We stopped here while staying in Acton and LOVED it! Cute little café and everything tastes made from scratch. Burger, chicken sandwich, baked beans, and fries were all delicious. Oh and the cake! We took home a piece of chocolate cake and pecan cake — aaaamazing! Hope to visit here again before our stay is over :)

A great little gem in Acton. Right off the 14 and just plain good yummy food. Burgers, sandwiches and brownies are what i go for here. Haven’t tried anything outside of that realm, yet. Not a cheap burger joint, you are getting a quality product here. Good, nice, friendly staff; accommodating and peaceful.

Who thought that a small café and Bakery off highway 14, on way to Mammoth would have a yummy soup, sandwiches, pasta, pizza and salids. The smell inside on a cold winter evening was home cooking meets bakery. The aroma warms your soul. Then i had my first bite of sllit pea and barley soup, and i smiled with joy. Now i wished i orderrered a bowl instead of a cup. We took the food to go on the drive to Mammoth Lakes for skiing. A great stop for a road meal. The restaurant was almost empty so the food came out fast. They made me a vegan sandwich to go, and it hit the spot. The Rye bread was fresh. They warmed the bread so it warmed my mouth with each bite, and made the cold drive a bright evening ride. Wish i could have tasted more, but will come back. Warning, those with no will power will not want to go in because the fresh made cakes, pied, cookies and desserts in the glass show case are hard to resist, and i don’t believe any are Vegan. Gave only 4 stars because no public use of WiFi. But coffee shop few doors away has wifi, but that café had no veggies. NONE. So was very happy that Rustic Café served vegan and Vegetarians as well as meat eaters I will come back …

Just went here with my aunt for the first time, and it was AMAZING. She had cauliflower smoked Gouda soup and a BLT, I had tomato basil pasta, and we both had chocolate bottom bourbon walnut pie. Everything was delicious, and they serve nice warm, soft pita bread, not the thin, dry stuff most people… me included… are used to. I will definitely be going back. Plus, the server… a very friendly woman with red hair, I didn’t catch her name… was very quick to bring us our food and refill our drinks.

Whenever I come into town my mom and I eat here, really great food! The turkey burgers are amazing, salads are always fresh, soups are usually on point. I love the gluten free option to their pastas, they’re willing to customize just about anything if you require it. My son is gaga over their Reese’s cookies. You really can’t go wrong here — fresh, honest food.

Love the food here, but the service is TERRIBLE!!! Be prepared to wait for everything!!! The salads and croissants are amazing and I don’t mind the wait for the preparation, but they need to hire wait staff that has incentive and at least greet and get the drinks out quickly and not just stand around in back of the counter.

Sorry to say but I was not impressed. I went there the first week they opened so perhaps they have improved the business but when I went they had NOTHING behind the bakery counter except a few chocolate chip cookies. No bread, no desserts of any type. It’s very small so they need to step up their game and offer a reasonable, reliable selection of desserts. Too many small businesses in Acton can’t make it as they don’t have enough local support and only make to order as they run on a shoestring budget and can’t afford to have excess product at the end of the day. Essentially, they run lean and this adversely impacts the selection and availability. I may give them on final try. If I do I will update this review.

Stopped by on road trip. No regrets! They were super friendly and I liked the way they served and presented their fare. Everything was delicious and their desserts were unique, home-style and beautiful/tasty. Wouldn’t mind stopping by again.

Nice little happy place, I would have stayed for a muffin or snack if I had time. I ordered coffee and water for my journey back to orange. The lady was sweet and helpful. Coffee was good 4 stars for it. I am sure I would have given it 5 stars if I would have tried something more. It’s kinda hard to find google maps shows it on the other side of the street, so slight inconvenience there.

We finally decided to try Rustic Café for lunch today. My husband got the rustic burger, he said the meat was great. It came with a side salad. I got the chicken cheesesteak sandwhich, fries and added a cup of French onion soup. I couldn’t finish it all but it was amazing! We also got a piece of chocolate peanut butter cake to split which was huge and delish. I’m glad we decided to try them, we will definitely be back. It’s nice to know there is another option in Acton that has reasonably priced food that is actually good!

So nice to have somewhere new to eat in Acton! My friend and I met there for lunch recently. It was a bit warm when we walked in but I think they turned the a/c on when we sat down. We were the only customers at that point. I ordered one of the specials that day-french dip along with baked fries. My friend ordered the garlic ranch chicken sandwich and a Caesar salad. We both loved our meals. The tri tip in the french dip was amazingly tender and tasty. I really didn’t need the au jus. The baked fries are anomaly. How the heck do they do it? They were crisp and yummy! I wish we saved room for dessert; they looked amazing!

The best piece of chocolate cake I have EVER had(sorry Mom)! The chicken croissant sandwich and baked French fries were excellent too. We will drive up here again from LA just to enjoy more items on the menu.

This is one of those little hole in the wall places that you sort of stumble upon and cherish! Everything is fresh and homemade as one could expect this side of making it yourself. I had the breakfast pizza and it was amazing. It is just as it sounds. A fresh made crust with eggs and other toppings like mushrooms, olives and peppers. It was a lot of food, enough for sharing. But so good you might not want to share lol! I recommend this place highly! If your in the Acton area, this place is a must! Going to come back for the cake cup next time. Overheard the owner talking to another customer. She said that the cake cup was something she came up with because when she leveled the cakes for the multi-layered larger cakes, she was left with a lot of rounded cake tops. And instead of being wasteful and throwing them away, she decided to throw them in a cup layered with frosting and sell them instead. I thought that was a pretty smart and cosy efficient idea. So I’m going to go back for one of those!

This place was recommended from a some parents at my kids school. Just stopped to check it out one night and the warm welcome and wonderful staff made us feel at home right away. My daughter wanted to try the brownies after one bite she made me buy half dozen to take home for everyone. I have stopped in a few more times and every time the welcome and amazing food just makes you want to sit relax and enjoy the atmosphere. The customers and staff all really enjoy being there as if it’s a big happy family lots of amazing warm food and happy full bellies without a long wait. If your in Acton this is a hidden treasure make sure you stop in and join the family.

Rustic café has become synonymous with the word fresh and delicious in my mind. The workers and owner make you feel like you’re having a comfortable lunch amongst friends. They service is always on top of things and I haven’t once had an issue with taste. The breakfast food is my favorite! Everything is delicious though. Fresh bake goods, fresh ingredients and fun people! You can’t go wrong!

We went really wanting to like this place… well lets just say I don’t know who is reviewing this place but if I could I would give it a ZERO… we had the pizza the pasta with and without meat sauce and tried the French fries… the fries are frozen the pizza was floppy and not cooked the pasta sauce was not good and to top it off they put cheese on one of the pasta dishes for a person who is allergic to cheese(they did not ask do want cheese yes or no they just put it on there… you got me on this one Unilocal… this place is a big fat 0

So positively surprised by this place. Great food that you would expect from an expensive place outside of Acton, way above the quality usually seen in this town. There is a $ 5 lunch option that is a lot of food for not a lot of money. We were able to talk for a while with the owner and chef after we ate and I gotta say the customer service here is exceptional. He has plans to expand and cooks everything in house from scratch, we were lucky enough to get some samples of what he was making for the next day, and it was good. I had the brisket sandwich which was tender and flavorful. It came with a side of bbq baked beans which may have been the best I have ever tasted. My girlfriend had a spinach salad with a homemade citrus vinaigrette and candied nuts which was good and on par with something you would get for a lot more in the city. I highly recommend this place and will be going back. I have already told my family and friends about it.
