Any place that's a Cosi, Panera, Potbelly, Five Guys, Chipotle (THE BEST), Ledo Pizza, Robeks (healthy type stuff), Noodles and Company is usually a good bet.
Using the link as a guide is a good bet because this way you can choose other cities in the area as you travel.

There are a few great places in Chinatown, if your kids like Asian food. They are cheap and use fresh ingredients. Another restaurant I really like is Bar Pilar
