Honestly, I would give this quaint little place 10 stars if I could! The place is soo cute, the owners & staff are friendly but their food is phenomenal! They truly take pride in EVERYTHING they make!! Today we ordered to go so by the time we got home we both had half sandwich left and I tried not to finish my tea so I can take a good pic! Everything is fresh, breads are delish and bacon was crispy! I got a simple BLT and it's the best I've ever had! My hubby always LOVES their Italian Lover on a sub roll! SO good!! All their beverages are amazing!! If you need a mid-day pick me up, order the "Blue Dasher Energy", great flavors and gives you energy without the shakes! Today I had my second "Palm Beach Handshaken Tea", my new FAV!! My hubby also raves about their iced Caramel Macchiato. No matter what you order, you will not be disappointed! I highly recommend this cafe! read more

I've eaten here before and the salads are the best! I wouldn't get the breakfast eggs again (called a 'scramble' I think), as the eggs tasted like they'd been put in the microwave..def not the best. But I'd go back again anytime for a salad or other items. Friendly staff here :) read more

This location was across from the hotel i was staying in. I got the build your own sandwich. You walk in and order inside at the front or can order ahead. If you need help ordering on the tablet the employees were helpful. Sandwich came out fast and it was all really good - i ordered turkey and veggies of my choice on a croissant. My boss ordered a sandwich with chipotle mayo and she said it was also very good. We sat inside but there was outdoor seating also and plenty of covered and uncovered parking. Inside was super clean and had all extras you would Wish we had one closer to Ft Worth. read more

I'm struggling to come up with words to explain just how tasty this place is! The tuna sandwich & lemonade 1 got is made in house, you can't beat that! They were in their slow hours so the gentlemen behind the counter placed my order for me on the tablet which I appreciated. The store is small & gives off a modern Mom & Popshop feel, comfortable. read more

It's a bit confusing to locate. It's in the middle of a large parking area surrounded by office buildings. When we got there for lunch, it wasn't busy at all but it got busier around noon. We shared a Queen Club and their Italian. As a meal with chips and a small drink, our bill was over $24. Both sandwiches were good but the Queen Club was the better one. Lots of meat and easy to eat. The Italian was a little disappointing. We were expecting it to be warm. That's probably part our fault for not asking. It was nicely dressed but even the bun was cold. The staff were friendly and the place was very clean. read more

I started a new job in the area recently and of course, it's always important to find the best places to grab lunch and/or breakfast. So far, Lunch Lounge is the only place I've tried, but with the way it's going, I may not need any place else. I've tried breakfast just once so far, but definitely plan on doing that again. I went with the Big Toasty and it was right up there as one of the best breakfast sandwiches I've ever had. As for lunch, Wednesday is now my favorite day. It's the only day they have their chicken salad, which I have completely fallen in love with. I get it on the sourdough, but you could also get it in a salad. The sourdough is so fresh and delicious that I'm pretty sure that's how I'll always be getting it. I did also try the Hot Roast Beef Press, which was good, but I prefer my roast beef in cold sandwiches. There are definitely a number of other things on the menu that I want to try. I just have to go in a day other than Wednesday since I have no intention of passing on the chicken salad. Oh, and they use Boar's Head which is always the sign of a great sandwich. If you're in the neighborhood, you should make sure to stop in for breakfast or lunch...or even both. I won't judge. In fact, I'll applaud your smart decision making. read more

First time in Arizona. This was about two blocks from our hotel and the food here was worth the walk in the heat. I got the Southwest Chipotle Panini. Hands down the best thing I have had during our stay here. We came back two days in a row because it was so good. The service was quick! The staff was incredibly nice. You order on a tablet which made things move quickly. It wasn't too busy either of the days we visited. It's a bit on the smaller size but it was cute and clean! There is a restroom as well. Highly recommend! read more

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 has Sliced 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 ! read more

