Cafe Beyond

V. pleasantly surprised by Café Beyond! As a huge fan of the BB&B, and both blessed/​cursed by working around the corner, I find myself spending way too many lunch breaks in the Flatiron location. I’ve only ever had the CYO salad here, but they have a ton of fresh ingredients, and you get EIGHT toppings, including all the meats and cheeses (Bridesmaids, anyone?). All together a large CYO comes out to about $ 10.00. A very competitive price for a salad in the area. Oh! and they also chop their salads. This is ****major key in creating the perfect salad. Definitely recommend if you’re on the run!

Take a break from your massive shopping and grab a cup of coffee, a chicken salad sandwich (add more salt, it needs to be seasoned), and a slice of their delicious DELICIOUS carrot cake. Then go back out there and spend dat money.

Short and simple… My girl and I had the chicken banh mi sandwich and added the medium size soup. We got over charged with the regular price for the soup when they have a sign posted saying that once you add a soup to the sandwich it will be about 2 dollar below the regular price and also we didn’t even get a receipt. Also, I saw one of the workers (looked like the manager) getting his phone out and use it with out even changing his gloves. I work in the food industry and that’s two things. Stealing from costumes and health violation. Peace!

First, this is the most clever Café. Not only is it in the lobby of a major shopping center, but it is called Café Beyond while being situated right next to Bed, Bath, & Beyond!
After doing some major shopping at the aforementioned, I wanted to sit down, so this seemed logical. The interior is white and crisp; everything looks clean, and everything was very fresh! I had the lobster bisque, which was delicious and creamy and came with a big slice of sour dough bread, along with the mango smoothie (I forgot the name, but it featured avocado and spinach and was so yummy!). A cute place to grab a bite after shopping.

I grabbed a bite here while doing some major shopping at Bed Bath & Beyond. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food. I had the split pea soup (very tasty), which came with a big slice of delicious, country style bread, and a refreshing mango smoothie. Everything tasted fresh. The space is bright and cheerful. The small tables are a bit crowded together, but overall it’s a great place to grab lunch or a snack. And you can even bring your shopping cart in with you!

I really like the vanilla parfait. I like that the granola is soft and won’t chip a tooth like in every other place.
I haven’t tried a lot of things here, mostly sweets, and I feel they are not too fresh every time. I would also appreciate it if the sweets were labeled correctly so I don’t have to ask the staff what each of them are.
Overall, its a nice spot to sit down and grab a bite while walking around shopping.

They have a great banh mi sandwich! Have been back for it several times now and I still can’t get enough. It’s a bit on the pricey side but no fuss, services is pretty quick whenever I get in and there seems to be plenty of seating although I always take my sandwich to go.

Surprisingly pretty good. I wouldn’t go out of my way to come here, but if you’re in the area it’s definitely a viable option. They have a good selection of sandwiches and the bread that they use is from Balthazar and tastes pretty fresh. The prices are pretty standard for lunch in Manhattan — I wouldn’t exactly say it’s a deal or big money-​saver. I tried the BBQ chicken sandwich. My friend had the avocado chicken sandwich. Both were good. Also, service was fast.

Came here before an event nearby and had the soup. It wasn’t bad, just a bit too think for my taste and too halt initially to even taste. Service was nice, not a bad layout. Seem like the other side is a merchandise store.

Well, i can see why this place has such low reviews. The service in the morning is not only slow, but the servers are confusing the orders and it seems very chaotic. I got a weird look from my server when I asked for soy milk in my cappuccino and my cappuccino isnt exactly a cappuccino – it is soy milk with espresso; there isnt any foam. So this seems like a good place for lunch if u have the time for the slow service, but it isnt great for good coffee.

Let me start by saying, that I like Café Beyond’s food. No doubt. However, I have to complain about their Salads. I am hopping that the people or management that work here read these reviews. The salad bowl have very little greens! Especially the Kale bowls. Now I know that greens aren’t that expensive. Because of the little bit of greens your toppings will overload your salad! :(Other places that sell salads that are very close by on 6^th ave aren’t skimpy with their greens. I don’t think that I have to mention them here. So I am asking Café Beyond that if you are reading this review, please. PLEASE. fill up your salad bowls with greens! Greens aren’t that expensive. I would love to go there more often, but because of this I go elsewhere (on the avenue) for my salad bowls. I sure hope that they read this review.
Thanks.

