isn't my favorite but their burritos are yummy. read more

Food was no good got us sick beware!service was horrible! Enough said! I won't be back anytime soon. The coffee was good and the desert too but that's about it the food is not up to par. read more

This review is for Chef Melissa's catering service. My fiancee and I booked Melissa to do our outdoor October wedding. Hands down, she did a fabulous job. Her staff arrived promptly and set up our wedding to perfection. I have to say I don't think there was a detail she overlooked, from creating custom menus for the day to setting perfectly arranged tables to serving a gorgeous array (cheese display, pasta, market salad, chicken breast, rolls). Staff mingled and poured wine and champagne for guests. Melissa also coordinates with party rental companies and creates a timeline to keep your wedding on track. I highly recommend Chef Melissa for your event or wedding!! read more

LOVE THIS PLACE. The breakfast is amazing, and the coffee is made well. It's more expensive than going to Jack in the Box or other fast food restaurants, but the quality more than makes up for it. It's cheaper than Starbucks, and more than wins the battle in quality. I will definitely being going back often. read more

Food was amazing!! I ordered the Bacon, egg, cheese croissant and the potatoes with the works!

I usually order the food catered for large meetings and celebrations and everytime we ordered food it was delicious. I ordered the chicken and vegetables and rice. My guests thought I rolled out the red carpet for them. We had as huge luncheon also for over 250 people and again everything was delicious. My organization loves your menu items. You deliver the food fresh and hot. I recommend Chef Melissa! read more

Joe on the Go catering is fantastic. Melissa & Natalie have everything you need for an excellent & worry-free party or event. The food is wonderful & the presentation will make you proud of your choice of Joe on the Go. read more

Solid 5 stars on the food. Freshest of fresh greens and the sandwiches are generously built with all of their ingredients. Always enjoy stopping by Joe's when hungry. read more

Good coffee and friendly service. Nice find on a long road trip.

Excellent food, great coffee, and you can't go wrong with a smoothie on a summer day. I haven't had a bad sandwich there yet. Excellent service and you get it with a smile. Nice atmosphere, not your typical coffee and sandwich joint. Can eat inside or out your choice. Speedy service and excellent customer service. If you want a delicious breakfast or lunch in about the same amount of time as those fast food places, then Joe On the Go is the place to go. Ha Ha! And don't forget, cuz I don't, you can order dinner on the go to feed the family for a great price and you don't have to heat up the kitchen to feed your family a delicious and home cooked meal. All I can say is goodbye fast food hello delicious!!! read more

I have been to this business a few times and thought that I should leave a review as I am very pleased with the food and the customer service! I ordered the "Grilled Italian roast beef" Sandwich. Yum! Their cookies are also yummy too. I will definitely be back. read more

Joe On the Go Cafe - Best chocolate chip cookies ever. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Merced, California

Out-of-towners visiting family and looking for a good coffee place. The staff was very warm and friendly. Their house blend is good (hint of pea berry) and my wife's mocha was good too (not too sweet or overwhelming hot-chocolate taste like many mochas can be). The breakfast burrito was HUGE and AMAZING! I had mine with ham, and my wife had sausage and both were delicious. The chipotle sauce adds a great little kick. Eggs, meat, cheese, potatoes. The ingredients are simple but the execution is flawless! read more
