Food and service were both great. It's a little "hole in the wall" spot inside an office building that likely gets most of its customers from the surrounding offices. We came later in the afternoon on a Friday so I think we just beat the lunch rush. Unfortunately they were out of the soup we wanted...but we picked something else and were extremely pleased. My daughter and I both got the chicken rice bowl to go and it was great! Everything was fresh and delicious. Great little spot to grab a quick and delicious bite if you're in the area. read more

Rox Cafe - Chicken Rice Bowl - Cafes Near Me - Silver Spring, Maryland

Heads up -- your GPS will probably have you park on the back of the building... but don't do that. Just park in the front and avoid the reserved spaces (if everything isn't full). Rox Cafe is located in the Colesville Business Park, and it's on the front side. These little cafes connected to businesses are worth exploring, I tell ya! The ladies in here were very friendly, and they have great prices. They have sandwiches, smoothies, desserts, drinks, the works. One sandwich stood out, and it was a breakfasty one called the Bernard sandwich. It was described as having egg whites, spinach, turkey, a special mayo, and more on rye bread. It... was... DELICIOUS. I came to find out later that it was named after a pretty regular customer who came up with that. So awesome! This is isn't close to home, but for anyone who is in the area or wants a quiet change in scenery, they've got wifi. Work there, I think it's great! read more

This was my first eating here. I wanted to try it out based on other reviews. It's a basic cafe, but the ladies who run it are delightful. I had the Maryland Wrap. It was delicious and full of seafood. I will definitely be back! read more

Ok this place needs to be recognized for amazing food. The oversized portions will fill you up. Rox staff are fast and very friendly. Located in the same area we are working what a perfect dinner style to break from work. Did I forget the prices are better than anywhere around! read more

Great little cafe for a quick breakfast or lunch, or even just to grab some snacks and drinks to go! I headed here right after a Doctor's appt nearby. They have a wide selection on their breakfast/lunch menu, I have attached photos of the menu and of all the snacks and drinks they provide. They have 6 groups of tables w/chairs in the cafe. No seating outside. Loved the Corn Chowder, delish! Clean establishment, friendly staff, lots of seating. They also do DoorDash delivery. Would come back again. read more

I saw Rox had a 5 star average but confession time; the main reason I came was I needed to get a bunch of easy-to-eat-without-silverware-and-dishes lunches for the crew moving our stuff into our new house and I didn't want McDonalds. I am so glad we came here though! I normally don't get very excited about sandwiches but I had trouble picking from the delectable sounding choices and the one I ended up with, the grilled cranberry chicken wrap, was SO good! The bite I had of hubby's roast beef was also terrific. The three movers who chose chicken salad all said it was great (I totally plan on trying the curried chicken salad next time!) I think we will be ordering lunch here a lot going forward. Prices are reasonable and the food is delicious and some is actually quite healthy! Hubby said the folks were very nice when he went to get the food. I can't wait to eat my way around their menu! read more

Good and tasty omelette, crazy affordable, good service. Not much atmosphere but a good place to post up on a workday.

Tried calling to place an order and got hung up on several times after asking to place an order for delivery. Tried to give them the benefit of the doubt but after that kind of attitude after several attempts I would prefer to take my business elsewhere. read more

Get the SOUP! I know it's summertime but get indoors into the AC and grab the chicken noodle soup! I came for the chicken parmigiana panini but as I waited about EIGHT different orders of soup were picked up. I don't want to miss out on a movement so I bought a cup too! It overshadowed my panini - my husband got the smoked salmon wrap - everything was good but the soup is the keeper! You have to call to see what they have for the day - something tells me everything here is delicious- I'll be back! read more

Imagine my surprise to discover that a friendly affordable and tasty lunch spot is just a block or so behind my house! Located in an office building directly across the street from Trader Joe's, this unassuming cafe is much more than it seems. Not just a lunch counter. The couple who own and operate this sandwich shop have an understanding of a modern menu and enjoy playing with flavor combinations. They also grasp that a restaurant focused on a lunch rush must pay attention to what they charge, so most meals will be around $10. This includes their best selling crab and grilled cheese sandwich on sourdough bread. Oh my! If a sandwich isn't what you need they offer two soups each day- corn chowder and a rotation of other soups. I tried and enjoyed their cream of crab and had a delicious sample of the chowder. My next visit will be for a salad, as the list is extensive and I can see the creativity in the ingredients. The dining area is spare, but comfy enough. I'm guessing that most of the customers take their food to go. We opted to eat there and were entertained by the owner's young daughter. I asked her if she was a waitress and was told, "no, I'm not in school yet. This is my house and you are guests!" Then I was invited to meet her daughter, a well loved babydoll who apparently loves to twirl. Very sweet! Rox Cafe has reminded me that sometimes the best discoveries are found in one's own back yard. read more

A little pricey for a store that really didn't have a whole lot of options. I got an iced coffee and it was hot coffee poured over some ice so it was more "room temp" coffee. Decent taste, just not iced like you would expect. They also only accept cash until you hit a certain price range and since covid, I feel like no one just has a few bucks in their pocket. There were also lots of empty boxes of snacks they offer but didn't have. read more

Good service ! Like the wrap and salad I ordered! Maybe skip out on the smoothie pretty hard to down!

