Inside the art museum and is a very clean and nice venue. Lunch was quite good and not unreasonably priced. Wifi available thru the museum. A nice little café!

Fantastickú ! ! ! Incredibly Cool or HOT ! Both Actually! Being right off the Lobby and Built-into the Taubman Museum of Art you’ll get extra Credit! Class is IN Session! For a Café Location and Geographik Compass Location this place will not be judged solely on the Flavor or Quality of the Food, still I also graded everything separately too! Location: : On the Side of the Sun, In the Wreck of the Flying Nun ! Part of my «remedy» for Depression is to get a little bit of Sunlight! Hospital Band in place I’m ready for a Ooohps I almost ordered a Vegetarian Sandwich! What I did order was a sandwich from the«Specials» Menu and then almost changed it beyond recognition, every request I made was met with an enthusiastik«YES!» «Or We can do that» ! Fantastik Service! How did it Taste? I’ll get to that… Chips — House-made everyday! NOT made-to-Order and I was going to be Disappointed until I saw them, until I tasted them! Easy 5 Unilocal stars for these Chips! Incredible! Perfekt! How was the Sandwich? Good ! About 3 maybe 3 ½ Unilocal stars I enjoy Cold Deli Sandwiches and this one was Cold, they added Red Onion(at my Request) and that was Very Nice. The Bread was good, not great! Overall this Sandwich is going to beat almost all the Chains and most Delis, until you put them up against a Serious deli, though that would not be fair!!! Norah’s is NOT trying to be that«deli» so there! Chips get 100% 5 Unilocal stars Service 100% with Ease Location is Beautiful and Soothes my Soul! Overlooks the New Mural by: «Toobz»! This Café has a «Clean» Gallery Feel and Look! Romantik!

I ordered the Peary Gouda, a sandwich that featured ham, smoked gouda, pear, sweet vidalia vinaigrette, and caramelized onions on focaccia. It’s also served with a side of house-made chips. My sandwich was delicious. The focaccia had outstanding flavor and was the perfect texture, which kept it from falling apart whenever I took a bite. I also loved the combination of the sweet vidalia vinaigrette with the caramelized onions and the gooey, creaminess of the melted gouda. The pear also offered a nice tartness and crunch that helped provide a great variety of flavors and textures. Along with my sandwich, the house-baked chips were also very tasty. They were sprinkled with rosemary and weren’t greasy or too salty. You don’t realize how inferior bags of chips are until you have a sandwich with a side of house-baked chips. There’s such a difference. I didn’t know what to expect at the new Norah’s Café, but I came away very impressed with the food. Hopefully it’s part of the makeover that will make the Taubman Museum of Art flourish in Downtown Roanoke.

Gosh guys, Norah’s café at the Taubman Museum of Art is the real deal in downtown Roanoke. For a lunch with fresh ingredients executed flawlessly, Norah’s café takes down all others easily! After a week of eating Southern fried everything, I really craved a salad so I had lunch with my mom here and boy were we not disappointed. We had the Crystal Spring Salad( ) which consisted of fresh greens, strawberries, golden raisins, almonds, and goat cheese. I thought the raspberry vinaigrette was a little on the sweet side but the whole salad came together really well. They also have an express lunch special for $ 6.11 here. We ordered the Conductor( ) which was just a thing of food porn beauty when it arrived. Roasted eggplant, mozzarella cheese, lettuce, tomato with a sun-dried tomato spread on a French baguette. The melted mozzarella just called out to us immediately. It was an amazingly balanced sandwich where all the flavors just worked perfectly together. Lunch specials come with either a soup or a side. We had a rustic smoked sausage and bean soup which was perfect for the wet day. The food and service are just quite amazing at Norah’s Café. I will not hesitate to return when I’m back again. If you haven’t been here yet, boy are you missing out.
