Toastique

UPDATED: Still FIVE STARS...more food shots photos during our second visit (from NC)––– FIVE STARS! Our first visit to a Toastique in the U.S. was a great choice! We shared and enjoyed the Avocado Smash Toast along with a Macchiato and an Espresso — all were excellent. The Columbia, MD location is scenic and relaxing, on a mall near the Town Center (see photos). A perfect spot for a fresh, flavorful bite and a quality coffee break.

Fresh, tasty, and beautiful spot Toastique is a really good place — the food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The whole spot has a very clean, aesthetic vibe that makes it a nice place to sit and enjoy your meal. Overall a great experience, just shy of perfect, but definitely worth visiting!

What a great find for food on the healthier side! We found this place a few months ago and have loved it since. The food is soooo DELICIOUS! Presentation of the food is superb. And it took about 5 minutes to get our food. So you know it's fresh and not something pre-made and reheated. Customer service is also fantastic! I think the ladies smile a little more than the guys, but that's my only critique. Everyone is friendly and helpful with a smile. The restaurant is very clean and modern looking. The prices are slightly higher than a typical place most people get breakfast, but the food quality more than makes up for it. Great job, Toastique team!!

New exit off of Rt. 29 ramp to Merriweather District where this restaurant is located is now opened! Happy to find a nice clean,comfortable and relaxing place to gather and catch up with some friends. We arrived around 9:30 and it was nicely quiet with available tables to choose from. The staff was very nice and helpful.You place your order at the main counter then your freshly prepared choices are brought to your table. They have a large refrigerated case with grab n go sandwiches, salads and other healthy snacks to choose from. There are cold pressed juices that were delicious and nice to know that no added sugar is used. We had a couple of their gourmet toasts which used fresh ingredients and were quite filling. Another friend had a breakfast bowl which looked very fresh and filled to the brim. I had their cold pressed juice called Recharge, with Beet / Carrot / Apple / Orange / Ginger, which was not over powering and refreshing to taste. Our meals were tasty and enjoyed by all. The area is brightly lit with a large viewing area on one side where you can watch the outdoor courtyard area. On warmer days, they have seating outdoors to enjoy the fresh air and activities of a growing neighborhood of apartments and new businesses of restaurants and stores.

The location of this Toastique is absolutely beautiful! The atmosphere is calm & inviting. This is the perfect place to stop by after a workout or to grab a bite while you enjoy the beautiful outdoor seating options.

Toastique’s Ice Brew Latte was already a favorite, but adding pumpkin syrup? Let’s just say… it didn’t stand a chance. I devoured it. If you're craving something refreshing with a cozy twist, this combo is a must-try. It's pumpkin perfection in a cup!

Absolutely delicious! My avocado toast with crab was everything I wanted! The marinated tomatoes were divine and there was a generous portion of fresh lump crab meat and yummy avocado. My matcha was made unsweetened just like I like it - Not to mention the presentation. It was a special treat I will return again for very soon! 👌🏾

I admittedly kind of scoffed at the idea of paying $13 to $15 for jazzed up toast, but man is it delicious and so worth it. There is a regular menu and a toast of the month. The only sad part is when there's a toast I love that's there only for a limited time. The acai bowl I had was great, service is very fast, and there's indoor and outdoor seating. It's a great change of pace and you actually feel good about what you're eating!

magnificent price is too much i'm frugal love how everything compliments each other on the plate.

This Toastique is in a beautiful location. I believe they have indoor and outdoor seating, however the outdoor seating is not an option in winter. The interior seating area is clean-ish. You have to order at the counter and pick up at the counter as well. So it's basically self service. There are some individual tables and then community tables as well. The part I didn't like was the amount of noise due to their equipment, which kind of runs a lot with smoothie and coffee orders. There's no ambient or background music playing to mask that noise. There's food is good, but the plastic cutlery makes cutting the toasts difficult. I recommend this for a takeout location as opposed to sitting and eating in.

