Breadcrafters Bakery & Cafe

First time we went, we loved our breakfast sandwiches. We couldn’t wait to go back. Just went today. Not super busy when we got there. It’s a beautiful Sunday morning. Walk in. They are out of breakfast menus and the kid behind the counter said he doesn’t know the menu and can’t help until the owner gets back from printing the menu. They are also out of coffee but he assured us he’s making some. He over charges us for our meal and then helps the other customers before refunding us. Now the coffee is ready and it comes out a light shade of pale. Send that back. Waiting entirely too long now for our food and was told everything is made to order. Well it’s bacon and eggs so I would hope so. Asked for a refund. Owner passive aggressively tells us to have a blessed and wonderful day and we left. Great concept. Bread is amazing but they really need to get their act together Won’t be back on a Sunday again that’s for sure.

I’ve been a long time fan, even worked here in Highschool (14 years ago.) Not a lot has changed which to me, is great. All Bakery Goods are baked fresh nightly. The great morning muffin is the best in the world. I love the sandwiches and especially the Chicken Salad sandwich and the Twisted Turkey.
All of the side options have been created fresh and all options are amazing.
I’m not huge on customer service as much as other people reviewing BC are. Bottom line for me is that the food tastes fantastic and the product is made with love. I feel far too often we treat establishments as though they owe us something. This isn’t McDonald’s so I’d take those customer service reviews and shove them you know where. The place isn’t made to be busy so don’t go on prime lunch times or you aren’t going to get all the attention some of you require.
Love this place, will always love this place.

I just love it so much! I can’t believe I’ve never ‘yelped’ it before. I love the salads, and my favorite is the one with spicy chicken, avocado, hard boiled egg, and spicy ranch. There is so much more on that southwest salad, and trust me, you’ll like it. I love the chicken salad on raisin walnut bread. I almost always order that with a side of delicious potato salad. I can’t ever resist the pumpkin golden raisin cookie. Lovelovelove!

We just went to this breakfast/​lunch place this afternoon. It is really good, and it always has been. I love getting a plain turkey sandwich and it is always amazing! They have many types of sandwiches from a breakfast egg sandwich to a turkey sandwich. I recommend this place.

I used to eat here all the time a few years ago because my mom used to work at the daycare next to the restaurant. For some reason I stopped coming but I recently came back and had the creamy wild rice and chicken soup along with a raspberry lemon bar and IT WAS DELICIOUS!!! Especially the lemon bar, it was soft and it wasn’t too sour. I will definitely come back to eat here!

They will never have what you want so why waste your time going here. They ALWAYS run out of main ingredients. I have gone 3 times with high hopes that management could figure out how to order but 3 out of 3 they proved their incompetence to manage… it’s too bad considering their food looks and smells delecious…

Finally tried the breakfast here and it was amazing. Great house made chorizo in their burrito and the sandwiches are served on the house made breads. Always friendly folks working behind the counter.

I wanted to try something new for lunch and saw on my Unilocal mobile app that this place had pretty decent ratings. It’s not a big place, but you can sit inside for lunch if you want to. I didn’t really know what I wanted to try, so I went with what looked someone familiar to me. They had an arugula salad that was pretty similar to the Cowboy Ciao Stetson salad. Perhaps that just wasn’t the best choice. The stetson salad is my favorite salad, so I think my expectations were too high. It just didn’t compare. It was also kind of expense for the size of the salad. I’m not sure I would try then again.

Great, cozy feel inside. Amazing food (considering we are talking soups, salads, and sandwiches), and BAKED GOODS are food comas waiting to happen. Even their music selection is eclectic. Family run, it seems, and certainly somewhere I will come to again and again!

Stopped into Breadcrafters for a quick lunch on a Saturday. They were moderately busy but not packed. Looking at the prices I assumed the sandwiches would be quite large and I was right. My boyfriend and I split one and for a light lunch the size was just right.
We split the club with a side of pasta salad. The bread was fresh and soft and the ingredients were plentiful and fresh tasting as well. While the sandwich was big, the side was not — even for a single serving. I felt like they kinda skimped a little on the pasta. But what was there had a good flavor — a pesto sauce of some kind I think — with olives, red peppers and mushrooms.
We sat outside, the patio was nice and relaxing.
Overall I’d say it was good but I wasn’t blown away. I’d like to go back and try a different sandwich and side to see how it compares.

I found this place on Unilocal,visiting phoenix for the day. I loved the green chili turkey sandwich. The five girls I was with all enjoyed their meals, 3 got salads which looked amazing. I felt the deserts needed a little something more (sugar?), we had a blueberry tart thing, and cream puff looking thing. The covered patio was enjoyable with greenery other attention to detail.

