First time there and I absolutely loved it large menu and a variety of healthy combination to choose from soups,salads, and sandwiches.
Great fast, healthy casual spot! I brought my kids with and we all at very well for about $25 (3 kids). The soups were fantastic and I love that you can see the kitchen where everything is made. The facility is very clean and the employees were very nice, despite my kids being super indecisive about their meals as a line formed behind us! We would absolutely visit Cafe Zupas again when we are in the area!
1st time here.. steak and cheese on Italian. Hands down the best sandwich I have had in forever! Perfect combination of ingredients! And a complimentary chocolate dipped strawberry!
Good food and reasonable prices. Outside seating open.First time here and enjoyed the food with friendly staff and the manager was helpful. Thank you .
I love Zupas!! They have the best salads, soups and sandwiches. They also have really good desserts (that I can never resist) but the meals do include a complimentary chocolate covered strawberry. A very nice surprise! Also, the employees are always super friendly. Great service.
The customer service at this particular Zupas is just excellent! I always have weird orders (Wisconsin Cauliflower with mozzarella pearls? No problem!) and they have always gone above and beyond to accommodate them. Today in particular JC was just amazing about figuring out what I needed and making it happen. Kudos to the management for keeping such a vibrant, cohesive team together during a global pandemic!
Love going to this location. Great food and great service. Fresh ingredients and such health conscious selections. Keto friendly, vegetarian options, and their menu clearly lists macros. Perfect for healthy lunch.
Favorite lunch spot, delicious soup, sandwiches, and salad. We have never been disappointed. Friendly and efficient staff make you glad you came.
A great option if youre tired of these overrated fast food joints. This place dont even have a deep freyer in it. Tried almost the whole menu and still cant decide which item is the best yet.
Soup was expensive, the bowls are worth it though. Very few options for vegans. 1 soup to choose from and 1 bowls could be turned into a vegan bowl...thats it. The bowl was really good though
This place has gone down hill. Drive-thru is garbage. They have you wait in the back by what looks like a storage area. They didnt bring my food and I had to go inside to get it. All I ordered was a soup! Then the soup gave me major diarrhea. I havent eaten since breakfast and got the soup about 4:15pm. NEVER AGAIN! Im sure only the manager has a serve safe certificate. Train your staff on hygiene!!!!
My husband, mother in law & I came for lunch last Thursday. I had never heard of this restaurant. I was SO pleasantly surprised!Being vegan sometimes it can be difficult for me to find things to eat at certain restaurants. But I had no problem here, the staff was so helpful! The food was absolutely fantastic! Everything was so fresh and delicious.I live 45 minutes from where this is so I really hope that theyBuild one near me
Love the food here, but literally stood in line (no one else in line, non-peak @2:30) for @5 minutes while employees did other things.
The food was fresh and excellent!Please open a sight in Charlotte NCWe really need a place like this in our city!!
I don’t normally write reviews but I just had to this time. This one employee named Ariana is really peddling to the medal whenever I go in. She always is so amazing at taking my order and makes me the best quality salads I’ve ever had. She is so kind and always makes me feel so at home. I look forward to my next visit where I’ll definitely go feral for the food she provides 😁.
Café Zupas does not disappoint. The food is delicious and the staff is attentive. The manager recognized me from the previous day and even recalled my preferences. Cant like this place enough!
I have always like Zupas especially since they have vegetarian options. This past weekend was the second time I had meat stuck to my sandwich. I gave them a second chance since the first time the manager said that they usually have one grill for no meat sandwiches but it was down. This time I got a full slice of bacon stuck to my sandwich! Needless to say I will no longer be supporting Zupas and hope that if you are vegetarian you fully check your sandwich before you eat it like it did. Couldnt imagine what I would have felt like if I would have eaten it. Horrible.
Tried to get food for dine-in. Although there was plenty of workers on the line they were completely unorganized. I waited over 20 minutes from ordering before I had to leave without any food.
3rd time in a row they got my order wrong and placing my order over an hour in advance was still 10+ minutes after I got there. I get that theyre busy but I ordered in advance and it was still wrong and they werent nice about it. I had to argue with them to get the incorrect meal fixed. Honestly Im not a big complainer but if I have to call to let you know it was incorrect you acknowledged I got the wrong order as soon as I said my order was wrong (you got the seafood sandwich didnt you I had ordered grilled cheese) it was a pain to come back in to get a new meal made then argue with the cashier who wanted to charge me for the corrected meal. I was then given coupons to get free lunch in the drive thru pick up and it was wrong two more times and it took forever.l dispute advance online ordering. Lunch there is not cheap you need to do better Zupas not sure Ill be back Im so disappointed and wasted so much of my breaks
In Utah (where Im from), Zupas is a household name like any other fast-food restaurant. They do what McDonalds and friends could never hope to do though, cause you to slow down and enjoy the food. They deserve 5+ stars and more regular customers for good wholesome food.
Great food, really friendly staff. I had it as catering before this and it was really good so I had to try in the store. It was definitely worth it. We also got some dessert, a mousse cake which was just great.
I had been trying to go here for a long time. Finally did and I have to say the southwest salad was one of the best I have ever had. The chicken noodle soup was bland. Will be returning.
Lobster w roasted red pepper soup was delicious. Lots of Lobster in soup.
First time visiting. I love the great selection healthy options. I chose the bot so healthy, but still delicious option, had the Korean brisket sandwich and an avocadish salad. Came with bread and a chocolate covered strawberry. Good vibes, good food.
Generally I love coming here. The food is fantastic and never seems to disappoint but today in particular I did not appreciate the service that was provided. A bleach blonde haired girl with glasses taking my sister and I’s order had an annoyed attitude which was completely unnecessary. We politely put in our order for simply two sandwiches but she rolled her eyes and delayed asking for my sister’s order until she stood there to finally be recognized. Hopefully this gets addressed instead of looked over.
