Banyan Cafe in Sarasota

Lovely, and adequate.

Great for a quick snack or lunch between museums!

Not that good.

They switched owners due to convid but always was a great experience when I went.

This place has real potential, the facility is well designed but under utilized. That said, the limited choices of prepared food were well made and reasonably quick.

Very expensive and very limited choices. The cashier was okay, and the guys behind the counter were pretty nice. But I couldn't get over the fact that we paid over $20 for two small, not very good sandwiches with chips and one drink to share. I'd recommend eating before you get to the museum or after you leave, if possible.

good spot for a quick bite and something to drink.

Great atmosphere

good

Hot dogs, cheeseburger and soups. Lots more too.

A good place to rest your feet when touring the grounds

Ok for a quick bite or a cold drink. Outdoor seating only.

Great for a quick snack, beautiful scenery and the staff is very friendly! Would definitely recommend!

It would be really nice having those tables and under AC area!

great patio surrounded with nature good options with food , very relaxing and very nice staff

Such a blessing! Bathrooms closest to the playground in the middle of Ringling

Average cafe food, somewhat pricey as expected.

Hit the spot. Wonderful staff. Thank you.

Very cool setting amongst some incredibly large Banyan trees!

Convenient and good service

Expensive

Great food.

Disorganized, confusing, expensive. But the actual food wasn't bad.

Beautiful little cafe with very tasty sandwiches, get the chicken salad 😀

Great food, Great Service, alot of variety. Staff is very friendly and the restaurant has a beautiful back drop of nature and Banyan Trees. Very serene, highly recommend visitting if you're ever on the Ringling Museum property!

As a former employee I have to say the management runs it very poorly. They use the cheapest product they can get yet charge as its the muse.

Definitely recommend stopping by this little cafe when you visit the art museum. The staff is great & the atmosphere is calm, laid back, & very beautiful.

Expensive and ok food

Good for a quick lunch when you are hungry while visiting Ringling. Kind of a hidden shack. Hot dog, burger, chips. Not that satisfying. Step it up, Banyan.

Food and service were great! I will definitely return.

I enjoyed an art pause and a great hamburger with my friend Kirsten here. It was wonderful and the hamburger was delicious! The kids working here are so sweet. They even brought our little meal over to our picnic table. Wow!

Meh

Good food and friendly service from the Museum outdoor cafe. No table service, you order from inside at a counter and after you pay they bring you you cooked to order food. For $8, you do get a lot of chicken nuggets, enough to share. I had a Nathan's hotdog.

Very few selections, but very good for a quick lunch.

Quick bites

Nice intimate setting and excellent food at a fair price.

Great fast food for the Ringling Museum. Walking on the grounds is beautiful!

Some items are kind of prciey, just okay food geared towards kids.

Little bit prissy but we liked the food.

Great place for lunch while visiting ca da zan

Wonderful place for your family to enjoy.

Was very sick from eating their BLT salad.

Basic snacks.

Descent food. Ok atmosphere.

Good for a quick bite while visiting The Ringling.

Drinks and Snacks. Quiet place with beautiful views

Pure tourist trap. Y ok are trapped if you want to eat. The food sucks.

Seems like the quality of food has really gone downhill at the Banyan which is really sad because this used to be a refreshing pitstop while we wandered the estate.

Slow service, museum food prices. Pack a lunch instead

Food was not great and was overpriced
