Mingle & Graze is a cute locally owned café and charcuterie maker in downtown Chandler. You can order charcuterie boards but they also have a full menu of sandwiches, salads etc. I came in with a group and there was plenty of seating. The ambiance is very cute as well. We all got the lunch special which is a half sandwich with either salad or soup for $13.50. I got the blue cow grilled cheese and tomato soup. What a delicious sandwich! It had roast beef, a jam, pepper relish, havarti and blue cheese. It was really tasty and just the right amount of blue cheese to be tasty and not overwhelming. Everyone in our group enjoyed their meal though I will say the person who got the brie, fig jam and prosciutto one was especially happy! read more

Stopped in today to order a charcuterie board for a wine tasting at my house in a couple of nights. I had heard about mingle and graze and sampled a number of their amazing cheeses when I was at wine tastings at Spin The Bottle right around the corner. This is a husband and wife team that manage and own both places. While standing at the counter, deciding what charcuterie board I was going to order I took a quick look at their menu and boy does it look good. Hummus boards, salads, and sandwiches. All freshly made in this little café, which is small but charming there is an outdoor patio with like four tables , but it's far too hot this summer to eat out there. For sure I'll be back in the fall out there with Luna enjoying this wonderful café. I was there with my daughter and what caught her eye was the muffaletta sandwich. A classic I couldn't get past the menu, grilled cheese sandwich, options, and asked the owner what was her favorite and recommendation. She immediately said the grilled cheese with birria and I think a Gouda cheese. We grabbed one of the booths and the sandwiches were out shortly. OMG, they both were unbelievable, but I had trouble keeping my daughter's hand off my plate. Honestly, this is one of the best grilled cheese I've ever had. And I consider myself a grilled cheese aficionado. Mingle & Graze is in a central downtown Chandler location, lots of parking out front. Love these little non-chain cafés with great homemade food that's different and original. I highly recommend you check out this place and when the weather is a bit nicer, order some food and sit out on the patio with a nice bottle of wine curated from Spin The Bottle. What a great spot read more

I can't believe I haven't written a review for Mingle + Graze yet!!! Genuinely the BEST restaurant in Chandler, without a doubt. Service is so extremely kind and friendly. The food is incredible, and the lunch deals are banging! I recently moved away from Chandler and I really miss the food here. Support small businesses and give mingle + graze all your money!!! read more

Mingle & Graze is located in downtown Chandler; my husband and I stopped by here for dinner closer to the time they opened on a Saturday, and it wasn't very busy yet. They seated us right away and gave a rundown of the menu. We couldn't pass up on the meat / cheese plate, so we started with that. I'm a fan of charcuterie boards; this one was a good one. In chatting with who I think was the owner (?), mentioned that they change their selections every so often, so if you come back at a later time, they may have something different. We also got another dish from their seasonal menu with eggplant. It was pretty substantial even though it was vegetarian. Overall, if you're looking for a casual date night spot, this would fit the bill. Happy to see that this area is growing! read more

Such a great little spot in old downtown Chandler! Super chill vibe, with a few outdoor tables that are perfect for hanging out and people-watching. They've got an awesome mix of healthy and delicious stuff -- fresh salads, a nice deli selection, and some really great cheese plates (definitely grab one with a glass of wine). Speaking of wine, the list is solid and not overpriced. But the best part? The grilled cheese lineup! There's like a dozen different kinds, from classic to creative, and they're all melty perfection. It's just one of those places that feels cozy and easy to love -- great food, friendly folks, and a perfect downtown spot to relax. read more

When my cousin and I heard that Mingle + Graze now offered dinner, we knew we had to try it! My cousin has never tried Mingle + Graze, but after seeing the cheese board I had when I came a couple months back she had on her radar to try. Especially excited since they have multiple vegetarian items with the menu denoting which ones are - always a plus in my book! When you enter, you will notice a small intimate patio with cozy seating inside as the building is long and slender. This type of intimate setting makes you feel close to both who you are dining with, and the amazing staff/owners of Mingle + Graze. We were delighted to be able to talk with both Mahfam and Cristobal, and even had a wine suggestion of what would pair with the Eggplant "Steak" for me. The Normadica Sparkling Rosé was delightful and I love the freshness the canned wine has to offer. Mahfam had talked about it, and it was freshness you could immediately taste! Love the choice of glassware for it as well! When the food arrived, I was absolutely amazed at the presentation of both our dishes. I ordered the Eggplant "Steak" that Mahfam so graciously explained. All the elements complimented one another, and I was amazed how amazing the eggplant tasted and even had a texture similar to a steak. My cousin ordered the chopped salad that was just as beautifully plated with all the ingredients crisp and garden-fresh. Both of us were truly impressed with the quality, and easily said we would be back even if it's 17 miles each way from my house. Well worth the drive! Lastly, we purchased some cheese to take home and I'll thrilled to report their Brie is fabulous! I'm always looking for a good triple cream Brie that's perfectly spreadable on crackers and I've found it! And if you need wine to pear with those cheeses, the owners just opened Spin the Bottle which is in the same general area. A perfect duo for those who love wine + cheese! read more

