Greenberry's Cafe: Your New Favorite Coffee Shop



If you are the type of person who loves pumpkin spice latés but you don't want to deal with the lines or the overcrowding of Starbucks and Dunkin Donuts, then you should try out Greenberry's Cafe, located on 239 Berdan Ave in Wayne.

Greenberry's is a quaint cafe tucked away in a strip mall so you'd probably never stumble upon it if you weren't looking for it. However, it is a great spot to hang out, get some work done, or meet up with friends. They have plenty of comfortable seating and free WiFi, which is always a plus!

During my first visit to this cafe, which has 4.5 out of 5 stars on Yelp, I ordered the Stacked Turkey sandwhich, which includes (according to their description), "smoked turkey, havarti cheese, avocado, lettuce, roasted red tomatoes, and mayo." I also decided to add their butternut squash soup to my half sandwich for an extra $4, which came with free oyster crackers. I only got a half sandwich but you can get a full one for $7.99.

The sandwich was filling and it definitely was "stacked" with ingredients. The fresh avocado went well with the turkey and created a yummy sandwich. The soup was alright, but a little bland, which was disappointing. I would have preferred a little more of a kick. I also got an Italian soda, which they make themselves in the store. I went with the Blood Orange flavor and it was quite good, though I don't know if I would try some of their stranger soda flavors, like chocolate. They also have a selection of gelato which all looked delicious and I will definitely try out next time!

Their hours of operation are a little odd so make sure to take note of them first if you plan on making the trip. Monday through Thursday they are open from 6:30 AM - 7 PM. On Friday and Saturday they stay open until 9 PM. On Sundays they open a little later, at 8 AM and they close at 5 PM.

Ratings: 

General Rating Scale: 1 = poor, 2 = nothing special, 3 = decent, 4 = very good, 5 = excellent

Food: 3.5/5 spoons

Although the food wasn't out of this world, for deli/cafe style food it was fresh and pretty tasty overall. I was a little disappointed with the soup, but would be willing to try another kind out. The turkey sandwich made up for it though, and only half of it filled me up.

Service: 4/5 spoons

The people who work here were personable and willing to help you decide what you would like. I only interacted with them briefly, but they seemed like they enjoyed their job, which makes you have a better experience as a customer.

Affordability: 4/5 spoons

It's definitely not the cheapest option around, especially when you can get a 6" sub at the Quick Chek for less than $3. However, you are paying a little extra for the authenticity and the fresh flavors, which I think is worth it.

Overall Experience: 3.5/5 spoons

This place is definitely worth trying out if you're looking for a new cafe in the area. I'm not sure if I agree with the Yelp rating they have of 4.5 stars, but it has a lot of potential and I will definitely come back to try their coffee and gelato selections.
