Great music. Comfortable and open to requests to sign along. Very happy, cordial and comfortable place. Open twice per week, Tuesdays & Sundays for a few hours 6:30pm opens both days and only for a couple hours. Worth every minute. You're able to drink alcohol. Wine & beer. Cover charge when you do. Just getting started. I'd like to see them have more publicity. It's a small place next to domino's pizza on 51st & Northern. Family oriented.
Nice quaint shop. Great coffee with a musical motif. They do open mic on the two days a week they are open so it gets some nice atmosphere.
We've seen this cafe a few times and decided to stop by. The place was pretty empty, the only people there was the woman behind the counter, the 3 piece house band, and one guitarist who played a few songs. The two of us were the only paying customers. The green iced tea was good, and the service was good. We sat at a table opposite the band, and the chairs were extremely uncomfortable. We had to leave after an hour because of the uncomfortable chairs. The house band was ok, though their song selection was great, classic rock. They definitely had their volume set low enough that we could carry on a conversation. Very comfortable volume level. The guitarist who played several songs solo was very good. The art on the walls was interesting - I liked it. It was an open mic format, but each player had to pay $10 or buy $10 worth of food, which would be pretty easy as their prices were a bit high. Menu was pretty limited - mostly coffee, tea, smoothies, and a few different sandwiches. I can imagine going back at some point, but I think I may bring a cushion.
Nice, relaxed atmosphere for the open mic
Neat place, really don't like or understand the minimal hours but overall not a terrible experience
I loved this place! Great sound and friendly atmosphere.
Fantastic OPEN MIC..!! Great sound system. Awesome food. Amazing Art... GREAT PLACE FOR A GOOD TIME..!!
They have good coffee, comfortable atmosphere, Prices are very affordable
Finally got to visit this place. Currently only open 3 days a week for about 3 hours each of those days. Or was smaller inside than I expected and was expecting more lounge type seating with it being a coffee house with live music. We just had coffees and teas stop can't comment on any food they offer. Drinks were all good other than the green tea as it mainly tasted like water but that's always a risk with green tea. They seem to have some house musicians and people can sign up to do sets of 3 songs. Was kind of hard to talk at all as the music is loud and it is a compact space. Was interested and hope to see some expansion of times and offerings as things are getting more back to normal.
Great food, great music every Saturday and Wednesday night, with the house band and talented open mic sessions. Awesome sound system.

The drink was okay. I ordered a large drink but the size was way smaller than expected. In addition, the drink was relatively more expensive than other coffee shops, even more expensive than Starbucks. The cost of the drink was the main factor that I gave it 3 stars.
I have tried to visit multiple times but they never seen to be open even during posted temporary hours. No one ever answers the phone and there is no message just an answering machine. Did they close down??
Beautiful venue, kind staff, great drinks. Went for an open mic night. It was a full cross and the music wasn't awesome but it was still a nice experience.
This place was great! The service was EXCELLENT! And the drinks were perfectly made too. I only wish I could have gone to the Tuesday or weekend live music nights. Hopefully next time I'm in town.
paid $30 for 2 dry tiny & bland sandwiches and a waffle. the flavor of the waffle was ok but it didn't come with syrup so it was pretty dry too. coffee was ok but service was not very friendly. definitely one of the bigger misses I've had here in Phoenix.
