It's rare that I make the trek to Maryland for a meal - despite it being pretty close. But, I was meeting with friends nearby, so they suggested The Cornucopia Cafe.
This sweet restaurant has a barn-chic vibe. Lovely wooden floors, giant wooden beans, a stone fireplace, yet delicate white lights and a corrugated steel bar. It's a really lovely space.
The Cornucopia Café serves a fresh menu centered around local food, featuring breakfast, lunch and dinner daily. We’ve gathered our favorite recipes into a scrumptious selection of quiche, panini, fresh pasta, soup, salad and stir-fry, and included a bar with beer, wine and homemade sodas. Visit the to-go counter for specialty coffee and food to take along on your morning commute, or for a satisfying mid-day pick-me-up.
Our outdoor seating will provide ample space for your next book club gathering, getting together with friends for a glass of wine or a lunch meeting with colleagues.
The menu has a nice mix of sandwiches, salads, and big plates. There was something called a "Pimento Cheese Wickey," which of course immediately caught my attention. It's a thick spread of their original house specialty pimento cheese between two slices of toasted white bread. I also got a side of the broccoli salad. The sandwich was really tasty! It was SO cheesy and a hint of spicy, but absolutely delish. I love the broccoli salad for some texture, a bit of sweetness and a bit of acidity. Seriously, one good lunch.