Used Cafe Zupas to cater our offices lunch this past Monday. Sam from the cafe took our personal Box Lunch over the phone. She spent time to make sure all the order details, names, and desserts were in the system. Was able to pay over the phone, the order was delivered on time, with NO mistakes on 13 personal orders! It was nice to hear from the regional manager too after. Great Customer Service, Friendly and Great Quality Food...would recommend! Thank you!
The Lobster bisque and chicken enchilada soups were both fresh and delicious
Food was good and staff was super friendly. I think I like chick-fil-A salads better though. No offense to this place - just preference thing. Sandwiches are good though!
We ordered food for curbside pickup. After waiting for 15 minutes I went inside. The employees just looked at each other when I asked about my order. Finally one employee pointed to a table and said that may be our order. It was and I just received a sorry from one employee. When we got home my salad had no chicken even though it was supposed to have it. I called the store manager who told me he would refund us for the salad. A week later and no refund. Not a well managed restaurant. We will not be returning.
Great food. Great treats. Great staff. Especially Ariana. It was my birthday and they gave me a free creme brûlée. So good!!!! Again Ariana was sweet.
Serving sizes are ridiculously small. I ordered a large Southwest protein bowl to go and it looked like only half the container was filled to me. It didnt nearly look the size of what panera serves as a full salad. There was probably 3 shreds of cheese and three small pepper slices... what?? couldnt even tell if it really had cheese and peppers. The pork was tasty, but couldnt have been more than 2.5oz of meat. I weigh my food so Im pretty good at eyeballing the weight of meat. It was definitely not enticing enough to return there for $11 for half a salad, especially since Im still hungry after a PROTEIN bowl. I came here many, many years ago and remember the servings being too small, but thought Id give it a try again... now Im wishing I gave my money to Panera...
I rated this place 5 stars 2 years ago, I just ordered 40$ worth of food from Uber and I must say this place has declined.Where to start, the potato soup was watery and had virtually no potatoes in it.The Avacodo Crab sandwich was soggy and untoasted like it was taken out early, couldnt even finish the meal.The Half Chicken Enchilada chili was watery and inedible.The offer Baquettes but give you rolls.I will never order from this place again 40$ went into the garbage.
My best friend and me got together for our weekend lunch to try something new i tried theyre chicken noodle soup mmm... It was delicious and the salad I believe it was berry salad. I loved it. On our go to list
I drive for Uber eats as a side hustle. This location in Bloomingdale has been a really great place to pick up from. A lot of very friendly and helpful staff.A big shout out to Sam. She took care of a customer order issue that I had tonight. She was very prompt and apologetic because an item in the order had to be replaced. Customer was extremely happy that she took care of his order and she got me back on the road with very little delay.Thank you Sam. You are awesome!
Tried this for the first time today. Came across it on GrubHub. I did the pick two with the California Cobb Salad and the Chicken Enchilada Chili. The flavors were amazing. I really enjoyed the fresh herb vinaigrette. The only thing I didn’t really care for was the side of bread and that’s fine with me. Every meal comes with a single chocolate covered strawberry which was nice. I did knock off a few stars though bc the servings were very small, yet it cost more than a similar situation at Panera or Potbelly where you get bigger “halves”. The salad in particular was very small. I ate everything and don’t feel full. I would go back but would either try to just stick with full sized items hoping that’s better or different combo’s, maybe with a sandwich instead.
First time trying this place after hearing good things. Service was good and the whole place seemed really nice and clean. But then upon opening my meal back at home it seemed that both my salad and sandwich were missing ingredients. No avocado (or an invisibly minuscule amount) on my crab avocado sandwich, no broccolini or snap peas in my salad that were listed as included in the ingredients. Not sure if they were training new staff or running short on certain ingredients or what the deal was. It wasn’t busy either. I’m not usually one to complain as I’ve worked in the service industry, but this was a lot of stuff. Meal would have been great if it came with everything it said it would.
I am absolutely grateful for your worker Emma. I’ve noticed that she works here a lot because I go here almost everyday to grab something and I always catch her there working hard. For a young girl like her she seems to be outstanding!!! I always see her to be in a good mood talking with all her coworkers and they seem to be very comfortable around her because of her bubbly personality. I’ve talked to her some times of being there and she always makes sure my experience there is top notch. Thank you Emma!!!
Clearly unable to handle lunch rush, or more than more than 8 people in line. I stood in line for 27 minutes, basically wasting my whole lunch. On top of that when I finally made it to the register, they only made half of my order and were very confused. Good food, terrible service.
This is one of my favorite spots for lunch. The food is fresh and the employees are always friendly. My favorite items are the chicken enchilada chili and the turkey, bacon, avocado sandwich but I can honestly say that I havent had a bad meal here. And I love the chocolate covered strawberry that comes with every meal. Its a nice way to end a good meal!!
Let me begin that I am allergic to onions. I ordered through DoorDash and marked it please no onions I am allergic I also called the restaurant to make sure they wouldnt put onions on. I explained that I am allergic. I was assured they wouldnt put them on. I got my order and when I bit into the sandwich, there onions all over it. I had to give myself an epishot to prevent my throat from closing. I called the restaurant and the gal who answered was just like. Oh, sorry very nonchalant. She could give a hoot. No, empathy what so ever. I explained that this could have killed me (I had cousin die from a restaurant not preparing his order correctly after he requested them to omit an ingredient). The girl said maam what do you want, I said sorry. I guess I could refund you. Never received a refund. I emailed their corporate offices and received no response as well. It is seriously not that hard not to put, onions on an item. Every other restaurant seems to be able to. So, be warned if you decide to go there and need something omitted because you are allergic they dont care and will ignore the fact it could kill you.Also, they gave me the wrong dessert, and their child mac and cheese cheese is water with noodles.
