Cranberries

Loved going to Cranberries the last four years I’ve lived in JC. Placed a catering order a month before an ETSU graduation, and the shop was closed the day of. No one contacted me to let me know the shop was closed, and it was a fairly large order. Food is usually wonderful, but very disappointed with this experience.

Great find, hidden in an old strip mall, this place is worth a visit. Everything is fresh. I had their Cobb salad with fresh tomato dressing they make in house. It hit the spot and included avocado. The coffee was good too. I’ll be back next time I’m in town.

Excellent sandwich and perfect salad. Service was supper fast and atmosphere was great. I would definitely recommend for anyone looking for an excellent non fast food lunch choice.

Quiche was really just a lump of cheese with some spinach and egg, not very good.

Great food and the folks who own it are very respected in the community. Personally, I love the cornbread.

Found this gem from the reviews before we headed back to RI. Well worth the stop. The quiche and soup — well let’s say excellent. FOOD IS SO GOOD, we ordered sandwiches to go. They packaged everything separate for us to enjoy later.

We have heard good things so wanted to try it. The staff was very nice and the sweet tea and tomato bisque were very good. The quiche was definitely reheated in the microwave so it had a strange taste. The pasta salad was very dry and flavorless. My husband’s twice baked potato was half cheese. Barely any actual potato. We will not return.

Truly home made deliciousness! This little place was a lucky find on our trip to Tennessee. Wish there was one in California! Service was friendly and prompt. The food was fresh and savory.

Delicious broccoli and cauliflower quiche! The tomato bisque warmed my soul. Well worth the stop!

Food is good and fairly reasonably priced and they were just a little stingy with smiles.

The food is overpriced, the service is slow. They will charge you for the littlest things, and make you wait forever for your food. I’ve ordered take-​out several times and it took around a half hour or more each time. How long does it take to make a salad and sandwich? While the food tastes good, it’s a waste of time and money.

The food was very fresh and the staff was incredibly courteous! It was definitely a healthy, local choice! The food tasted great and made you feel good, too! We will be coming back for sure! Expect the same prices as Panera, etc, but better and healthier choices!

Owner David Read and his wife Ruth are always warm and hospitable when I visit Cranberries. A true «ladies who lunch» spot, it has a bright and light atmosphere. My colleague and I both thoroughly enjoyed our recent lunches there. The chicken salad was delicious, the fruit was fresh and the pimento cheese bread was a wonderful twist on traditional cornbread as a side. Our water glasses were kept replenished. Overall great service and taste.

I have been a fan for years, but really not enjoyed my last few meals. Portion sizes have pretty much cut in half and prices are still really high. I’m a fan of smaller portion sizes, but prices should reflect them. My salad today was warm and just not appealing. The Turkey croissant was delicious.

TERRIBLE COFFEE. Stopped in at lunch, had coffee and peach cobbler. The coffee was old and tasteless. The peach cobbler was overly sweet, like it came from an old can. I would rate this experience even lower except service was fine. How can anyone have a restaurant and serve bad coffee???

Can’t think of a reason why I wouldn’t give this place 5 stars. Fresh, delicious food and super friendly service. These folks are proud of their restaurant and they should be. It’s charming as all get out AND they have WiFi! I had the cobb salad with their house made raspberry vinaigrette and everything was scrumptious (I subbed feta for the bleu cheese they offer because let’s face it… a little bleu goes a long way.). I will be back here for lunch many times when I work in JC. The location is not on the main drags but it’s worth the little diversion. I am going to check it out for breakfast since it’s right across from my DD coffee!

The food was delicious. Cheese quiche and house salad with mixed raspberry vinaigrette and blue cheese dressings.
Their homemade blue cheese dressing is one of the best I have ever tasted. Thick and creamy and so full of blue cheese it won’t pour… you have to fork it on.
Sadly the coffee was a let down. Weak and bland and generic. Too bad. Coffee should be every bit as robust, flavorful and delicious as the rest of the menu.

Stopped in at roughly 45 minutes before close. I walked into an empty restaurant but then again it was the late afternoon at roughly 315 pm. I found Cranberries via Unilocal.The reviews were good so I thought to give it a whirl.
I was greeted by a woman whom I suspect is the owner. Tables were scattered about adorned with bright goldenrod picnic tableclothes. Menu was a chalkboard that listed all possibilities.
I checked in and as a result was given a $ 1.00 off the Super Salad during my visit. I decided to go for it. I ordered the Super Salad. I selected chicken salad with two sides. I asked for the tomato bisque soup and an oriental salad along with Raspberry unsweet tea.
My unsweet tea was delicious and came with a small pitcher to refill my glass.
My meal arrived and the tomato bisque appears lumpy and thick. It was okay but not what I expected and not delicious. The oriental salad that I was told was all the rage was soggy and had pieces of uncooked Ramen in it. However the chicken salad was truly delicious.
It’s not a place I would dine at again but I was grateful for a homemade meal and friendly staff.

Was on the road from Asheville to DC. Stopped for lunch. Wish I had one closer to home. I think the winners were toe quiche and soups followed closely by the sandwiches. Very nice owners. Lovely little place. Will be back the next time I’m through Asheville

This place is really good, the quiches are AMAZING! I’ve had the four cheese and the vege quiche and they are both delicious, not to mention the tomato bisque and the the French onion soup are both really good too. The inside of this place is really cute and you can sit and look out the window, which is pretty cool on a snowy day.