I absolutely love Toastique in Columbia! The staff here are always so friendly. It's one of those places where you instantly feel welcome the moment you walk in. I'm so happy we have healthier options like this in Columbia! My go-to order is the collagen latte (so good!) and sometimes the crab toast, which is always fresh and flavorful. It's become part of my post-workout routine after hitting Mayweather Gym, and it's the perfect way to refuel. Bonus perk, if you're a Mayweather Gym member, you get 15% off your order! How awesome is that?! Overall, great vibes, amazing service, and food that makes you feel good. Highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area!

If you want a latte for under $5, this is the place to visit! I've seen them when I'm in this area. Finally stopped in and was pleased with my visit. There's plenty of healthy options for food. They also have smoothies, a variety of other beverages, including coffee. On an early Sunday morning they weren't too busy. I placed an order for a latte and it was $4.92! That's a fair price in this economy! The drink tasted great. Service was good. The space is clean and bright. I really liked the decor with the plants. Add them to your list!

High priced food that is mediocre. Only reason we stopped was because my son was graduating and needed something now since nothing else was open at the time. Service was kinda slow also. Place was clean. Staff was respectful.

Finally tried this out, I've been looking forward to it. Looking at their menu, almost every juice has mango in it. I asked the salesperson of they had a juice without mango because I'm allergic to it, but he didn't seem to understand what I asked because he suggested one with mango, lol. I just passed z I ordered the Greek Toast - very little toppings for the amount of bread. I just ate the tomatoes and olives with a fork. Not worth the price and not filling. The flavor was good, though. It definitely needs a lot more substance, and maybe something to keep it on the bread so you can actually eat it like toast. The establishment itself is very clean and pleasant.

I went to this cute little place for breakfast and was impressed by their choice of healthy options. I wanted to keep it basic so had their Avocado smash toast. The avocado was perfect ripe, the bread was great and it was seasoned to perfection. Loved the flavor of the chili oil. The portion was really big as well. Decided to be a little fancy on the coffee and try their sea foam latte. The foam was thick, seasoned with sea salt and it was blue!! But the overall taste was okay. The service was a bit slow but a good place overall.

We had the avocado smash toast - very good and loaded, not sure how they would fit the optional add-on crab or egg. Of course we dove in, and only remembered to take a pic when about half done. Casual eat-in, or out on the patio. The was a little line, but ordering was quick; they must make it fresh, because it took a minute to bring the food out, but well worth the wait!

Very cute smoothie and juice bar with a variety of artisan toast options. Don't let the word toast fool you, each slice of hearty bread was filled generously with toppings. We ordered the salmon, tuna and avocado toast. They all had generous portions of meat and were delicious. The smoothies were delicious as well. I got the seasonal peach smoothie which was not overly sweet and still tasted healthy. I didn't get to try any of their wellness shots or drinks during this visit but I definitely want to return to try them.

I love Toastique and this location was wonderful for a quick bite before heading out to a show. Service was quick, the restaurant clean, and all of the ingredients fresh. I love their toasts, but the prepackaged items are also great for healthy grab and go meals. Very reasonably priced too!

Was all ready to try this but there seemed to be only 1 employee. At first it looked like no one was working. Then a few minutes later someone emerged and went to the bathroom. She was in there the entire time and so without anyone to take my order,I left. I really wanted to try it but ummm...I think I'm good. More employees are needed and the flies need to be put in check.

When it takes 10 minutes to make an iced cloud foam latte for the only customer, you know it's not going to be good. Barista struggled 10 minutes to make the latte and served it telling me sorry, but the foam couldnt be made due to difficulty in their blending machine. I ended up getting a puke like looking iced latte no where near how their advertised picture shows. To add insult to injury, the latte is too sweet, and is literally sugar milk. The espresso can't be tasted because of the overpowering sweetness. Barista needs retraining, as the first thing they should've done is informed me they could not make the product.

I stumbled upon this cute spot this morning after my yoga class. I needed nourishment and was seeking something on the healthier side. I placed my order online. I ordered a regular sized Defender juice. It was so refreshing and good. Alongside that I ordered a regular Greek toast. Omg let's just say I wanna try more things

Haven't been to this place in awhile and decided to visit today, the toast was taking extremely long to get and I had to end up asking the workers how much longer for my order and they actually forgot about my order and never made it, I immediately asked for a refund and won't be returning. They tried to blame it on a system issue but they had my ticket and couldn't just say they forgot about it.

