Picked up late lunch at this spot. Good size parking lot. There was only a handful of people in there at the time 3pm weekday. It was relatively quiet inside. Looks like a good spot to dine in maybe in the future. For food, we got the Turkey club and acai bowl. Turkey club was as good as people say. Turkey was not dry. Sourdough was toasted and not soggy. At first, I thought 3 breads in the sandwich was too much bread but it turns out just right. Comes with cranberry mayo, slice of cheddar cheese, tomato slice, and apple wood smoked bacon. Ratios are good. This is a good Turkey club. I recommend. Acai bowl wasn't bad neither. I got it with almond butter, blueberries, and strawberries. 3 toppings comes with the cost and you pay extra for additional toppings. What we had was good enough for me. I recommend this as well. Hope that helps. read more

We ordered takeout here twice in the past three months and it was consistently wonderful. At some point we will come in and enjoy the restaurant, but we've loved the takeout food we've ordered. Amazing! read more

Has the looks of a great sandwich shop and small market -- like what you might find in a high quality country store. But unfortunately every visit has left me baffled. Saturday morning, they are understaffed with one person juggling taking orders and making drinks and one person in the kitchen. The owner isn't there to help with the rush and upset customers...saw at least 4 customers leave the line. Some people get their coffee ahead of their food orders, others don't. The limited sandwich menu doesn't really execute perfection on anything. Not to say they're all bad, but for a beautiful place like this claiming to have the "best catering in Andover", I wish they were actually the best sandwiches around. Think: Flour Bakery, Tatte, Fromaggio Kitchen in Cambridge, Dave's Fresh Pasta in Somerville. A passionate chef would be worth the investment instead of fancy landscaping and interior remodeling. Really, just a dedicated front of house manager always having a presence could make a huge difference. So much potential- but that's about it. read more

Started out as something high end. Now it's just mediocre at best. It's almost as though the owner is just letting the kids run it as a high school project read more

I had the best chicken sandwich absolutely the best I ever had ! It's very messy but wow it's delicious!!!!! Well worth the mess for sure. Please see my pictures I posted on it so good. The homemade breaded crispy chicken huge cutlet cooked perfectly not dry. The staff very nice and I love the ambiance and very clean place will be back to try other meals read more

Had a lovely lunch w friends this week! Great to have somewhere you can sit outside and enjoy this fall weather too! We had fabulous salads w either salmon or tofu. Service top notch, food on point, great ambience. Ignore any negative comments, this is Andover's best kept secret - the relaunching of the TM as a lunch and dinner destination! read more

We had lunch on the patio. Love sitting outside. Every nice garden area. Umbrellas over every table would be fabulous. Food was good. Hopefully they will serve beer and wine soon. read more

Walked in. Walked out. Place looks like a ghost town inside. Boards are clear , meaning no menu for much offered . I know it's covid but still the whole inside is wine now and nothing much else . When it first opened I liked it . Something is wrong now. Who ever owns it has lost enthusiasm. Hire a new manager to go in there and start making awesome lunch sandwiches! Soups etc. homemade salads. Etc etc. get that place up and running like it should be. There's no sun or sandwich place around except Andover center. You have the people living all around that area ! There's no reason for your bad reviews ! Get Back in the game and work it ! You should have a gold mine there ! People won't go if you don't sell stuff like you use to ! I went to culinary school and I know what needs to be done ! You have the store and location ! You should have lines at breakfast and lunch ! read more

I really want to like this place, i live within walking distance and i would love it if the food was better. Its really a shame because the building it self is so nice and the location is convenient for me. Today we went for lunch and my son got the fried chicken sandwich. one side of the sandwich the chicken was paper thin and the other side it was almost 2in thick the thick side was raw in the center - truly raw. I had the Ruben and it had so much grease i was only able to eat half of it. I have tried this place a number of times in the past few years. I always have a bad experience then say to myself a few months later "their new- they are still figuring things out" and give them another try. Well they are not so new any longer and i continue to have bad experiences. About the only thing that i think it passable is their breakfast sandwiches that and the ice cream. read more

Food is always consistent and fresh. They take good care of us! Even when it's a big order. Huge menu. Little pricey, I wouldn't mind if only the portions were a little bit bigger. But definitely a gem! read more

Nikki's Roast Beef is BUSS'N. Ordered the Super Beef Combo and immediately knew it was a Winner after the first bite....

Great food, great environment! Meal i ordered was incredible, along with the cocktails. Waitress was very nice and timely.

