    This place is the sort of trendy, locally sourced, free range crunchy paradise that just begs you, dares you to hate it. You look at the ridiculously bubbly show off at the counter effortlessly tossing the most delicious looking salad you've ever seen (seriously, I'm not even a salad guy) while taking your order and apparently running the whole show, and you consider punching him... except that he stands between you and sandwich paradise, so you play his game like he's the upbeat cousin of the Soup Nazi. Then you get to the soup, and are tempted to eat it straight from the serving pot. But you can't. Not allowed. Rules are stupid. So you sit, with your soup and sandwich, and you black out over the next several minutes, and then you look down and your food is gone and you are ludicrously satisfied, forgetting how much you hate these people. And this makes you wonder... Could all the world's issues be solved by a Soup and Sandwich? Would we all love each other more if we were bound together by the bonds of Chicken Enchilada Chili? Perhaps, my friends. Perhaps.

    It's my first time here. Food is good...although the employees are so rude they all huddle into a circle and talk openly about the customers ( as if we are all deaf ) HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE The only time they are nice/acknowledge you and give you a smile is when you are leaving.

    I normally don't like chain restaurants that serve glamorized fast food (Panera, etc), and I nearly dismissed Cafe Zupas as the same. That would have been a mistake. Everything here screams "FRESH!" The clam chowder had fresh chunks of potato and veggies. The clam was real clam, not processed cubes of clam product. The salad was mixed fresh by hand right in front of me, the baguette slice was a nice touch and the chocolate-covered strawberry was a classy treat. Also, I was skeptical about cinnamon anything on my berry salad. Try it. Delicious.

    Love this place! It's Saturday, and the queue was long - took 20 mins before I sat with my food. Today they weren't keeping up very well with clearing tables. I saw people clearing the table so they could sit... Napkin dispenser was nearly empty, too. Today I ordered the large Glazed Chicken Chipotle Salad, which was very good! But here's the thing. The large is $2 more than the half. For the most part, the only difference is more greens. With few exceptions, the toppings are the same amount for half or large. The half seems to be the better value!

    First off I received a postcard mail for this new place. 50% off your entire dine-in meal. What a great deal! And if you make it to the first 50 customers for certain days then you get a $10 gift card. Too bad I wasn't one of those first 50. When you walk through the doors a worker greeted each person and provided a menu. The menu is nicely done with pictures of each item, with descriptions and prices. It also shows available house-made sauces, house-made dressings and spice blends. Everything looked so appetizing! The decor was a fresh look of lime green and deep red. Tables and booths are plentiful. Since I love variety I went for the 2 combo which is regularly $8.79 for a choice of 2 items: whole sandwich, half soup, or half salad. It comes with bread and a chocolate dipped strawberry!!! Wow! That is a very nice complement to a meal and a rare complement for any meal that I've seen! This deserves a major star!! For the kiddos (10 years and younger) they also get a combo deal for a 2-choice of baked chicken strips, fruit cup, grilled cheese or small soup for $3.99. They even get a choice of bread or a chocolate dipped strawberry and small drink!! You lucky kids!! If you're not into the combo deals you can always get whole sandwich, salad or soup for $5.49, $7.59 and $6.39 respectively. And halves of salad and soup for $5.59 and $4.39 respectively. And the great part is that you'll receive the fresh french baguette and the chocolate dipped strawberry! There were at least 15 people ahead of us but Cafe Zupas did a phenomenal job in efficiently handling the line quickly! Probably took 7 minutes-ish. At the end of the line before you get to the register to pay they have a nice display of some desserts!! More deliciousness to add to the meal. This time around I passed on it but I foresee me getting one next time. I ordered the combo of pesto chicken sandwich and the roasted red pepper and lobster soup. Pesto chicken: had sliced almonds, roasted red peppers, muenster cheese, tomato and sprouts. This was a new kind of pesto sandwich for me because of the almonds. For me it was a bit too much almonds. Maybe it wasn't spread out evenly. The size of the sandwich was a bit smaller than most places hence the whole sandwich. Roasted red pepper soup: "Rich and savory" it actually had real lobster meat! Yum! This had a little bit too much saltiness for my taste buds. If you're the type that seasons your dish with loads of salt or soy sauce then you might be okay with it. I dipped the bread to tone down the saltiness. The chocolate dipped strawberry ended my meal with a sweet note. The variety of the foods and the price points were pretty decent. I really enjoyed the complementary choc dipped strawberry. And the service for the grand opening days were pleasant.

