Had lunch at Bayona for the first time on a recent Friday and was very pleasantly surprised. The cafe is unassuming from the outside of the building but once down the hall and at the entry of the restaurant, all that changes. It is spacious yet cozy inside with a very comfortable relaxing vibe. My lunch companions and I tried different menu items: a specialty burger, the salad special, and the 1/2 and 1/2 soup and sandwich. All were beautifully presented, fresh and delicious. Some patrons were dashing in for take-out orders but it was nice for us to sit and relax while enjoying a true treasure of a spot!
Hidden gem located in the north end of the Manchester mill yards. Casual but professional atmosphere that bring the history of the mills all around you. Food is great and reasonably priced. Best falafel wraps I have ever had. It's a walk in, order, sit down and they bring your food to your table system. Great working lunch spot. Not much in the way of parking.
I work in the same building as the café and I love the food...only big downfall is price. But since this is the only food area in the building they will continue to get my money or I wont be lazy and make my own food...lots of seasoned items definitely not a quick sandwich place. Good food and I feel great after I eat it not like some fast food chain...I think they are on the right path for sure!
The food at Bayona is generally good with a wide range of options. Their flat bread pizzas are great and their burgers are delicious. I highly recommend the southwest burger. It has roasted fresh jalapenos and pairs very well with fresh fruit as a side to cool you down. However, if fruit isn't your thing the fries are excellent too. They generally have good specials.
It's a bit hard to find which is both a blessing and a curse because it's rarely overly busy.
The staff at the Bayona are above and beyond. I recently left my charge card in the machine on the counter and at the end of the day it was delivered back to me at my office! How's that for service! The food is always good, service is fast and the catering is "on the ball". Can't say enough about how pleased I am to do business with professionals!
Loved this food. Great quality, generous lunch serving, I had a special order for my sandwich and they got it just right! It was a little tricky to find but worth the effort. I'll definitely go back.
I have re-visited Bayona, several times after my initial review and the wait time had improve a lot. So with good food, friendly staff and fast service I am adding an additional star for the improvement.

Good breakfast but slow. One customer in front of me but took 20 mins to get my order.
