excellent soups and salads. great service and friendly people

Came in for dinner on Friday 1/14. What a great experience. Store was clean and food was delicious. What really stood out was the staff. Very personable and friendly. The manager Jennifer asked me how everything was and answered a few question. Very knowledge. I will let many know about my experience. Thank you Jennifer. read more

The absolute best customer service. A server /floor person Cody was amazing. He was very in tune to customers and their needs. In my 30 years in business - probably some of the best service. He would make a great manager / trainer. read more

Love Wildflower Bread Company. From the pancakes, soups and sandwiches. If you are looking for real food you can't go wrong with Wildflower. In addition, the staff is wonderful! I just had another great experience!!! Thank you Jacob and Kelsey for making sure my sometimes difficult orders are always perfect! Their exemplary customer service is amazing!!! read more

We frequent this location often and overall we are highly satisfied. Some menu items are hit and miss. I definitely do not recommend the mixed berry french toast if you like butter and maple syrup with your french toast, or at least ask for these items. I do recommend the chocolate chip scones. I always get a few for later. I also always get their seasonal items as well which tend to be very good. Staff is friendly and always is quick to fix any issues. Weekend during brunch tends to get busy so plan on being their for a bit. read more

Wildflower - Chocolate chip scone- wildflower bread company - New American Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

After waiting nearly 25 min for my Caesar salad hence the 3 stars I have to say the salad was rather filling. It tasted pretty standard for a Cesar salad no twist on it. There raspberry orange lemonade is very very good. I wouldn't come rushing back, but I'm not opposed to trying there turkey cranberry sandwich read more

I love the salads at Wildflower and the soups are delicious too. My favorite item on the menu is the tuna sandwich. The bread is so good and the tuna salad has just the right amount of mayo. The line does get really long and sometimes the wait for food can take longer than it should. read more

Very disappointed. Opens an hour later than before Covid. Got here at 9:30 a.m. and a few plain bagels left. All other bakery items empty but a bunch of chocolate chip scones. Not worth coming until things open up more. read more

When this place first opened, I was working for a company nearby and would frequent this establishment often because it reminded me of Northern CA. It had good bread, interesting combinations and at the time, a non-chain quality ingredient type restaurant. I introduced many to this place including my Mother and co-workers galore. When I was in AZ in January, I had a breakfast date planned with a girlfriend from high school. It is amazing at what connections Facebook has brought back into my life and this is one of the great ones. I suggested to meet here because it was easy enough to hop on the 101 from Sun City and easy enough for her to hop on I-17 from where she lives. I arrived a little early and waited in the car right in front of the restaurant. I was thrilled to see how busy it was and all the people drinking coffee and eating outside with their dogs. As I was getting out of the car, I noticed a particular stunning dog and talked to him first then looked at the owner of the pooch. Wouldn't you know it, but it was on of my old bosses (a big boss at that) whom I hadn't seen in maybe 12 years. Small world indeed! Lara walked up and we went inside. I had to keep myself from drooling at all of the baked offerings and almost ordered my old favorite lunch instead of breakfast. After going back and forth a little (this is an order at the counter type of place) I opted for the lemon ricotta pancakes and a couple of over easy eggs on the side. Lara ordered the banana nut pancakes with scrambled eggs and we both had iced tea. The bill was something less than $20 and we easily found a booth, hankered down and sipped on delicious tea while we waited for our food. The food was great-eggs perfectly done, pancakes delicious albeit a little more dense than I am used to with ricotta cakes, but really good. We took up the booth for what seemed like hours (it was really only about 1 1/2) and chatted away. Was the breakfast 5 stars, no, probably more like a solid 3.75 but for all they offer, for the memories, the company and the iced tea alone, it is a 5 all the way. read more