    No real difference in the menu or interior of this Cafe Zupas from the one in Dana Park, but I do appreciate that the drink section is more intuitive (The straws and lids are on the farther side of the drink fountain from the cash register so there is better flow from leaving the counter, getting your drink, then getting your straw and lid). Is it healthy? Well, I suppose it's healthier than eating a burger, but do you notice that every salad has some sort of sugary dressing on it? Also, while the soups are tasty, most of them taste like they have a fair amount of cream in them. You can easily get full here from anything you order, whether it is a soup, salad, sandwich, or combination of the two. The added chocolate dipped strawberry is a nice touch, and although the dining area was busy, there wasn't an issue finding anywhere to sit. Service was great, and everyone here greeted me with a friendly smile.

    Ordered the Cuban Pulled Pork sandwich with the wild mushroom soup. Both were deliciously tasty and even got a chocolate dipped strawberry to boot. Food feels fresher than Paradise Bakery but the lines are kind of crazy at lunch. I was also not thrilled with the portion size compared with the price. Seemed a bit more expensive than I thought other places were for the food. All in all it was a great experience and will definitely return but maybe slightly earlier to beat the lunch crowd.

    Cafe Zupa is a perfect lunch or dinner spot when you want something relatively healthy, quick and fresh. The menu has many options for meat eaters and non meat eaters alike! The inside is very clean and modern looking. You order at the counter in a style similar to paradise bakery but Zupa far exceeds that. The salad options all sound delicious and I personally favor the berry citrus. The soups and sandwiches are also really good and there are plenty or options there. One of the highlights is that each meal comes with a chocolate covered strawberry for free!

  • Pam P.

    They're food is so fresh it's like it walked out of the garden and onto your plate!! Combo meals are the best way to sample two things at once. The soups are fantastic and served at eating temperature. I love that. Lobster Bisque is to die for. The drink station is unique as well. If you are familiar with Cafe Zupas you won't be disappointed and if you've never been to one before, get your hinny in here! Just came for the second time. Ok having the same thing. LOL What can I say that lobster bisque was to die for!!!!

    I was really impressed when I went here the first time, got my order ready before I reached the register and it was divine. I can recommend the roasted pepper & lobster !!!

    After previously visiting Cafe Zupas at Dana Park a few times, I was definitely excited to find out there was one closer to home at Chandler mall. Their sandwiches and Salads and deserts are all excellent. I would have given them 5 stars but was very disappointed to find out that they no longer offer my favorite which was the Thai Chicken Sandwich and Salad with the peanut sauce. They totally did away with it. Hopefully they will bring it back.

  • Megan L.

    I love the pick two combo. I had the cauliflower soup with a power salad. The food was all fresh and they prepare it for you as you order. I loved the chocolate dipped strawberry that comes with your meal!! The desserts looked amazing. If I wasn't beyond full I could've had a hard time choosing between them. They were nicely displayed. The staff was also great. The store is new so I figured there may be some kinks but everyone worked together and they were all so friendly. Highly recommend going here!!! It's nice to have a place like this in Chandler!

    Just had lunch at the chandler zupas..it did not disappoint. I love the freshness of their salads. Mangoberry is my favorite, I refuse to try anything else. The sandwiches are great and the really stay on top of keeping the place clean.

    So ok. This place definitely has 5 star potential. But there is one MAJOR concern here...PRICE. Im sorry, but salad is not GOURMET. Its salad. Sure, you can dress it up with roasted corn and herb dressing....its still salad. Same can be said about soup. Even a soup with incredible flavors happening, doesnt really cost that much to produce, especially in large quantities. A half serving of soup here is just under 5.00. WAY too high. Enough complaining. I ordered the Try 2 Combo.. -Cuban sandwich and a half Chicken Chop Salad -I also got a half soup. I ordered the Chicken Tortilla ( Total for order..a little over 16.00) The Cuban was very tasty. The pork was layered thick, and was very tender. The salad was very good as well. I like green leaf lettuce as a salad base, not iceburg, which is primarily water. I enjoyed the herb dressing, and i like how they tossed all the lettuce in the dressing, before adding the rest of the ingredients. the chicken topping tasted like fresh chicken. The tortilla soup was good, as well. I like creamier tortilla soups, as this one was broth based, but it was still really good. If you like a more creamier type tortilla soup, try their Chicken enchilada soup. I got a small sample, and it was very good. The wedge of bread that came with dinner helped with the removal of broth from my bowl. :) And of course, the complimentary chocolate dipped strawberry was juicy, and not over ripe. Overall, not bad. I will most likely come back...but not as often as im sure id like to...but maybe thats not so bad. :) My waistline will thank me.

    It was our first time here and it was very good. I didn't know what to expect and the four stars is really because I'm not a fan of cafeteria style restaurants . I think If there was more of a line there would be a great chance of messing up orders as I've read in other reviews . Fortunately , we were the only ones in line ordering .The kale quinoa salad was delicious . More restaurants should embrace kale . The pesto chicken sandwich was really tasty . My husband had the mushroom soup and California avocado sandwich and really enjoyed it . A nice touch is the little chocolate covered strawberry . The $23 tab was very reasonable . The atmosphere is busy and chaotic so it's not the place to go for a leisurely , mellow dining experience. But for a good lunch made with high quality fresh sourced ingredients , it fits the bill .

