To get here, there are parking lots nearby where you have to pay to park or street parking around the area. Inside, they have a nice setup with some seating and then an additional patio with more seating. Wifey and I ended up getting a spread consisting of the Sunny Burrito, Ham & Cheese Croissant, Lemon Bar, and a Strawberry Matcha. Everything we had was amazing and it was great fuel to start our day. All of the staff here are very friendly and welcoming.

Super cool spot in the middle of Phoenix that you can stop at after a flight in. Parking is a…read morelittle scarce but a lot of people come and go. The restaurant itself is small but they have a back lawn area with tables. Front service was quick and we got our food pretty fast too. Our food was good and we enjoyed the drinks. The *spicy Paloma was actually pretty spicy so I wouldn't recommend if you don't like it like that. The coffee cake was super dense also. Highly recommend coming here early and enjoying a nice breakfast/brunch. They close early and get packed so heads up! Beverages/Cocktails: *Spicy Paloma *honey & lavender iced espresso *banana bread iced latte Food: *cast iron baked egg *pork chile verde *sunny burrito

My son and I were waiting for someone at the airport and had some time to kill, so we decided to…read morecheck out Deseo Coffee Shack. There's a large parking lot, but I could see parking being a challenge during peak hours. The "shack" is charming and the interior is vibrant and inviting. Seating is limited inside but there's more outside. The staff was friendly and helpful. The menu had a variety of enticing options, but I went with the staff's recommendation of El Paisano sandwich and my son ordered the El Chicano sandwich. I also got an iced almond milk latte with honey and cinnamon powder and my son got an iced Americano. My El Paisano was very tasty. It usually comes with chorizo, but I requested it without. Without the chorizo, the only protein left is an egg, which isn't enough for me so I should have asked for an additional egg on my sandwich. My latte was solid. My son liked his sandwich and Americano as well. We enjoyed sitting outside, taking advantage of the lovely patio weather we had back in May. They have a complimentary water station which was a thoughtful touch.

Another stop on my coffee passport journey! I'll admit I was a little nervous after reading some of…read morethe reviews beforehand, but I ended up having a lovely experience. The coffee shop has plenty of seating available and an inviting atmosphere. It felt like the perfect place to settle in and get some work done, or sit back with a good book and enjoy a coffee for a while. The overall vibe was relaxed and welcoming. I ordered the Sweet Treat Latte with oat milk, and it was delicious. Something I would definitely order again. Overall, this was a great stop, and it's definitely a place I would return to in the future.

With a huge outdoor space including games, plenty of seating, and some cute shops, there's something for everyone and it's a great place to hangout. As someone who values plant-based options, I truly appreciated the care and inclusion on the menu. I tried the avocado toast, a vegan donut, and a dirty chai latte with oat milk. All delicious! I came for coffee in the morning and returned later for a First Friday event. This isn't just a coffee shop, it's a fun community space that cultivates connection. I'll be back soon!

I noticed the Honeycomb nearby when out on a lunch break with my daughter and decided to head over…read more They are located in The Hive which I best describe as a coop of local artists and such. Honeycomb is a walk up window with some great drink options and some food items. They have a nice patio with an amazing mural and even a cute little free library. We opted to take our drinks to go since it was already pretty hot out. There is some covered seating which is great, but I can imagine spending a good amount of time out here during cooler temps. Service was friendly and great. Our drinks were great.

Miss Lulu's Cafe has a full menu of coffee drinks to choose from. They also have a number of grab-n-go products like prepared sandwiches and yogurt. Near the register are many packaged pastries and snacks. I like coming to Miss Lulu's because they open late night hours for the night shift crew. I don't know where they get their Cinnamon Coffee Cake, but it is my favorite. I usually get an iced latte with my coffee cake. Miss Lulu's does have seasonal drinks around the holidays.

Some of my favorites were the lemon blueberry olive oil mini pastry, the berry crumble cake and the caramel macaroon. My son enjoyed the blueberry muffin for breakfast and although we were eating breakfast at The Coronado, the owners own both establishments, so we could bring the pastries to our table. I also left my breakfast at The Coronado to go back to Dark Hall because I learned they were going to have cinnamon rolls at 10am, which was in a few minutes! That roll was also amazing! Solid pastries and I can't wait to come back!

While I appreciated that it wasn't overly sweet, the plant-based milk separated, and the flavors didn't blend well.

On a fun note, I really loved the bathroom design, though the two mirrors facing each other gave it a bit of a creepy, unique vibe!

Songbird Coffee & Tea House is a cute coffee house in downtown Phoenix (more specifically near the…read moreRoosevelt Row Arts District) and the shop is located in a historic house built in 1904. Apparently the shop sources coffees and teas from local businesses. For example, coffees = Infusion Coffee Roasters in Tempe, loose leaf teas and chai = Maya Tea Company in Tucson, kombucha = Milly Moon Kombucha in Phoenix, and breakfast burritos = Lua Lua Catering. [Parking]: Mostly metered parking and I ended up parking few blocks away from the shop (plenty of metered parking spots near the intersection of E McKinley St & N 5th St). [Atmosphere]: Inside of this historic house, the wall features the work of local artists. The shop also has a cute outdoor patio area with tables. [Menu]: Apparently Matcha Latte is one of the more popular drinks here. The shop offers 12 black tea options, 9 green tea options, 8 herbal tea options, 4 white tea options, and 3 oolong tea options. *** Matcha Latte (16 oz, iced - $6.25): I was surprised that my drink was sugar free by default and I probably say yes when the staff had asked about adding sweetener. The drink was not as creamy as I thought and it was honestly a fairly mediocre drink. The drink also came with a paper straw. *** A great spot for a casual 1st date due to great vibe, but matcha latte just didn't hit the spot.
