I've visited Crave a few times this week and have overall enjoyed the experience, but I wanted to…read moreshare a small concern. During my recent visits, I noticed some inconsistencies in portion sizes. At first, I thought it might just be a one time thing, but today I had a chance to observe a few orders being prepared while waiting for my husband's smoothie. It seemed like some bowls were filled above the measuring line, while mine was slightly under. I completely understand that things can vary during busy times, but I just wanted to mention it as feedback. Consistency in portions would really help ensure all customers feel they're getting the same value. I'm sharing this with the intention of being helpful, as I do enjoy coming here and hope to continue supporting your business.

Was in the area and decided to stop in. There really aren't many non-name brand coffee shops…read morearound, so I appreciate the effort to bring something local to the neighborhood! I enjoyed the vibe right away. It felt welcoming, and I could hear people around me enjoying their meals, which is always a good sign. I only ordered coffee (there's just one size option), and it was good and hot -- although my lid was cracked. They do offer either a to-go cup or a mug if you're staying, which I liked. I do wish there were a few more small Danish or pastry options to grab with a coffee. Sometimes you just want a simple little something on the side. The only thing I was curious about was the music. Worship songs were playing the entire time. I wasn't sure if the owners are religious or if the staff just didn't realize what station was on. It's definitely a bold choice and might not resonate with everyone, depending on their beliefs. That said, it didn't ruin my visit -- just something I noticed. Overall, I'd return and would be happy to stop by again for another review soon. **After posting and reading other reviews... maybe I came (in the morning) at a bad time and there weren't pastries available?

I am usually a classic Eggs-Benedict person, but the Corned Beef Benny on the menu intrigued me…read more Corned beef hash, caramelized onion and toasted rye sounded like an interesting twist on the classic. Am I glad I tried this combo! It was so very flavorful, and the poached eggs and hollandaise were cooked perfectly. The toasted rye was a huge, thick slice... totally unexpected but an expert offering. I savored every bite of this twist on the classic! To top it off, my takeout was neat and extremely well-packaged, and service was friendly and impeccable, as always. Bravo, Café 72!!!

The variety of brunch and lunch options makes this a great place for groups. This time I went with…read morecoworkers and tried the special blackened chicken salad for $20 (not as painful when I'm not paying). Not to be too nitpicky but the chicken was more just Cajun flavor and not really blackened. Maybe I don't really know the difference but didn't care for that Cajun seasoning. Otherwise great healthy salad. The iced green tea matcha was tasty, not sweet but kind of small with lots of ice. I heard one of my coworkers not like the burger, just lacked flavor. My first trip here was better with the mushroom omelette. Fast and accommodating service. Best to make reservations because they get busy.

Came across this cafe when I was in the area and wanted a highly rated coffee spot (thank you,…read moreYelp!). Not only is the name of the spot totally deserved-- the brew WAS slammin'-- but surprise, they also have a whole menu of savory, real food! The owner and cashier were super nice! Very accommodating to my dietary restrictions and the owner mentioned that they do lots of GF offerings (jackpot!) I saw they have a whole catering menu too, so that must be nice for the oddles of offices around there. Casual/semi-whimsy-semi-industrial vibe inside, with lots of space to site comfortably with a friend or by yourself. Seriously though, the folks were super nice and the coffee was the star of the show more than I expected. Very good stuff, indeed!

The staff really sets this place apart, though. Everyone has been friendly, welcoming, and happy to make recommendations, which we've never regretted following.

It's become a go-to spot for breakfast and lunch, and we're always excited to come back. Highly recommend.

We have been there several times already so I was surprised I hadn't reviewed it. The food here is always fresh and the staff can be slow at times they are always friendly. Serving breakfast and lunch they have creative menu items and standard classics. With minimalistic decor the place is comforting and inviting. Hosting tables, booths and counter seating there is plenty of room for everyone. The open kitchen is a treat allowing you to see the magic behind the curtain. Decent fresh food, plenty of unique daily specials. A solid 4 stars.

