46-520 WASHINGTON STREET
LA QUINTA
Originally established in 1995, this spot is best known for its supreme bread offerings. There are more than 30 varieties to choose from (including gluten-free options), all handmade and stone ground on the premises each day. As such, the sandwiches are stellar, as are the baked goods and salads. With additional locations in Palm Springs and Rancho Mirage, Apsen Mills is a true desert stalwart.