The last 3 times I have ordered the cauliflower soup the recipe has been totally inconsistent. The first time it was as thick as mashed potatoes and the last 2 times it was like water. No cauliflower no cheese no leeks. I had this before COVI D and it was great. What happened to standards? Please fix thisFrustrated
Very good lobster bisque, have been several times, very consistent food. Service behind the counter always seem confused and slow but the chocolate covered strawberry makes up for it
They were advertising their new pick up window. Upon arrival I realized I needed to have pre-ordered to use it. I decided to go in and order. This took forever. I think the staff needs more training on how to manage both lines of customers.
Decided to try this for the first time, the menu on the outside seemed pretty tasty so we went in. ordered a kids meal chicken strips and fruit, decent price and my daughter liked them. i ordered their combo (turkey bacon avocado) which was great because it came with a full sandwich and a bowl of soup, which was under 10 dollars. i also liked that both meals came with a chocolate covered strawberry. i also enjoyed the drink bar they have.what i did not like was the amount of time our food was sitting out while we waited for other people in front of us to get their food and pay. the soup sat on a counter in front of me and the sandwich and chicken tenders sat on a counter behind the workers, which resulted in not so hot soup. the staff seemed very confused on what to do and how to handle the busyness, which is understandable considering this is a new restaurant. however, they should interact with the customers considering our food sits in front of our faces and we cant do anything about it. i also did not like that at each station in the line there was no communication so once you get to the cashier they have no idea which food is yours. i also did not like the proportion of the sandwich. i also asked for it without tomato and it came with tomato. one side had a little half piece of bacon and 2 extremely thin pieces of turkey with a glob of avocado that i had to wipe most off. the last thing i did not like is how close together all of he tables are so it makes it harder for people to cautiously walk through with a tray full of food.i probably wont eat here for a long time or until the staff becomes more proficient in what they are doing and maybe a make your own sandwich option.
The staff was incredibly friendly, but not very impressed with the food.
The food is not bad. The service could use some work!
Great soup and salad selection! Place is clean and ambience is refreshing. Soup portions are a bit on a smaller side, but they have a great choice of soups. Chocolate covered strawberry is a nice addition to every order. Will definitely be back.
I absoulutely love coming to this location! Great food and friendly staff always make me want to come back. Ashley has gone out of her way to make this location hold up to the Café Zupas reputation and elivate it to become my favorite place to eat and i will continue to come back. Keep up the great work Ashley!
Very tasty, and well prepared fresh food! Bright and clean, the design of the restaurant is tailored to make you feel as if you are eating healthy...and if you make the right choices, you are. Lovely salads, fresh soups, and a nice selection of sandwiches. I dined in, and was surprised to see a cute little packet containing a fresh chocolate dipped strawberry on my tray. Nice touch! The drink selection was amazing. Fresh infused fruit juices and teas, along with the traditional soft drink options. I can see myself stopping in just for one of the infused drinks alone!If you have a diet restriction, they make it super easy to see the ingredients, and caloric count. Items are marked Keto Paleo, Gluten Free etc.I am so excited to have found this great place!
My first order using online ordering. The mangoberry salad I got as a combo option was sooooo good. Probably only reason why I didnt rate this place any lower. I went around 2pm, as to not hit that lunch hour rush.My order was not ready at the time my email notification indicated.I went inside and there are no markers as to where to pick up food. I literally had to hide and seek the online order section. There werent even that many people inside. There definitely were enough workers so not an under staffing issue.Not one employee greeted or acknowledged me. There were at least 3 times that an associate walked right passed me without asking if they could help in any way.When my order was finally ready I went to get it from the shelve and the employee there didnt even say thank you or have a nice day.I usually go there because I crave the tomato basil soup but today even that didnt taste as good as it usually does.I dont know Cafe Zupa, your customer service was definitely lacking today.
Delicious food, great staff, clean restaurant, good portions. I’ve seen many people on here say they only fill the cup “2/3 of the way”, which I’ve asked about and it’s called portion sizing. The meals are filling unless you haven’t ate all day in that case get a larger size. Their large soup is 8 ounces which is an extremely large soup. I’m truly unsure how people complain about not enough food. Absolutely amazing place, would 100% recommend 5/5.
I tried to order off their drive thru. The mastines are 100 % automated. The mashing would not allow for more than one item. The device didn’t have a help button. The drive they Windows had no attendants. After 15 we had to leave.
The food is much healthier than your average restaurant from salads to fresh made sandwiches. This is a very family-friendly place which makes it comforting and welcoming. One nice thing is most entrees come with a fresh chocolate dipped strawberry, I would recommend this to a friend
Manager there named Ashley seems to be unprofessional. Her fake personality is noticeable with the laugh and voice she gives out to customers. I see her constantly on her phone where her employees take orders/make food. I come here at different times on different days and notice the employees seem more happy and confident when she’s not working. Wish I could give 0 stars.
Serving sizes are a joke for salads and soups. Very small salads even for the regular size, asked for blueberries and they put 2 small blueberries. We ordered a half and full size salad and they were the same exact size.Edit: changed review to one star. they opened a new drive thru so I ordered for pickup. Ended up waiting 25 min additional. I came in to check on the status and after 25 min they still didnt even start it when the entire restaurant was empty.
Very good fresh tasting food. Food tastes clean unlike the other greasy fast food places. The only wish I had was for hotter soup. But this was remedied via a micro waving it. I have had both soup and their salads and both where fresh and tasty.