Whenever I am running around in the Deer Valley area, I try to stop in to this location. They seem to be a little less crowded (for the most part) than their other locations and I've never had an issue with slow table bus-sing, etc. The most appealing part of this chain is that their food is consistent and reasonably priced. Personal favorites for breakfast are either of the Fritatta's (Honey-Cured Ham and Brie or Feta and Roasted Vegetable) if I'm feeling the need for something substantial. If I'm feeling a little sinful, I go straight for the Lemon Ricotta Pancakes, sans syrup and slathered in fresh whipped butter and blueberry compote (ask nicely and they'll pony up extra blueberries). Blue teeth be damned, I simply can't get enough of these things - they are light and melt in your mouth with the most amazing flavor. I used to always buy a package of the mix on the way out, so that I could indulge in privacy, but I've only seen the basic mix as of late. : ( For lunch or dinner I'm a sucker for the Roast Beef and Gorgonzola Sandwich (perfectly rare Roast Beast topped with fresh greens, roasted red peppers, and just the right amount of cheese) or the Wildflower Two, which allows you to select any two from their daily soups, half sandwich, or salads. If you don't have time for a meal, stop in and grab a loaf of yummy bread. My personal favorites are the Nine Grain and the Honey Wheat-berry. Or have some real fun and buy one of their mother truck-in HUGE soft pretzels. These things are so big, you could hook each side loop on to your ears and wear them as a mask... hey maybe I'm seeing a new super hero being born... pretzel man! Any way you slice it, you should be able to find something to tempt your palette, so grab your table card, fill up your drink, enjoy whatever local artist they have performing, and delight in the world of carbs! read more

This Wildflower Bread Company store is fantastic ~ a great place to go for breakfast, lunch or even dinner! I love a good cup of soup with a side salad or a half sandwich for lunch. If there is a Wildflower close by, that's usually my pick of places to go when given other options based on their consistent good food and service. This Wildflower seems to be one of their best in the Phoenix market. ***CAUTION*** don't park directly in front of the restaurant!! The shopping center parking lot is designed poorly so there is a lot of traffic buzzing in front of this Wildflower with CRAZY DRIVERS!!! They drive like they are insane and all 15 minutes late getting back to work or going to their movie. Restaurant ~ they are conveniently located just of the north 101 loop and I17hwy in the Deer Valley Towne Center. The restaurant is always very clean and the servers are super quick to clean up empty tables to waiting customers. It's not one of their fancier restaurants but the atmosphere is welcoming and friendly. Service ~ they are very quick and friendly. They are knowledgeable about what they sell and will help you answer any questions you have about their menu, breads and pastries. Food ~ almost everything on their menu is either 4 or 5 stars. I like their Turkey Breast & Brie sandwich on their herb bread and their Grilled Turkey Pastrami on caraway rye. Both are DELISH and served with either chips, slaw or their corn salad! Salads choices: Mediterranean salad or try their new seasonal salad ~ Fiery Butternut Squash salad is very different and a flavor-fest for your taste buds. Soups vary by day but if available both their Artichoke & Chicken Florentine and their seasonal Autumn Pumpkin soups are very good. Their are several places to choose when your craving soup, salad or a sandwich so consider going to this Wildflower. You won't be disappointed and in fact you will probably start planning your next visit to the Wildflower. I hope to see you there. read more

I should have known better. I was in the mood for pasta and thought I would drop in for some penne alfredo, meatballs and a salad. At 7:00 p.m. the restaurant was pretty empty so I decided to get my order to go. The order was made quickly and I was on my way in about 5 minutes which didn't seem strange until I got home and looked at my food. The pasta wasn't even enough to cover the bottom of the container. I'm not complaining because the container wasn't full - it didn't even have enough pasta to make one layer of penne noodles. The meatballs were cold but the garlic bread and salad were fine. For $15 my meal was not a good value and I don't plan on returning. It's disappointing because the menu always sounds so good but the restaurant doesn't seem to deliver. read more

