    Outdoor seating
    Gregory B.

    What a fun vibe. Comfy table seating and couches. If I was in school, this would be where I'd come to crash and study!!! Great looking pastries, including some insane donuts, but I stayed with my old school hot americano. Well made. Three outdoor tables and plenty of parking as it's in strip with a Safeway. Coffee and teas offered Service was friendly and conversational. My fav kinda place

    Blended coffee with oat milk and extra shot
    Nicole F.

    I have been a loyal customer since they opened (12-13 years ago?). I have never been disappointed by their blended coffee with whole milk. I love the atmosphere with fun local art and comfortable seating. The employees have always been friendly as well. A great local spot.

    I really loved this place. Great seating areas, comfy couch seats, lots of tables, friendly staff willing to adapt drinks to your liking. Definitely recommend stopping in :)

    Iced matcha with strawberry shortbread cold foam

    I did a strawberry shortbread cold foam on matcha. My server was so sweet, very lowkey quiet place I would love to come here to do work. Yummy drink good atmosphere

    Inside menu
    Nicole B.

    Super cool place. It's located in a strip mall setup in the same plaza as Safeway. Great coffee and tea options with lots of different flavors and syrups, many available as sugar free. The staff are very friendly. It's cozy inside, with local art featured on the walls for sale too. Would definitely recommend and hope to try a pastry next time.

    Black cat coffee house is my all time favorite local coffee shop. I've been going for years and Tanya (the owner) and her team do an amazing job at creating a good environment to study/hang out at. They have a wide assortment of coffees, a huge assortment of teas and other drinks, and numerous other pastries and food bites. I highly recommend the black cat bomb, which is my all time favorite, it's definitely a meal replacement imo but so worth it!

    I was in town early for a business meeting and searched for a place with WiFi, food and drink to work from for a couple of hours. Black Cat Coffee for the win! I ordered a breakfast sandwich and iced apricot tea. The staff was friendly and helpful, and there were other patrons reading the paper or books or on laptops also enjoying their time. The temperature was nice and cool. This was a Thursday morning and they were not that busy. Definitely recommend and I will be back the next time I have a meeting in town and arrive early!

    Cute place. Interesting decor. Old cartoons/ drawings on the wall. Pretty low lights going on in here. The young women at the counter was pleasant! I tried the Black Cat Bomber! Delicious. Coffee mixed with Peanut butter, Banana and Protein powder. Yummy. We popped in after breakfast for a pick me up. The drink is like a small meal considering the protein! Good job! I would for sure come back to try more!

    Absolutely love it! Mike and I love checking out local options for coffee or tea that aren't a chain. This place delivers with great service and a varied menu of coffee, tea, blended drinks, some pastries and comfortable seating! The music is not overwhelming and the atmosphere is inviting. Loved my black cat decaf beverage

    Burnt Mocha
    Brad W.

    Well..the staff was nice, but on this day the coffee for the hot mocha tasted burnt and continued to taste burnt before I tossed it half-way through. They also had no choice of milk and she forgot my muffin until I reminded her. The blueberry muffin was below par, lacking blueberries in most of the muffin. Bad luck for this black cat today.

    This place is a cute hole in the wall coffee shop in the Arcadia area. They have good specialty drinks and are fair with their prices.

    I went here nearly daily for years. Their day pass is a really good value, and the people that run…read morethe spot are insnanely nice. It's cool place to run into and meet people you probably never would be otherwise who likely play the same stuff as you. There's snacks for purchase inside, a subway in the other part of the building, a convenient store that has everything on the other side.. so really there is everything you could ever need. The lighting on the inside is cool, and the computers run everything, are in good condition. The only downside I ever ran into was that sometimes you need to hunt around for a working headset, but other than that . 10/10

    Genuinely just not a space for anything besides casual gameplay, the first thing I noticed…read moreimmediately were these plastic bumpers between each desk. Understandably they're there to keep everyone within their designated ~42 inch square but realistically there's no way to aim here, you will absolutely smack your mouse into the bumper if your normal sens exceeds 15cm/180. That math might sound kinda funky but they have a full 100% keyboard with a numpad, so you lose all that space in practice unless you curl up in a wildly unnatural position and rest the keyboard on the plastic bumpers but nothing I did even remotely made this place comfortable. It's as if they've never had anyone play a shooter here, or everyone who ever has had an eDPi of 12000 or higher. They aren't really equipped for MMOs either, every mouse in sight was a Razer Deathadder Essential, no Nagas or Scimitars or even a knockoff 12 button, so unless you're clicking your buttons or reaching to the = key naturally on a full sized keyboard you're crippled. I picked up a 5 hour session off the rip because my buddies in town and I only have one PC in my place, I couldn't even survive 30 minutes here before just giving up and deciding to watch him play, but even a guy who never gets to play, who really wants to play, couldn't survive more than an hour and a half of his five hours. Side note, we pushed in our chair to make space to walk through the aisle and the light rattle of the desk sent a PC for a whole bootloop back to BIOS. If you aren't desperate it's something, but don't come here for Overwatch or Valorant or CSGO or really any shooter.

    It was fine, but not much more…read more Heard good things so swung in for lunch and coffee. The shop was cute with lots of local art and event info on the walls. There was a wide range of people working and hanging out, which is always nice to see. The young woman behind the counter was of no help whatsoever in deciding what to try. We ended up getting a dirty chai and an iced coffee with some cream, a panini, and a bagel. When the coffees were up there was no marking which was which. I tried to ask but the barista vanished. The cook was scrolling on his phone and said he didn't know. We sorted out which was which, and they were both fine. The bagel was good and the cashew cream cheese was tasty. The panini took a long time, maybe because it was competing with TikTok for the cook's attention. It was... fine. Which is just how I felt about the whole place after leaving. If you're nearby and want a coffee, I'll always support a local shop over Starbucks. But not a place I'd go out of my way to try again.

    Strip Mall -- Midtown/7th St The Quick Sip: A clever,…read morehigh-design nod to Phoenix's roadside architecture with a surprisingly sophisticated coffee menu. The Vibe: Cozy, eclectic, and incredibly friendly. It has that rare neighborhood feel where you could easily lose track of time hanging out on the patio. The Order: Hot double-shot cappuccino with light milk. First Sip Reaction: Smooth, rich, and absolutely worth the 7th St traffic! Study-ability: 4/5 Finding a free table was easy, and the chairs are actually comfy. They have a great counter-height table equipped with outlets--perfect for getting some work done. Parking might not be as easy. The "X-Factor": The connection to Monsoon Market. The ability to grab a world-class espresso and then pop next door to the "coolest bodega in Phoenix" for natural wine or snacks is a total 1-2 punch. Final Verdict: Definitely a recurring stop on the tour. It transforms the 7th Street commute into a destination rather than just a drive. Return Factor: 60% (Solid odds for a repeat visit!) #PHXCoffeeShopTour #1CupAtATime
