    Chicken sandwich on Kaiser roll.

    Loved the waffle and chicken sandwich. Veggies were so fresh and I don't know how they make sauce they put on the sandwich but it was so good. Staff were very friendly and helpful! Very cool place, like eating in a tree house!

    I'm familiar with the Maté Factor in Savannah so when I saw one in Manitou Spring I knew it was the perfect stop to grab a quick bite! The decor is eclectic and a bit unique with some indoor seating. Their breads and pastries are all made in-house. They have a much larger menu at this location. I love the build your own sandwich option. I went with the chipotle chicken with cheese on an onion bun. It came with kettle chips and a crunchy pickle spear. I also got a large mango mate, which is one of my absolute favorite drinks! There's a handful of chairs outside that allow you to soak up the sun or relax in the shade.

    My favorite place to eat in Manitou Springs! The food and drinks are beyond amazing! Gluten free bread is available for sandwiches! Their smoothies and juices are to die for! The serve is quick, The restaurant is beautiful! Indoor and outdoor seating available!

    Chicken sandwich

    My friends and I came down from Pike Peak cog railway and it's our first time visit this town. We were hungry after the train ride and spotted this cafe after getting off the shuttle bus. The cafe is not big but the vibe is very cozy. There's no waiter coming to serve you. You can go straight to the counter to place your order and the food will be served to your table. I ordered chicken sandwich which contains avocado and tomato. It tastes fairly good.

    Deli pesto and PBBH

    Food was phenomenal. Had the deli pesto sandwich and PBBH. Both were great. The side of vegetables were really yummy too and the tropical smoothie was refreshing. Service was great and everyone was super friendly. Decorations were very cute and relaxing which were perfect for post hike lunch.

    We didn't try the food but got their mate drink to go. It's refreshing, not too sweet, and a nice thirst quencher to enjoy outside overlooking the stream. It's about $3.75/cup and again is reasonably priced considering it's located on the Main Street in a tourist town.

    Do you have gluten free options?

    Yes, we have gluten free bread for any of the sandwiches. We also have a delicous snack call the Carob Peanut Bar that is gluten-free.

    Loved the location, loved the food, loved the vibe. Loved it all!…read more Starting with the location: It was a beautiful sunny day in a tucked away spot in Manitou when we came to Tava. I have to say, as a food truck, I know you roam, but it's picturesque for you when you're in manitou. But really Tava could be anywhere and I'd come. Food: The food was fresh and cooked to order. Comes with the territory I would assume when you order from a food truck? Admittedly I don't do it often, but apparently I need to. We received the fearless goddess sandwich, a peach smoothie, a berry smoothie and their soup special the tomato bisque. Oh! The fearless goddess came with a side as well so we got the sweet potato fries. The sandwich had fresh jalapeños on it and it added the perfect kick of spice needed to break up how decadent the sandwich was. The sweet potato fries were crispy and the aioli was a great addition to dip them in. The smoothies were refreshing and tasted of real fruit. Don't at me, I've had many a smoothie that tasted artificial. The soup was perfect for my daughter, she loves soup of all sorts. It was warm and cozy. We eat soup all year long in my house hold so I was happy. We enjoyed the seating area outside that had misters going to help cool things down as well. It was a very chill place to watch dogs play across the street at the park, catch some sun and enjoy some great food. This is a solid spot for either lunch or dinner honestly. Your choice.

    After biking by the Tava Truck many times and not having opportunity to stop, I finally went there…read morefor a late lunch. Service - super friendly, with a smile! The Fearless Goddess sandwich - so this event was advertised as being on the healthier side... this sandwich is more on the killer-delicious side. Crisp fresh toasted bread, just the right amount of cheese (plenty but not swimming in cheese grease), tender chicken and tasty sauce...mmm, good. It's huge (for me, anyway), so I enjoyed half and saved the other half for lunch the next day, which was just right. The berry smoothie - another win! It's not cloyingly sweet, and the yogurt and berries had plenty of tang. Creamy yum. I also saved half for the next day, in the freezer, and it thawed just fine. The soup - sandwiches come with a side, so I chose the tomato basil bisque. It was more creamy than veg-tomatoey, and needed a hit of pepper. Not my favorite ever, but my daughter inhaled it. It's enough for a lunch on its own, or in two portions as a side. Overall - pretty good stuff and I will probably head back to try more of the offerings here. It's a solid choice in Manitou!

    Tomato bisque, you can kind of see the berry smoothie. I forgot to take a pic of that

There is public parking across the street and it was $6.99 for two hours. Cute interior! They do warn you the kitchen is very small and it will take some time to make good food, so be prepared to be patient. We ordered a hummus tray as we were starving and that came out quickly and was tasty. It does come with hummus and tzatziki sauce. My husband ordered the buffalo chicken sandwich and he said it was very tasty and the coleslaw was excellent as well I ordered the Southwest quinoa salad with added grilled chicken, I did ask for a 2nd serving of chimichurri sauce, and it was very tasty My niece had the veggie burger and she said it was very good- It was huge and she had to take half of it home. The craft beers were very tasty and I had a glass of wine as I'm not much of a beer drinker They do have a cute outdoor patio as well. Service was attentive, and if we were in the area would definitely be back. Total bill was about $130 before tip and included a total of four entrées, five beers and a glass of wine The menu both for beer and food is QR code so I have uploaded the food menu so you can see what they have. My understanding is the beers to change on rotation.

Our server was super helpful, patient and answered multiple questions. She was a bright spot! The Manitou Burger with cheese was good. It came with chips which were nice but I wish they had fries. Love all the sauces came on the side. My daughter ordered the plain white Mac and Cheese and while I liked it, she didn't like it all. It was too different of a flavor to make this work for most kids. The nachos are huge and queso was delicious. Enjoyed the beer. We wanted to sit outside but it was full. Inside was nice but the music was just way too loud for a decent table conversation. Pro Tip: no kids menu. Server said most kids order plain burger with cheese or plain Mac and cheese or the street tacos plain.