Came for a quick bite to eat after an appointment. This spot was surprisingly very tasty ! The staff are warm and friendly. The place is very clean. We ordered a chicken wrap soup and a salad. They were all very good. Stop by! read more

Rox Cafe - Rox Signature Salad Yummmy! - Cafes Near Me - Silver Spring, Maryland

COVID-19 tips: - Hand sanitizer station at the door - Cafe was mostly empty so easy to eat in and social distance - Staff is professional and masked So I was starving this morning and looking for a sandwich. I wouldn't have noticed Rox Cafe was there without the parking lot signs but I'm so glad I did! Ordered a Chicken Parmesan Panini for $5.95. Not only was it steaming hot, fresh and delicious but it was HUGE. They also wrapped it in foil so it's easy to takeaway. Paired with a bottled drink and cold water and I was a happy camper. If I lived in this area I would definitely come back. read more

This cool spot is operated by a husband and wife. The morning that I stopped in for a sandwich he was there by himself. Although it was a little busy he was professional and attentive. My sandwich was perfect and made the way I liked it. I will stop by again next time I'm in the area and try their lunch menu items, because they seem to have a lot of options. read more

Rox Cafe - Salmon and crab.. YUM! - Cafes Near Me - Silver Spring, Maryland

Rox Cafe! A gem in the food industry offering fresh ingredients and generously whole cooking. Their sandwiches are packed with layers of flavor. My daughter describes the Italian Cold cut as delicious and juicy with rich tasting condiments and dressing. I have had the Chicken Cranberry Wrap is a gourmet creation that is a party in the mouth that hits on all the taste zones of the Tongue. Today they were out of the Corn and Crab Chowder. I have eaten the Turkey Chili instead. Wow! I counted 2 types of beans. I'm too full to eat my Crab salad, but just know it will be delicious read more

Rox Cafe - Crab Salad - Cafes Near Me - Silver Spring, Maryland

Sweet little restaurant offering a variety of foods! Everyone was incredibly friendly and helpful!

Just went back for a third time and got another greek salad with chicken-- I am as happy as I can be. Such a filling salad (with a lot of chicken) and all the veggies were fresh. Super content again with Rox Cafe and I will be back soon probably for another salad and maybe a home made cookie. Looking forward to seeing the team again! read more

Great place for a sandwich! Quick service and tasty food. Would come back again.

My wife and I ate here for the first time. I had read the reviews and we had high expectations. The Rod Cafe managed to exceed our expectations! This place is great! The food was tasty, high quality, and a very good value. There were so many appealing items on the menu that I had a hard choosing. The place is clean, the owner is friendly, and I am definitely going back again and again. read more

Delightful little spot. Incredibly friendly staff, great prices, lots of options for people who eat gluten free. Definitely will be back

I never write reviews, but I wanted to take the time to make sure more people know about Rox Cafe. I came here with my two young children and we ordered two sandwiches to share. The food was delicious, the place was clean and comfortable, and the owner was extremely friendly and engaging with my kids. He gave us information about events in December including Pizza & Pasta Night, Stir Fry Night, and Gingerbread House Decorating. This is a bit out of the way for me, but if I were closer I would be here a lot! I did have some trouble finding the location. It's across from the plaza with Trader Joe's in an unexpected business building. Once I got up there, I saw the signs, but I thought I was lost at first. read more

Excellent food/service! Stumbled on this place as my wife was seeing her doctor. Glad I did!! Owner used to manage a country club, where the recipes are inspired...you get the same quality of food of the country club at a fraction of the price!! read more

Found this little gem today and SO happy I did. The staff is personable and courteous, the dining and prep areas are spotless and the food is delicious. I found it easy to find and very accessible off Colesville Rd. (FYI, it is situated in an office building). I look forward to trying many more things on their menu, including the smoothies. Great service and great quality -- you can't beat that! read more

I ordered the Balsamic chicken sandwich, curried chicken sandwich, and mozzarella and chicken salad for delivery. 30 minutes before delivery was scheduled I got a call from them saying they are very sorry but they will be late, which I told them was not a problem. They were only 8 minutes late but I really appreciated that they called with a heads up. They even put in two free huge and delicious cookies as a way of saying sorry. Anyways, the food was was delicious. My favorite was the balsamic chicken sandwich. Seriously, a must try. It's finals week and this gave me sustenance, so that I could pretend like I was using my time wisely to study. Oh and they forgot to give me salad dressing for my salad which I hadn't noticed since that was going to be the next day's meal but they called back 20 minutes after delivering the food to say that they will be back to drop it off. THE CUSTOMER SERVICE at this place is amazing! read more

My daughter and I stopped in for lunch. This cafe is super clean and bright. The owner and his wife were very friendly. We ordered a cup of corn chowder to share and he very graciously offered us samples of the homemade split pea soup. Not being a fan of peas, I was skeptical, but it was delicious! Would definitely order next time. The corn chowder was very good as were our wraps. Definitely recommend! read more

This is one of the cleanest little cafes in all of Silver Spring. The owner is super friendly and the food is always so fresh! I eat here on a weekly basis, and know that the food is always perfect.

Definitely the best food delivery option in the area. Fresh food, very reliable service.

Rox Cafe is serving dinner. First time there and was greeted by the owner who was very accommodating. He told us all about the freshness of the food and was very helpful when I had to order certain things differently from the menu due to diet restrictions. The dinning area is no frills, very clean and modern. We were very pleasantly surprised with a sample desert to try at the end of our meals. No skimping on the amount of food either. With many interesting food combinations on the menu. I will go back to try another item, and also use this cafe for its catering service. If you want it, the Rox Cafe will try to supply it! read more
