This is one of my favorite lunch places. I have never seen the Arrowhead Paradise Bakery when it's NOT a complete madhouse. Perhaps it's because there really aren't that many good places to get a sandwich in this neck of the woods. Who knows. The service line for this counter-style joint went out the door last week when I was there - but it's still worth the wait, I think. And somehow, the staff does their job well, and keep churning out happy customers.
I'm not a fan of soup, at all. It's just not my thang. BUT, their legendary Fire Roasted Tomato soup does weird things to me. It is heavenly. I crave it! I look forward to it the day before, get cranky if they don't have it for whatever reason, etc, etc. I usually order it with the turkey chipotle wrap - with it's chipotle raspberry cheese smear - is a tangy mix of spicy and sweet. And the cookies, while they seem like an afterthought of the tasty lunch, are just as good as you would think.
This is one of the few locations that is free-standing and NOT in a mall, so expect more room, nicer furniture, chairs, tables. Expect an uppity Arrowhead soccer mom / business casual crowd, and expect to wait 15 minutes to order.
