Fork in the Road Cafe

Great healthy options and a good variety. The staff is nice and accommodating and they have everything from sushi to lasagna and everything in between. Try one of their fresh juices and something from the bakery. Best lowish-​cost option when your fridge is empty!

I can’t say enough good things about this café in Outpost. The service is friendly, the food is fresh, and everything from the artwork on the walls to the tofu, is local. Several vegan and vegetarian options await, but they have meals for meat-​eaters, too. Daily soup specials pair with sandwiches perfectly for lunch, and breakfast is served all day. The fresh juices and smoothies add just the right touch of sweetness. For those who want something more solid, the desserts vary with the seasons, meaning if you’re lucky, you might find a slice of vegan pumpkin pie. Great spot for grabbing a quick bite, possibly before loading up the cart with groceries.

Glad I hit this «Fork in the Road».
Nestled off to the side of the entrance of Outpost Foods lies this little café. I’m glad I went in here hungry, I would have settled for some Zen Muffins. Instead I had a damn good lunch.
Prices here, much like the Outpost that surrounds this café are a little steep. The good thing about this café is that you can buy half sandwiches. A half sandwich, a cup of soup and a small glass of juice will run about the same as an extra value meal at Mickey D’s. While it’s a little less food, you definitely leave feeling better about yourself since it’s a lot healthier.
I ate a half Tofu steak sandwich, a cup of veggie chili and a «ginger wabbit» juice (why do I have to say «wabbit»? It was hard enough to say with a straight face, plus I have a receding hairline, why do I have to talk like Elmer Fudd?!?). The juice was an awesome blend of ginger, apple and carrot juice. Not thin enough to drink fast, but just thin enough to be refreshing. The tofu steak was amazing, I’m generally not crazy about tofu, but with my new mostly veggie diet I was feeling daring. Such a flavorful sandwich, I was pleasantly surprised. I felt a little awkward when they told me I had to grab my veggie chili from the salad bar 20 feet away (I stood with my food getting cold until I asked where my chili was, when they finally told me. What did they think I was standing around for?). The chili was very good as well, packed with all kinds of veggies.
A big pro to this place is the water cooler in the dining area. I don’t have to keep bothering the counter girls for more water, I can get up and drink as much as I want.
A big con to this place is there are no high chairs for the little ones. I had to pull a cart into the dining area and feed here in there, much like I do in the restaurants in Pac Produce. Even though most of your clientele is probably childless, would it hurt to have an extra one around just in case? You do have a kid’s menu you know!
Can we please keep having these awesome restaurants in supermarkets please? It’s a lot cheaper to have a meal here than to shop hungry!
