I love eating breakfast here! I am a recurring customer, and the lunch lounge never disappoints. I ordered the Big Toasty, substituted for egg whites and added avocado. I usually get it on a jalapeño bagel, but this time I had it on a plain bagel. It was delicious as always. The bagels are always perfectly toasty on the outside and chewy on the inside.To top it off I ordered a large iced caramel macchiato. It was so good. I could taste the espresso and caramel. It was not overly sweet. I recommend their Medicine Ball tea as well. It is so delicious and soothing for the throat and nose.

Okay I have to start off by saying I dont like deli restaurants that are located in the same places as corporate businesses. The food hasnt been good and Im usually just desperate to not reach a state of hangry. I also need time to relax and it doesnt feel relaxing being that close to Corporate. That is my only beef with this place. I was heading to the airport and stopped here which is what I like about this place....location. I needed real food not airport hurt your stomach junk. The sandwiches are amazing. Good thick fresh bread, happy fixings for meat and non meat eaters and if you like your bread toasted, they toast it. The cashier is warm and patient and the drinks were great for those with a sweet tooth and those without. Food presentation is even nice. So if youre around the area, pop on in. You wont be disappointed.

Honestly a perfect grab and go or sit down breakfast, brunch, or lunch establishment. Food is prepared with care and respect for quality ingredients at good prices. If you are near by 100% give them a visit

My girlfriend and I had a couple hours layover and needed a quick bite to eat and the google reviews on this place didn’t disappoint. Bacon breakfast burrito > bacon panini.

Best sandwiches in the area. They use boars head meats and other high-quality ingredients. Coffee bar is convenient with some great options too. Quick and friendly service. I dont even work in this center anymore but still stop here for lunch whenever I get the chance. Reasonable pricing.

I can appreciate people who stand by their principles, and I stand by mine. Its business like these that make government take action for the rest. I walked in to grab breakfast as I was looked at the menu the employee gave me a kind greeting. I immediately notice that none of the employees or cooks or wearing face masks. Then the employee that greeted me turned there head an coughed. Like I said I can appreciate people who stand for their principals but not at the expense of others or my heath. I have the right to life liberal and the pursuit of happiness and I cant have any of those if Im in a hospital bed or 6ft under. Be considerate of others dont make others sick just because you want to take a stand and dont force government to have to take action. You wear gloves when you handle food and you hands dont make germs your mouth does it just makes sense.

Craving a healthy lunch but still want a little spice ? Stop by the lunch lounge they have this amazing sandwich called Southwest Chipotle Chicken Panini definitely not your regular sandwich as it hasSliced Chicken Breast, Bacon, Pepperjack Cheese, Tomato and Chipotle Mayo grilled on Sourdough. The chipotle mayo just makes it pop in your mouth! If you don’t want that extra kick they have several different sandwiches & salads ! You can even make your own! & to top it off they have these amazing desserts for example the chocolate chip muffin and the chocolate chip cookie both SUPER SOFT AND SCRUMPTIOUS! They also serve breakfast until 11AM which I will try Soon ! 😋

This is the first Google review Ive ever left in my 27 years of life, but I moved to Phoenix in October and beyond thankful to discover this place as soon as i did. I eat here weekly and have tried as many sandwiches as possible, and every single sandwich was amazing and very well made. They arent just standard sandwiches and there plenty of choices. Will be eating here weekly for years to come!

Today we tried The Lunch Lounge for the first time. I was looking for something different for lunch and this place hit the spot! I had the Southwest Chipotle Chicken Panini and it wad extraordinary. The hot chocolate was probably one of the best ones Ive ever had. The location is a few minutes from the airport right by the Hampton inn and Residence Inn hotels. If you are looking for something different, great prices, a good environment and great food try The Lunch Lounge. This is basically a hidden gem.

I eat here all the time and I use their app which allows a free sandwich after buying 10. Today they screwed me out of my free sandwich. I redeemed it and told the cashier. She checked us out and I paid without making sure I got my free sandwich which I didnt. There was a line so he didnt want to have to void the transaction and start over so my compensation was 1 extra punch. Should have given me enough to get me to the next free one so I would still get one. Not happy about it. I dont understand why they struggle so much with their app. Sandwich was good as usual.

