The lady who attended us was super sweet and friendly (I’m sorry I forgot your name!) I ordered the Fig Pig and omg it was so delicious. The tuna sandwich was so good as well. There are also board games and books! Overall an amazing experience.

Stopped by Columbia on a road trip and grabbed some lunch from this spot! This spot is a great mix between a lounge cafe and lunch spot! You can also borrow some games from the cafe to play while you’re there! They also have love music/ open mic nights

Unassuming Eatery with playful, casual ambiance. Food was fantastic for a weekday lunch. Service was quick and friendly. I had the avocado toast with marinated tomato salad and it was gorgeous and really tasty. I’ve had that other places and this is the best avocado toast hands down. Other menu items bought were the roasted chicken wrap, hummus and pita. Definitely a win for Columbia and I’ll be returning as often as I can!

What a delightful spot for a meal in downtown Columbia! The GOAT Avocado Toast and pistachio pasta salad were unbelievable. Excellent portions and complex flavors. Very good value for the money. I wish I lived close enough to become a regular here! The ambience was light and fun with board games scattered about and upbeat music playing. Good vibes, great service, and even better food!

I have had a challenging time with meals in Columbia, but Sound Bites broke that streak! I wandered in for lunch and ordered the amazing “That’s Bologna” sandwich with pasta salad.

First time at a new place, Sound Bites Eatery, for me. The reviews seemed good so I headed over there for lunch. This place has some fantastic sandwiches making it hard to choose. I decided on the smoked salmon sandwich with tomatoes, onions, some small greens and a smear of caper, cream cheese etc spread. Only one word to describe. Excellentè!!! The were many sides to choose that were included wiith the sandwiches. I chose the pistachio macaroni salad and it was very good. I definitely will be back for this great place.

I LOVE SOUNDBITES!!!! Was introduced to this place from people at the office I used to intern at, and I come whenever I’m able to during lunchtime. Wonderful place, kind staff, delicious food. I’ve tried a bunch of different things here, and I personally think that everything is a hit! From the greek salad to the avocado toast, all of it is kust sooo great. Amazing vegetarian options as well. Love it here, I’ll always come back!

Nice place but very expensive. I paid $19.26 for a chicken salad. The greens are $11, they charge extra for spinach and the chicken comes at an extra $5. You can add four toppers. I got three very thin slices of avocado, four tinny slices of banana peppers, some pieces of cucumber, and some leaves of artichoke hearts. Very frugal.

My son and I stopped by for lunch on July 3rd because Crepes & Croissants was closed. We’ve eaten here before a year prior and thought the food was decent so decided to give it another shot. We walked in only to be completely ignored. No one said a word to us. We thought maybe they were just busy or distracted so we walked to the front cashier and looked at the menu. We stood there for a good 1-2 minutes, still no one greeted us or asked us if we were ready to place an order. Then a couple walked in and they were greeted enthusiastically and asked if they were going take out or eating there. My son and I felt so invisible and discriminated against we just walked out. I never write reviews but I decided to write one for this business because of the way they treat certain customers. I own a business myself and treat everyone equally and fairly which is what this restaurant should be doing.

My wife and I stumbled upon Sound Bites after a leaving the hospital and man are we glad we did! The atmosphere was great, there are board games and card games scattered all around the restaurant to play while you wait(we didn’t have to wait long) and the staff were all fantastic. The food was unbelievable!! The Notorious BLT is the best BLT I have ever had!! The mac and cheese is to die for and my wife’s You Drive me Caprese sandwich was excellent as well!! We will be back for sure!!
