Pretty good food. However, today they did something that wasnt so nice. They had published coupons for OSU students stating that they would offer a free small yumm bowl to try on both October 16th & November 20th from 5pm to 9pm. Well, tonight (October 16th) at 8:35pm when my husband and I went to use the coupon, they were closed! Apparently, they had been closed since 8pm! While sitting there discussing where to go and get food, we saw at LEAST 12-15 other people trying to get in the doors within just a few minutes. Cafe Yumm had put a sign on the door saying the offer was also valid on November 20th. Well, yeah. People can read the coupon, man. However, we planned on going there tonight! This was a really sad disappointment for my husband and me. After hitting BK, we drove by and saw another two girls trying to get in right around 9pm. I think this was a really bad example of service. I mean, I realize this was a freebie promotion, but if you advertise it until 9pm, you shouldnt suddenly close at 8pm. That seems wrong to me and, considering how many people we saw trying the door and looking sad/annoyed, this is not going to reflect well on the local cafe yumm.

Ate at this restaurant for the first time today and was not impressed. Two sandwiches and a pop for $16 is pricey, even for Corvallis. We tried both the turkey panini and turkey n berry sandwich. The panini looked terrible (flattened bread, few toppings) and was bland. The turkey n berry was pretty good, about average for similar sandwiches Ive had at other places (but a whole sandwich cost $7). The corn chips were awful. We tried a few, but they were stale and had no flavor. Overall, if you are looking for a flavorful lunch at a reasonable price I would not recommend this place.

Ordered the soup of the day: cheese potato. Thin like a broth, no particular cheesy or potato-y taste - more like a non-descript vegetable soup. Came with bread and butter which was fine. I love places that have combos, and maybe their other soups are better. But, most of us would agree a cheese potato soup should be thick and comforting, Not likely to go back.

I love me some Cafe Yumm. Picking anything up here is a great option, as even if you get a large, you will be hungry by the next meal. Portions are right and the food is a healthy alternative to a lot of fast food joints. This location has an upstairs, which we didnt go to, but I assume it was more seating. The downstairs was fairly small.

Simple, fresh, healthy food. The staff is always very friendly, and they can customize your order easily to make it just the way you like it. Overall, an excellent little place to grab lunch in Corvallis. My favorite is the Hot n Jazzy bowl. (And I like it best with brown rice and carrots/cabbage instead of cheese & sour cream.)

All of the Yumm bowls Ive had have been delicious. Its a little expensive for how much food you get, but the type of food means that you get a satisfying meal even in a small bowl. Tastes very fresh. You can also buy Yumm sauce to take home, which is a great way to save money in the long run.

Good food. You could make any bowl that you choose into a burrito, but I prefer a bowl. My personal favorite is the Original Bowl. It has a great variety of food. Many, many vegetarian options. The place has some pretty decor as well. So, it would be a good place to invite your friends to.

I would give 5 stars but the price doesnt reflect the quantity. I paid $2.50 for 4 small (bite sized) strips of chicken. I paid just under $10 for a large bowl of veggies with 4 small bite sized pieces of chicken. Love the food but I have a hard time paying that much for the size.

It can get pretty cramped in here at the lunch hour, but the food is always quick, fresh, and delicious. The staff is also very friendly. If youre looking for a healthy quick meal thats vegan or veggitarian this place is great.

Delicious food that you dont have to feel bad about. An amazing variety of vegetarian dishes for dinner, lunch or breakfast. It used to be GREAT for breakfast but it is still good these days with a smaller breakfast menu.

The "Hot and Jazzy Bowl" (which I always feel a little silly saying when I order it) is great and worth coming for alone. The staff are all very nice. Great vegetarian food (though you can get chicken with most dishes).

For vegans: this place always has vegan options and the staff always knows what vegan is and will accommodate you with no complaints! The yumm sauce is nooch heaven, put it on everything! Good affordable healthy food.

I absolutely love this place and the food regardless of the price. Although I would like to point out that this says the close closes at 9 but really they close at 8, hard to find that out the hard way

Terrific location, menu, atmosphere, view of busiest street on campus. Tasty vegan options. I recommend picking up a bottle of their signature sauce to take home, on every visit.

We got the hot-n-jazzy bowl and it wasnt spicy at all. It tasted good, especially the Jasmine rice. We bought chips and dipped them in the bowl. It was real good.

The only thing I have ordered there so far is the Original Yum Bowl, but it is really good. My wife tried it first, and liked it and now she has me hooked!

The food is great! I always leave feeling healthy. I just think its a little pricey. I usually get the medium, but the amount of food looks like a small..

Chris Harper

The food is great. I personally like the smoky bowl. Service is quick and the atmosphere is nice. Can sometimes be fairly busy at certain times.

Tristan Pott

The Yum sauce is what makes everything delicious. Im not sure how healthy it is, but its unique, reasonably priced, and makes a great lunch.

Cye Larson

One of my favorite places in the northwest to eat. And being able to leave with a giant bottle of yumm sauce is a huge plus.

Matt Collum

A very fresh and, so far, consistently good. To spendy for a consistent trip in, but really good when you do choose to go.

Love the nori in the edamame bowl, theyll also let you request for items to not be included, such as cilantro

I love the food, but its kinda pricey for what it is. You could make most of the dishes at home easily for $1
