Great Earth Cafe & Market

It took a little to put in the order, but it was good to find something healthy in Madras. Dishes: - The chicken strawberry salad was fine, but the bread a bit bland. - The portobello burger was great, oozing with cheese, and the spinach was a good addition, though it should have been chopped more finely. The sweet potato fries were also done right: crispy but thick enough to be a little meaty. - The tuna salad was not so good, as the tuna was very dry. We were satisfied overall, and the food came within 5, 10, or 15 minutes, which was fine. - The Black Forest ham sandwich and supreme ham panini were both good. There were plenty of options on the menu. The table and dining area were a bit dirty, as the servers were too busy to clean up (there were a couple but seemed stretched thin). - The fruit tart was really good, sticky sweet and exactly what it should be.

Amazing, give this restaurant a try if you're in madras. Local ingredients, fresh made, even the bread for the burger was local made, rustic, crunchy perfect. The burger was large, with bacon, brisket and avocado, the fresh cut fries were crispy golden with perfect salt and pepper. The Cuban sandwiches were delicious, lots of cheese and brisket for flavor. The smoothie are made with fresh squeezed orange juice and not too sweet Lots of comfortable seating. Easy for a group of nine and more.

Our family stopped for lunch on our way to Portland, OR. We ordered the Mango Shrimp, Chicken w/ strawberry salad, the portobello mushroom burger, the turkey and pesto panini and a raspberry scone. All of the dishes were delicious! The best part was the moist and tasty gluten free bread! I’d buy it by the loaf if I lived here. Special thanks to the owner who allowed us to finish our meal after they had closed.