I love getting wellness shots from Toastique; however, the lady who works in the front as a cashier with the long ponytail has poor customer service. I just left at 3:15pm today and as usual, she didn't even acknowledge me when I walked in. I had to wait for her to finish sending a text first. This happens every time she works the register. Then she doesn't offer a bag even if you have multiple items. The only thing she said to me was, "you have three items?"..:and that was it..she literally went right back to texting. That's so rude and distasteful to care more about who you're texting than to even acknowledge customers who are right in front of you and act as if they are an inconvenience

This was my first time trying Toastique. I have wanted to try it since it was advertised as coming to the area last summer. The location sits at the end of the square between two multi-use properties. While in the area, I stopped in specifically for a collagen matcha latte. Unlike some places, almond milk was already included, which was great. The flavor of the latte was on par with similar drinks at other places with the slight difference of added collagen. The collagen did nothing to impact the flavor, but it seemed like a good addition. The service was okay. We placed the order, paid and waited for the drinks to be ready. The order was ready for pickup in about five minutes or so. The aesthetic is cute. In front of the building, there is outdoor patio style seating and the indoor area has ample seating as well. The entrance features a green and white wall with Toastique in gold letters. There is also a medium size plant at the entrance. The white quartz tables and wooden stools with wrought iron bases add to the understated ambiance. The overall aesthetic is clean and bright. They offer a variety of beverages that are made-to-order, pre-made and refrigerated, so there is a lot from which to choose. They also have a variety of healthy food selections. At some point, I would like to try other menu items.

Love this place! Enjoyable atmosphere and delicious food. I had breakfast and decided to order the avocado smash toast and a latte. Would definitely recommend it to anyone:)

Seen and didn't hear much about Toastique as far reviews. I was in Columbia and want a light healthy snack and matcha. Stop here and the place is very clean. Order the tomato buratta toast and it was AMAZING and vanilla matcha with almond milk very very good. The overall service was ok. And if I'm in Columbia again, I will definitely be returning to try the avocado toast!

Well, people! I did it! You know how they say millennials are broke because we spend all our money on avocado toast? After avoiding it and denying it for years, the time has come for me to join my fellow millennials in this practice. Enter Toastique. Toastique is a cafe style restaurant with, of course, fancy toasts. This ain't your average avocado toast. Matter of fact, most of the toasts don't contain avocado at all. They also sell smoothie bowls, smoothies, juices, and more! This was my first visit, and although I probably should've tried their regular menu items, I went for the seasonal stuff instead. I ended up getting the shrimp salad toast and pumpkin smoothie. One thing for sure...the prices are a little steep, especially for something on one slice of bread. However, I will say that the ingredients are of high quality. I really enjoyed my shrimp salad toast. The pumpkin smoothie was just okay. I don't think it was blended very well. It tasted mostly like bananas, and the pumpkin chunks weren't completely blended. Overall, Toastique is a cute place to get your healthy fix.

If you are looking for healthy food options, I recommend Toastique. If you love avocado toast then you will love this restaurant. The Blue Mystique smoothie was very good, just the right amount of sweetness. I love their authentic Matcha Latte, sweetened with just the right amount of agave. I love the Cold Press juices and wellness shots. And the Açaí bowls are delicious. Fresh fruit and ingredients. Plus make sure you sign up for the rewards program because trust me, you will keep coming back. The restaurant is clean and fresh. Plus they have complimentary water.

A couple of friends and I stopped here before heading over the the Healing Waters. It was a really nice light lunch . We shared a bunch of toasts and an açaí bowl. Everything was tasty. I liked the Greek toast the best, but I think everyone else liked the burrata the best. I got a latte which was good and others got a pressed juice, which looked good. Someone also ordered one of the peanut butter toasts and that was pretty good too. I thought my latte took a little long to come out but everything else came out quickly. It's a nice place to meet up and chat with friends .

We drove 20 mins to get here after seeing it on IG. I was super excited to try several things on the menu, but never got the chance. We were not greeted when we walked in. They didn't seem super busy, but they still never acknowledged us. We stepped up to the counter ready to order and still nothing. The male behind the counter looked at me for a couple of seconds making direct eye contact and still said nothing. We left a minute or so after that. Judging by the other patrons there that had been served our assumption is that we weren't helped because we're Black.