  • Michelle M.

    Don't get me wrong, the food is very good but holy crap the service is soooo terrible. It took them 5 times to make my son's sandwich correctly and all he did was ask them to substitute mayo for the honey mustard. They never offered him anything for our inconvenience, we were all done eating by the time his sandwich was made correctly. Ok so I was hoping it was a one time thing but of course I was wrong. Again, this time my husband's food was messed up. Their excuses were just that they were training. And again, they don't care, just say sorry. I so love the cauliflower soup but my family won't go back.

    This place replaced my beloved Greek eating establishment. ( I had one favorite menu item that I will truly miss) I would have never visited had it not been for my sons school receiving a donation of the sales tonight. I like when local businesses do that and we like to participate. So the charity to Aprende middle school got us to enter the building and the food will get us to enter again. Very fresh, healthy, and we both somehow ate for $6. ( with desert...) I had salad and my son had a sandwich and we had a brownie and another fancy desert ( fancy, so I am unsure exactly what it was. Salted brûlée something.. Yum!) I want to go back and try their soup. They had a lot of soup choices and they all looked good. The building looks new and was clean. We took our food to go and actually ate in the hobby lobby parking lot... But hobby lobby is another 5 star review. I love that place too!

    I love Cafe Zupas! I'm so happy we have one in Chandler. I would LOVE a Tempe location too. Everything is great here! The prices are very fair too! The salads and sandwiches are yummy! The cauliflower soup is SO good! Great vegetarian options.

  • Erica M.

    If you are a fan of Paradise Bakery/Panera, you're going to love this place! The menu options are comparable but with better quality ingredients and prices. I spent less than $10 and had more food than my stomach could handle. But it was good, fresh, and light so I sport ate my way through it without hating myself afterwards. I'm not a Panera type restaurant fan, but I would come here again. It's like the Chipotle of the sandwich/salad/soup world.

  • Bill G.

    Totally awesome place. This has definitely replaced Paradise Bakery as our go-to soup/salad/sandwich place. Loads of stellar eats and a super polite staff makes for an easy win. Clean and orderly is good, too. Loads of tasty sandwiches from which to choose? Check. An equivalent bevy of tasty salads? You know it. Scrumptious soups? All day. Decadent deserts? Awww, yeah. I've yet to find something I haven't thoroughly enjoyed and I doubt that you will, either. If there's a negative to be had (at least for me personally), it's that they serve Coke instead of Pepsi. That's all I've got. Seriously. Why are you still sitting there? JUST GO. You won't be disappointed.

  • Bernie W.

    Zupas offers a range of sandwiches, salads and soups and definitely puts Paradise Bakery to shame and is a welcome addition in the fast/casual category. It is located "kitty-corner".... do people still use that phrase? ... across the parking lot from Chipotle the food was quick, fresh and tasty. I had a combo of lobster bisque soup and Cobb salad ($8.95) with a piece of bread and a chocolate dipped strawberry.. Of course one could ask, who serves lobster bisque in the middle of the desert, but they had quite a range of fresh soup. I would say the knock on the bisque is that it was too salty and if I came back I would try the wild mushroom soup instead.

  • Steve W.

    Amazing! Love this place! Great soups, salads, and sandwiches. Soup Nazi-esque soup. Get the pick two combo and try two things at once. Love the clam chowder and enchilada chili. I just wish they would build one at Mesa Riverview or downtown Mesa...

    (5)
  • Tracey K.

    I ordered the soup & salad combo. The clam chowder was super salty and it was difficult to eat. The salad I had was swimming in salad dressing. Gross. I was there with a group of people and they complained of their soup being too salty as well (tortilla soup). The employees were super friendly and helpful though. I doubt I'll be back.

  • Yadira S.

    Mouthwatering deliciousness! I had this a few months ago for one of our company meetings. Mind you I live in Tucson, not Phoenix but I dream of these sandwiches. The Italian Club is perfection and the soups and salads are great! I will continue to return on every trip I make to PHX!

  • Lisa T.

    Very friendly staff,yummy unique soups and salads. The paninis are okay a little skimpy on veggies and meat.similar to a panera bread but a little less expensive

  • Heather B.

    This place is new and started in Utah I believe? My boss recommended it. Great fresh ingredients and great menu for a health nut. A little disappointed in the portion sizes as the 1/2 salad seemed to be the same size as the full with a BIG price gap. So, if you go get a 1/2 salad as it's the same size as the full! Great place for lunch, clean and friendly staff! :-)

  • Kathy M.