Stopped in for some takeout on Thursday evening to grab some sandwiches! I'm a little bummed we won't be able to get sandwiches for dinner anymore, since our work schedules prohibit us from coming in for lunch, but we are excited to try the new dinner menu!!! This was my first experience with takeout at M+G, and I would just like to say that the customer service is always *chefs kiss*. I was even offered water to go, as I had (very obviously lol) just come from the gym. When I got home, I saw how well-packed our order was. We got two sandwiches: the San Marcos Rocket (my fave) and the Phils #1 Sub (my husband's favorite). Highly recommend! They sandwiches were prepared fresh and with great care. I ordered a side salad with mine, and the house dressing is amazing!!! If you've read my previous reviews and still haven't been, what are you waiting for!? read more

This place is great gem, great quality and taste. Very genuine and they don't over salt everything including their French onion soup.

Mingle + Graze is in the heart of downtown Chandler. Even though I just recently moved out of the Chandler area, I was able to stop in at this local shop not too long ago. Mingle + Graze is a cheese bar and kitchen that features a curated selection of locally sourced cheeses and charcuterie. A couple started this place in 2019. Cheese is my favorite food and I was salivating over the display case that was stocked with a variety of cheeses. Mingle + Graze may be a small establishment, but it has a lot of charm to it. The smaller setting provides a more intimate atmosphere to enjoy your meal. I once attended an event catered by them that had samples of their sandwiches. I have also been to their shop to order some cheese. While here, I tried the Monger's charcuterie board, the big salad, some bruschetta and sangria. Everything I have had here has been delicious and is made and put together in-house. I highly recommend the grilled cheese and house olives. $25 bottle and board night is on Wednesdays and happy hour is Tues-Friday in the late afternoon. Saturdays offers sangrias for $8. Mingle + Graze is a great local business to support. read more

What a lovely dining spot with amazing food and service! My sister and I enjoyed a wonderful lunch here recently. We were greeted warmly by the owner and had amazing service from Shelby - who put together our amazing charcuterie board. We'll definitely be back! read more

We had dinner at a nearby restaurant and were just walking around and we found this little hidden gem. we walked in and we're greeted kindly and we're allowed to see ourselves. It was the cutest. I really enjoyed the cozy environment here.. we ended up not eating, but we just ended up getting cocktails. It was very close to closing when we arrived. The drinks that we had were good, the owner was there that night and she made recommendations based on our individual taste and we were not disappointed. Would definitely return here. read more

Had a girls day/night last Saturday so I stopped in to grab some cheese. I tried some of their cheese a few months ago during the Yelp event back in March and loved everything! I came for the blood orange cheese but unfortunately, they were out. Cristobal, one of the owners, was in at the time and recommended another cheese which had caramelized onions in it. I ended up purchasing the recommended cheese and the Port wine derby cheese that I had tried back in March. Total was $11.56. I loved both! I forgot to snap a pic of the two cheeses alone so here are screenshots of them from a video I took. I will have to come back for that blood orange another time! read more

Such a cute and intimate place to enjoy some wine and food with friends. They're located in downtown Chandler. I made a reservation for six of us a couple weeks in advance for a Saturday night. Although they're on the smaller side, they were able to accommodate us nicely. Our waitress, who I also assume is the owner, was friendly, attentive and gave great suggestions. I'm not drinking at the moment, but look forward to coming back and sampling some of their cocktails and wine. For dinner I ordered their Elote soup, it had a little kick, not too spicy, and was simply delicious. I also had their shef salad, which was hearty and fresh. Definitely a spot I plan to visit again. read more

Very nice people work and run this place. Nice ambience and yummy grilled cheese and tomato soup. Perfect for a rainy day!! A tad expensive for this simple dish but everything is expensive these days so I don't hold it against them! It's just the way it is!! Definitely recommend. read more

I love a good cheese shop. We split a board and I also had a barrio sandwich. Charging extra for consume is a little lame. And the 'chef's choice' for cheese on the cheese board... gouda is a pretty pedestrian choice. At least let people pick what they get. read more

Service was great! The shop is quaint and comfy. I got the All the Graze board to go. Everything was delicious!