Cute little casual cafe that serves toasts, smoothies/juices, açaí bowls, etc. We ordered the avocado smash and smoked salmon toast. Avocado smash was average, a little bland and very oily. Smoked salmon toast was delicious (added tomato for an extra $1). Pricey for toasts, but the size was good and filling for breakfast. Will definitely come back to try the juices and smoothies ne

What a hidden gem! Absolutely love this place, the prices, and the fast service. My breakfast/ lunch was delicious and filled me up. The toast options are like meals and will definitely fill you up. The place had a lot of open seating and when the weather is nice you can sit outside. The water play area for kids is outside and the area is beautiful. If the food isn't enough the raw juice options poured fresh or premade juice in the cooler to go is worth it.

Great indoor and outdoor seating. Friendly staff. I ordered a double espresso shot which was tasty.

Interesting place that I think is part of a growing chain. Toastique served smoothies, juices, avail bowls, salads, and toasts. 18 year old and I shared a few items, including the crab toast, açaí bowl, peanut butter energy bites, some juices, and a smoothie for him. We probably over ordered! The crab toast was large, rich, and tasty. All of the other items were good. Our "light lunch" ended up being pretty filling and costing over $60. This location is in a newish looking shopping plaza. Staff seemed a bit indifferent and could have been more helpful.

Definitely enjoyed this cute, clean, freshly designed cafe style shop. I ordered the avocado smash and enjoyed each bite. It tasted fresh, had herbs, and served with a nice visual presentation. I also had a latte which I enjoyed. The service was pretty good. They were kind and served the food at an appropriate speed. I'd be happy to come back and try more of their food options and potentially a juice or smoothie.

Toastique is a fun eatery, that is a perfect stop for a light, healthy meal or smoothie. It also has a number of cold-pressed juice blends. There is a pretty complete coffee bar offering as well. We really enjoyed the 2 toast platters we got. I got the 3 cheese Italian and the ham that came with it was outstanding. My wife got the avocado smash with egg and really enjoyed it. The ingredients with of high quality and had a nice presentation. They also offer bowls, smoothies and overnight oats, which all looked good, but we did not try yet. We definitely plan to return. I feel that Toastique differentiates itself from other smoothie/juice bars and is definitely worth a visit.

Having lived in California for many years, we were excited to hear about this healthful juice bar / toast type place opening up in Merriweather. We've visited the place three times now because we really wanted to like the place and support Merriweather district, but have been let down each time & very disappointed by our last visit especially. 1. Ambiance: not a ton of seats, but the rotation is fast and the general vibe is nice. It's bright, has outdoor seatings, and on a nice summer day, it just gives you a beachy vibe & good view of the Merriweather district. 2. Food: it's very mediocre. They don't hide the bread they are using, and I see they get their bread from Costo (or some store bought bread). Their butter lettuce also feels like the Costco version (yes I shop there often). Not that it's bad, my point is, food feels very much overpriced for something I can buy and make myself at home. If you're the type of person who doesn't enjoy cooking and rather pay money to eat out - there is nothing wrong with their toasts! It's my personal preference since I enjoy cooking. Smoothie: I tried a blue mystique and it tastes VERY healthy. I didn't mind it, but my husband didn't like it at all. Overall, $9 felt very pricey for this too. One thing I liked from the place is their Acai bowl. Acai bowl is actually really good - if I were to come back again to Toastique, it would be for this! 3. Service is REALLY what gets me every time and ultimately made me give them a 2 star vs 3. My husband had a birthday reward today and when he brought it, the cashier said "I don't know how to redeem this."......???? husband, perplexed, asked him "well, I have this reward. Do you want me to ask someone else instead?" He still stood there, giving my husband a look as if we did something wrong. That's when someone else (a manager?) came over, asked us what was wrong, and resolved a situation. It's OK that you don't know everything, but standing there looking at us funny, not doing anything to help. Was NOT Okay. I guess the theme of this review is: If you don't mind paying extra for "healthy" type of food (ingredients feel store bought, not from a local farm or anything), food is OK and the vibe is nice. Don't expect a great service here. Treat it like a fast food joint that makes healthful food!

