Arizona Bread Company in Scottsdale is a well-established bakery and sandwich shop that locals rely on for fresh, made-to-order sandwiches, hearty soups, and consistently good bread. Positioned near Shea Boulevard, it’s a convenient stop for both quick takeout lunches and grab-and-go breakfasts, fitting seamlessly into the busy routines of nearby office workers, families, and longtime residents.

The atmosphere here is straightforward and efficient, tailored more for quick dining and takeout rather than leisurely sit-down meals. Expect a clean, casual setting where the focus is clearly on the food quality and freshness rather than elaborate décor or table service. This makes it a practical option for those looking to have a satisfying meal without a wait — especially during weekday lunch hours when the place fills up with regulars seeking reliable sandwiches and salads.

Arizona Bread Company’s menu highlights include half-sandwich combos paired with soups or salads, bringing a balanced meal that feels homemade rather than rushed. The sandwiches, from oven-roasted turkey to honey ham and chicken salad, are praised for their fresh ingredients and fresh-baked bread, which is clearly a cornerstone of the experience. Bread lovers appreciate the variety too, with options like nine-grain and orange cranberry often pre-ordered and ready for pickup. The Baumkuchen and açaí bowls add a lighter, slightly different option for breakfast or a mid-day boost.

Anyone who values consistently fresh bread and a no-fuss sandwich experience will find Arizona Bread Company hits the mark. It’s the kind of spot where you know exactly what you’re getting — steady quality, friendly staff, and solid portions without surprises. It fits perfectly into a local’s weekday meal rotation, especially when a fresh, filling lunch or a quick, familiar breakfast is the goal.

If you’re stopping by, mornings and lunchtime are prime times to find the freshest offerings. The staff tends to move efficiently but with a welcoming attitude, which makes repeat visits feel like walking into a familiar neighborhood spot rather than a purely transactional stop.

One of the best most fresh lunches in the Dale! Visit here for lunch at least once per week. Never had a bad experience yet. The sandwiches are delicious and the salads are fresh and massive. Staff is super friendly too! They also offer a punch card as well so after you purchase 10 items (sandwich or salad) you get free food/drinks. Don’t miss this place.

This is the most consistently good sandwich in Scottsdale. The prices are reasonable, the portions more than fair and the quality superb. I’ve been coming here for 20 years and have never noticed a dip in quality of the food or service. Highly recommended!!

I ordered this via doordash, but, wowww - amazing! Sandwich was huge and so tasty! Definitely will order again. I’m so glad that I didn’t listen to any negative reviews, which I honestly think could be BS.
