Lydia A.

Overall brunch here was amazing! It's super cute inside and it's a scratch kitchen. I'm normally not a sweets person for breakfast but the lemon ricotta pancakes were incredible. Super soft and bright. We also got the oeufs en cocette. It's super unique, and the only thing I wished was that it was larger. We were eating outside and there was a cockroach on the ground, which was also a negative. But overall the food was excellent!

Let me start off by saying that the food and drinks here were really good. The patio is so cute and I loved all the things in the market! Very cute set up. The reason I gave a 3 is based on our experience. I made a reservation for 8 people at 2:30pm on Sunday. I made the reservation 3 weeks in advance. We noticed a few days before our lunch that the closing time was listed as 3pm so we called to confirm that our brunch for 8 people was still fine for 2:30 since they take reservations till 2:45. We were reassured it was totally fine. We arrived for brunch and were sat at 2:38pm. Nearly the moment we sat down we were asked to place our food orders as the kitchen closed at 3. We asked if we can still order drinks after 3 and the bartender was kind enough to do so. We felt like we were being rushed out which was a disappointment since it was a birthday brunch and we didn't even get to do the birthday dessert. The business should stop taking reservations at 2pm.

Classic Breakfast

We were seated right away for a Friday brunch. I ordered the Classic Breakfast, and it was a 10/10. It tasted fresh and elevated for breakfast food. Our server was sweet and attentive. Highly recommend!

Steak and eggs
Donna B.

What a cute restaurant! It is in an adorable courtyard with other stores there as well. They have such a beautiful outdoor patio and it's such a great space. Inside there's a little market selling cute items. I had the steak and eggs and it was delicious! I also had a sweet potato pancake à la cart. Also excellent my friend had a breakfast scramble and a couple of lattes and a pastry. Get there early as it fills up pretty quickly, especially on a Sunday. We got there right when they opened. I highly recommend this is an adorable brunch spot. Service was excellent.

Side patio

01/10/2026 My friend saw this place on Instagram and sent it to me. It looked really cute, but what really got me was the Sweet Potato Pancakes. So we made a reservation for Friday 9:00AM. It's located in a shopping plaza called The Frederick. It already looks so cute on the exterior with the green patio furniture and large wooden double doors. You enter through their market first which had cute merchandise, gifts, and kitchen things, as well as a coffee bar with pastries. There was a host stand right where the market meets the main dining area. FOOD I got the Sweet Potato Pancakes and Two Eggs to Order for some protein. My friend got the Yeast Raised Waffle and scrambled eggs as well. They had some seasonal coffee and matcha drinks, but we didn't try any, as we were planning to go somewhere else afterward for caffeine. The pancakes barely had a hint of sweetness, which surprised me since it didn't come with syrup or any sweetener. The whipped peach butter was pretty good, but I'm not a butter on pancakes kind of gal. My friend did not like the texture of her waffle. It was dry and not chewy - maybe that's just how yeast raised waffles are? She did say the waffle, lemon mascarpone, and fresh strawberry paired nicely together. The scrambled eggs were cooked perfectly. Overall, I liked the market and aesthetic of the entire place, but the food was underwhelming. I would give it 3.5/5 stars. Also, there was plenty of parking in the back when we got there at 9AM, but it was full when we left around 10:30AM. We parked in the first row, and it was difficult getting out. My car is small, but I still feel like there wasn't enough room to back out.

Inside

Vibes - check. Aesthetics - check. Music - check. Service - check check. Food - check check check. This spot honestly has everything you'd want in a relaxed breakfast/brunch/lunch setting. Beautiful inside decor, ample outside and inside seating. The staff are so welcoming and friendly, and the food was delicious! Definitely lots of French inspired plates with plenty of butter, garlic, and herbs. They have a cute cafe and shop up front, and with it nestled in The Fred on Missouri, the mood can't be beat as you watch people come and go with their dogs in tow outside.

My family and I had an absolutely fun time at Lydia's. I highly recommend that everyone make reservations in advance for larger parties. Do show up expecting a wait time this place gets busy during brunch. We found parking rather quickly, but the parking area is a bit small, so expect it to fill up fast. The restaurant itself has a lot of cute decor, and the added market and coffee shop inside are a nice bonus. Emily was our server, and she truly took the time to make our party feel special. She made some great recommendations, including the waffles and chicken, which we loved. She really took the time with our party of seven and made our first experience here memorable. Some additional menu highlights: The Rosemary fries, Strawberry matcha (ask for it half sweetened) and avocado ranch. Delish! We will definitely be back, Lydia!

BLT Sandwich
Carly W.

This is is upscale brunch spot was perfect for a recent girl's get-together. There was both inside and outside seating, they were easy to work with to set up a table for 10. The menu had the perfect amount of options and the ingredients were so fresh. Our waitress so so patient and timely, she went above and beyond for our party. The cocktails are amazing and so are their coffees. I opted for a strawberry Matcha this time and I did not disappoint. I highly recommend the BLT, the chipotle aioli sauce on it was to die for!

Classic Double Smash Burger
Wendie W.

My book club and I came here for our monthly meet up and I loved it! Such a cute and dainty restaurant in a location that has a warm and welcoming vibe. We had a bit of a wait, so we were able to roam around the surrounding shops, which made the wait time fly by. The service was great despite it being busy (we went on a Sunday) and the smash burger was so good! I added an egg and it was the best kind of savory. The macchiato was also a traditional size macchiato and strong. My fav! I would absolutely come back here.

february strawberry cold foam and matcha
Theresa S.