Wildflower - Penne pasta with alfredo sauce - for $8 you don't even get enough to cover the bottom of the to go container. Not a great value. - New American Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Yelp cuts off my full review, so feel free to visit my blog for the full review, as I have condensed this one to mention just the food: http://bit.ly/bu8taT [Begin excerpt] The Food: This is what the review is all about, and this is where WBC really shines. For the remainder of any additional WBC reviews I do, I can skip all of the introductory information and link back to it, because the food is the only thing we mix up. WBC uses very fresh ingredients. Obviously any dishes that have a bread component to them is baked fresh in their bakery daily. Sandwiches come with crisp lettuce, fresh tomatoes, delightful cheeses, etc. It seems like when the owner or head chef of the WBC was creating the menu they really believed in the old creed that "Fresh ingredients make a fresh taste." In the most recent visit, I ordered the Turkey Pastrami Sandwich with the mixed chips and honey mustard on the side. This particular sandwich is a "hot sandwich" the thick layer of Swiss cheese comes melted and layered between succulent pieces of 99% fat-free turkey pastrami. Served on a piece of caraway rye bread, I found this sandwich to be one of my favorites. I order the honey mustard on the side, but I feel the need to explain that I do this because I love it so much. The WBC honey mustard can only be described as the thickest and tastiest combination of flavors you will ever try. They make real honey mustard (none of this high fructose corn syrup stuff), where you can see the honey in the honey mustard. I usually get it on the side because I am a dipper (both my chips and my sandwich) and it makes each bite have a rush of flavors. My wife ordered the Caesar salad (dressing on the side) and their famous Potato Cream Cheese soup. The customary procedure for our meals is that I sample some of her food, and she samples some of mine. In this particular case I have actually ordered this exact meal before, so I can describe it pretty well. My wife usually finds this to be her favorite soup. Served just hot enough (not scolding, and not cold) it comes with a piece of bread for dipping and usually in a cup or a bread boule. The soup has a creamy cheese taste and each bite is overflowing with soft pieces of potato. The salad is crisp and delicious and is served with pieces of thinly cut fresh Parmesan cheese, which I promptly steal from my wife and eat for myself. Muaha! After our meal there is a 99% chance we've already ordered some sort of pastry to nom on, so BEHOLD: 2 Chocolate Chip Cookies. Alright, let's just everybody relax. These cookies are gooooooood. Freshly baked, always soft, bitter-sweet chocolate chips. I am strong enough to admit that I don't love these as much as Paradise Bakery cookies, but my wife does. I think it's the semi-sweet chocolate chips they use. But I can admit, these are damn good cookies. Good enough that I order one with every meal (except breakfast). read more

Yesterday my wife and I both had a "half" of the roasted sweet potato sandwich, which normally comes with "roasted sweet potato, fresh mozzarella, fig confit, tomato, arugula, marinated fennel and Balsamic Vinaigrette on Herb Focaccia". Obviously, we get it without the mozzarella, and it's fantastic! The half sandwich is still big, don't know if I could eat a whole one. We also both got a bowl of the vegetarian chili, which is vegan. It was also fantastic. Lots of vegan bread options and otherwise (hummus plate, salads, etc). I appreciate that they use a wide variety of unique ingredients, veggies & herbs, that you don't normally find at most other restaurants. We'll definitely be frequenting Wildflower more often now. read more

Great lunch spot! I travel to Phoenix quite a bit for work and sometimes have challenges finding lunch spots that are easily veganizable near my office. Thank goodness for Wildflower! I typically order their wildflower house salad and veganize it. The portion sizes are perfect for a quick lunch, especially with the bread of the day on the side and an ice cold green tea! Yummy! There can be limited seating during the lunch rush, but I always manage to find a spot either indoor or on the outdoor patio. If nothing else I grab something to take back to the office. Thank you for making my travels easier! I am certain we shall meet again on my next visit! read more

