Blue Kangaroo Cafe

I’ve gotten a breakfast wrap a couple of times from this place but every time has been extremely inconsistent. It’s a simple bacon egg and cheese and one time my wrap literally had half a strip of bacon, maybe 1 egg and cheese. There was more wrap than filling. The next time I ordered (reluctantly) my wrap was so full! At least 3 scrambled eggs, bacon and cheese. Not quite sure why it’s so inconsistent; it also takes entirely too long to cook pretty much anything there. You will find yourself waiting for something as simple as a bagel. You’re better off going to a sit down restaurant and being served; it would take less time than this place.
The staff is pleasant but lack personality and never really quite seem to know what’s going on but the food is decent. Would I go out of my way to come here? No. But if I was desperate for food maybe

I just walked in to this place, two employees ignored me at the counter for a minute. So I just left. Won’t be back!

Love the concept, especially in a town the seriously lacks decent fare. However, on a couple of occasions, they have been out of sandwich rolls, forcing me to get a wrap. Not the ideal situation. Otherwise, I would just love to see them open for a little of dinner time as well.

Great place for not your average sandwiches and salads! Friendly staff and delicious food!

Great chicken caesar salad wrap. Love to add in a bit of goat cheese. Great service, love this place!

What a great place. My wife has been here many times and spoke very highly of Blue Kangaroo. I decided to stop in to grab breakfast to bring home to the family today. They have a great selection of pastries and hot breakfast sandwiches. I had the #1 on an asiago bagel and it was fantastic.
I liked the place so much I went back to pick up lunch for the family (college football day). The lunch was just as good as the breakfast and all of the employees are extremely friendly!
We will definitely be frequenting this place more often!

I emailed an order request for a dozen gluten free pink velvet cupcakes with cream cheese frosting through the café website and received an email that said the baker would be giving me a call.
The baker did not give me a call, just someone to officially take my order. I called the order in over a month in advance. The woman was very polite over the phone, asked what the event was (fashion blogger 30^th bday party) and said they would put a special fondant high heel on one of the cupcakes. Great! She said someone would be calling me with a cost estimate later on that week. No one called me.
A week before pick up I called for an estimate. Took them awhile to find my order which was entered in as 12 dozen cupcakes and not the simple dozen I ordered. «Good thing you called!» The order was read back to me and the estimate was given. I asked if I could pick them up at 4 on Saturday, they said no problem.
Saturday came. I called in the morning to check on the order. Took awhile for them to find the order but eventually found them. They were already prepared. I said I would pick them up at 4 as I previously requested. The man on the phone said they closed at 4 and it would have to be sooner. They should have told me that the previous week when I called and made the 4pm pick up request. No one mentioned they closed at 4 and I didn’t think to check because I figured if the time was bad they would have said something.
I scrambler over there – counter person is pretty clueless. Eventually he retrieves my order, half of the cupcakes are on their sides. Some of them are pink while others are not. The «birthday» cupcake is a complete mess and totally misshapen. The fondant high heel is three separate misshapen pieces of fondant cut into triangles? and placed on the cupcake. Made absolutely no sense. He gives me the box. I open it to fix the cupcakes that had fallen on their sides, smashing the frosting, and he says nothing. Passive aggressive on my part but I had no time to complain in person.
Cost was decent for a special request. $ 34. Taste was good – way too much frosting but it was also very good. Presentation and customer service left a lot to be desired. I would probably try another bakery next time.

No one seems to have a clue what’s going on behind the counter. Confusing who you are supposed to order from. Ordered a tea/​lemonade which is directly on the written menu wall. To which the guy taking my order had no clue what I was talking about. I pointed it out on the menu board. His response was «I don’t think we make that». What? Why is it on the menu then? And I have definitely had it before… He then offer to make one fresh, homemade. You get a star for that effort. But it was terrible, just lemons squeezed into green tea (which was gross). And then I had to pay 5 $ for it. Ridiculous. Don’t offer something you don’t make. And don’t charge me 5 $ for something that wasn’t correct after dealing with your clueless workers.

Cute little café in Barrington! Plenty of delicious, healthy options but also some really good sweet treats. The lobster roll is a great deal but be careful with the little add ons– can get pricey.