Overall the food was good, but it felt overpriced and the wait was long. We love Color Burst Park and frequent the restaurants there. I love that Toastique has an indoor/outdoor feel and the vibe is cute. The smoothies are $9-11. The toasts are $13-15. We had the green machine and the 3 cheese Italian. The smoothie was really sweet for my taste. Most of the bowls and smoothies seemed more sweet and less balanced for my tastes. The toast was hard to eat but absolutely delicious flavors.

I came here one day to do some laptop errands and just wanted to get out of the house. Located in the middle of Color Burst Park, Toastique has a great view of the lawn and across from Busboys and Poets. The interior is gorgeous - a lot of white space and chill vibes. I ordered the Smoked Salmon, which was delicious and just as gorgeous as the pictures. The one sandwich was more than enough to fill me. I worked form the space for two hours with no disturbance from staff. The music is a little loud, but not too distracting to get some work done. Internet was fast! Highly recommend!

They have amazing service and delicious drinks. My favorite bowl is the OG Açai bowl, it's rich with flavor and a perfect small little breakfast for when you're running to work or just on the go

Do you like toast? Do you like toast jazzed up with toppings? If so, Toastique is the place for you. The menu entails different toasts with a variety of toppings, smoothies, açaí bowls, juices, coffee, oats, and wellness shots. I decided to get the Greek Toast and Iced Brew smoothie. The toast was topped with a thick layer of hummus, arugula, red onion, tomatoes, cucumber, olives and paprika. The tomatoes were juicy and marinated full of flavor. Frankly, I was expecting a regular size toast and to my surprise the toast was a decedent size. The ice brew smoothie was tasty. It was recommended by the gal at that took my order. It had coffee, banana, date, peanut butter and almond milk. I'm not too fond of date, however, the smoothie didn't affect my taste much. The indoor and open door to the outdoor seating is a nice vibe. There's a lot of healthy options to choose from. I'd like to go back and try an açaí bowl of a juice. If you like healthy options, you'd find something at Toastique.

Have you ever thought I would love to have some delicious avocado toast without the avocado? Then this is the place for you. Honestly, I was super disappointed. I went there on Sunday, November 17, 2024 and I wanted to love this place but unfortunately I could not. I had the toast with the smoked salmon and my wife had the toast with spicy crab. We both had a smoothie and the bill came to over $60. We never thought in our wildest dreams that this toast could come without avocado. This place is so overpriced and I am scared to think about what the bill would've been had we added the avocado. So if you're coming here, just a word of caution, if you don't see avocado on your order, you're not getting it. Two stars for this place and bring your own avocado.

Toastique opened its first ever Columbia, Md location today!!!! I'm a Columbia Native so I was super excited to see this new cafe come to our ever evolving Merriweather area. This grand opening came with a promise of the first 100 people getting a 50.00 gift card or Toastique credit so of course there was a line! I knew I hadn't gotten up early enough for that so I got in line knowing this was just a super long wait for breakfast toast. I'm glad I waited though. I ordered the three cheese Italian toast. Anything with Prosciutto and Jarlesberg cheese on it is a win in my book! The balsamic glaze and lemon sent this toast right over the moon for me. I had to try a smoothie just because , why not after 2 hours in line. I got the Blue Mystique which was very refreshing and just the right amount of sweet. Inside, the decor is simple but fun. Light greens and bright whites with small iridescent lights accenting the cafe. There is a cold case for all of the grab and go lovers. They also make cold pressed juices. You can see that behind the cold case is a fridge full of fruits and veggies. There are a good handful of coffee offerings that smelled divine as well. I'll have to try those next trip for sure. Try out Toastique Columbia then next time your finishing a Yoga Six class or skating at ColorBurst park. You won't be disappointed. Thank me later.

So excited a location opened closer to me!! I love Toastique! This location is spacious and has window garages that open for outdoor and indoor continuity. So aesthetic and quality food. Cashier was very nice, giving recommendations and letting me try the juices before deciding. Interesting flavors - went with the Cure, which is apple, pineapple, and spinach. Very fresh and tasted like a sour kiwi. Just super well made fresh food. Yes, a bit pricey, but worth it. They give generous portions - no skimping on avocado or tomato. Watermelon radish is a refreshing addition.