Stopped by for some breakfast with a friend. Ample parking, with lots of shops to look at as well. Enjoyed our matcha drinks with my oeufs en cocotte which tasted amazing, full of flavor. Sourdough toast tasted fresh. Our server(s) were very sweet and checked on us a few times. They opened the doors as well which allowed a nice breeze to come through, so it wasn't loud at all inside, with all the conversations. Will definitely come back!

Step into a little slice of France right here in town! This charming spot radiates French café vibes, with cozy seating, beautiful décor, and a delightful little market at the entrance perfect for browsing while you wait for your table. Parking is convenient in the back, though fair warning, it shares space with neighboring businesses, so weekends can get a bit busy (but the other shops are 100% worth a peek too! You can get cookies, or coffee, or browse through unique clothing stores before/after your meal.) Food was delicious. I'm a vegetarian, and they kindly swapped avocado in for meat, such a thoughtful touch. Paired my breakfast with a cup of ginger-mint tea that was perfect. Service was friendly and attentive, making the experience all the more enjoyable. My only quibble was that noise can pick up a bit, which I guess is the price you pay for the lively energy of a popular weekend spot. Prices are not cheap, but honestly, nothing outrageous for the quality and experience you're getting!

Sweet potato pancakes
Ashley P.

Came here after a Pilates class with a friend to catch up and so glad we chose this place! We made a reservation for noon which might not have been necessary on any other day, but with the rain and patio unable to be used, it definitely was helpful in getting us seated quickly. On a cool fall/winter day, the outside would definitely be the way to go! The service was great! The waiters were attentive and also gave us time to eat and talk. We never felt rushed or like we were forgotten. As for the food... please get the sweet potato pancakes while they are in season!!! It was so good! I was torn between getting something sweet or savory. Luckily for me, my friend is also a Yelper and was down to get one of each and share. The oeufs... delicious! If you're very hungry, not sure if the portion size would fill you. But to share, and with the pancakes being quite large, ordering these two to share was perfect! Will definitely be here again before those pancakes are gone!

Fried chicken sandwich and BLT
Jaslean A.

Finally had a chance to come here and it did not disappoint!!! The ambiance of Lydia's is a DREAM!! Totally picturesque with the adorable aesthetics and marketplace! The bar top is stunning I adore the vibes in here! Service was great I believe our waitress name was Julianne she was kind and efficient! I loved my iced cardamom rose latte they have an awesome coffee selection! My chicken sandwhich was good BUT the breaded part fell off the chicken completely which was a bummer :/ otherwise the taste was good! I hope they bring back the girl lunch/dinner concept!! food: 4/5 Ambiance: 5/5 Service: 5/5 !!!

Afterwards I hopped into Macys nearby to be inside the AC and could check the map for "cold drinks" near me. This spot popped up just around the corner. I give it a 4 stars. I drink a lot of coffee drinks from various coffee shops, and for comparison this wasn't amazing but good enough. It hit my requirements- nearby, COLD, slightly sweet, decent coffee flavor. The drink description says "vanilla cold foam" and this was not cold foam. I saw that it was steamed milk and turned to foam. Pretty much the opposite of cold foam. If they made their own cold foam this would have made the drink more unique. Could have been 5 stars if as described. Anyway, service was friendly and the small shop is cute. Gave me the hit of cold caffeine I was looking for.

Got it with oat milk and it was creamy, smooth, not too sweet, with a subtle nutty buttery flavor. Barista handed it to me which was sweet. I saw another barista like delivering to people sitting so that's always nice. Also grabbed the Miso Pecan Spelt Cookie Crispy, chewy, not too sweet.

They don't have bahn mi sandwiches like an older review mentioned but they do have ready made cold cut sandwiches and freshly made açaí bowls.

It wasn't too sweet, yet you can taste the pandan flavor and it was easy to drink. If you haven't had Vietnamese coffees before and you are in Arizona, looking for caffeine refill, I highly recommend you go check out Cafe Mollie. This place offers plenty of free parking spaces.

If I could give a place 10*s, Lux has more than earned the title…read more Cool space coffee shops are definitely a thing in Phoenix lately--but Lux was the "design-genius-with-a-latte-machine" long before coffee shops were even a thing here. I've been frequenting this architectural marvel for over 10 years. While so many new shops try to mimic this vibe, none of them are Lux. Lux is King! The 11-Year Flashback: I looked back at my review from 11 years ago when I docked them a star for the "nightmare parking." Back then, I was a "to-go" only person who never envisioned myself as a laptop-hipster hanging out. Well, times change! I'm bumping them up to 5 stars now. Maybe it's the new competition nearby or my better timing, but the parking is a breeze, and I've officially embraced the "comfy chair" lifestyle. The "Cheers" Factor: What really sets this place apart is the people. After a decade of visits, it truly feels like Cheers--where everybody knows my name! Getting to know the folks behind the counter makes every visit feel like coming home. The Sip of the Night: I shifted from my usual plain Cappuccino as my target drink to include in a review to feature their Espresso Martini. I went with a Reposado base instead of the typical vodka, and it was stellar. With two full bars in addition to the coffee and pastry bar, craft drinks truly abound here! (Note: they have an amazing cappuccino too) The Comfort Classics: You cannot leave without the food. My go-to favorites? The Tomato Soup with Grilled Cheese and the legendary Chocolate Chip or Red Velvet cookies. Return Factor: 100% I've been coming here for a decade, and it's still the gold standard. As I said in my review 11 years ago: "I see a book, comfy chair and cocktail in my future! Stumble home... Repeat." Still true today! #PHXCoffeeShopTour #1CupAtATime #LuxCentral #PhoenixOriginal #EspressoMartini #FlashbackReview