First time I went there was last week. I have to say it was so busy but the lane was moving quite quickly. When I got to my destination and I finally sat down to eat oh my Lovely all the way it’s was lovely tasty Chicken Salad on Wheat. Thank you see you soon

I ordered the «maple ave» sandwhich. It was a decent attempt at a prosciutto sandwhich but overall i was disappointed. I did get A LOT of prosciutto on the sandwhich but it ended up just tasting like meat and bread, everything else got lost in the sandwich. The choice of cheese really did not work with the sandwich either. It also came in cubes which is puzzling. I either got a mouthful of cubed cheese or no cheese at all. Would have been much better with sliced cheese that would spread out evenly over the sandwhich. There was an Italian dressing also that worked when i could taste it but the meat and bread overpowered the whole sandwhich and thats all i really tasted most of the time.

I’m all for supporting our small local businesses in any possible way I can, but the Blue Kangaroo will certainly give you the blues after forking out $ 15 for a wrap and drinks. To say the least, this place is over priced and just because it’s in barrington, they think they can over charge on anything. Service here is kinda rude… attitude and snob appeal is present here, and so is the high price for mediocre food. I would not be coming here again.

Well I finally had a positive experience at Blue Kangaroo.
My husband and I stopped in for sandwiches and an iced tea. The sandwiches were heartily portioned and the ingredients were fresh. Service was quick enough but I do wish they had more vegetarian options for the sandwiches.
Overall, it’s totally decent but I’m not sure about some of the RAVE! reviews…

I went to this establishment when I was staying at my uncles house for a week. I saw how highly it was rated and decided to give it a shot. I can safely say I will definitely make a stop here every time I am in Barrington!
They have some great food, fresh ingredients and a great atmosphere. They have a wide variety of food and it is all very delicious .
I am a very big fan of breakfast food, and Blue Kangaroo serves their breakfast wraps all day and that just makes them better off automatically!
Overall I would definitely give this restaurant 5 stars and recommend it to anyone looking for fresh food and great variety!

I had a horrible experience at the Blue Kangaroo the other day. I ordered a smoothie and a breakfast sandwich. The smoothie was not sweet at all, even thought it had tons of fruit in it. It tasted like the fruit put in the smoothie was unripe. The sandwich was good, but a couple hours after eating it, I began to feel extremely nauseous. I threw up several times and had a fever for the rest of the day. I felt totally fine before I ate that food. Also, the service is horrible. No one looks at you when they speak. No one is polite. They make their sandwiches sloppily and without care. They are very unorganized and extremely slow. I am definitely never coming back.

The blueberry almond scones are the best scones I have ever tasted.
They are light and buttery and simply melt in your mouth.

Good selection and great food. 3 stars because they manage to put cheese on my breakfast sandwiches every time I ask them not to. This was the 5^th mistake in a row…

Im a big breakfast sandwich lover and this place has several unique and very tasty options. Between the Sicilian, Roadrunner and Southcoast I could hardly choose. That said, I made sure to encourage my son towards the Southcoast while I jumped on the Sicilian. At least I got to try 2 out of three. The sandwiches were HUGE and better than I imagined. The eggs are sourced locally, so when they say «farm fresh» they mean it.
I didn’t have room for the baked goods, which looked fantastic, so we brought some back for my girls, who devoured them. Oh and the coffee is organic and strong, just the way I like it.
If you are passing through Barrington like I was, do yourself a favor and check in at Blue Kangaroo for breakfast or lunch.

This place is a great local hang out. Small seating area on the inside, and but when the weather is nice they have bistro tables outside.
Their baked goods are awesome (large fresh made cinnamon rolls), change with the seasons and have gluten free options. The coffee is strong and organic! The breakfast sandwiches are made with eggs from Buffoni’s Poultry Farm (a RI institution) and are delicious.
You can really feel good about eating here since most of their products are locally sourced and/​or organic in addition to being down right tasty.
This is were I take company for a quick lunch stop, while we are out shopping or just to get out of the house.

New café, all kinds of creative sandwiches, wifi and the pickles are delicious. Monstrous desserts and fun drinks. The Elvis, a banana, peanut butter chocolate shake, is off the hook. Tasty all around!