Delicious brunch spot with quality toasts , smoothies, and drinks!!! Service is a little slow waiting for food but it's always worth it!

The avocado toast and peanut butter toast were amazing!! The crab one I wouldn't get again but that's just because it was super cheesy and I'm not a fan of super cheesy They fill up the toppings without scimping and everything in combination is so good! Was excited for this to come to our neighborhood and can't wait to return again and again :)

I came here on opening day! This cafe is located in between 2 apartment complex buildings and close to other retail stores. It's a little hidden in the back of a community but still easy to find. Spicy crab: the crab was flaky, good portion size, and definitely spicy with the jalapeños! It wasn't as flavorful as the three cheese but it was still good. Toast was a little too burnt for my preference. Three cheese Italian: so savory and sweet! That garlic onion jam makes all the difference! Be sure to try this toast out. I also tried their peanut butter energy balls that were prepackaged in the fridge. They're not as peanut buttery and dense as other ones I've tried but still good. These toasts are a little pricy but they come loaded and it's healthy. I'll definitely be back to try some of their fruit bowls!

Not worth the price. I decided to try this place because I was craving an açaí bowl after having one at oola bowls in PA the week prior. The bowls were so disappointing. The base had very little flavor and was almost watery. Would not recommend or go back especially at their price point.

We came to Toastique after finding that our "remote work" option is closed on Mondays. Sadly Toastique isn't great for remote working (mainly because the music is too loud for working) but the space also is smaller. But overall Toastique is wonderful! I never thought I'd come in and spend money on literal toast, but they have so much more! Smoothies, Açaí bowls, steel cut oats, and coffee and more! The staff were friendly, service did not take long, and everything was so dang delicious!! I definitely will be back...maybe leave the work laptop home though! ;)

I have been by this place a few times whenever I was in the area. I know it is a newer spot but just never went. I decided to give it a try as I was waiting for my car to be worked on. It is an adorable little place with a cute vibe and atmosphere. It is a great place to get some work done. The wifi is free but it is also not secure so just keep that in mind. There is plenty of free parking everywhere. You can choose to park in a garage or park in the open lots. Parking in the garage is a tad farther but it's not that far of a walk. They do have a slight ramp for handicap accessibility and there is seating both inside and outside. In terms of the food.....it's fine. Not much to it. It looks very pretty but I will say it is overpriced for what you are getting. It is not a place I would go to just for the food. The staff were very nice and I was helped pretty much immediately. I believe I got the peanut butter crunch. I try to eat balanced so it was good to get in my necessary nutrients and protein but that's really it. If you are looking for a cute place to go and hang with friends or just have nice work spot, it's perfect. If you are going for the food....well, just don't get your hopes up.

I love this location right next to the splashpad in Merriweather. It is so easy to go in and order or order online. Then I pick up the food and sit in the chairs next to the splashpad. It is a great way to get a snack while the kids are playing and are hungry. They have yummy smoothies on top of toasts. If you get the app, they give you a free juice as a first time user.

I got the original og bowl which was tasty! Satisfying but for the size I would say is pretty pricey. The spicy crab toast was delicious and pretty decent size but also a little pricey for the size

I'll give 4 for ambiance and for the coffee. The food is ok but everything is an avocado toast essentially, true to their name. I might have gotten the wrong thing but I got the chilled pastrami salmon and egg bowl. It tasted like I was eating a bologna sandwich. I was absolutely choking this down trying to finish it. The other thing that bothered me is there is no sugar for your coffee except this random open bowl sitting on the counter with loose sugar. Gross.

Cool menu but there's really no smoothie worth waiting 25 minutes. Nobody in the restaurant. Absolutely atrocious execution.

Decent juice, horrific service. Workers could not show less intention or urgency if they tried - standing in front of the register doesn't seem to indicate to any workers that you would like to place an order; somehow premade juices require great labor to deliver.

Whenever I visit MD or DC, I make a point to eat at Toastique. Their acai bowls are so good - especially the granola. Got a pitaya bowl, a peanut butter bowl, and an avocado smash toast. It's a bit pricey, but so good and filling. Plenty of seating inside and an enjoyable atmosphere. Will be coming back!
