I had an amazing experience at Cafe Taylor! From the moment I walked in, the owner made me feel right at home so welcoming and warm. Ordering was super easy, and the owner was more than happy to accommodate our special requests. I got the Jerk Chicken Philly, and it was absolutely delicious! The jerk seasoning was spot on flavorful and just the right amount of spice. My friend ordered the Philly with the works, and he loved it too.We ended up sharing the sandwiches by spitting them up so we could get the taste for both and the Philly was also amazing too.
We wanted to add more cheese and toppings to our sandwiches, and the owner was more than happy to make those adjustments without a problem.The food came out hot and fresh, and it was evident that everything was made with care.
The vibe inside was great, too Cafe Taylor was playing some of my favorite gospel songs, and the playlist was full of those uplifting bangers. It really set the perfect mood for enjoying a meal.
I can’t wait to go back and try the Salmon Philly next time. Highly recommend this spot if you’re in the area!

We were chowing down before I realized I should take a picture! Everything was so flavorful, tasty, and fresh. Would definitely come back here. The chef/owner was very kind and it was obvious that he cared deeply about the food he was making.

We like going to new places and trying them out. This place is the real deal. The food is delicious. The portions are generous, and the flavor is on point. The tea is the right amount of fresh and sweet. The cheesesteak egg rolls are my favorite.

Not going to lie, food was good. However, the gentleman cooking/serving seemed a little distracted. First sub was made with the wrong meat, I ordered chicken, he cooked steak. No worries, he remade my sandwich. The 2nd time he forgot the banana peppers and mayo. I also didn’t taste much seasoning on the meat but the sandwich had flavor. I was a little suspect because the chicken wasn’t frozen and dripping when he placed it on the griddle but I smelled it and ate half, so far, so good. Cheese was $2 extra for provolone and to make sure there was a good ratio of meat to bread, I ordered extra meat, an extra $4. The extra $4 wasn’t worth it. I asked for my bread to be toasted, it was. The food was cooked to order and piping hot; bread was fresh. The fries were not my favorite but they were cooked hard like I asked and crispy. Portion of food was great. The music was classic R &B and the lobby was clean.

The cheesesteak was EXCELLENT and they start at $9.99. Incredibly affordable and delicious.
As another commenter stated, each bite was balanced and perfectly cheesy.
5/5 will be telling my friends about this spot.

Cafe Taylor is hands down a must-visit in the Newport News area! The HONEY HOT wings are absolutely incredible seriously some of the best I’ve ever had. The fries were amazing too, perfectly cooked and flavorful. If I had one tiny suggestion, maybe a bit more cheese on the Philly (or maybe that’s just my personal taste), but it was delicious nonetheless. My husband and I will definitely be back! A huge thank you to the owner for being so kind and making everything fresh it really made the experience wonderful. Seriously, those wings… wow!

Definitely hitting up this place whenever I’m in the area again. Also did not expect the Okra taste as good as it did. This place does Okra the best. Ended up getting a take out order for my friends and they thought the burger was the one of the best burgers they’ve had same goes for the Cheesesteak.