Don’t order from here regularly unless you want your order to be wrong. I order from here when I’m at work once or twice a week because it’s quick and convenient. But I ordered a bbq chicken salad through DoorDash today and I was given something entirely different even though it was labeled bbq chicken, and I’m entirely done with this. There literally wasn’t even a single piece of chicken in my salad. I don’t understand how you make something that says chicken in the name and done give me chicken. And I don’t like what I was given at all so now I have no lunch. And this isn’t the first time. 2 stars only because sometimes it’s right but they really need to focus on training their people better on how to correctly fulfill orders without mistakes. I know we don’t live in a perfect world and mistakes happen, but they happen far too often from this location.
Definitely coming back!Pros: Healthy, fast, tasty food. The ingredients taste fresh and the environment is fun and clean. The salad, soups, and drinks are really good and taste house made. Great variety: you can make your own salad and the menu changes with the seasons. Portions are a good size. Some people complain that the portions are small, but when you look at the calories, for a half soup, half salad with tea, strawberry, and baguette, the caloric intake is about 1,000 calories. If they increased the portions, the calories would be insane for most calorie minded folks.Cons: I was not a fan of the sandwiches. The bread was too doughy for my taste. I feel like they could go further with the sourcing of their ingredients in terms of being more environmentally/health conscious (e.g organic, cage-free) for the price point and market theyre competing with.
Food is always fresh and amazing! Staff is super friendly. A little pricey but I feel it is worth is because Zupas feels so luxurious! Rolls with real butter and and chocolate covered strawberries! Come on can you get more extravagant than that?!??
I often visit with my son and the food and beverages are always delicious and fresh. Hard to find this kind of fast casual near our area. Thank you for always making our meal experience world class.
445, place was dirtyStacks of dishes piled by waste station.The staff seemed only to concentrate on dash orders.
Very very cramped if you eat there. Friendly staff and the chocolate dipped strawberry with your meal is a nice touch. The soups were OK, hubby really enjoyed his sandwich. They have unsweetened iced tea, a drink machine and their own home made concoctions (which werent for me).
Food is a 4 or 5 starService is a 4 or 5 starPulling a roll out of a plastic bag doesn’t scream “house made fresh from our kitchen”Always seems too cold in there regardless of the time of year.Watching my soup cool off while the one cashier handles 4 people ahead of me waiting for sandwiches is not that much fun.Small process changes would really help this place. It’s far better than average so I will deal with what I mentioned above. Plus staff is very nice.
The staff here is a hoot. Always friendly and fast.How I personally describe the food is, Panera...but better. Not only is the food fresher, the ingredients they have in each dish are very well picked. The soups are 10/10, I recommend the Wisconsin Cauliflower! They have infused water (wish is a favorite of mine) and a chocolate covered strawberry with each dish...who wouldnt want that?!
Ordered a Asian steak& quinoa bowl no steak at all & bland & small Totally underwhelming don’t order the bowls I would say . Got 2 sandwiches they were ok but overall disappointing honestly.
Food is nothing special. The lobster bisque at the Marianos in the same shopping center is better. Portions are small and they need to be more organized on getting all food out at same time. I ordered a soup and hot sandwich. While i was in the food ordering line, they placed the soup in a bowl on my tray and asked me to move along until I got to the cashier. There I waited for my sandwich and the cashier continued business/conversation over my soup which got cold and perhaps even got some complimentary bacteria.
Food was cold and staff today seemed to be unhappy to be at work. No one was willing to care we were a patrons. Tossed my sandwich.
I go to this superb restaurant often since I enjoy the good mood that is unique to this restaurant. The staff is extremely cordial and experienced. The service is extremely fast. Needless to say, the food they cook is great. I have been there many times and I was always satisfied. The cost is reasobable. I highly recommend this restaurant to to everybody.
Can’t say enough great things about the food options at this location. Friendly service every time. Thank you Ashley for answering questions and taking good care of me! Will definitely be back because of you!
Love this place! I stumbled upon this place why looking for something different to eat. The concept is great, the food tasted good, the staff was fun and courteous. I definitely recommend going to this place if youre looking for a decent place to eat lunch or dinner. Its fast food but its fresh and a lot better than walking into a greasy burger joint.
Been here several times, always tasty and fresh. There tomato basil soup is heavenly. The bacon they use on their sandwiches is wonderfully smokey. My only complaint is that they go light on dressing with their salads, but if you ask for extra theyll give you some.
The service is fantastic! The food is so healthy and delicious! Our meal came with a chocolate covered strawberry for dessert. The infused drinks are yummy. The dessert bars are to die for delicious. Theres plenty of seating inside and some outside. A++++
First time here and really liked it. I had the clam chowder and my wife had a protein bowl with mushroom soup. The soup was hot and the chowder loaded with clams. They added bacon to it and I added hot sauce. Perfect for a fall night. My wife was right again.
This place is awesome!!!We tried this place last night for the first time...doordash delivery.The food was great...everything was super delicious...the presentation and labeling was very thoughtful and well organized and the chocolate covered strawberry was a very nice touch...very classy!!!
The sandwiches and soups are delicious, and for dessert, the crème brulée is fantastic. This is a great alternative to Panera.
Zupas really is just the best place for lunch ever! The soups range from very high calorie, to less than 100 calories per serving but they all taste amazing! I could eat lunch here everyday and never get sick of it because the selection is huge. Great job everybody that works there, you are all so nice and friendly everyday I really appreciate what great service you provide. Bravo!
Slowest service ever and nothing had to be cooked. There are no customers in the restaurant and about 5 employees working. Ordered ahead for pickup at 8 and didn’t get our order until 8:15. Got home and my order was wrong 😩 Ordered a turkey bacon avocado sandwich with no honey mustard. My sandwich came with only, Turkey, tomato, and honey mustard. How is it a turkey bacon avocado sandwich without the bacon and avocado 🤷♀️ Will not be returning.
4th time weve eaten at a Zupas in a couple months. Tried multiple soups, salads and a sandwich. Everything has been excellent so far.
