The Snack Bar

The Snack Bar is a restaurant located on South Congress where one can grab a bite to eat, whether in the mood for a snack or a full-fledged meal. The Snack Bar caters to many different tastes as well as appetites. If you aren't necessarily in the mood for a large entree, you can opt to get a small snack like a banana split, or some doughnuts. If you're not in the mood for anything sweet in particular, you can go for a bagel and cream cheese, or a plate of cheese fries. They also offer a wide range of all-day brunch menu items. If you're more of a breakfast/lunch person, as am I, this is definitely the menu for you! The Brunch menu consists of many items such as my personal favorite Belgian waffles coated in apple-raisin chutney and powdered sugar served with a side of thick cut bacon. They also offer a variety of salads, and burgers, typical of a classic American diner. The food is just the tip of the iceburg, as one can feast on the decor and ambiance of the restaurant alone. Even the bathrooms are interesting with a "water-closet" European inspired bathroom setup where the men and women's are connected by a shared sink. It is indicative of the comfortable and laid-back feel of the restaurant. They also have a large projector screen in the lounge area where patrons can sit back and watch a classic 60's era film whilst waiting to be seated. In all, The Snack Bar exemplifies the qualities of a well-rounded restaurant, with different menu choices to please seemingly all tastes. I challenge anyone to walk into The Snack Bar and leave unsatisfied.
