Really good salads with a build your own menu. I usually get mixed greens, bacon, onions and their really good crumbly bleu cheese with either the balsamic vinaigrette, peppercorn or sesame ginger mandarin dressing. Go easy on the toppings if you don't want to spend a lot, though. They charge for each additional topping in increments. I usually end up spending under $7 for the salad I described.
They also do good sandwich specials. The ham and brie with Dijon mustard on a croissant was awesome and pretty cheap.
Salads and sandwiches are a go but I would stay away from their pastry options. They look unappealing and old and sadly taste stale accordingly.
Located in Newarks' Gateway Center which connects to Newark Penn Station. I often stop by in the morning to grab a bottle of water or apiece of fruit. People working there are pleasant. I've never tried the food but they do a good business so I would guess the food is decent. Not open late like most places in the Gateway.
If you want a better selection than the food at McDonalds in Newark Penn Station, take the walkway across to Gateway Center. The Gateway Bistro features self-serve coffee and tea plus a wide selection of deli sandwichs and salads. Some of the pre-wrapped items are labeled kosher.
I stopped in for a decent breakfast sandwich and coffee. Fast and friendly service. Courtyard seating. Several flat screens tuned to NJ NEWS12. But no wi-fi so I will be going back to McDonalds.
Seven years working in Newark and this place in Gateway just hasn't grown on me-and I don't know why. They make a pretty decent salad here, but as someone else said, it can get pricey the more toppings you add. The sandwiches they make for lunch are pretty good, but you can do better price-wise. On my way to catch a train I've also had a to-go pre-made sandwich, which I usually stay away from, but it wasn't bad (turkey and cheese).
On the more positive side, I've always enjoyed the soups I've had here, in fact they make some of the best soups in Gateway. The breakfasts here are also pretty decent…you can get an egg and cheese on whole wheat that gives you a nice start to your day.
So why hasn't this place grown on me? Not sure. The people who work there haven't always been the most pleasant, the prices are a little high, but I really can't put my finger on it. Maybe I just need to give them another shot.