Definitely one of my top places to eat. The upper management is always nice and maybe 1 or 2 girls has a resting b***h face which is off putting but fine.Food is always great and fresh, decently priced for soup and sandwich, can be pricey if you add all the sides and desserts.
Love the food. Super high quality. I’ve had almost everything on the menu and haven’t found one miss. Wish the service was a bit faster but overall this is a great spot for lunch.
The food was very good. The prices are on the higher side. Food is fresh. The staff is nice to an extent. It looks like you dont get a lot, but it is surprisingly filling. My one disappointment was the soups I bought was almost 3/4 full. Pricey, but not a full container.
I seriously love this place. The food is simple yet amazing tasting. You can never go wrong with soup, and this is the perfect place to go for a quick bite, but believe me you never walk out feeling hungry, and not to mention the desserts and the lemonades.
Fast, sleek, friendly, and tasty. Im a big fan of soups and since becoming vegetarian I have not had many chain restaurants satisfy the soup itch. Zupas is the way to go. I especially love the consumer-focused considerations, like infused water beverage options and recharging station. Ill be coming here again for sure.
Customer Service is amazing!! Daniella is the absolute best. The food is amazing as well!!
I really liked their options and my meal was great! I got their Thai chicken salad and lobster bisque. Both very good. A great variety of flavorful and healthy options.
We came to this place for a meeting. This spot was recommended to us by a friend. Well, it was a winning. The staff were very polite and we had an excellent feeling. The meal was yummy. We loved this place very much and we shall absolutely come back again. We recommend this place to all.
I was the first person in line and ordered two pick-two combos. My sandwich order was fine and I moved to the soup section. In the meantime, the line had grown. I waited to place my soup order, and waited, and waited. Twelve, yes I counted, minutes later, a new person suddenly showed up and took my soup order. Then, moved to the register. A third person suddenly showed up from the back and took my money. Total time in line was 17 minutes, and I was the first one in line. Wont be going back.
Got 3 combos, soups salads and paninis are all flavorful and great portions, black berry basil drink was smooth and refreshing..everything was delicious...love the pumpkin spice creme brulee and the complimentary chocolate dipped strawberries to top it off!!!))) Definitely coming back!!
The food was good but honestly $40.00 for 2 people to eat is excessive. A sandwich and soup plus a drink eat is way to much money. Ill never go back. The sandwich was small also.
This place is so good. So many different options and everything is super fresh organic ingredients. Many healthy options too. I think my favorite part is how many different unique creations are on the menu. This is definitely an awesome modern twist on a traditional deli.
Bright and shiney and clean on the inside but not all that impressed with the salads. When you pay $8 bucks for a large salad you want a large salad. Ordered a large Strawberry Harvest salad. The girl assembling my salad counted out 4 THINLY sliced strawberries, counted out 8 dried cranberries and so on for everything else. She was very careful about it to. My wife got a small salad and they were pretty much the same size in volume. The bottom line to me is that the large salad is not worth the extra money....go small and save your money because thats what your going to get anyways.Very disappointing.
Digital touch screen menu is buggy and couldnt complete order. No one answered drive up window to help me. I went somewhere else for lunch.No incentive to return.
Brisket sandwich is so awesome and the strawberries are an awesome touch
I really enjoy their salads and soup much more than Panera. The choc covered strawberry in the combo meal is a nice treat.The different flavored ice tea available is good. My fav is still making the old fashioned Arnold Palmer using any of the teas. I like the mango tea the best.
Superb service and great food. I took an elderly friend and she was very impressed! From the simple would you like to taste it before ordering to suggestions to helping me when I didnt know where to go! Will be back.
Cafe Zupas is my favorite lunch place. It doesn’t matter what on the menu you order you’re going to get delicious food. They never disappoint & the staff is so friendly!
Food and service was excellent, the atmosphere was very nice and pleasant however we felt that the prices were a little bit high. I would definitely go again especially for a special occasion. The variety of food was exceptional all fresh too!
Best salads and soups plus free chocolate strawberry and bread roll. Better than zoups imo. Wish there were more locations closer to southwest suburbs. Drove all the way to Bloomingdale from Joliet.
I always get a great experience here! The food is definitely on the expensive side but compared to Panera, this is far better imo
This is my go-to for salads/sandwiches/soups! Love this place! Service is wonderful and the food is exceptional! Very healthy, fresh options! With the Combo you also get a chocolate covered strawberry- who doesn’t love that!
Good soup and salad combinations. Always more than couple of soups you want to try. Lots off salads withe the options to customize. There homemade drinks are taaty too, better than soda options. Though if you go late, they might be empty. And then add the chocolate covered strawberry for desert.
Very friendly staff! Great soup!!! Great desserts!!! Will def come back!
I never write reviews about places but Im moved to write this because Im really hoping the management at Cafe Zupas in Bloomingdale, IL might see this. Today was my first time going. I ordered a sandwich and soup. The sandwich was really good, however my soup was almost cold. The reason why I did not mention anything about the soup being cold was because of the way one of your employees named Crystal dealt with a gentleman who was right in front of me while paying for my meal. He told Crystal his soup was cold and she took his soup away. When she came back, very abruptly she said, Sorry sir, thats as warm as its going to get. And walked away. I was AMAZED how rude she was to him. When I realized my soup was cold too, I remembered how she was to him and didnt feel comfortable approaching anyone about it. I will say that will not be returning to cafe Zupas again.
I LOVE this place. Its like Panera Bread, only its actually good!! Their soups are AMAZING and their sandwiches are great too. I love that they have seasonal soups and sandwiches so theres always something new to try!! I HIGHLY recommend going here!!
Café Zupas is like a Michelin Star version of Panera. If Zupas manages to keep their ingredients and methods the same, they have plenty of potential and no shortage of referrals (especially from me).Great selection of paninis and soups. Other sandwiches are good, not great, and I cannot comment on the salads... yet.The homemade drinks are phenomenal. They really do taste like theyre made of the simple ingredients on the label.
