The Red Brick Cafe

It's a nice cafe run by an Asian family, and they were very friendly and welcoming. I ordered a small mocha, but it was actually a medium-sized one, and it tasted really good. I also had a vegetarian cheddar sandwich, which was basic but worth the price. My friends tried the mango smoothie, and they loved it because it wasn't too sweet, just perfect. I saw many older locals hanging out. The cafe also offers free Wi-Fi, which is a nice bonus.

Stopped in last week hoping to get breakfast but we were too late. So we opted to order 2 of the lunch specials which was turkey (real turkey meat) sandwich with cheese on a croissant and added cranberry at the servers suggestion. The sandwich was delicious, like tanksgiving in a buttery, flaky pastry. The place is clean and service fast. Lost of local baked treats as well to enjoy

Great lunch special. 1/2 Sandwiche + soup + tea/coffee $12.95+ Nice atmosphere and Jim is very personable. He seems to know everyone that walks in.

Food is good, price is right. However, the hard rock music they play is totally unsuitable for all the seniors in there incl. me. When I asked the sever if they could select another music channel I was told that they only receive one radio music channel?! What happened to streaming music!

Kind female staff who has beautiful smile greeted me. And she gave me a friendly answer about their soups. I choice the coconut curry chicken rice soup and I have to come back again here for clam chowder soup! Lovely soup and good coffee and nice ambience. Love here!

A lovely spot to sit down and enjoy a coffee. The coffee was good. Made better by the ORANGE CREAMSICLE loaf! Wowza! I've never had a slice of orange creamsicle loaf before and i hope to sweet heavens it's not my last! Simply delish. Yes, i should be embarrassed by the haste at which i consumed it. Alas, I'm not. Spoil yourself today and add the Red Brick Cafe to your to-do list. Definitely recommend.

The soup was really delicious and crepes were out of this world. The vibe was really joyful and gave old money vibes.

My wife and I just had a very disappointing lunch here. It's extremely rare that I have a dining experience that is so subpar that I feel it warrants a review, but here we are. First, when ordering, I was able to see into the kitchen area, wherein there were three or four slow-cookers, likely keeping being used as food warmers. My wife had the mac and cheese, the pasta for which was overcooked (likely due to an extended stay in the slow-cooker) in a very bland cream sauce, and was served with a sad-looking lettuce and tomato salad. I ordered the chocolate and banana crepes, along with a coffee. The coffee was extremely weak and watered down (basically tasted like slightly dirty, hot water). When the food came, I was served a cold, dry, crumbly crepe with two small dots of whipped cream. Given the texture and temperature, I would legitimately be surprised if the crepes had been cooked today. The fact that this lunch cost us $30 (after tip) was extremely disappointing. We ate about half our lunch, and then left it unfinished (another thing that has never happened). I regret to say that there are other, much better places available, for much better value. Listen to the other 1 star reviewers. Our experience was the exact same as theirs.

This place has potential. The decor is nice, the Customer service is a bit slow but they are trying since it has allot of potential to be trully 5 star worthy if they got some good training and some proper commercial equipment ( proper cooking and food storage and a pos system). The food is decent and so are the prices. They got outdoor and indoor space to sit. Some of the other reviews are because of lack of training and the hardware they are using. This place could truly be great with some TLC.

Hate to give a bad review but if I said it was any good, I'd be lying. Their turkey vegie soup was thin, totally devoid of any flavor whatsoever and tasted like dishwater and the bits of turkey that were in it were the least desirable scraps that one would normally throw out. The Thai coconut soup tasted rancid and contained some mushy grains of some kind that were totally unidentifiable. The sandwich was ok but no more exciting than a sandwich I'd throw together at home. I'm truly perplexed how a business that can put out such spectacularly ghastly food can stay in business.

Well it was only a couple of sandwiches, but they were really quite good sandwiches. I had a veggie sandwich on rye bread. It was delicious. My partner enjoyed an egg salad sandwich and his was delicious as well. The two young boys that were running the place when we were there were quite comical as they kinda fumbled around the menu with our questions, but the food we ordered came out and we enjoyed our lunches. OMGawd - what a cute town Sidney is!!!

