This place had come recommended. We both ordered the lunch special, which on a Monday was sausage on a bun, with veggies/dip, and a salad. Everything was tasty. The sausage was very meaty, fairly lean. Dip was zesty. All for $6.43 each. We will come again. Bakery in the restaurant is good, with great prices, so we purchased bread and Chelsea buns. All tasted fine.

Located at the heart of Uptown Waterloo, Cafe 22 is a hidden gem where guests can enjoy mouthwatering lunch with co-workers, aromatic specialty coffee and rich dessert with friends, and relax with a glass of wine and unique charcuterie boards with a date.

You would miss it if you didn't already know it was there. However, once you've been there you are likely to go back! I had dinner there for the first time on a week night with 2 girlfriends. I was looking for a light dinner that would be reasonably priced so they recommended Cafe 22. Well, it did not disappoint! The decor and ambiance are just lovely. The menu has salads, wraps, paninis and desserts. They also have a great wine menu with most of the wines being from the Niagara region.I had the spinach salad ($10.50) and added chicken to it ($3.50). One friend had a tune wrap and the other had a panini. We were all satisfied with our meals, and that spinach salad was one of the best I have ever had. My meal was close to $15, the glass of wine was about $10, plus tip, I paid just over $40 altogether.I'm looking forward to returning and having that salad again!

I have eaten at the Princess Cafe several times. It is always very good. But today, my goodness, I had the best panini I have ever tasted. It was the Californian, on dark brown bread, with cheddar, avocado, grilled peppers, fresh ripe tomato, pesto, and a thick layer of herbs and arugula. Every bit of it was bursting with flavor; it was cooked to perfection. ($9)My friend had a salad with golden and red beets, fresh spinach and a bunch of other things. She said it was exceptional.

We were the only customers in the restaurant. You order from a posted menu. There are salads, wraps, soup, sandwiches, quesadillas, and bowls with warm food on one side and salad on the other. My friend and I choose bowl #2 that included: spinach, roasted pecans, chick peas, sun-dried cranberries, carrots, cucumbers, goddess dressing, warm browm basmati rice. I chose salmon and my friend chose chicken at $13.75 each and tea was $2.25. I think the bowl was slightly over-priced; however, I do appreciate healthy food options. The portion size was good and I felt satiated when finished eating. There were two unisex bathrooms which were clean. The service was good, not exceptional but adequate. They also offer take-out. There was lots of free parking. I would go back again.

4. Rumbletum Cafe & Gifts

I first visited Rumbletum for lunch with some friends. I'm from Kitchener, and work UpTown Waterloo and although I love all of the local restaurants and cafés directly in the KW region, it was a nice change to visit somewhere a little out of the way. I had the veggie sandwich and added turkey - just to be annoying. The woman who took my order chuckled at the irony but took my sandwich modification without hesitation. I love supporting local, and independent businesses. I loved the service, food and atmosphere of Rumbletum Café & Gifts so much so that I approached them about volunteering there a few weeks later!
3. Riversong Banquet Hall/Bakery
Reviewed By Mark_S_1957
A close friend's son got married at this venue; the reception was held in the same place. There was a large amount of space and the meal was buffet-style. The food was superb. The view of the creek beside the restaurant was great. There are gardens on site. It was a great place for this young couple to begin their married life.

I stopped here on business travel. It was a little hard to find but it was worth the search. The food was delightfully tasteful. Every single bite of the salmon wrap made me savor the flavor until the next bite. My business partner expressed the same experience. I cannot wait for a return trip!

Arrived in St. Jacobs looking forward to having lunch at Java Garden after reading the great reviews in TA.But, it was nowhere to be found. New building in the location listed, but no Java Garden.Received a message stating that they are opening a new location in Waterloo this fall. Maybe we will try again.