The food was good on several previous visits, but I am never returning to this restaurant or any others in the chain. Why? Food preparers in the kitchen botched my simple sandwich not once but twice. Why is that? They (two separate individuals!) were playing with a cell phone and showing each other and a third person pictures on it. Yes, playing with a dirty cell phone using the same hands they were preparing my food with. Playing with it while they prepared the food. The same cell phone they probably use in the bathroom and God only knows where else, covered in germs (how often does anyone clean their phone, really???). I brought this to the attention of the manager and he informed me that he'd already spoken to a different employee regarding the same issue, so apparently it happens often there. Can you say gross? I'm sorry, but that is absolutely and utterly disgusting. How can you betray your customers' trust like that, right in front of them, and play with your dirty, unsanitary phone while you make their sandwiches (wrongly to boot, since you're not paying attention?). I don't know what is worse, that multiple employees do this or that the management didn't seem to think it was an issue. I'm super disappointed because I liked the food, very much in fact, but I will not risk my own or my family's health to eat someplace where basic sanitation is not a serious concern in the kitchen. Perhaps I should feel lucky that I didn't get sick previously? I don't know. I wrote to the owners of the restaurant to let them know what happened and that I won't be back until these individuals are no longer working there. There should be zero tolerance when food safety is concerned and obviously that is not the case at this location. Simply disgusting. I hope it was a freak thing and not a regular issue over there, as management has since assured me, but one can never say. That I didn't notice it happening before doesn't mean it didn't happen before, but that argument works both ways. After speaking with the owner directly, I'm considering returning at a later date to give them another chance and will amend my review accordingly at that time. Fingers crossed for a better experience next time. read more

Located in the Super Target shopping area at the SW intersection of the 101 and I-17. Wildflower serves up amazing breakfasts that you order at the counter. It's full service food without the tips! Soups are great at lunch, and don't forget to take home a loaf of bread. Prices are very reasonable, and parking isn't an issue. Luna Pizza a few doors down can be tempting competition though! read more

Free Wi-Fi...I don't get a very good connection here. There is no time restrictions like Paradise Bakery does during rush hour times, though. Also they don't block every freakin' site (that I know of) like Peter Piper does...plus they don't have a bunch of kids running around spilling stuff on your computer. Lunch time is pretty crowded...it is hard to find a seat. I usually go early in the morning when they first open or around 3 to avoid the crowd. I don't know how dinner is, though. Prices are a little higher than Paradise I think considering the portions are smaller. Sandwiches and salads are 6-8 dollars. I've had the tuna and chicken salad sandwiches. It was way to much clover sprouts. I like sprouts, but it was like 75% of the sandwich. I like the chicken salad as a salad though. I also got the emerald spinach salad. The spicy pecans were so good! Oriental salad was good, a little heavy on the dressing. Not a big dressing person, so if your like me ask for it on the side. Their soups are good and they always have at least 2 vegetarian options...I used to be for 7 years so I know how amazing that is. I got the new mayan chai latte...i loved it. My friend hated it, so I guess thats how it goes love it or hate it. read more

Oochie wild wild (flower) Oochie bread bread.....(company) This place is always popping with patrons during lunch. I would say one of the healthier choices when it comes to eating out. I always order their half sandwich and half soup deal. Love the French Onion and the Potato Cream soups. As for the sandwich I dig them all. The portions are just right for me and truthfully just right for most of us. Quality over quantity is what I preach; so quit stuffing your face until you feel like you need to pop (SEVEN - Ouch!). The place has outdoor seating except I wouldn't sit there since traffic around the complex is pretty hectic. All that dust flying around means extra salt in my diet I guess. Indoor seating is recommended, but during lunchtime -- good luck finding a seat. I wish the place would expand! - Enjoy! read more

Always a pleasure to eat here. Not just this location either, they all seem to have the same standards and all meet them highly. Absolutely love this place. Soups are amazing and plenty to eat. Salads are absolutely tasty. Grab one of each and feast with a partner. Highly recommend it read more

A favorite Phoenix stop. I love this place. AZ's version of Panera just better. Like everything in AZ. I come in the a.m. for the fresh daily pastries. And the breakfasts are fantastic. The servers always make sure everything is in order and you're well taken care of. You shouldn't be disappointed. read more

Galvin Logan and Taylor were amazing Server's and very friendly n polite Great food and clean the atmosphere is amazing read more

Ok, back again...and again! I actually find myself thinking about their potato and cream soup. While the nutritional value is heavy in fat/carbs...it has now become my cheat day meal! And, the chicken cesear salad, while sounds basic, is my go-to meal while I'm on lunch break. I love that the service is quick enough that I can even swing in on my 30 minute break. Their bread is absolutely delicious...I am a huge fan of the sourdough! I'm not sure if it is actually baked fresh daily, or like other places, shipped in frozen and then placed in the oven. I would be curious to know. Would recommend over Panera/Paradise! read more

