"Luncheonette café is located very centrally in Lausanne and grabbed my attention due to their outdoor bicycle-trailer that had a bounty of fresh fruits and vegetables. My colleague and myself decided to give it a shot as we are always happy to try different restaurants...in Lausanne especially considering the lack of value for money establishments here. The decoration is very eclectic and whimsical which gives the place a certain playfulness to it. Being very small and having limited seats, it gets quite loud in there though. The line can also get pretty long especially for lunch. We probably used up half of our lunch break waiting to be served at the counter and an extra 15 minutes for the food to arrive. They probably need a third person helping to expedite the process. My colleague tried the home made lemonade and I took one of the drinks specials suggested on the blackboard. They were both ok but the prices were quite steep (around 5 CHF 9 CHF respectively). The food finally came after quite a while and we were excited to get down to business. We tried the tex mex wrap and the chicken quesadilla that day. They were both let-downs, not worth a second visit as they cost between 15-20CHF. The meat to wrap ratio for both of us were laughable but I understand that they use pricey and bio/healthy ingredients. Does this justify such a markup and am I getting value out my 20 CHF lunch allowance? Definitely not. That being said, the servers were very friendly and welcoming. Just might come back for the that."
