Bloch Cafe

I was very much between a 3 and a 4 here, but due to portion size they get a 3.
I came In At 11:30 and it was not too crowded, our order was promptly taken as soon as we walked in and done in about 5 minutes. It’s a cozy seating set up in there with tables sometimes reserved. Space is tight that’s for sure.
If you order to dine in they will walk the food out to you. Very big heavy silverware and real napkins. It’s cool fun and novelty.
I got the turkey brie and mixed berry panini. It was good, a bit small, but the bread was great. The berries were clearly real as I felt the seeds. And the turkey was as if it had been roasted and pulled apart. Nothing sliced from a package here!
It came with a side arugula salad with balsamic vinegar, which was nice.
They have fruit Infused water but I couldn’t justify the money– regardless it looked good.
I feel like they need more side options. Like a pasta salad or fruit cups etc. The sandwich and a side would be a good portion, but to do that (like getting half a soup) your options are limited and it will be costly.
In summary, If you’re not starving and you would like to feel a bit swanky without breaking the bank while dining at a hospital (a very specific occasion.) then this is a good choice.
I will return if I see something good come up on their posted menu, but I won’t make this a routine lunch spot.

Hospital café with real food
This café is located on the 14^th floor of the new James Cancer Hospital building at the Ohio State medical center. I was pleasantly surprised to see how clean and orderly everything was. The entrees are cooked to order right in front of you and they also have grab and go options. I tried the Hummus as well as the chicken sandwich entrée. The hummus did not taste out of a can but rather made in-​house. It even had some spice going on. The chicken sandwich was tasty as well as the small arugula salad on the side of it. I am considering giving this place a 4, maybe if my next visit is just as good.
