Everything was excellent. Freshly baked bread & all the ingredients were perfectly chosen so it all worked very well. The only reason I can't rate The Original 5 stars is because it's cash only.

Adorable, vintage, teensy-weensy cafe. Super friendly guy at the register (owner?? doubt it...he was a pretty young guy but one of the dishes was created by him and bore his name Mikey’s Green-Chili Potato Salad).
This little cutie pie is not far from the also charming Riverview Movie Theatre so my daughter and I caught dinner after the show. We only ate a few inexpensive dishes because we have a tight budget but those dishes were delicious and we were served with warmth and a smile even though we weren’t spending much.
I definitely want to go back and try some of the other dishes, especially the beet cupcakes (Beet Babycakes)...they were a beautiful deep purple color with a swirl of cream-colored frosting on top. My husband loves beets so that will be my surprise to him when I take him there.
To warn you, if you’re looking for the name ad hi drive by, you won’t see it on the marquee, it only says “cafe”. Sooo cute and charming. I hope they stay in business for a long time.

the current menu and my teensy-weensy dinner: a DELICIOUS sweet ‘n’ sour coleslaw made with champagne I believe.
Is it more expensive than any other sandwich I can remember? Yes. Is it the best turkey sandwich I've ever had? YES! I will be going out of my way to treat my self with another sandwich from here. There were several other sammies that I was having a hard time choosing between.
Finally made it over tonight and we are very impressed! Owner was awesome and helpful. We got the burger and muffuletta and shared them. Holy delicious!!!! I can't even decide which was better. Loved the french onion dip and the fancy cherry cola too. Prices are more than worth it for the amazing quality and uniqueness - not to mention the sandwiches are huge. And seriously people - get over the no cards thing. I always have cash on hand but they do have an ATM on site so I don't get why the big deal is. Definitely not a reason to not visit an amazing local shop. A+ from these two sandwich snobs!
I should mention this is based off of my first visit, so I cannot rate based on consistency of the food quality at this point.
With that being side, this place is a gem in my opinion. The sandwiches ingredients were superb quality (actually ripe tomatoes), and the sandwiches were generously sized for the average person. The menu is on the smaller size, but the types of sandwiches are varied instead of being different iterations of the same sandwich.
The seating is limited, so don't plan to go with a big group. However, they do take orders to go. It is on the pricier side and they only take cash. There is an ATM inside if you need one.
I have really enjoyed having this amazing spot in South Minneapolis just a few minutes from home! The owners Steph and Andy are always friendly and helpful - they do a creative and gourmet twist on classic sandwiches; it blows my mind each time I come in! They are such high caliber people and chefs. I also appreciate the nice, cozy, small-town vibe and cute factor. My dad visiting from Iowa loved the Iowa Pork Sandwich - he said it was the best sandwich he has ever had!
One other "win" is Southside Vintage, my favorite vintage shop in town is right across the street!
This sandwich shop is run by two Chefs with extensive backgrounds in high end fine dining. With that being said, one can rest assured that the sandwiches and side dishes are absolutely amazing. I had the Roasted Lamb for my first visit, and my wife had the Turkey PLT(pancetta,lettuce,tomato). Andy and Steph are great at what they do, and they have an amazing staff working with them in the kitchen. I LOOK FORWARD TO MY NEXT VISIT!!!!
Making an authentic SOLID sandwich is not easy. These guys know what they're doing as they do the little things very well. Damn good sandwich menu. Good ingredients. Nice little patio too. 👌
Giant delicious sandwiches and friendly staff who were happy to answer my questions. I had the special which was a vegan beet sandwich. Very flavorful and satisfying! I will be back!
Delicious, healthy food served by pleasant folk packed into a tiny space. My rating is slightly inflated due to its being 3 blocks from home. So happy.
