Valkyrie Cafe has made waves with local patrons, as evident from the glowing reviews. Customer Tiffany Pulkowski noted that while the menu might have limited choices, everything she tried – from the char-grilled chicken sandwich to the cheeseburger – was commendably good, although she suggested that the fries could benefit from a crispier finish. Tom Hamilton echoed this sentiment, sharing his enjoyment of the Smoked Turkey Wrap on a less crowded day, praising the variety of grab-and-go options available. Ed Narayan gushed about the excellent service and impressive food quality, particularly recommending the Philly sandwich with fries as a must-try.

One thing to keep in mind is the concern regarding excessive plastic use in packaging, which Tiffany highlighted. This social element reflects a growing awareness among diners about sustainability. Nevertheless, Valkyrie Cafe continues to win hearts with its straightforward menu and quick service, making it an excellent choice for a satisfying meal.

Whether you’re a local or just passing through, make sure to drop by Valkyrie Cafe for a delightful bite that promises to elevate your day!

Limited choices but things were served quickly. Everything we tried was good. Chicken strips, cheeseburger, grilled chicken sandwich, spicy chicken sandwich (not super spicy), Sante Fe wrap were all good. Fries could have been crisper. Only real complaint is their use of what seems like a ton of plastic that isn't necessary. If you're going to hand each wrapped sandwich or order of fries in a paper boat as it's ordered, there is no need for the huge plastic takeout container with each meal.

Gran and Go items, chips, drinks and you can also order burgers, pizza and other hot items. Ignore the ‘no condiments’ nonsense in a review below-There were plenty I was there on a slow day and enjoyed my Smoked Turkey wrap. Will be back.

Not sure what the recent reviewers have been smoking but I found the food excellent, well priced and the service great. It gets busy but you still don't have to wait long. The philly with fries was my go to during the visit.