I like stopping here when in need of a meal and driving through Phoenix. It's right at the intersection of the I-10 and the I-17 which is quite convenient. It can get super busy, but they're pretty efficient. I like the half sandwich deal a lot. The half is still really really big and not too expensive. I also really like the vegetarian chile. I haven't been here for breakfast in forever but their options look really good. It is a lot like Paradise Bakery, but I like it so so so much more. The sandwiches are just more appetizing. Much better options. read more

So who knew the Wildflower Bakery was a restaurant? I have driven past the "Bakery" almost everyday for 5 years. Never knew it... Someone I work with said "Hey, lets do lunch at Wildflower", I asked "What, are we having bread?" He explained that they have great sandwiches, soups and salads. So we headed over. This is what I found... A clean fresh environment, a courteous staff who were attentive to my needs, a great menu with sandwiches, soups and salads. A large variety with something for everyone. The sandwiches are worth the eight dollars. Would I go back? YES, and I have several time since. Never have I been disappointed in either the service or the meal. read more

I had the worst experience ever! I was on my lunch brake; therefore, I didn't have 3 hours to spare.... Not only that i waited for a cup of soup and salad for a while - it was inposiblle to find a seat. It was really frustrating. On top of it all, service was not good either. Our cashier was on the phone while we were waiting to place our order. What happened to days where customer that makes a drive has a priority over somebody on the phone. The place is very crowded. After we finally got a seat, I felt other customers were seating at my table. You really got no privacy/space at this place unless you are lucky to grab a boot. Unfortunately, it was a bad experience for me and I do not think, I will be going back anytime soon........ read more

I go through a lot of East Coast food withdrawal here. I miss NJ food..big time. There are some things in NJ that are fairly impossible to find here in AZ-so I depend a lot on my friends back home to send me stuff. One of those regional goodies is called Taylor Ham-It's a NJ thing. I can't explain it..it just rocks-the official name is pork roll I believe. Well, wildflower makes a taylor ham sandwich. I almost died from the happiness I experienced. I saw it on the menu, and I cheered wondering if it could possibly be my beloved taylor ham from NJ. It is..I dont know why they sell it, or how they found out about it, or what genius decided this would do well, but I am not an avid fanof Wildflower from now on, and hope it never ever leaves the menu. This location is an ok size-The iced coffee is TERRIBLE. Beyond awful. It had a very artificial after taste. blech! Service was nice..a lot like Paradise Bakery. Plenty of high chairs for parents but not sure if there are changing tables in the bathroom. I'll have to check that out next time I go in. read more

Wildflower is one of my go-to lunch spots. They have delicious sandwiches, soups and bread. Some of my favorite choices are: Turkey breast & brie on 9 grain roasted sweet potato (no fennel) on 9 grain roast beef & gorgonzola on 9 grain potato cream cheese soup Service is always friendly and fast too which really helps during the crazy lunch rushes. read more

I wanted cheap and easy, and this place reminds me of Le Pain Quotidien in how it offers great food for reasonable prices and other market-style goodies as well. I was traveling for business and was relieved to find a Panera-esque restaurant on Yelp. I ordered the Salmon/Mango salad, as well as a mango sandwich. Both were delicious, and the same price as if I'd gotten similar fare at Panera. I'm sad that we don't have these in Philly, but I'll definitely be back if I'm ever traveling in the area and need a quick meal. read more

I mean what else can u ask for when u have a great environment for u to sit down and eat ur healthy food ! I love the buffalo chicken sandwich the sauce is to die for and their salmon cesar salad is outta this world. Very affordable too! U won't break the bank. I eat here almost 4 times a week haha read more

I've been here three times and each time I tell myself I'm not going to bother coming back... I've had the Caesar Salad before, BAD. Today I had the wildflower salad. It was so blah and small. Especially for the high prices. There's always a long wait to order and an even longer wait for the food to come out. I don't know why I bother coming back. read more

