Stations Cafe

The food is good, but overall it’s an amateur establishment. Staff is always slightly confused, ordering a scoop of ice cream can be a generous treat or a miserly mini-​scoop, depending on who you get. I was once asked to go back to the cash and pay an additional .75cents because a server accidentally used the «good» root beer in my rb float instead of the canned stuff… really? Really?

Really nice place, i like there pretzels. I wish they where just a bit cheaper. I LOVE there ice cream some of the best in town. I’ll be heading back form time to time. I hope they bring there prices down just a bit.

My first experience here was very positive and I have returned several times since and refer my clients and friends. The woman working was very personable and educated me on what was in their food. I ask a lot of questions and she was very pleasant explaining everything to me. I love their pretzels, crab cake sandwich and turkey chili. My next pick will be one of their salads. Can’t wait to stop by this weekend! Support local and clean!

My wife and I had lunch today. (We found out about the place via my Unilocal app. We’d first checked out competing eateries in easy walking distance.)
We each got flatbread sandwiches (mine the ham sandwich). They were great: tasty and very filling. We were very pleased with not just the food, but the service from Emilie, the ambience (place is filled with light on a sunny day). We definitely want to return to try other items there.
I was glad to see on my Unilocal app that we could have gotten 10% off if we’d gone over the $ 20 limit, but I was able to save that discount for a future visit. Also, because we signed up for the awards program there (a national program), we get a free coffee next time since we spent more than $ 8.

The Vietnamese spring rolls were one of the best I’ve had. They were made fresh on the spot with basil and mint, and for $ 10, they were HUGE packed with meat (they were out of shrimp so we had chicken in it) and worth every penny.
Salmon burger was good but not nearly as good as the spring rolls. If I were able to order again, I’d nix the hummus and veggie quesadilla, these were baked long enough and came out soggy, and while the chili was good, the breadsticks that it came with were cold, what? I felt like they could’ve been popped in the oven while the burger buns and quesadillas were getting toasted. But all of the carbs came out lukewarm and soft. Which was a bummer because for a pretzel place, you’d think the standards for toasting would be higher.

Good for vegans, nice that they label things vegan etc. though one thing may have been mislabeled, people are really nice:)

Really bland veggie flatbread for the $ 9 price. Asparagus did not come on the sandwhich as advertised. The flatbread was really similar in taste & texture to the pretzel sticks, which came w/​runny watery cheese sauce ($ 4). Highly unimpressed and unsatisfactory.

Stopped in on a whim as we were downtown for lunch. Got the crab patty sand which. I love seafood but the sandwich was only okay. Price was higher than I expected and portion was a bit smaller than expected. Would likely try somewhere else next time we are in town.

I will be going here a lot for the wild salmon sandwich. I can walk from my house. The girl working there was extremely sweet and helpful and happened to be really cute as well.

Pleaase get some more GF options, pretty please.
Otherwise, great soups! The service is pleasant and it’s a cozy quick lunch spot for a catch-​up with mates. The salad is average-​y but fresh, and their burgers looked and smelled really good, too.
Massive selection of pretzel-​y, Oreo-​y, ice cream-​y goodness for those who can, worth checking out for sure.

My son and I stopped here for lunch. The proprietor and server were super friendly and very accommodating. My son loved his sandwich. My sandwich on the other hand had less meat on it than a Subway sandwich. Which means, there were three super-​thin slices of turkey on my turkey sandwich. There was also one piece of lettuce as my lettuce topping. The sandwich bread was delicious and the pumpkin bisque was fantastic though. The place was not crowded at lunch time yet it still took a very long time to get our food. This place has a lot of potential. I hope it improves.

Ice cream is above par. Lay a flat stretched out pretzel under it and shazamo! Pretzel bowl!

I didn’t order a pretzel or flatbread, which based on the reviews, was probably my first mistake. I ordered the taco bowl salad, and it was just ok. Not amazing, but not dreadful either. I will say the honey wheat (I think) taco bowl was very delicious, until the random garlic part at the bottom. I love garlic, but wasn’t expecting it. Despite that, I’d go back and try one of the flatbreads.