Such a unique and large space with seating on both sides (1 side is a coffee bar and the other is the kitchen). Their menu is so unique and they also have a "test kitchen" menu where they'll have creations from the kitchen that they make and if they're popular enough they make the big menu. Such a great concept. Their menu has so many delicious sounding items but I decided since it was my first time to try "staples" which was a sandwich and soup combo. The cheddar broccoli soup was spectacular! The flavor and heartiness won me over. I tried the pear and gouda panini as my 1/2 sandwich which was also quite tasty. Oh and my iced raspberry cheesecake cappuccino was my favorite! Soooooo dreamy. And the customer service was great too. The cashier was super patient with me as I took forever to review the menu and decide on what I wanted. I will definitely be back even though it isn't close to my home which says something. So happy I discovered this place.

Well, my turkey and Brie was delicious.

My own experiences here tended to be in the 3.5 or higher range but I feel confident that rounding…read moreup to 4 is warranted. First of all, it is the closest takeout restaurant to the Civil courthouse( also known as the place where potential jurors come to check in and wait to be called) I love that they share a small storefront with a florist, but it does make for tight quarters, esp during the ordering and waiting process. And the customer service was top notch. My first visit was for a lunch order. It was difficult trying to read the specials of the day menu, let alone the standard menu. This was due to timing, several people were ordering and or waiting. Once chicken quesadillas caught my eye I stopped reading. My selection came out fairly quickly and was packaged with small containers of salsa Fresca and sour cream. But I'm pretty sure menu read that some type of salad was also included, this was left out. They were pretty good too, well seasoned pulled chicken and cheese, the flour tortillas were perfectly grilled and stayed that way even in the package. It was a nice serving and I would have really enjoyed had it come with a fresh and simple salad. I would order again as well. My next two visits were just for a pick me up bakery item. The pumpkin muffin was excellent. The chocolate chip one was not very good. Not enough chips and a dry texture. But during each trip the owner was right up front and being helpful and friendly to all. I feel that this spirit does go into the food that is prepared and served here. Good spot for locals, workers and even the confused juror.

Lexi Lu's Café is a strange setup…read more Up front it is a well designed, attractive take out shop. Walk past their kitchen and it is Amoroso's Flower Shop, where you can still buy a bouquet of roses for your anniversary. Love the adaptive reuse of this old storefront on S. Broad Street, Trenton; right across from the very old courthouse. It is hard to find driving by, and there are seldom parking spaces within the surrounding area. But, if you work or live in the neighborhood, or go to the new civil or criminal courts, you can walk over and pick up soup, sandwich, breakfast muffin, etc., on your way to the office. It closes at 2:00 pm. Service is exemplary given how small the space is. The two friendlies who helped me out were attractive and efficient. One made up my grilled chicken chipotle wrap, while the other provided the history of the business and worked the register. Both were happy to pose for photos when I pulled out my Yelp screen after ordering. You can see the results. The lunch was very good. Fresh, quality ingredients and TLC. Plenty of stuffing for a large wrap. It was enough for two meals. @ $8.50, it was a spectacular deal. Too bad there is no place to sit, because the room is comfy in a cramped way, and it would be nice to absorb more atmosphere from the winsome workers.

It's cozy, cute, welcoming, and has a really unique menu! Firstly, the space: I walked in, looked around and immediately felt like I had just popped into someone's house. I mean, it IS basically a house turned cafe and I love that it still has the homey feel. There are big and small tables and even a couch. I loved that people were there having lunch alone, coffee with friends and even hunkered down with a laptop like myself. The team: So sweet! Let me know some recommendations, let me take my time looking at the menu and brought everything out to me when it was ready. I got an oat milk latte (my usual) and the Pearl sandwich. Both delicious. The coffee was hot and delicious and gave me the caffeine kick I needed. And The Pearl was more like avocado toast with smoked salmon, capers and some kind of sauce drizzled on top. Delicious! And a very generous portion. It made me think I need to absolutely get a jar of capers to add to my usual snacks at home. The rest of the menu looked equally as delicious and intriguing. If you are in the area looking for a casual lunch (think paper plates) you'll like it here. Enjoy!
