Food tasty. Service is ridiculous. I'm watching right now one girl's on her phone another one is eating toast food is sitting up there getting cold. At one point there were six of them standing there and I could see the food getting cold on the warmer read more

Terrific breakfast and lunch spot that offers great food that will meet most dietary needs. Their vegetarian, vegan, and gluten free option are a plus. The pot coffee is good, not watery which is important to me. Check them out, it's good quality food. read more

We stopped by for coffee and loved the casual vibe. The bakery has a tonne of great food and a variety of gluten free options. The gluten free chocolate brownie was one of the best I ever had. Chewy, fudgy, chocolaty and so good! Our coffees were just about right and we had a good time just chilling in the patio. The place was very busy over the weekend but servers did their best to get everything we needed. A lot of regulars came in and it looked like a fun place! read more

I had heard great things about this place but was disappointed. The service was fine, but the food was just meh. My husband got oil and vinegar for his salad, but the vinegar had a bug in it. Our waitress brought a second bottle, but it too had a big in it. Bugs aside, the food was nothing to write home about. read more

Best place for breakfast in Chesterton hands down. We eat here every time we're in town visiting family and are never let down. We've always been sat quickly and the service is always great and attentive. Food is tremendous and reasonably priced. I probably like the blueberry pancakes best but, honestly, everything I've had on the menu u is awesome. Fresh squeezed OJ is a must. Honestly don't go anywhere else in town for breakfast. This is where I grew up and so I've been to all the places and you can't do any better than this place. read more

Food here is a cut a above, we visited yesterday for Fathers Day and the staff was hopping! . Our waitress noticed we didn't have anyone taking care of our table and offered to hook us up. She was great! We sat outside and it was a perfect solution to accommodate my youngest who has Autism, and can't be around a ton of bustling noise. Thank you for your service Third Coast Spice! this is the second time being there, and not the last time ! . read more

We came in close to their closing and were worried they might not seat us. No problem they were very welcoming. We got 2 cobb salads and I loved mine. Husband thought it was just ok. I would give them a 5 star for mine and a 4 for my husband. Husband always just puts olive oil on his salads and I think that is why I liked mine better. The dressing was delish. read more

This place deserves a much higher rating than 3.9! They have freshly squeezed OJ made to order (super fantastic). The other juices are great too. We've been their twice and the breakfast was amazing we cleaned our plates. The service is wonderful too! read more

I heard your add on a radio. I chose to try it since I have breakfast often in the area. Unfortunately, this restaurant is priced out of my league. For $13.95 for 2 eggs, 2 bacon, hash browns and 1 slice of toast. Coffee $3.25 nearly $19 (inc tax) for this. Other restaurants in the area are significantly less and give at least 2 slices of bread and 3 to 4 slices of bacon. read more

I love coming to this place because breakfast is always delicious ! I got the Golden latte and Archie's special. The food was very well prepared and the latte had some black pepper in it and turmeric that is so unique I just love ordering it every time. They have great options for kids to order and everyone always comes out satisfied. I love that you can also choose the pastures they have in front of you want something off the menu. Parking is super convenient as it's located in a little strip. Service is always great and we get our food right away. This is such a cute place for breakfast and quality food! read more

Excellent service and very clean restaurant. The portion sizes were very generous. I had the florentine omelet and I loved the carmelized onions. The homemade bread is excellent as well as the fresh squeezed orange juice. read more

Cost! Three of us ate breakfast at this place and will not return again. Breakfast, 3 waters , 1 coffee and 1 latte came to a whopping $88. There were no steaks on the table mind you! Two omelettes pancakes, hash browns, eggs etc... If your traveling on a budget steer clear of this place...!!! read more

Solid breakfast joint! A good spot to stop before a hike in the dunes. The service was good and they allowed our puppy on the patio. I ordered the BYO omelette which allowed unlimited toppings for a flat fee, which is awesome. Came with potatoes and toast but I ordered a small side of pancakes. Didn't need them! They were decent (a smidge dry) and had to ask for the cinnamon butter but alright. They didn't have the morning glory pancakes anymore to my dismay. but the toast was amazing! And the homemade jam was delicious and I'm not even a jam person. Bread is Made locally I believe. Next time I would just get the combo. The omelette was great! And the hash brown potatoes were tasty too. My husband got the biscuits and he loved the gravy. Overall, we will def be back before hiking! read more

Great coffee, cream served in actual metal containers. Biscuits were made from scratch, gravy was sausage and spot on flavor wise. Hashbrowns were nice and crispy. Aaa staff, which was fast and friendly. Nice lunch counter and seating for about 60ish. Quick stop off the express way. Worth the stop. read more

