Although located in the east part of metropolitan Phoenix area (Mesa), Crackers & Co. Café has been a popular destination spot for people from all corners of the valley since 1984. The whole concept of Crackers was founded on European owner’s heritage principle of “from scratch cooking”. Twenty-four years later, this principle still remains unchanged today. We take great pride in maintaining the high standards that make our food so outstanding and which have won much local acclaim, from both our clientele, food critics and local media alike.
The service is a personable and friendly one, complimenting the warm, rural Tuscan ambiance found once inside. This perfect combination of outstanding food and ambiance makes it a favorite for everyone of all ages . . . Crackers is for anyone who truly appreciates “food”.
The only drawback in coming to Cracker’s is that you’ll have to sharpen your decision-making skills. If you’re visiting for breakfast, you’ll have to choose from such offerings as omelets, Euro crepes, French toast, skillets, pancakes, Cracker’s own creations, light starters, or the traditional breakfast.
If you’re visiting for lunch, you’ll have an equal amount of work to do because you’ll have to choose from any of the made to order charbroiled gourmet burgers, meal size fresh salads, any of the made-to-order gourmet sandwiches, or one of the chef’s daily specials. But wait, you’re not done yet, you see, whenever you pick one of the gourmet sandwiches, it’s served with a complimentary cup of any one of six or more varieties of Cracker’s famous homemade soups. If only all of life’s problems where this fun to decide!
Think you’re done yet?
Nope. Now you’ll have to select from any one of the fresh, homemade desserts. For you see, Cracker’s has their very own in house baker, and as with everything else, desserts are still made under the founding principle....from scratch. Which one’s best? Oh, but how can one choose your favorite child? OK, since they’re not children, we’ll have to say they’re all unique in their own way, but if we had to pick the best of the best, it would be the Blackberry Cinnamon Brandied Bread Pudding. We invite you to come in and smell, feel and taste for yourself. Enjoy!
