We went for breakfast and the eggs looked like the flat top was super dirty. Got new eggs that were marginally better. Seems like you need a decent cook and pair down menu to a realistic size. Lots of potential. Friendly man. The toast, potato and ham was delicious.

Update: we got ill from these wraps. Chicken wrap comprised of microwaved frozen chicken strips, tomatoes and soggy lettuce. Quality not good. Mocha was mostly foam but nice and strong. Location is nice, looks like a chill place to sit down and relax. I get that there's a pandemic going on, we try to support local. I hope the outlook for business's in 2021/2022 is better so that everyone can get back to pre-pandemic levels of quality.

Stopped in last week hoping to get breakfast but we were too late. So we opted to order 2 of the lunch specials which was turkey (real turkey meat) sandwich with cheese on a croissant and added cranberry at the servers suggestion. The sandwich was delicious, like tanksgiving in a buttery, flaky pastry. The place is clean and service fast. Lost of local baked treats as well to enjoy

A lovely spot to sit down and enjoy a coffee. The coffee was good. Made better by the ORANGE CREAMSICLE loaf! Wowza! I've never had a slice of orange creamsicle loaf before and i hope to sweet heavens it's not my last! Simply delish. Yes, i should be embarrassed by the haste at which i consumed it. Alas, I'm not. Spoil yourself today and add the Red Brick Cafe to your to-do list. Definitely recommend.

I almost left my full breakfast special on the table. What a disappointment!! It wouldn’t take much β€˜special’ work to make this place an option in the future. Before my food was served it was off my list. Really wish I hadn’t read the reviews before dining in for once. Everything was off, especially the bacon.

I wasn't going to write a bad review. I was going to take my lumps and simply never come back. But reading the other reviews and replys from the owners, there is a clear pattern here. I ordered a large iced Americano, a muffin, and a breakfast croissant with no ham. The first person that took my order was nice and I tipped them well. Then they went in the back to make my croissant and a boy took over the till. The boy had no clue what was on the menu. I watched him mess up other people's simple orders. And trust me when I say I had time to observe. Because the first person who had taken my order brought me my muffin and a croissant with ham. I'm vegetarian. They remembered just after handing it to me. I would have checked for meat anyway but at least they realized their mistake. So they go back to make me a new croissant. And I still haven't seen the boy on till even attempt to make my iced Americano. It's been 15 minutes since I ordered at this point. Eventually he makes a hot Americano and calls it out. Nobody answers. He asks the person who took my order who ordered a large Americano. They say they don't know. He starts to argue with them in front of me, in front of other customers, about how could they not know who ordered this? Until the person who took my order pointed out that he'd read the ticket wrong and it was supposed to be iced. He grumbles but starts on my iced Americano. He gives me a large cup half filled with liquid. At this point the red flags are at full mast. I'm realizing I should have asked them to cancel my order and left when they tried to serve me a croissant with ham after I asked for no meat. But now it's far too late. They've made two wrong things out of my three item order. The time is creeping up to 25 minutes just standing here. Watching other customers get visibility frustrated. Watching the boy on till practically throw a lid at another customer. Watching these three kids who haven't got a clue try to tackle what should be a simple menu. Eventually I get my order. It is finally correct. It is also utterly subpar. The food is tasteless. The croissant bread is soggy. I should have just gone to a chain coffee shop instead of giving what could have been a cute little place a chance. I won't be making that mistake again and I advise others to avoid this place as well.

My experience here on Sunday was amazing. I went in for a coffee with my friend and our cashier - a blue eyed student with glasses - was so incredibly friendly. She made sure to remember my complicated order and she made it perfectly. It was exactly what I wanted! Will for sure be coming back!

I am not usually quick to post a negative review, yet I feel I must. I was very disappointed in this cafe. I ordered the β€œfull size” turkey cheddar sandwich. It arrived on a very small croissant. There were 4 small chunks of dark turkey (one piece was inedible, half hard grissle), the slice of tomato was a soft and foamy texture (like tomato that has been sliced and sitting out for hours). The lettuce was a chunk of the very inner core of a head of romaine lettuce (literally the small yellow leaves attached to the core!!!!). I am still in disbelief that it was actually served and that I paid $12 for it. Coffee was slightly warm, at best. The cafe was very busy, and there was a sign posted on the door to notify they were trying to hire help. The lady looking after tables was literally running non stop yet remained positive and pleasant. Short staffed is however, not an excuse for poor quality, using remnants of ingredients and presenting to the public. Might have been a better choice to shorten the menu.
