Macy's Taste Bar, Minnetonka

Shopping can wear you out, and sometimes the only way to get your energy back is to sit down with a cup of coffee—and a sandwich, and a salad. Fortunately, Macy's Taste Bar Café has shoppers (and diners) covered. At this in-store quick-service stop, coffee drinks pair with gourmet grilled sandwiches and half-pound salads for a pick-me-up that's as delicious as it is fast and convenient.

But just because the cafe gets food out quick doesn't mean it skimps on the quality of the ingredients, though. Take the Mandarin chicken salad, for instance, which sees marinated chicken, applewood-smoked bacon, pea pods, mandarin oranges, and other fresh ingredients drizzled with toasted sesame dressing.
