Lingo Cafe - Needham

This place has good food at a great price. I have been coming here daily for months. I was just told that the public is no longer allowed to order food, only students. Maybe they need to put this new policy on their website so that people don't order online only to be told that you cannot have your food.

As a north point resident, I frequent Little Lingo and Lingo all the time for breakfast before work and after work for the occasional drink. Today I think I quite possibly received the worst service I have received at the bar at lingo. My friend and I were shocked by the sass and stupidity of the bartender tonight, clearly she hasn't made enough money tonight from the below industry standard salaries of the workers of EF. I hope the nice, tall, blonde lady is there next and hopefully I can improve on my review. I'm not one to write one but I've never experienced the kind of poor service I received from the short, black hair lady. Perhaps it's because of the fact I was only 1 of 2 black people there, not quite sure but I was denied alcohol and she proceeded to not ID the next 9 people who bought drinks including a group of EF interns that I know for a fact had 1 that wasn't 21. PS: The new chicken wrap sucks, the chicken avo was way better. I know avocados are up in price because of Trumps stupid tariffs but pass on the cost to the customer don't remove the best thing on the menu.

Love the bartenders. They are very kind and generous. Food is good too! Nachos, chicken fingers and loaded fries are favorites for snacks. Usually a very international environment so it's a cool hangout spot

Hidden gem tucked away in a hushed office building on a Monday). Seems like a great place for after work drinks, or if you want a low key margarita before trekking around the gorgeous parks. It's set near the highway, but I enjoy the urban soundscapes. I hate to admit that parking is wicked easy here. But more about the bar minimalist liquor list covers all the bases, and my barkeep Mike was quick to make me a stiff Manhattan. And talk about easy on the eyes! ;

The restaurant is set up cafeteria-style, allowing customers to walk in, grab their desired food, and pay at the register. There are many fresh food options available for all types of diets. I stopped by because my child was hungry while we were at the park nearby. I ended up getting hummus and pretzel chips, but was tempted by the delicious-looking food at the burger station, sandwich station, and Japanese noodle station. The noodle station seemed to be a popular choice among customers. Additionally, there was an antipasto bar, a fresh cookie area, hot coffee and tea, and a variety of cold beverages including kombucha. The restaurant has plenty of seating both indoors and outdoors, with lots of natural light streaming in through the windows. It's a welcoming and bright place to enjoy breakfast, lunch, or a quick snack.