Just awful. I’ve been twice, the first time, the (very nice) barista made me an skim iced latte… with whole milk. She even clarified «skim, right?» before making it. The second time, I decided to skip the coffee and just ordered a bagel. I was the only one in the café at the time, so I figured it wouldn’t take too long. 10 minutes later, and still no bagel. My order had migrated from the cashier, to the guy behind the bagel counter, to the manager, and back to the cashier, yet no one had even started to make it. The manager eventually noticed that I was waiting and made my bagel. I would understand if they were busy, but an inability to help the only ordering customer during the morning rush is unacceptable.

Located inside bed bath & beyond on 18^th and 6^th ave. the food is solid. the sandwichs are very good. also, if you work at old navy or inside the building you get a 10% discount with your ID.

I placed a catering order from CB, less than a day before the event and it was fantastic, the sandwiches and salad were great, the presentation was impressive, and the delivery was right on time. Since we had a budget, CB offered the most cost efficient options. Highly recommended for last-​minute catering on a budget.

This review is only in reference to the turkey chilli because that’s all I order. In my opinion, their turkey chilli is the best!!! It has the perfect amount of spice and they offer toppings!!! I always look forward to it when I come to the area to shop and it has never let me down! They offer an assortment of sandwiches, pizzas and salads. It’s a quick stop for a meal. It’s small and located inside of the bed bath and beyond. Besides that… the employees have always been very friendly to me and I appreciate that.

NOTE: This is just a review for their breakfast. I’ve never had their lunch or other food options, I literally just stop in for breakfast once in a while.
This is right around the corner from the office, and they have a pretty solid breakfast. I like getting the two egg option with mushrooms & spinach, on focaccia bread if they have. You basically get the breakfast sandwich for $ 5 — and it’s so filling that I’m sometimes full until dinner (depending on how busy I am that day — normally I’m full until 2PM if I eat it at 8:45AM).
Just a tip: it’s pretty bland unless you specifically ask the guy making your eggs to add salt & pepper. And you’ll have to ask for ketchup when you’re checking out too. The staff is relatively polite — you sometimes have to deal with the BB&B employees cutting you in line in order to get your food… but whatever. As long as I get my food and make it to the office on time, I’m a happy girl.

Do not come here.
It’s conveniently located inside «Bed, Bath & Beyond» store, but the staff is incompetent.
Cashier seemed overwhelmed by simple tasks. It appeared she was more interested in her relief coming in and her shift being over.
She must’ve forgotten to tell the person making the food that I had ordered, because I had to go up and remind them after 10 minutes that I was waiting for food.
The food was not good. In the «oops» rush to make my pizza they omitted the basil.

AWFUL EXPERIENCE!!! I wish I could give this place a good review, because the food is okay. It’s in a good location for Bed Bath & Beyond customers because lets face it you can work up an appetite after shopping.
The customer service is horrible. I placed an order and had to repeat myself multiple times while the server carelessly prepared my food. He was clearly annoyed to be there and it showed. I told him that I was displeased with his attitude and lack of attention and he proceeded to argue with me so I walked away and asked for a manager. Approximately 10 minutes later I noticed the worker speaking with Mario the manger and pointing to us … At that point my husband spoke with the manager Mario about the terrible customer service, but Mario said the worker did nothing wrong …
The manager should have approached us when he realized there was an issue, but he decided not to address the situation and refused to listen. It’s unfortunate that the poor customer service starts with management.

So, my boyfriend and I were pretty hungry, and we wanted something quick to eat. We spotted this café and gave it a try. Honestly, this café is in the strangest location; it’s right in Bed, Bath, and Beyond. Anyway, we ordered a wild mushroom flatbread pizza. I thought this was okay. It was my first time having a flatbread pizza. However, the flatbread was so thin and hard for me to eat because it kept falling apart. Also, it was so greasy that I had to pat the pizza with so many napkins to remove the disgusting, oily substanceAs for the cleaniness, the tables were pretty dirty.
I am so not coming here again. Ever.

Recent visit where morning hunger pangs strike. Service took an eternity where it only takes one able body with two able hands to prepare a toasted bagel with cream cheese. At a very inexpensive $ 2.10, it was MEH!