The most disgusting, disappointing experience I have ever had in a cafe. After 15 minutes waiting for a breakfast sandwich I asked for my money back. The man was rude and refused to refund me. Said go ahead and leave without your food but I won't give your money back. After arguing for another 2 minutes the sandwiches were ready so I took them and left. The cheese was unmelted. The eggs cold. Tomato was mushy. If you want even the slightest amount of customer care or quality you should avoid the place like the plague

Went there for lunch I heard they had good chili, yea not so much, I could have poured it out it was so watery. I like how the local business 's want you to support them then they serve you shit. The owner' s were sitting in the far corner eating the meals. Will not go back.

My dad likes to frequent Red Brick for coffee and chats with his friends, but this past Saturday it was him, my mom, and I wandering around Sidney and shopping when hunger struck us. We decided to go into Red Brick for lunch. I had been before and had a Caesar salad and wasn't honestly blown away but with their varied menu of soups, sandwiches, and salad there was bound to be something new to try. Their lunch special ($12.95) was a beef dip & coleslaw which my dad ordered; my mom and I had white chowder & the Red Brick salad ($7.95). Food arrived fairly quick - first impressions: Beef dip seemed overpriced since it was just a sandwich with a very small side of coleslaw. Dad enjoyed the sandwich but said the coleslaw was too sweet. The chowder and salad was a perfect sized meal, but the chowder was honestly anything BUT a chowder. Yes, it had chopped clams in it but it did not have that creamy, almost ocean-y taste that a traditional white chowder has. Really this soup was not even that white and I would be surprised if there was any cream in it at all. It tasted like potato-vegetable soup - I even said to my mom it tasted like some kind of stew. It wasn't terrible, but it wasn't chowdery either, so it left me wanting more of what I wanted - which was real creamy white chowder. The Red Brick salad, on the other hand, was pretty dang good! A bed of fresh greens, mandarin slices, chopped pecans, cheese, red peppers, and chick peas with a side of orange vinaigrette - not your average salad, and it was definitely the rockstar of my lunch. Red Brick is good, but they could be better. I would come back, and I'll likely do the Red Brick salad since that was by far my favorite part of lunch.

Had the Red Brick Scramble. I asked for scrambled eggs and was told it's an omelette, is that ok? I said ok. Omelette had ham which I didn't want. No toast.

Good food. Had the chili and it was awesome. Heard good things about the clam chowder on Foursquare.

We dropped by on a recent afternoon to order two sandwiches for lunch; i was the only one in line and was told it would be up pretty quick, and we sat outside to wait. Other customers entered; we saw folks who ordered after us walk out with their orders. At the 20 min. mark I went inside and enquired about the order status -- one of the staff responded with a disdainful look and told me 'It's on its way". Ten minutes later a staffer brought out to us two sandwiches which were not our order, and said the Italian sodas were on their way ... also not our order. After waiting another 10 minutes one of our sandwiches finally came out. I asked where the other one was and the server replied, "Oh, did you order two?" At this point we asked for our money back and left. The server did not seem particularly bothered that we had waited almost 40 minutes and still did not receive the correct order. We eat out often, and this is hands down the most dismissive and worst service we have ever encountered.

Best food at a cafe we've been to yet in Sidney. We tried serious coffee and Georgia's but the food and coffee at Red Brick (and the homey atmosphere) were best here.

Atmosphere was friendly, quick service but disappointed in lunch special. Expensive grilled cheese would expect the cheese to be oozing out but barely noticeable. Slaw was ok but not for me. Other half's ham sandwich okay just blah. Back home we'd get a pickle and chips on the side.

Cute little cafe, dog friendly, with free wifi and excellent coffee! Breakfasts are simple and straightforward -- nothing mind-blowing but tasty. Owner is very friendly. I'll be back to try the crepes!

Love this café/coffee shop. Friendly owner and staff. Really great coffee and latte's. Good sandwiches. Not one of the usual chains. Outdoor tables too. Highly recommend.

Disappointing. The food was basic with a distinct lack of passion and seasoning and an over use of tinned foods and microwaves. Perhaps the basics of a coffee and baked are more it's forte.

Cute cafe, though kind of dark. Good smells and lots of food offerings. Their soup and sandwiches are great, but the "gourmet" pizza is just ok. A good place to get a coffee and people watch out the window from the counter.

Very friendly atmosphere! Also love it that they support animal rescue and have a donation box for a local cat rescue group. Bulletin board has posters of upcoming events. Staff is friendly and service is fast! Definitely recommend a visit when you're in Sidney!