I had the Maui salad along with the vegetable chowder soup. Both were very good and i really loved the hugh chocolate covered strawberry that came with each order. BUT.... the music was so load you could barely hear the person talking the order. Tried to find a quite corner away from the crowd and noise.
This place is really good. We stumbled on it with a quick search for soup. I was a bit intimidated with the menu. Once I understood the process, it was a home run. My wife and I have been back 3 times in a week. It will be our lunch spot for a while, with so many options to choose from.
Service is outstanding. Food is excellent. Has good gluten-free options. I like everything about this place. Have been here 4 times since the first visit. Great for dates. Great for family dinners.
Too expensive..prices not explained...till time to pay gr at food...
Consistently good food and friendly service. Its priced similar to Panera, but a very different mix of flavors and desserts. The chocolate-dipped strawberry is a family favorite.
Amazing food! Try 2 combo is prefect - pick from a whole ciabatte bread sandwich, half soup, or half salad. If you are doing a single item, soups are cheaper. Mostly everything is made fresh in house. Walk-in and they greet you with their paper menu. Wish they had hand sanitizer available or sample soups while you wait in their typically busy line. You order your sandwich and salad at the first counter then slide over to the soups which you can taste. This typically holds up the line with everyone wanting to try their 10 different soups. My favorite is the Roasted Red Pepper & Lobster!!! Im not to excited about their cold piece of bread they give you with the soup, wish they would warm it up. Plus soup toppings are extra like croutons; they put them right in the soup which get soggy by the time you start eating your soup. After picking your soup, you can choose one of their amazing looking deserts but their free chocolate covered strawberry its usually enough for me. Remember what you ordered because youll need to let them know by the register so they can gather it on your tray and charge you. I highly recommend you try one of their drink infusions, my absolute favorite is the strawberryorange......wow!!!!!! Seating is extremely tight, chairs are noisy, just moving them a tad. They have USB and wall outlets available at the high chair bar style seating by the bathrooms. They also have window blinds in case the sun blazes on your table (cant believe some places dont have this on their windows). Also leave your tray on the table, they will swing by and pick it up. Overall I eat here often, on my own, with my family (includes 2 little ones), and with friends. I highly recommend it!!!
Love the selection of freshly made salads and selection of soups! And also being able to make your own with fresh ingredients always available. Love it! Mmmm...perfect lunch spot.
This was our first time trying this place in let me tell u it was absolutely amazing!!!! The young lady that was doin the drive thru was awesome and very nice 👌Also they gave us a delicious chocolate strawberry 🍓 we definitely recommend and will definitely be back!!!!
I tried this place for the first time and I continue to go back often! They have the best sandwiches soups and salads that you will ever taste. The quality is very fresh and worth every penny
My experience was with Gabrielle drive through very polite very patient i screwed up my order and she made sure it came out right i also tried to tip her she wouldnt take it i will be back because i love people like her patients smiles and i felt welcomed those are things i love coming to fast food great job Gabrielle keep up good work you rock . this is for schumburg location
Fast , friendly, well-organized...thats what keeps things moving here. You get your fresh food more quickly. Menu is similar to Panera, just faster and costs less. I highly recommend this place if you like Panera, but dont have the time.
No complaints about the food. Its good. And the fact you get a chocolate cover strawberry for dessert is pretty awesome. Its just confusing to order and has crowded seating. Otherwise, bueno!
Very keto friendly!! Absolutely love knowing theres a place that caters very well to my dietary needs.
Salad - good. Soup - good. Sammiches - good. Service (courtesy) is amazing for the type of restaurant it is. They also have an army of people working there at lunch - which is nice to see in this age of keeping things as minimally staffed as possible.
I ordered a large takeout order of Chicken Ench chilli soup, I called to complain regarding the amout that was in the container I was told that the large was 8oz of soup ! But I received 7 oz of broth and 1 oz of the chicken and vegetables . Not happy !
We walked in to a large menu that has A LOT listed on it and very challenging to see. I asked for a paper menu and they said they didnt have one. They only filled the small soup bowl up barley 3/4 the way. It seems odd to not actually fill the soup bowl up. Soup was ok. The lady behind the counter seemed annoyed and was not very pleasant.
Large selection of soups ,salads , and sandwiches so be prepared to know what you want before getting in line. The try 2 combo is the way to go for $9.39 which if you pick a sandwich(full size) and salad(smaller but adequate size)you will be full. Combo includes a chocolate covered strawberry and small roll. I had the HONEY CILANTRO CARNITAS sandwich and the MANGOBERRY salad. totally pleased.
Food was DELICIOUS! AND THEY GIVE U A FREE CHOCOLATE COVERED STRAWBERRY! sooooo good. We had the crab & avacado sandwich, chicken pesto sandwich, and lobster soup. They have infused water that was delicious! You have to try it!
I went into this store around 8:30 to get some food for my girlfriend (whos a vegetarian). I ordered an Asian citrus chicken salad as part of the pick two, but made sure to ask for tofu instead of chicken because as previously stated shes vegetarian. The lady making the food nodded, so i assumed she heard me. Then i went to order an ultimate grilled cheese but the lady said to hold on. I walk down to the register and sitting there is just the salad, so i walk back to the original lady and ask for the grilled chesse. Finally im about to pay and the total came to $16, which seemed far off, but Ive never ordered there. I get home and she starts to eat the salad she notices the tofu was actually chicken. She had to pick it all out. Then i find out the pick two shouldve been $10. Not satisfied.
They offer a wide selection of soups, salads, sandwiches and lots of desserts. They also have unique drinks that are really good. The ambiance of the place is very bright, clean and great for lunch and dinner.