Went here on a Thursday morning to get some breakfast food. I enjoyed their corned beef hash and an iced matcha latte. Standard, solid breakfast. Eggs perfectly cooked. The biscuit was pretty good, have had better but definitely still enjoyed it. The iced matcha latte was one of the best I've ever had, surprised me how good it was. Saw lots of healthy options on the menu that I'd like to try in the future. My partner got the grilled cheese and I took a bite of it... wow! One of the best grilled cheeses I've ever had. Our waitress was kind and food came out quickly. We sat outside on the patio since we had a dog with us and they brought the dog a bowl of water. Overall, great experience! read more

Staff was friendly, food was delicious and healthy- I asked for some accommodations and changes because I recently had oral surgery, and they did everything I asked them to do. Thank you so much- we will be back next time we are in the area! read more

Great staff great atmosphere great menu options. A must visit for breakfast and lunch. Ruben needs a little work but overall great food happy to go again and try everything on the menu read more

Had omelette and hash browns that were so oily that I could not finish it. Sadly, the only thing I enjoyed was the gluten free toast. I had high hopes for this restaurant. read more

Arrived at 12pm party of 2, Very small establishment took 15min to be seated no big deal it was pretty full so understandable. Waited 20min to place order this is unacceptable service is key to any business I assume they total forgot about us unless we were to brown but will give them the benefit of the doubt. They brought us water after the 22 minutes waited another 5 brought us another water.... Then wanted to just take our drink order but after 27 minutes we were ready its breakfast and all menu.... And fyi our server was carrot top. Ordered the over easy eggs with sausage and the ball n chain ordered the buttermilk pancakes can't go wrong with breakfast was a little skeptical as service is bad so kept it simple. Order came in only thing wrong was we said hash browns not a side of bacon. Food- eggs a little to under done but ok, hash browns were super gross n greasy toast was toast and the bacon do they fry it was like peanut brittle, smores latte was ok. Ambiance is bright but will not be returning as there way better option near by. read more

5 stars for food, 0 stars for service. The food here is great but wow, the service is almost non existent. Received the absolute minimum of service, by seating us, giving us water and bringing what we ordered. Not a single time did anyone come by to refill empty water glasses or warm up cold coffee. And they definitely had enough staff. At one point, there were more employees than staff but we never saw anyone go around warming up coffees or refilling waters. I have no idea what they were all doing but they definitely were not taking care of their customers. After finishing our meal, we sat for about 10minutes before someone brought us our check. Took another 7-8 min for them to take it back with the card. Thats when we found out you could pay at a counter. Nobody told us that. Very disappointing experience. read more

Amazing little cafe, tucked away in a strip mall, with the most glorious traditional and non traditional breakfast food options! We stopped by here during a trip from Chicago to Holland, MI for a quick brunch. Third Coast Spice Cafe has such a welcoming atmosphere, and this is reflected in their friendly staff (who handled the brunch rush hour with grace), the selection of toys and story books that they have for the lil ones, and a menu that declares that they'd be happy to cater to all dietary preferences (vegan, vegetarian, meat eaters, gluten free, etc). We were seated at a table for 4, after a wait for about 5-10 minutes around 12 PM on a Saturday. My fiancé and I ordered coffee drinks (mochas and lattes), a madras curry with chicken and brown rice, morning glory flapjacks for the table to share, and our friends ordered a BYO omelette with a bunch of veggies, cheese, and avocado. The madras chicken curry was so delicious - a mixture of chicken and veggies in a delicately spiced coconut based curry, served over perfectly cooked brown rice. The curry was a bit bland at first, but was easily fixed with a sprinkle of salt. The morning glory flapjacks were one of the best I've ever eaten, perfect lil fluffy clouds stuffed with pecans and cranberries, served with a delicious cinnamon butter and whipped cream. Our friends reported positively on their omelette as well. Our coffee drinks were also very tasty and well made. For just under $15 a person (including tip), this Cafe was also very easy on the wallet. I'd definitely make a detour to come by here the next time I'm in Michiana. read more

We tried this place for the first time today and it definitely won't be our last!! Everything was delicious, the Hot Buffalo Hash was seasoned perfectly, the toast was great with the butter and jelly. My wife had the mushroom omelette with blueberry pancakes.... Amazing read more

My, did I enjoy my meal here. It was the waitress' recommendation, it could not have been better. Perfect healthy vegetarian option full of flavor and quite filling. The chai latte was very good and full of spices (a plus that it's served in a to-go cup). If ever in the area would love to return, ooh and Sheryll was the icing on the cake, full of personality still happy and attentive despite being short staffed, they must be SO happy to have her. Kudos!!! read more