Quality option next to the Hampton Inn. We stopped in around 11am to grab a lunch to take to the airport before our flight home. The staff was very friendly and instantly greeted us when we walked in and there wasn't a line. We were unfortunately told that there would be a 20min wait for anything with chicken. I ordered the King of Clubs Sandwich and made it a meal with chips and a drink. The sandwich was ready in less than 5 minutes and I was out the door. The sandwich was large but I was surprised that the bread wasn't toasted. I guess I assumed clubs were always on toasted bread but I may be wrong. Everything seemed very fresh which was refreshing for a quick sandwich shop. Overall, this was a great lunch stop for us! I'd recommend trying them if you are in the area, especially walking over from the hotel. read more

Okay I have to start off by saying I don't like deli restaurants that are located in the same places as corporate businesses. The food hasn't been good and I'm usually just desperate to not reach a state of hangry. I also need time to relax and it doesn't 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 you're around the area, pop on in. You won't be disappointed. read more

At first, no big deal, but when I went to go the person who took my order, she said "no, you ordered the caesar" (so she misheard me and then corrected me about my own order), asked if I wanted them to just put bacon on it, and then the person making the order said, "I'll just make a new one". What kind of customer service/attitude is that??? It's not my fault someone misheard me. I don't know if I'll be back here or not. Everybody has bad days, but jeeze. read more

A Hidden Gem. Today, we went to the Lunch Lounge for a quick bite to eat, and it was absolutely delicious. I've had many sandwiches from all over the valley and the folks at Lunch Lounge are doing up sandwichs right. We really enjoyed our first visit to Lunch Lounge. The menu has plenty of options, fillled with high quality meats, for the meat-eaters and a large selection of vegetarian & vegan options, if meat isn't your thing When it comes to sandwiches, you really can't go wrong with ordering the Lunch Lounge's "Grilled Stromboli Sub". There's something about that combination of, Ham, Genoa Salami, Pepperoni, Melted White American Cheese, Cherry Peppers and Basil Pesto on a Sub Roll, all mixed together that makes a heavenly combination. That's exactly what you'll get at this shop. If you're looking for a great sandwich, and her reasonable price, with the best customer service, stop by the lunch Lounge you won't be disappointed. . read more

The pools are amazing and the breakfast brunch is one of the best brunches.. I would like to shout out an employee. His name is John J. and works in room service. He always goes over and beyond anytime we are there and always makes our trips so much better. I would highly recommend this hotel and the employees make it that much better

First off i just want to say that the staff here at this hotel are all absolutely amazing and…read morefriendly from check in to check out. My husband i stayed here for two nights as a staycation for his birthday and we needed it to reset and recharge. we've visited this property in the past and they are always so helpful and it's easy to get around, albeit the hilly parking might make those prone to anxiety a little wary. but overall, this was a great time away from our home. The reason i'm updating my review to three stars is because there is absolutely no enforcement of the 21+ rule at the adult pool. While taking a night swim on our last night, we witnessed two teenagers openly fighting and throwing f bombs at a guest who was trying to ask them to not leave their little sister alone in the pool while they cared more about their stupid tik tok dance. Parents and staff absolutely nowhere to be seen. This happened at 8:30 pm and the guest managed to hold his own against two spoiled brats. Please, Hilton, in order for your adult guests to try and have some peace and quiet away from spoiled brats, ENFORCE THE AGE LIMIT AT THE ADULT POOLS.

Like other Courtyards, they have a Starbucks and a full bar in the lobby. There is a nice courtyard and pool area where I hung out reading on a beautiful morning. They also have a silent auction happening in the lobby with some interesting memorabilia available. I do wish they would update their fitness center. On the plus side, they have enough aerobic equipment to satisfy all. Their weight rack is missing quite a few weights. I do remember a manager at another Courtyard property telling me that guests steal the dumbbells. Nice/not! Overall, a good experience at this property.

Lucis at the orchard really is a precious place!…read more You enter and order at the front. Usually there is a line. The menu is big and has a variety you can get lunch or breakfast. We often go for lunch! We have gotten a mixture of the menu ! The drinks are so fresh! We love them!! The seasonal coffee or juices are delicious! Highly recommend those! I personally love their breakfast foods more than their lunch options. They have alot of flavors with their foods! Delicious and consistent. I'm not sure how fresh they are. Sometimes they are fresh but then other times they do not taste so fresh. They have plenty of parking and accessible parking with ramps. The environment can be loud depending on which day you go. The weekends tend to get packed and there is a line often during weekends. I'd say Lucis is family friendly. Be sure to keep an eye out on them. No running inside the building.