    Food is amazing. Quinoa and Kale salad is my favorite. Honey cilantro pork carnitas sandwich..highly recommend. Tomato basil and cauliflower soup highly recommend. I could eat here every day. And for 8.79 you can get the try 2 combo. Worth it!

    (5)
  • Food L.

    Forget reading the review... go to this place to taste the best soups!! Comparing to Wild flower bread co and Paradise bakery, this place is way way ......... way better! Their soups are yummiest best. They make unique dressings for their salads which gives a wonderful taste. We had strawberry salad and panini and soup combo. You will be licking till the last drop of the soup in the bowl. They have a wide variety of salads too. Though the cost is may be a notch higher that other places, but its worth the taste.

  • Monica M.

    I went w/ a friend for grand opening (we had a 50% coupon dine in only) Staff is extremely friendly which is great and were so helpful in getting us highchairs for the kiddos. You do wait in line for your order and then take it to table when ready. They moved really quickly. Its kind of like paradise bakery in that you go thru the line cafeteria style, but they were much quicker w/ making the sandwiches. I had the Vegetarian Sandwich and the Tomato soup w/ Orzo. The bread was very soft and fresh as well as the rest of the ingredients, but I feel that they were really skimpy w/ the veggies :( Especially w/ a veggie sandwich I want A LOT of veggies, but it was a very thin, 1 layer of sprouts and cucumber and bell peppers. Hope they change that up a bit. The soup was very yummy though. Their combo comes w/ a whole sandwich and cup of soup, but it was a large bowl of soup so good value for money PLUS you get a chocolate covered strawberry w/ meal!! I saw an employee dipping them in the back through the glass (yummy!!) I would have given 3.5 stars, but I don't think you can.

  • Kellie S.

    It is very clean and the staff is very friendly but I will say ordering was more complicated than it should be. they wanted to make sure we understood the menu and how to order which was great but when I ordered and going down the line I had to repeat my order 3 times. I assume that will clear and be better given they've only been open for 2 weeks. As for the food I ordered the Cuban sandwich and mushroom soup. the soup was great but the sandwich I had had a fishy taste to it which I wasn't too fond of. I will come back and try a different combination. I love the passion tea unsweetened

    What a great places a verity of stuff to choose from the staff very friendly and warm welcoming place. Very clean and drink station is fun to mess with everything is fresh and clean eats and that's hard to find. We will definitely be coming back to this place.

    Just ate at the Chandler location. The food is AWESOME. I just love the Mushroom Bisque. But it was sooooo slow!! When I walked in there was a long line, I asked the girl handing out menus at the door how long the wait was, she said "I just clocked it and it is 4 minutes" well she needed to add 20 minutes on to that time. The veggies, meats, soups etc are prepped. Just place some greens in a bowl, add toppings and BAM you have a salad. A few people in front of me had to send back their orders becuase they were constantly wrong. When I finally got to the check out I asked if I could phone my order in and I was informed hopefully in August that will be up and running for phone/on line orders. I have eaten at the Mesa and Scottsdale as well and the service was not this slow. I will be back........ in a few months. Hopefully they will have worked out all their 'issues' in the meantime Jimmy Johns is right across the way and they are 'Freakishly Fast'

    I honestly feel bad about about giving this cafe only two stars today. The service was prompt, friendly and efficient but the food was not. My Kale and Quinoa salad which was made with blueberries, grapes, parmesan cheese, cherries and nuts was tossed nicely but with a tasteless dressing. The Yucatan Chicken Tortilla soup had a tasty broth but was a tad salty. One of my diing partners ordered the Lobster Bisque and was turned off by the saltiness of the soup. She paid for croutons as an extra, tried adding extra crackers to balance the soup but she still could not enjoy it. The kitchen staff kindly gave sour cream to blend in but that didn't work. She sampled the New England Clam Chowder but that too had an off the chart salt reading. She ended up ordering the Crab Avocado Melt instead and the kind staff brought it to our table no charge. That's great service! I have dined at the Camelback location and had wonderful experiences. Perhaps it could be that this location just opened up earlier this month and needs time to get things down pat. I will return to Cafe Zupas for they usually serve up wonderful meals. I'll give it a few months. :)

    Went it during their half off opening special and ordered the Crab Avocado Melt and Cherry Balsamic Salad. The salad was fine, but the crab avocado did not have any avocado, bacon, or muenster as stated in the menu. It was just some crab mix, celery, and tomato. Normally I would've brought this to someone's attention but it was half off the food and the line was out the door. During a very busy weekend I can see mistakes being made, but I was still disappointed in my bland sandwich.

    loved the service, the food, and the prices. I got the combo and they even add a chocolate covered strawberry. I will be here at least once a week.
