Ok, so let’s talk predominately children oriented museum food. The new Greens & Grains salad bar is everything! So many choices for gluten-free and vegetarian as well. Dedicated staff that clearly cares. You have a bit of everything… Healthy options available, fresh fruit salad, also Burgers, Chicken nuggets with fries, Asian inspired dishes, etc… Best Yogurt Parfait and Chia Seed Pudding! Plus… Let’s not forget the view!

Atrocious pricing for absolutely unacceptable portions. Food quality is par, but the prices remove any positives. The staff is rude and useless, we waited for 5 minutes while the cashier scanned 3 items. Spoke no English. Awful experience. Shame on the Museum for allowing such poor

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Mike Ryker · Jul 2024

Food options were about average for this type of museum cafe. Definitely look past the bottled drinks as they have cheaper fountain options you get at the register.

Horrible customer service, the employee forgot my order then tried to gaslight me into thinking i didn’t order.

Wow. This place makes other museum cafes look pretty bad. The food is legitimately good. Like, would go to eat here even if I wasn't visiting the museum good. Prices are reasonable, which was a total shock. And, you can sit where you have a beautiful view of the river. Surprisingly wonderful experience when we needed something to eat when visiting the museum.