Three stars seems low for the quality of food and service for this restaurant, but 4 stars seems high because I gave 2 other restaurants in Chesterton (Octave Grill and Red Cup Cafe) that have better food a 4-star rating. We stopped here for lunch and got the Heartland (roast beef with carmelized Cajun onions) and a burger with Poblano salsa, carmelized onions, and avocado on a pretzel bun. The Burger was good, but I was disappointed that the Poblano salsa didn't have more heat and more flavor. I thought that the food at Octave Grill was better but they aren't open for lunch. The service was friendly and fast so it was an easy place to stop off I-94. read more

Awesome food! Service was friendly and I'll definitely be back to try the rest of the menu.

Third Coast offers consistently delicious, healthy food options which never disappoint! It's a wonderful restaurant to have in our town.

Stopped here after finishing the 3 Dune challenge and so glad we did! My husband and I both had sandwiches (he had Mediterranean and I had the chicken with cabbage slaw on pretzel bun) and they were AMAZING! The breads are all homemade and beyond yummy! Check it out if you're in the area! read more

On our way out of town, we stopped at the Third Coast Spice Café in Chesterton for breakfast. We're glad we did! Situated in a strip mall not far from the I-94 freeway, it was a step above other cafés. Though it has the usual breakfast fare, it was done with care and an added touch. For example, cheeses go beyond cheddar and American; peppers go beyond just bell. My wife had the Florentine Omelet which included balsamic tomatoes, caramelized onions, spinach and asiago cheese. I had the Garden Omelet which included roasted red bell peppers, caramelized onions, artichoke hearts, balsamic tomatoes, spinach and Swiss cheese; I also got a side of peppered bacon. Our meals were outstanding. The wait staff was prompt and courteous and the prices were reasonable. If you're traveling along I-94 in northern Indiana and looking for breakfast or lunch, give Third Coast Spice Café a try. I don't think you'll be disappointed. read more

The food was so delicious. Salmon, chicken, salads, many vegetarian options and the staff were so helpful and friendly. Highly recommend!

A hidden gem. We have driven back and forth from Michigan to Chicago and never knew this place existed. Now we do! And we will be back! Great coffee/barista beverages and the breakfast options were plentiful and yummy. We had fancy coffees and omelets which we totally enjoyed. They had gluten free bread too!! And the service made the whole experience even more enjoyable with a friendly and charming server. read more

I can't believe it has taken me this long to write a Yelp review of this place. Third Coast Spice Cafe is one of my absolute favorite breakfast spots. We don't live close by but are sure to stop in when we are in the area and sometimes drive out of our way. We typically come on the weekend and it usually busy. Make sure you come early or be prepared to wait for a few minutes. The have both indoor and outdoor seating and the decor has splashes of orange that is sure to brighten your mood. Over the years we have ordered several things from the menu. My favorite is the morning glory pancakes (orange, cranberries, and pecans) and my husband always gets the third coast omelette. Even though this place is a bit pricey, the food and staff make up for it and keep us coming back for more. read more

Delicious and creative breakfast dishes. Service is professional and friendly. You may have to wait a bit on Saturdays and Sundays, but it is worth it. read more

Wow. What an amazing, delicious cafe! We were driving through town and decided to stop here for a sandwich. GLUTEN FREE! Let me just say, if you are gluten free, this is a MUST stop. They make their own gluten free bread! Say what?! I think 99% of the gluten free bread I have had in my life, the restaurant got it from some random grocer and not in-house. That was an incredibly nice touch! We even bought a loaf to go! The sandwiches were outstanding. Super fresh. Filling. Full of flavor! They also feature some local soda in bottles! What a cute place! read more

Food was great-perfect sized portions and all tasted wonderful. I got pancakes and bacon and a s'mores latte, my husband got the third coast omelette. Service was wonderful, attentive and friendly. Overall a cute little cafe! Glad we popped in! read more

We found this place on Yelp while searching for good places to eat breakfast since we were passing this town. Place looks great, atmosphere is very lively and energetic, and the employees are very young people, some of them probably not even in their 20'. That being said, I was expecting a much better service. Place is fairly small and there were at least 7 servers working at the moment but we waited for our food ( two eggs sunny side up and an omelette) for 35 minutes. Nobody asked us about coffee refill, or anything while we waited. At one point I also ordered something else from the menu, but due to extended wait I had to cancel it. On a side note- food was delicious, everything was very tasty but small portions as well. I think that this place has a huge potential, but it needs customer service upgrade asap. read more