Its early days for this Panera meets Protein Bar fast-casual restaurant in the notorious Bloomingdale-Carol Stream food desert...BUT...I like what Im seeing so far. Service is a bit slow in week one and staff look a bit flustered, but the menu is solid for the area and you can definitely tell a lot of effort has been put in by ownership in launching this site. The line was long and it seems like locals are genuinely excited about getting a premium fast casual chain in what has long been a restaurant graveyard for gourmet and chain restaurants alike.Menu is very health focused: think Panera meets Protein Bar meets Zoup. I got a sandwich and a salad, but they also have quino protein bowls that look interesting.Bottom line: if youre anywhere but Carol Stream-Bloomingdale, you might want to hit up another fast causal spot, but for this infamously vacant culinary wasteland, its a welcome edition and should thrive where others have failed. I give these guys credit for opening here and trying to bring a more cosmopolitan chain to a very uncosmopolitan town.
Amazing, fresh, healthy, delicious, beautiful, affordable!!! You get a chocolate covered strawberry and baguette with your lunch!!! Absolutely the best!!! Staff is bright, cheerful and service-oriented! Thank you Zupas for coming to town!!
Great food, friendly staff; very disorganized behind the counter. 10-12 people running but nothing much getting done (sandwich/salad station). Been there for at least 10 visits since opened without much change in their process. Friendly Suggestion: At the 1st soup/sandwich station, why not jot down the customer first name and order to pass along thru all stations thru to the register. Instead you are asked multiple times at each station what your order is and then again a final time at the register - uugggghh. for dine-in, start a food tray and paper with the customer name/order. For carryout either start a bag or order ticket with customer name/order - now keep it moving down thru the stations until the register. No repeats and no mess-ups!
Straight-up, youre body will feel sooo good after eating here. Fresh ingredients, versatile menu & great service. Am a customer for as long as Cafe Zupas is around.
This a great place for tasty and healthy eating. I go there all the time after the gym to get food as its close by. And there is fresh grown food there everyday for the freshest produce.
Great soup and sandwich variety with some healthy drinks instead of only sodas. Good service, but too expensive for me, got two half sandwiches and half bowls of soup for $28, but the soup and sandwich was good.
1st visit and wont be the last. Fresh and tasty salad and excellent soup. Bright and clean. They even give you a chocolate covered strawberry!
Wide selection of homemade Soup and sandwiches each meal comes w hand dipped chocolate covered strawberry. You can taste each soup a must try ....a little on pricey side
I ordered the mushroom bisque. The picture has 6-8 mushroom sliced on the top which led me to believe that there were more mushrooms in the soup itself. My large soup had 2 small pieces of mushroom.FALSE ADVERTISING!
Love love love their food & their staff. Theyre always super sweet. & theyre adding a drive-thru!
The staff was excellent as was the food. We both had a soup and sandwich. Really liked that the food for eating in was on plates and in bowls. We would definitely eat here again.
Food was good however my experience was not so good. The staff was flustered and one lady with blonde hair was rude! I just asked for a few extra cucumbers...Advice to management please work to train your staff! I prob wont visit the Bloomingdale location for a while but will check out the Schaumburg one.
Overall, its a great experience. The aesthetic is nice, fairly clean, with attentive staff. Food prices are a bit high, but in this economy, Im not blaming anyone for that.
This place is great because not only is their food healthy, but they have a wide variety to choose from. I love the complimentary chocolate covered strawberry when you make a purchase.
This place is amazing! Great food...super friendly and professional staff...uber clean...and reasonably priced. I may never cook again. The strawberry chicken salad is to die for!
Always order from them when i’m in town. Try the vegetarian it is seriously one of the best sandwiches i have ever had.
I ordered the crab avocado sandwich and mangoberry salad. The salad was good but the sandwich have no taste. My husband ordered clam chowder and cuban sandwich. The soup was too watery and not enought potato and clams and tbe cuban sandwich is just okay.
I love their food and the small touches like the chocolate covered strawberries and the bread and butter. Their price is on a high end though for a fast food.
Excellent Food! Fresh lettuces and veggies. Then enjoyed a wonderful creamy mushroom soup. Bright. Clean. Friendly and Helpful Staff.
Great place for fast comfort food! Very nice staff. A little expensive, but Id rather pay more for quality over other fast food chains.
Definitely a lunch place, along the lines of Panera but with a greater variety of sandwiches, soups and salads. The Pomegranate coconut water green tea is a great drink and all the soups come with a belgian chocolate dipped strawberry!
Great sandwiches and Excellent Soup!!!I cant give it 5 stars as its a sandwich place not a restaurant, like Wild Fire.
Good soups, sandwiches and salads. Plus you get a chocolate covered strawberry with your order. Infusion drinks are also so good.
Yo this place lit af! They got sandwiches, soups, salads and bread and a little treat lmao dont mean to ruin it but its a chocolate strawberry. If this place was an anime I would low key enjoy anime. Anyway, enjoy!
Ordered a soup sandwich and a large salad cost $36 and the portion was way under sized no chicken in the salad maybe one or two pieces half an egg very unsatisfied.
Would have given a 5 star but they messed up my order and made me wait too long to fix my order.
Very cool spot for soup and a sando.
Loved the food. Good atmosphere, friendly workers.
$9.65 for a bowl of soup and a small fountain drink. Sit along the windows of the restaurant if you happen to be portly.The tables and chairs in the middle of the restaurant are placed so close together it’s hard to make your way through.
Excellent clean food with a great menu. Would like to see more chicken or fish options. Their soup rocks!
Very tasty food and friendly staff. I ate here for the first time and wasnt sure what to expect, my sandwich and soup were delicious, good prices for quality food!
Upscale Panera, cant go wrong with any of their selections. The AC was broken today & it felt like it was 65 😁 but the chocolate covered strawberries made the day.