So disappointed this place got rid of its best features in an effort to be "upscale". No more coffee or breakfast. No more seat yourself in a kid friendly environment. Definitely not a place I'll be going to anymore unfortunately. read more

Woman at the front was very nice but I got a smoothie and a turkey sandwich and it was not edible. It's sad I came here years ago and remember it was much better read more

This could be the greatest little place to grab a quick meal and get a bottle of wine to go in all of Andover, but sadly the menu is boring, the kitchen and staff are slow, and the food that does come out tends to be a bit far from perfect. Tonight I ordered an egg white wrap with peppers, onions, and cheese. Simple, right? Unfortunately, the cook doused my eggs in oil. I basically had a bowl of greasy liquid as I was trying to eat this. It totally ruined what could have been a solid meal. If I wanted extra grease I would have chosen any number of fast food restaurants in the Merrimack Valley. Come on, Town Market. You're not a greasy spoon. Hire some cooks who know what they're doing. This one apparently doesn't. And the sweet potatoes in the Alsatian salad, please cook them through so they're not hard. That was the issue at my last visit. (Visit date 10/6/22) read more

I had a salad with chicken. The salad was delicious. The chicken was awful - overcooked, dried almost to the point of crumbling.

Staff was extremely rude and demeaned me calling me a n*****, very upset and will not be visiting again, reported for violations. Food was mediocre at best, boxed and microwave quality. read more

Place was freezing inside. Wife got some kind of tofu salad and the tofu was not edible. I got a burger, ordered it medium and it came well done and had an unusual flavor. This place will never survive!!!!! read more

We had a dinner date (needed to bring a side dish / dessert with little time)! Town Market to the rescue! Look at these pics of great, fresh options we found today. Love this place. Local family-owned. Fresh food always, ice cream, coffee, tea, wine, beer, etc. ** We noticed more people are buying their wine here and opening the bottle on-site for a meal with friends. Cool option. Andover, No. Andover, and No. Reading - let's support this great place. Can't wait until the summer outdoor music, pet-friendly patio, and beer / wine tasting! Here comes Spring. Our whole family loves this place! read more

Let me start by saying......the food and service are FANTASTIC! We have eaten lunch there twice. The one star rating is given due to the chef/owner, some guy wearing a white chef's jacket, he didn't bother to introduce himself. We had eaten at the restaurant a week and a half prior to today's lunch. The first time I was told by the front desk to just seat ourselves on the patio and a server would be out to give us menus. Today we just went directly to the patio. Where we were informed by the server that the restaurant was 'now a full service restaurant' and we had to check in at the front desk. OK. So noted. At this point the bully in the chef's jacket shows up (note, I am NOT impressed, I have a chef's jacket from the now defunct Les Espalier). He rudely explains that they are now 'a FULL service restaurant', and we needed to check in at the front desk...OK, got that from the waitress. When I explained my previous experience he called me a liar! NOT HOW YOU ENDEAR CUSTOMERS! Then I find out he previously drove another female customer to tears by yelling at her for some minor infraction to his self imposed 'rules'. My suggestion? Mr Rude And Demeaning In A Chef's Jacket? STAY IN THE KITCHEN? Let your waitstaff deal with customers. They are more than competent. You have NO people skills! read more

Great restaurant but the dress code for staff is poor. Families go to this restaurant and I could actually see the butt cheeks of the waitress service us. It just seems a bit inappropriate for such a nice place. read more

Slowest place ever. I get it's busy during lunch but damn. Ordered online and went to pick it up and my simple Thai bowl took 45 minutes. Got reemed out by my boss for taking longer than my break was. If you're gonna order make sure it's wayyy ahead of time. SMH read more

Ordered the Main Street sandwich. Sandwich was too soggy to eat as it completely fell apart in my hands after the first bite. Please use butter more sparingly and cook egg yokes longer. read more

Stale pastries and selling store bought "guacamole spread" as "avocado toast". Terrible smoothies too.

Great kitchen/food. Worst management I've ever seen. Not staffed enough at the counter. Same person taking orders, calls, and making certain meals. Ordered pickup and they said 15-20 minutes. I showed up at 20 minutes and waited an additional 40 MINUTES!! Need to get their act together from a management perspective. If it wasn't for the food quality I'd give one star. read more

Its depressing the food is good but the service is just so horrible. They employ mostly teenagers and it shows. I was in this past Friday and after paying and ordering the pastries only (prefacing the order with I am in a rush) proceeded to wait to be served until the kid went through the line of customers behind me who hadn't decided what to order so by line I mean three people that took almost fifteen minutes. Yeah.....and the excuse? We are really busy....It was me and the three other customers in the building. If that's busy well I can only imagine. This is sadly only the most recent incident its just always an issue these days either the order is made wrong (I order a burger medium rare and I get it well done half the time) or the chicken is gristle not meat (so chewy and stringy) specifically in the chipotle chicken sandwich. And do not get me started on the delivery issues something (usually the deserts or sodas are always missing). read more