I am a longtime fan of Wildflower, particularly this location. I no longer live in that area but I'm quite the yelper these days so I'm catching up on the kudos. The food here is wonderful. The salads are amazingly refreshing, cleverly crafted, and the portions are generous. Their selection of soups in the chilly weather are the very definition of comfort food. The breads are amazing as well, though not the main attraction in spite of "bread" being part of their name. The desserts range from tasty to decadent. I also appreciate the customer service here and the fact that they do indeed bring the food to your table even when the place is jam packed wall to wall. There is but one cautionary note for this location - the parking. It is so not the fault of the establishment, but take note...park a little further away and walk versus parking right in front of the door because you will never get out. It may sound petty, but the parking situation can sometimes be a dealbreaker for me. I can't be alone on this or else it wouldn't be mentioned in the primary description for any place listed here on Yelp. Aside from that, this and any other Wildflower Bread Co. location is definitely worth a visit for something different. Don't leave without a chocolate pumpkin muffin if they have them! To die for... read more

Loved this place since it open but they have changed their menu up a little and it seems they have cut corners and products out of there repartee. The sandwich I got this weekend was very bland and somewhat disappointing in portion size I've grown accustom to at the "WBC" and they've discontinued making their bread salad. (Very disappointing) I will be back but with fewer expectations I guess. I received an apology letter from the founder and an offer to refund my money. I don't need a refund... this is not what Yelp is about, but it was really refreshing to know that a company still cares about their customers reviews. After re reading my review it may have sounded worse than my experience actually was. The sandwich I got was a new one from their menu named the Spicy Chipotle Egg Sandwich, it was good but I like SPICY!!! I may order it again and just ask for an extra egg and some more chipotle sauce. The gentleman did give me the recipe for the salad that I've enjoyed in the past. This type of service is what makes a customer for life. read more

In the battle of Wildflower Bread Company and Paradise Bakery, Wildflower wins hands down. The food is fresh, from scratch, with tasty, fresh produce. Paradise, by comparison, seems mass-produced, stale, and straight from a can. Wildflower has decent breakfasts, great sandwiches, very creative salads with generous portions, different soups every day, and after 3pm some great pastas. The food and the menu and both fresh, they seem to have intriguing new salads and pastas every few months. Case in point, the Chicken Pistachio Pomegranate Salad: on paper, it's a wild combination of arugula, a touch of cabbage, sliced chicken, chunks of orange, some peppers, kalamata, feta, and pistachios. It sounds wild, but it's tasty and refreshing, with something different in every bite. read more

Last night, I ate the best sandwich I've ever had. True story. Wildflower's seasonal sandwich, the Turkey Cranberry Walnut Stuffing, is so good, it's almost unreal. If you're a fan of Thanksgiving dinner complete with tender, moist turkey, homemade stuffing and cranberries, you will thoroughly enjoy this sandwich just as I did. I can't wait to try all of their other sandwiches (after I order the Turkey Cranberry 10+ more times). I can't wait until I get to come back! read more

Breakfast, Lunch or Dinner, love Wildflower. For breakfast the stuffed french toast is awesome, lunch any of their sandwiches are good. I don't really care for the salads but I love the Potato cream cheese soup. The ice tea is so good and the desserts are wonderful. My favorite thing is the Salmon Alfredo, that they serve with yummy garlic toast. I like the order at the front and they bring it to you, very convenient and I don't have to tip! read more

I loved this place! I was here for breakfast, but they're good for brunch and lunch too. I'm a vegetarian, so took a while to make a pick from the menu. The waitress ably assisted me. I ordered a Bagel with Cream Cheese, Quinoa Cranberry Kale side salad and a Green Ice Tea. Everything was very very well done. They had a variety of breads to choose from! I picked the 9 Grain Bagel, and it was toasted just right and filled with the perfect amount of cream cheese to go with it! The salad was a true winner and the right size for a side. All the flavors were spot on! I relished the passion fruit flavor in the green tea. And all this for $8! I highly recommend this restaurant if u r craving salads and breakfast menu .... anytime of the day! read more