This is a soup and sandwich kitchen. A little cheaper than Panera if you get the you pick two. More selection. Lobster bisque soup year round.
Million dollar bars are just like grandma used to make. Soups are tasty and wholesome. Sandwiches are delish. Salads can be made to order.
Food was good, but they are put so small portions, like in salad - 3 pieces of corn, not 4 not 5, must be 3! Count everything so severamente....just don’t like when people do it
The food is soooo good. Everything is good but I love the strawberry harvest salad.
Clean ! Fresh ! Friendly Great Bloomingdale Location Friendly Manager with Kool Hair ! 2-23-21 12:49:13 PM
Great service! And amazing food! Ita a must try and will be coming back for more. I had the chicken tortilla chilli soup amd chicken pesto panini which was really good.
Im in love with this place. The strawberry champagne dressing is to die for and the half off desserts before closing are delicious diet killers.
Wide variety of healthy choices! They make the food fresh. They give you a strawberry dipped in chocolate 😁 And they are closed on Sundays!
Good food a bit pricy.
Great food, service and price! Even my picky son found something he liked. The chocolate covered strawberry is a great bonus!!
There has been multiple times where they completely screw up are order, DONT BUY ONLINE FOR CURBSIDE
Nasty stuff here didn’t even taste goodThey got my order wrong twice I dumped everythingOut here don’t bother coming here
Great place to get good quality and healthy food. Love that you get a chocolate covered strawberry 🍓 with your meal!
I order an Italian Sub Sandwich for a lunch on run. The Bread, was thick. The meat was thin. Overpriced, for what I got. Knowing what I know now, should have gone to Jersey Mikes or Jimmys.
Decent quality food with lots of healthy options. Service is friendly, but they have a script and try to push you to buy more.
This place is pretty good quality, the prices are a bit high and the portions are pretty average at best. Overall, I really like it here, the people are always nice too.
The food rocks in my opinion I prefer this place over Panera Bread.
I enjoy the food. Last time I got the tofu sandwich. Did not like it personally.
The food is excellent. Restaurants and employees are wonderful. Serving and topping sizes are ridiculously small.
This place is great. Fresh food and clean restaurant. Ive been trying something new on the menu each time I go and havent been disappointed yet.
One of our favorite spots for a quick warm bite. The red pepper lobster bisque is delicious
Cant wait for the drivethru. Food is soooo good. Staff are awesome.
Their sandwich and salad is pretty good. Liked that chocolate strawberry that comes with the combo
Phenomenal food, friendly service, great prices
Had to wait a long time for our sandwich. By then our soup was cold. And all they said was we can give you a free desert
Love their veggie soup and their salads they are delicious all their food is full of flavor !!! Will definitely go back
First time coming here the chicken cobb salad was super good!! Can’t wait to try more items on the menu.
Impressed. Clean restaurant with friendly and imformative staff. I predict this establishment will succeed with continued dedication to providing the freshest menu options and with ideas that are above-the-rest.
Great food, good prices! I recommend the red pepper lobster soup!!
I get their tomato soup very often it is sooo good! Service can be a little different depending who is there but usually great!
I love their sandwiches and soups. The employees are very helpful and nice and greet you when you come in the door.
Love their choice of salads and soups! Everything is very fresh and delish!

2022-02-12Such a great, healthy alternative to typical fast food places! Everything is always fresh and delicious! The portions are huge! The variety is terrific! I absolutely love this place! I always get the sandwich and salad combo for about $10, plus you get a chocolate dipped strawberry and a fresh roll with with. Its more than enough to fill you up! I hope they open more locations all over the Chicagoland area!

2021-12-12Who does not love chocolate strawberries??? There is something for everyone. I had a chickpea soup and girls enjoyed tomato soup and a chicken salad!! Total win with the strawberries at the end or the beginning does it really matter? Ok second time tried the mushroom bisque OMG soup which was WOW!! So GOOD! The vegetarian sandwich with tofu was AMAZING!! I added some truffle hot sauce to take up a few extra notches and did not disappoint!!

2021-12-02Lol. Welp. Not the Cafe Zupas it used to be. My “steak and cheese sandwich” is paper thin and bite-sized with maybe a few pieces of meat. The chicken enchilada “chili” is practically water/broth. Don’t be cheap/cut corners Cafe Zupas, cmon. What is this???? Lol????

2022-07-15Had an excellent experience at Cafe Zupas this evening. The whole staff was friendly and helpful from the second we walked in until the moment we left. Fernando in particular was an awesome cashier and pleasant to talk to while we waited for our food. We will back back again just because of him!

2022-04-11My wife had a salad that was hard to eat due to the Spinach having the stems on the leafs. We both had a SMALL bowl of soup, and I had a sandwich, both bowls of soup were just slightly warm. For $30 plus dollars, Id expect a little more.
Review №6
2022-04-06A much better alternative to Panera and the like. Healthy, fresh, and with bigger portion sizes at a lower price. I got a pick two and got a bigger sandwich and salad than a full portion size at Panera. Very clean and modern inside. Convenient pickup counter.

2022-06-27I wasn’t able to place an online order and they sent me to the restaurant because I USED TO love this restaurant so I went. And I got there and it was closed. Tried to call them and apparently their call center does not communicate with the store. All reps from call center and restaurant were rude. Refused to take accountability. F this restaurant

2021-04-29Very good quick lunch! Nice that they give you a complimentary chocolate covered strawberry! Had the leek soup which is limited time so if you havent tried it you might want to before its gone!

2021-01-14This is the second time in the past month work has ordered from here and again there’s hardly anything but leaves in my order. It’s missing bacon, egg and has three slices of cucumber and hardly any steak. If you want to stay in business you need to make sure your customers are happy and satisfied. I’m neither and won’t be ordering from here again.