They cant even make a cob salad correctly. We ordered an italian which is on the menu but I guess its their older menu. What we got was a caprese. I ordered a medium well burger. I got a raw cow. The muffin was very good though. I don't think it's the owner. I believe it's the young kids he hires. Oh and to make it worse the lady who made my cob salad said I took off and went home before she could make me a new one. Very odd since I went home and opened my salad and there was nothing in it except lettuce, no avocado, no bacon, no blue cheese?? They delivered me one which was nice of them but why lie to owner and say I left before they can bring my new salad out???? Unprofessional. The owner then said I'll give you your money back very angrily and you can spend it at LaRosas. read more

I called this place 3 times last week asking to place a catering order for a work luncheon for 50 people. I emailed as well. I left a message with 2 different people who said the catering manager would call me back. One of them asked what I would be ordering so I gave him the order and told him it was for 50 people. This would've been a $600 catering order EASY. I NEVER got a response back. I can understand if they could not fulfill the order but at least give the curtesy of a call back to let me know. Not a very good way to run a business. I ended up using someone else and gave them my $600. I wouldn't have even given this place one star but I had to in order to write this review. read more

Place is overly priced with young rude cashiers. I ordered fries with my sandwich and was given these old, full of oil fries, went back and asked why they were so brown looking and the cashier told me that's how they sell them. So I pulled up the picture of the fries they have on their website and showed him the difference in color, so frustrating when you are on a lunch break and have to spend it re ordering new food. This placed used to be soooooo good before, the food was always nice and fresh and now it's BLAH ! read more

This place is literally an oasis in the desert. If you want decent food in Andover, you usually have to go downtown, and the traffic downtown sucks. Anywhere else? Good luck--there is a reason the south end of Andover gets a 5/100 for walkability on WalkScore. All I'm saying is--those 5 points are probably due to this place. It's this awesome little cafe/wine shop right off the main drag. The food is always good. There have been times when we stopped in frantically after they'd closed early for a holiday, and they let us in to buy stuff. Good place. Good people. Good food. read more

When this first opened it was so much better. Then something happened and they hired this very bad chef who looks like he lives under a bridge and comes straight into work that way who Burns everything and gives tiny portions. I have given this place plenty of chances and complained to the management and they keep lying about replacing their cook staff and yet every time I order takeout I see that same chef and low and behold I end up with plates that look like the one in my picture. We have tried this place for catering our business (not my choice) and that same chef showed up an hour late and very unprepared. We also tried them for mother's day and walked out because it was so lousy I didn't want to subject my wife and mother to it any longer. Town Market, you have officially lost my family's business. read more

Town Market Andover - Spare the potatoes? This is 100% what I opened up my takeout container to. - Cafes Near Me - Andover, Massachusetts

We (family of 4) tried the town market for breakfast and wouldn't do it again. Eggs Benedict were more like hard boiled eggs than poached eggs, the hollandaise sauce lacked flavor. French toast was served with the egg batter still soaked into the toast (wet and raw...yuck). Cheese omelet was serviceable. Cappuccino was more a latte than a Cappuccino. I usually pretty forgiving with my reviews, but this was just not very good. Staff and service members were all very courteous and friendly, but the food needs help! read more

Wonderful to be invited to a meeting here, as I was unfamiliar with Andover I enjoyed this little market treasure. The baked goods looked amazing. I opted for the traditional American breakfast. Great choice. I would love to shop the Market sometime, fresh and inviting. read more

I kept going back because I *really* wanted this place to be good, but I kept being disappointed. So I gave up on that, and now I go back for amusement just to see what odd service quirk(s) I will encounter. There's always something! For a year+ I've been hoping the "new business" hiccups would work themselves out, but instead they seem to be getting worse and worse. Just to give you a flavor: For the abundance of staff that mulls about behind the counter, service is incredibly lackadaisical and slow. I paid $4 to add chicken to my take-out salad. Got home to see there was no chicken. I sat for 20 minutes waiting for an egg sandwich, which was finally delivered to my table in a brown bag. I opened it, realized it wasn't what I ordered, re-wrapped it and brought it back to the counter. The staff realized orders were mixed up (actually hadn't even started mine), and handed THE SAME SANDWICH I had just touched to a different customer. Gross. Twice before Christmas I asked about catering orders. Twice my name and number were written down for a call back. Twice I never heard from anyone. I could go on, because there is always something odd happening at this place (and don't get me started on the corny social media posts), but instead I will try to end on a high note: There is always a lot of seating available. read more

Ordered take out at 3PM, paid at 3:15 and at 3:30 was told they were out of the special chicken skewers for my 3 person order and could pick out something else and I already was over my lunch time. Work was tough for all of us today. This is the second time something like this happened. Food is good but very inconsistent. Ended up stopping at stop and shop on the way back to work and still using vacation time after getting a full refund. I did my insulin in the parking lot and my blood sugar crashed while driving. I am type 1 from childhood so a major medical issue. read more