Stopped in for lunch and was very impressed! Service was quick so perfect to stop in during lunch during the week. The employees were friendly and checked up on us often enough. I had the lunch combo which included half a sandwich and soup or salad. I got the Phil's #1 sub which was delicious and the soup of the day which was a creamy potato soup. I really enjoyed both items and was very happy with the price for the portions. Overall would definitely be back to try out some of their other items! read more

Cutest little shop in downtown chandler. I stopped in here for lunch the other day after wanting to try it for awhile. It did not disappoint. The woman at the counter was super friendly. Great lunch specials with combos of soup/salad and half a sandwich. I did half of the Phil's #1 sub and the Parmesan potato soup. The sandwich was delightful and full of flavor. The soup grew on me. I can't wait to go back and try a board sometime. read more

Downtown Chandler, tucked amongst western gear, bar/grills and art is where you'll find this quaint little place. The music and vibe were nice. On Saturdays they serve a Sangria made in-house. I sat there and watched as young and old came in and out. Some for sandwiches, some cheeses and wines, others for the full charcuterie board experience. I ordered a small charcuterie box to go. I made it home, the box did not. If you are in the area, hungry and unsure of what you want, give them a try. read more

We got the grilled cheese experience ($20) and the cheese experience ($34) to share between the 3 of us. Expensive for the amount of food served, the board is underwhelming, the cheese slices are very small, the sausage is sliced very thinly, you can't even taste the flavor, the grapes were sliced in half, teaspoon or less of the jams, I've seen restaurants and bars serve better and a lot lot more. Their place is pretty quiet if you really need to hear each other talk, that's a plus, maybe try their other stuff on the menu. read more

I've had M+G make up about six or more boards over the last couple years and have never been more thrilled to show up at events with one of their boards. Great selection all hand picked for me makes life easy. Nice shop and they do a great job with even short notice. I guess I should go back soon to try more than just their charcuterie. Everything looks incredibly tasty! Cute shop. Might be a good place for a date as it's not crazy loud. Highly recommend read more

Our family of eight absolutely enjoyed mingling & grazing at this community-driven, by-design, welcoming, bistro of craft-made cheeses, deli & libations. As we enjoyed our individual & collective array of nosh, we were treated to live music while sitting on the built-out sidewalk patio - too charming. The menu has a creative variety of CharcuterieBoards, Aged Cheeses, Sandwiches, Salads, Soups & Kid's Menu. M&G offers "Wine Wednesdays" a combination of the Mongers Board & a bottle of Wine for $25. Happy Hour is on Thursdays. They are closed on Sundays & Mondays. Sharing of the Nosh: House Olives, Build Your Own, Hummus, Mongers, Young & Reckless Boards, Beef Tacos (3) & a Sonoran Salad graced our table & was politely devoured smorgasbord style. After enjoying two different types of can wines, I bought two more for my collection. There is fun/humorous decor & displays throughout. Fantastic prices for both food & drinks. The employees dished out wonderful customer service non-stop while serving delicious provisions for all to enjoy. I highly recommend Mingle & Graze for any occasion as the service, food & atmosphere are spot on. My second stop upon returning to AZ. read more

A great little eatery. You order at the counter and they bring you your food and drinks. My wife and I have eaten here a few times and just had lunch here again today. I usually get the chicken salad wrap (I'm a creature of habit when it comes to finding something I like) but I went with their lunch combo special and had a roast beef sandwich and a Persian salad. My wife had a French onion grilled cheese sandwich and the same salad. Honestly, some of the best roast beef on a sandwich I have ever had. We have another restaurant we like where my wife gets a similar grilled cheese sandwich and she said this one blew it away. The salad and dressing were delicious. Everything tastes so fresh and the staff is very friendly. A cozy place, nice atmosphere and great food that is very reasonably priced for the high quality you get. read more

Really liked this little sandwich shop!! Love the idea of making your own charcuterie board! We didn't get this, but I would definitely go back and try! Got the roast beef sandwich with harvarti, pickled onions, and horseradish aioli. So good! 5 stars. The bread came warm - awesome The side star was the salad with the house dressing - the house dressing was DELICIOUS. Definitely would love to come back read more

The service was excellent and we are retirees who appreciated the staff's patience and knowledge of their products. We had their $12 cheese board, which proved to be and excellent choice. Everything on our board was perfect and much of it locally sourced. The board included a sliced strawberry, the likes of which I haven't had since southern France (the farming area). The owner checked in with us and said he tries to buy local as much as possible, and it shows. One last tip: Mingle and Graze has a 3-table patio, perfect for people watching. read more

Due to Covid, it was hard for us to totally Mingle+Graze here so we opted to Socially Distance+Gobble. This gobbling included a delicious chicken salad wrap with potato salad. This little shop also offers local products such as Cider Corps ciders and desserts from Pastry Unicorn (Love the name!). The wrap is probably the best I've had that I can remember. The seasonings in the salad were perfect, with a lovely balance of creamy, tangy and sweet flavors. The chicken was tender and I loved the unique ingredients in it such as barberries and pistachio. The potato salad was also a tasty concoction, filled with creamy potatoes and deep red beets. Service was excellent and very friendly. As for Covid precautions, there is very limited seating inside but plenty of seating outside. In addition to two tables right outside the shop there's a large outdoor patio area with a lot of tables. All the staff were masked up. Grazie to Mingle+Graze for the gracious service and good food! read more

Covid days. Staff wearing masks. Small establishment and 2 outdoor tables. Last minute to go order for a roast beef sandwich (San tan rocket) that called for 30 min wait time after 2:15pm.
