Joy's Once Upon a Thyme

Joy’s is truly a local gem and joy to visit. The customer service was top notch and the service was fast, given the circumstances. Likewise, the portions are generous and they over delivered in the taste and texture categories. The restroom was clean (a huge one). We haven’t found a better carrot cake than the one PCC sold back on the Eastside; we’ve been through WA and OR in search of an equal slice. Joy’s carrot cake curb stomped our once favorite PCC slices, thus obviating any need to revisit our past haunts. You can say we’re customers for life. If you’re a huge panini fan (which I am not), this is your joint. I’m not against them, I’ve just never experienced this caliber of sandwich before, regardless of the cost. Don’t wait!

The staff is very friendly. They let you sample the soup of the day before you buy. The price is great they have home feeling I side with some antique looks. I upload some pictures of the inside. What is also great is that you order your food and then pick your seating.

Once Upon a Thyme was a wonderful place to stop on our way out of town! We arrived just before the lunch rush, so we were able to get a table right away, and the food came out quickly. There’s a great variety to choose from, and everything is made fresh. The sandwiches are made to order, and the chicken and other meats are smoked on-site, which really adds to the flavor. The wraps were big enough to share, and everything tasted amazing. There’s plenty of parking both in the lot and on the street. The pastries looked absolutely delicious—I wish I had picked one up! The decor is super cute, and the staff was incredibly friendly. As we sat and enjoyed our food, we noticed that this place had been featured on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives with Guy Fieri—and I can totally see why! Great job, y

Their food is absolutely delicious, I had a portobello panini and a cup of curry coconut cashew carrot soup. The atmosphere was a bit loud for me, but it may be due to it being lunch time. I love the decor, so eclectic and fun.

From the first bite I was hooked! The Chicken Pesto was incredibly delicious. Looking forward to coming back!