I headed to Station’s this weekend for a quick bite to eat and drink. Sadly, I will add my experience to the list of reasons why Main Street is in desperate need of a good café (and not another 5 Italian places).
I struggle to find something decent to say about the food. I ordered a bowl of soup and a pretzel. My chili had three beans (I counted) and was primarily composed of ground turkey. It came out hot, which is usually appreciated, but I waited 10 minutes for it to cool only to burn my mouth when I tried it. The garlic pretzel that accompanied the soup was awkwardly sweet, tasting primarily of coconut. The garlic bits on top were hard and, in some cases, inedible. The coffee I had after my meal tasted stale (my friend likened it to green beans).
Besides the food, I was rather appalled by the service. It comes as no surprise that much of the negative criticism on Unilocal is directed towards this area. First, my friend and I both ordered soup and a pretzel. They managed to confuse our orders, giving us the wrong pretzels. Now, this isn’t something to dock a star over, but its the first of many slights.
We had stopped in before and really wanted to try their caboos (pretzel covered oreo). We didn’t have menus when the waitress stopped by and she listened carefully as we discussed splitting a single caboo. We decided we should each have one and asked for two caboos.
We waited over 20 minutes for the caboos. Eventually, we were so frustrated that we decided to pay and ask for our dessert to go, freeing up our seats in the process. We stood up to wait in line for the register and the one line «chef» approached us. Her brunt manner made us feel as though she thought we were going to dine and dash. Adding injury to insult, we were given two *orders* of caboos rather than two caboos. We were never informed that there was more than one per order.
This experience left a bad taste in my mouth, both literally and figuratively. I am all for giving places a second chance, but I will have to wait a good while before I do so.

Great food! Sweetest lady serving us. I was worried about price when I saw it was organic and fresh but the prices were very reasonable. Great food would definitely recommend!

The good:
The food here is always excellent as well as the service. I grew up in the philly area and actually like the pretzels here better; they don’t give you the carb nap feeling after you have one due to the ingredient used.
They have a variety of items to select from including ice cream and home made lemon-​aid (a favorite of mine as well)
Typically I go for the turkey chili in a bread bowl. I do like a nice hot spice. Somedays it can be very spicy while others a little milder. Constancy or have options for the consumers: Hot to not so hot.
The bad:
It is a small place and depending on what time of day or year (musikfest) the place can get crowded. Parking can also be a challenge.
Summary: don’t pass them up if you are in town and looking for great and organic food.

Found this place when we did the Bethlehem Chocolate Trail and their joint won best in show.
My wife tried the home made pretzel with Turkey Chili combo & a water. She loved the pretzel but the chili was a little too hot for her taste buds and i would agree and she was hoping for some beans but they strictly did the meat variety.
I had a the lobster bisque. which for bisque was actually pretty light but yummy all around and I had a hot ham & Swiss flat bread sandwich with grilled onions & peppers and fresh tomato on a soft bun. This sandwich was so good I didn’t need any mustard or mayo.
My only minor complaint would be that I ordered a fruit juice seltzer that came in a bottle without a twist off cap. Luckily for me I had a bottle opener on my key chain but this is something they should be aware of and perhaps open it for me and bring a glass with ice.
Otherwise, the wait wasn’t that long and the joint was sparkling and the ambiance was nice. We had lunch here on a Sunday. Worth another shot.

I could not say enough good things about this place. Stopped in on a whim with my mom because I saw they had some vegan (for me) and non-​vegan (for my mom) options. I had the Veggie Pita Pocket and my mom had the Lemongrass Chicken. Both of us LOVED our food. It was fresh, cooked to order, flavorful, and SO reasonably priced!
We ordered 2 pints of Spinach and Feta Chowder to take home and try, and it was just as good as the lunch. We will be going back here again and again.

Excellent healthy fare, organic premise made hand rolled pretzels for snacks, with veggies and cheese, chicken for lunches, with eggs for a late quick breakfasts or casual quick dinner.
Stations Café also serves up three very nice all natural soups, a chili in a pretzel bowl, and Longacre’s Ice cream. They have wi-​fi on site, however I have never had a chance to take advantage of it, and their coffee is rather good.

I walked in this place as whim just to get a water then I decided to stay for lunch. The owner’s special recipe for turkey chili was so good and the garlic pretzel sticks could stand on their own, also brilliant! It kept me warm, was hearty and the quality of the pretzels and the chili had me bringing my friends and family back to try them. It is by far the best pretzel I have ever had. The chili easily makes my top 5 if not the #1 spot.
An added bonus were the prices, the meal wwas extremely reasonable and for the quality of food I was more than willing to pay.
They also cater and make custom pretzel trays, I haven’t taken advantage of this yet but will, soon.
