Joe On The Go Café Catering - Merced

Love their Chai sandwiches! Fresh baked cookies are better than franchise down the road.

It's really too bad you cannot give above five stars, because this establishment deserves that and more. We found this place by accident and by far it is the greatest accident we could ever have. When I tell you that we patronize this establishment about three to five times a week this is not an exaggeration. You would need to keep in mind that they're only open 5 days a week lol. What I can say is this is a small local establishment that makes excellent home cooks food, great pastries, along with coffee and drinks. I can honestly say that I have never ran across anything here that was not tasty. Let me rest your concerns because you will enjoy your meal and will not have any disappointment about your hard money being wasted, pro tip ask them what they think would be a good thing to try because for me it was their sandwich called the Cowboy and it was just amazing.For my coffee lovers woot woot! You will not be disappointed their coffee is authentic and it is not corporate comfort coffee like you would find at a Starbucks or Dutch Brothers. You will be served coffee that actually tastes like coffee (imagine that) none of that over-sugared cavity causing coffee that you would get from a big box store you actually get handcrafted by someone who you can actually call a barista and not some college student that likes to make coffee. I can go on and on about this place because it's truly magical, this is a family-owned operation that will truly treat you like family and they welcome you in and wish you a good day when you leave and they truly value their customers as good people and more than just a transaction number. Parking: Park in the back, pro tip!

This review is specifically for the Double Chocolate Chip cookie. Goodness what a phenomenal experience! First, the cookie is visually stunning, inside and out. Second, the decadent delight comes with a rich, slightly crispy and happily gooey chocolate inside. You can't just scarf this one down... it's just too good :

No menu at the drive thru. Asked for help to order. Worker knew little to nothing about what they offered. Even after I pulled up the on-line menu at the window, she still told me they didn't sell what was on THEIR menu! I ordered a burger dressed and received a patty on a bun with a tomato slice, and the hard center piece of a lettuce. No contiments. 16 fries and my drink was MIA.. had to go in and ask for it. All for $18.. Horrible service, burgers was dry. Not worth the stop. Go elsewhere. The Whopper next door would have been better.

My sandwich is good.I got the pesto chicken sandwich. And the bread it is on is delicious.Unfortunately my husband had to wait twenty minutes for it and he says it wasn’t busy.Also for some reason my sandwich only has one sliver of red onion : and I think the cheese was only on one half of the sandwich. I didn’t realize these things were missing until after I rechecked the menu. Would have definitely been better had it had the onion.The side salad was good I think it was some type of pesto pasta salad).