If you're looking for delicious food and exceptional customer service, look no further than The Lunch Lounge! I've had the pleasure of enjoying their tuna melt before, and it's always been a favorite of mine. Recently, I tried their Cobb salad, and I have to say, it was absolutely incredible - so incredible, in fact, that I'll definitely be ordering it again! The Lunch Lounge is truly a hidden gem - I feel lucky that it's close to my work. I only wish it were open later, but I certainly understand. My team and I always make a stop there for breakfast and coffee, and we're never disappointed. I highly recommend The Lunch Lounge over Panera Bread across the street - the food is far better, and the customer service is second to none. If you're on the hunt for something delicious for breakfast or lunch, you can't go wrong with The Lunch Lounge! And the prices won't break your wallet!! read more

What an amazing place! was on my way out of town, heading to the airport & checked yelp to see what was around. I just really wanted to grab a quick bit and catch my holiday flight out. Went into the lunch lounge, meet a great guy named Tee, who you could tell was really into his job, or maybe he was the owner, I really don't know but he made me an amazing sandwhich..."The Italian Lover" & WoW! it was very fresh, he did up sell me into a meal deal w/a pasta salad, but it was all good. I think it was a pesto pasta, a perfect pairing w/the Italian lover. They were very fast and friendly, even though it was in the middle of their lunch rush. Very clean place, Thanks Tee! I don't know what their hours are, but I know I'll be going back for lunch soon. read more

Ill get to the food in a minute, but first a little about what you…read moresupport when you eat here, order from here or cater with them Are you familiar with UMOM New Day Centers? Heres some info: "Our programs are built around a simple formula: jobs + housing = ending homelessness. We work hand-in-hand with every person we serve to solve that formula alongside them. From emergency shelter to affordable housing, UMOM offers a full slate of vital services, rooted in a foundation of trust and proactive support. The issue is unmistakable. The numbers say that across America, more and more people are sleeping on the streets. But we don't need numbers to tell us what we see in our neighborhoods every day. It's not just folks who suffer from severe mental illnesses or addictions, or who choose to drift from place to place. Now more than ever before, it's everyday families who have fallen on hard times. Incomes have fallen, housing prices are up, and getting help is a bureaucratic nightmare. Whether it's because of lost income, lack of education, addictions, or something else entirely, we believe every family deserves a chance to rebuild their lives." https://www.umom.org/ Now about the Cafe, which serves great food, Starbucks drinks, and yummy desserts. Their sales are revenue for the UMOM Centers. They also train residents from the UMOM Centers to prepare them for future employment opportunities. "Delicious Food with a Purpose Located on the UMOM Campus, Helpings Café and Catering offers food with a purpose. The menu includes specialty coffee, freshly baked pastries, and delicious breakfast and lunch items prepared in-house by our talented team. More than just a café, Helpings is a social enterprise and subsidiary of UMOM New Day Centers. Every purchase goes right back into our programs and services to help UMOM clients find jobs and an affordable place to live." Now, for my experience, I was done attending a volunteering class at the main shelter and needed a mid-afternoon pick me up. I looked up places to eat by my location and this was 2 mins away and something I've never tried before, SCORE! The entrance is on the side of the main entrance to this community I knew nothing about. I was there close to their closing time so I lucked out with being able to chat with the manager as my order was being prepared. At 100 degrees outside I had an Iced Tea and Lemon Poppyseed Muffin. Yum! Muffin was moist, flavorful not overpowered by one flavor but well balanced and it was a Starbucks Iced Tea, I now carry a lemon juice bottle with me as I love lemon in my tea with my Stevia packets. I was refreshed. Next time im meeting with my friends were having lunch here. I was amazed by how this place operated and how much good they do for the community. Please support!
