I was pleasantly surprised with the quality of the food that I had here. The Avocado BLT was excellent. You can bring your dog here too!
well funded school lunch, not good in the hood. Bok needs to put extra funding into the café and less money into the gift shop. ): love the staff! Please give chef a raise, and the kitchen more wiggle room to perfect the menu. Also pls stop giving me your Mediterranean Salad, I ORDERED PASTA!!! This is impastable! Will change my review after the needs are met. Packing my lunch. <3 not hating, just waiting. DO YALL NEED HELP? ): prayers to all.
Food is remarkably good and a wonderful place to fuel up before walking the Bok Tower nature trails.
Visited the cafe around 12:30, so naturally, it was very crowded, with patrons waiting in a line that extended outside the cafe. I was surprised to find only one staff member taking orders, which explained the long line. In about 10 minutes, another staff member arrived and began to take orders, which sped things up a bit and allowed patrons to wait inside rather than outside in the heat. I will say the staff was very pleasant despite the crush of patrons. I ordered the Chicken Blueberry Salad. It came with mixed lettuces, a small scoop of chicken salad, feta cheese, blueberries and pecans. More specifically, 4 pecans, 6 blueberries, the smallest cubes of feta cheese I have ever seen (and no feta flavor, either!) and the most flavorless chicken salad I have ever eaten. Totally not worth the price. Next time, I will pack a picnic lunch and enjoy it on a bench in the shade in the gardens, as I observed other visitors doing.
Pleasantly surprised by how good it was
Es rico y no tan caro... Menú con opciones saludables, pero no son únicamente vegetarianos. Ideal para comer ahí si visitas el jardín botánico. Recuerda salir una hora antes del lugar o tendrás que caminar mucho para que te recoja el Uber o taxi.
Great food great atmosphere
Wow, 😔 going down in quality and produce. You used to always be able to count on a Juice Pickle with your delicious sandwich. Along with refilling your silicone cup. NO LONGER. No more pickles , No Barbaque chips , Dry croissants. No refills. We would drive up just for the restaurant from Sebring. Unfortunately the quality has gone down while their prices have gone up. 😕 such a shame.
Wow! Quite possibly the best smoked salmon blt I have ever had. The sandwich alone is worth the cost of getting a membership to Bok Tower Gardens just so you can go in and eat this meal and get a discount on it to boot. The avocado BLT was excellent as well and don't waste getting chips with your meal, pony up the extra few dollars and get the chips and salsa or really go big and get the chips, salsa and guacamole. Excellent all the was around.
Really tasty food and fair prices.
Excellent salads.Fresh grown on the grounds greens.Fantastic .
Bok Gardens & Blue Palmetto Cafe was the perfect spot for a reunion with my former Development Assoc. at the Guthrie Theater back in the '80's. The food was truly delicious and a woman at a nearby table sensing a 36 year reunion graciously offered to take a picture without being asked.
This place was excellent! There were four of us, and we each got a different item on the menu. Everything was served perfectly as ordered and came out looking like a TV commercial. It was beautiful! And it wasn’t just our food, every meal I saw being served looked delicious! And it was, absolutely delicious. You can tell they really care about their quality and service. Outdoor seating available complete with umbrellas to keep you cool in the shade.
Bok Towers and its customers have benifited from having this great food venue on site. The Blue Palmetto provides high quality healthy food options with consistency and care. They also have amazing cookies, trail ice cream, beer, wine if you are trying to misbehave on your venture out to the Towers. When you visit the Blue Palmetto is located adjacent from the museum and gift shop. Entering the restaraunt, you will stand in line, order, pay and sit down at table either inside or outside on the patio adjacent to the gardens. If you are planning a trip to the towers you must stop at this hidden treasure.
It's a good spot to stop at for a quick bite before/after exploring. There's also seating inside and outside the cafe. You order at the cash and are given a number to set on the edge of your table so the server can find you when your food is ready. I wasn't a fan of any of the meals we ordered - the turkey sandwich (served cold but they can toast the bread) and swirl muffin were quite dry, the chocolate cookie was too sweet, and the chicken tenders were ok but too salty. Prices aren't terrible, and the food overall was ok - being said, Blue Palmetto is a convenient cafe for a light bite.
Good, fresh food at decent prices. The Vegan Cobb Salad was great! (Especially the vegan bacon & green goddess dressing.) Next time I'll see if they have to-go packaging so I can eat behind the tower and enjoy the view.
The food was great, however, an employee was pretty rude. We got to the cafe 15 minutes prior to closing and ordered some sandwiches. By the time our food was done, the cafe was closed. The employee brought our food to us and I asked if they had Ketchup. The employee told me yes but they closed at five (stated with emphasis) and I couldn’t get any. She said she would get me some but seemed bothered by the fact that we ordered at the time we did. So we sat outside eating, no napkins, with the allotted amount of condiments allowed to those that order after 440p.
Great cafe inside the Bok towers. Food is fresh and healthy. They offer a wide range of food. There's also drinks available. They sell these High Noon alcohol seltzers that was refreshing. There's seating inside and out.
Very nice safe at the Bok Tower. Good breakfast bowl and iced coffee.
Good snack. Just enough to make nature jealous.
