I know that this is a random place to give a review but I think they deserve a 5-star review. My mom was hospitalized at the Walnut Creek Kaiser for 9 days back in May and I had to either eat all my meals at their Wellness Creek Cafe or eat my mom's leftover hospital patient food which was a hit or a complete miss... :'-) The food at the Wellness Creek Cafe is shockingly good. It would've been nice if my middle school and high school cafeteria food was this good LOL. You really wouldn't expect such quality and taste from a hospital cafeteria, but trust me this place could honestly be a restaurant. They give you such generous portions and it's reasonably priced. They offer a lot of healthy options as well since, you know, it's a hospital LOL. I've had their cheesesteak probably 5+ times because it was so good. The grilled onions and bell peppers come with it and are a great addition to the sandwich. It may not be as salty as some may prefer but it was perfect for me. I've tried their regular fries and sweet potato fries and they were pretty good as well -- btw they bake them and not deep fry them so you won't feel as guilty eating them! They have sauces like bbq and ranch in the back so just ask for it! They also have daily specials and it's different every day. One day they were serving salmon and I had to take a picture because it was absolutely delicious. I'm not a huge fan of grilled salmon and usually only eat raw salmon sashimi or nigiri. But this salmon was super soft and melted in my mouth. I always try cooking salmon at home and can never get it to be fluffy and moist. But the salmon here was so good I almost went back in line for another serving even though I was stuffed. The only thing I would say to avoid is their smoothies. I ordered the mango and coconut one but not gonna lie... it was pretty bad :( but don't underestimate their other dishes!! Nothing was disappointing and left my tummy very full and happy :)

Very very friendly staff, they have quesadillas hamburgers soups, chips and coffee and very many more things to choose from.

Opens early, great staff. They will make your meal to your liking. You have to pay before you pickup your food. Way better than the run of the mill cafeteria food. There are healthy choices available, and they Thrive for it. It gets really busy in the morning as the shifts change from Nights to Days. They make a hearty breakfast burrito with turkey, eggs, and potatoes with salsa and sour cream. Its really good and reasonably priced. No need to carry cash as they accept all major credit cards. If you're here after hours, they have vending machines available. Otherwise, there's a Safeway not to far from here thats open 24 hours.