100+ 4 star reviews? We must have had a REALLY off day. Double meat please: well we certainly didn’t get more meat and what we got looked like it had been through a Star Trek transporter malfunction. The bread was actually good. The three slices of cheese that we got were good. However, we packed up the meat and mixed it in with food for the Westies. They loved it, BTW. Why is it so difficult to get a good sandwich in Phoenix?

Perfectly made French Dip, the beef, baguette and au jous, were perfect. I have ordered this twice from Breadcrafters and each time was exceptional. Fresh pastry selections are amazing. I tried the Crème brûlée with blue berries and it met all my expectations.
Nice to have a local business that offers a wide variety of deli items, freshly made bread, yummy desserts and to top it off, a pet friendly patio!

I was in the area and wanted something non-​chain and not a sit down restaurant. Bread crafters is tiny (doesn’t even have a public restroom) but very cutely decorated. The guy behind the counter was very helpful on my first visit and even had a chance to sample the soup of the day. The lunch special was good and I liked the soup bowls. I didn’t try a pastry but noticed lots of goodies. I’m glad I stopped here!

First time here, and I tried the spicy Santa Fe breakfast burrito. The place is clean and they’ve made it almost possible to forget it’s in a strip mall, which is great. Service was friendly and quick. The food was fresh and very good. I was a bit surprised to have to pay over $ 10 for a breakfast burrito, but it was one of the better ones I’ve had, with interesting touches like fresh spinach, homemade chorizo, sautéed mushrooms and quality bacon. Plus it was huge. Could easily split it with someone, which would make the price totally justifiable.
WiFi was abysmal — I usually rely on a quick wifi jolt when I’m looking for stops like this during my workday so to me that’s significant, but for most people that’s a non-​issue.
Lunch menu looks very promising with lots of interesting combinations.

Wow, I had a half an egg salad sandwich and a bowl of the creamy chicken with rice soup. Their egg salad didn’t have celery, so they diced some up and added it to my sandwich for me, how great! Both the soup and sandwich were absolutely fantastic, I WILL be back!

This was a very good sandwich from all the quality ingredients to the construction of the sandwich itself. I had seen this place driving through PV and it looks like a big place, but the patio is bigger than the inside actually, which is not a great thing in the summer. You just order at the counter and there isn’t a bunch a room to wait for the to-​go order, so you will be shuffling around avoiding people waiting for your order. My sandwich was served on Raisin Pecan cranberry bread I believe and it was a unique combo of cream cheese and cranberry sauce and high quality turkey and lettuce and tomato. You must try the potato salad as the side dish also. It was nearly a perfect sandwich and it was about 10 bucks. A winner and they also had some unique cookies to try next time (cornflake).

From the outside this looks like an average sandwich shop, but when you enter it’s an adorable little café. They are making delicious sandwiches, amazing looking salads, espresso drinks, and have some great baked goods, as well.
We got cappuccinos — which were okay, but honestly, we were just excited they had espresso!
For lunch I tried the reuben and I am glad I did. It was delicious. The meat was tender and juicy. It was very good. I just wish the sauerkraut had been a little stronger — but that’s not a deal breaker.
My friend had the roast beef. The meat was a tad on the dry side (the reason I gave the place 4 starts instead of 5), but tasted pretty good. It had a unique southwestern spin.
Don’t pass up trying this place.

You threw my sandwich away… my sandwich… MY SANDWICH!
My friends always tease me when we are searching for a good sandwich shop. I have been told on more then one occassion that I can be little «Ross» or «Joey» like from the show «Friends» when it comes to my sandwiches.
Today, we went to Breadcrafters Bakery and Café for lunch, and it was absolutely delicious. I’ve had many sandwiches from all over the valley and the folks at Breadcrafters Bakery and Café are doing up sandwiches right. Lookout, AJ’s Whole Foods, Jimmy Johns, Quiznos, Capriottis, and all the others; Breadcrafters Bakery and Café is here.
Breadcrafters offers great lunch specials. You can get a sandwich and your choice of potato salad, pasta salad, fruit salad, or chips. Today, my lunch companion and I had the tuna salad on sourdough and the Focaccia Deluxe (turkey, ham, salami, provolone, lettuce, tomatoes, Parmesan pesto, on Italian herb bread) with a side of potato salad and fruit salad. I have to admit the Parmesean Pesto spread was fantastic and the potato salad is the best I ever had.
All the breads at Breadcrafters Bakery and Café are made fresh daily. The Walnut Pecan Raisin, Swiss & Black Pepper, look delicious. I can’t wait to try them all on my next visit.
If your in the area give Breadcrafters a try. Expect great sandwiches, salads, soups, desserts, and the best customer service.

Nice and cozy atmosphere with indoor and outdoor seating. The staff is very nice and welcoming. Though they may be in the middle of making something for another person, they are good about acknowledging you are here.
The pastries are excellent, and they are huge. You definitely get your money’s worth. I had the turkey and avocado sandwich which was very good. They serve breakfast, soups, salads and sandwiches.