WOW! This was literally one of the best sandwiches I have ever had. The location is pretty hidden but Im glad to have found it. A lot of free parking, quick service and delicious ingredients. I had the southwest chipotle chicken panini and it was just amazing. The staff was incredibly friendly and the environment is very comfortable and relaxed.

Its a nice place very clean I just ordered a smoothie but the cashier looked at me like strange maybe because I was wearing my mask all the time because nobody in there was wearing a mask, I dont know I feel like she was criticized me and took like 13 minutes to give me my smoothie.

Review №37

This is the “berry smoothie” I ordered for $7. It was literally just berry syrup blended with ice or milk or something - and obviously separated extremely easy. Biggest waste of money. I would NEVER consider this a smoothie, AND FOR $7?! This is something you charge MAYBE $3. Soooo disappointed. This picture was after a 20 min drive home. It tasted like I was drinking straight syrup on the bottom.I did have the chipotle chicken wrap from here and that I was happy with, as to why I didn’t give 1 star for this “smoothie.” Very disappointed with my drink choice as I was expecting real fruit/berries.

Dont spend too long looking at the menu before ordering, they wont go 1 second past 11am for breakfast. No acknowledgment when you walk in.. Terrible service!EDIT - Reply to OwnerThank-you for your response, however the information you presented is incorrect. I was in the cafe approx 10 mins before 11am, the female staff member was not at the counter until just before I actually ordered. It was most certainly seconds after 11am, regardless the explanation was not given at the time and I stand by the service being terrible!

I was able to visit last week ago and enjoy a fresh sub w/ banana peppers. The sandwich was fresh and staff was friendly, and service was good. The restaurant is a little small, however, there is seating outside for enjoying the nice days, which is a great addition. Finding the restaurant was a bit hard as I thought it was inside the building, but its around the side with an entrance in the outside.If youre in the Phoenix area and looking for a nice, clean place to visit, give them a try.

Being in the hospitality service I find it hard to be surprised with exceptional service. Then here I was left with a one of kind exceptional service experiences. The operation is a wonderful hidden gem with quality food with bold flavors. It’s the perfect touch of a local business thriving on genuine service and top notch ingredients. I’m sure to be back for my personal appetite and catering services.

I stopped by for lunch with some coworkers and walked into the smell of bacon, so I knew it was going to be good. The panini were especially amazing--perfectly toasted! The location is a little tucked away, but theres ample parking and the service is friendly and quick, so I would definitely recommend checking this place out if you work in the area.

Stopped by for a bite of lunch while I was in the area: plenty of free parking, a wonderful patio outside, and a great deli-vibe inside. The service was so friendly, and the food was fabulous. Try the fiesta grilled chicken wrap if you want a tasty ( HUGE) grilled wrap with a kick of heat. I definitely recommend this if you are in the downtown/airport area

I eat here for lunch regularly and the food is always on point! Ordered a California Club sandwich today and it was toasted just right. They filled the sandwich with a heaping portion of turkey, it was definitely worth the $8. It can get pretty busy around lunch time so I’d recommend using their online order system so you can just walk in, grab your meal, and go! Love this place!

Found this place by just searching local lunch spots (was working at a diff store) and it had rave reviews. Went in and it was easy as pie to order. This salad was the best salad I have had in my 31yrs. I was absolutely impressed and plan to go back for sure. Already sent many coworkers over there who love it as well. Check out their menu, you wont regret it.

Love this hidden little gem! First of all, it’s adorable. The wall decor and produce puns are my absolute favorite. But the thing that will keep me coming back is the FOOD. Awesome selection. Great drink options. The unsweetened pomegranate green tea is amazing. I had the Reuben and my coworker had the chipotle chicken sandwich. Both were so so tasty and I love that they carry huberts lemonade. The cookies are also fantastic and HUGE. Highly recommend. Cannot wait to come back
