50 Best Cafes in Phoenix

“Gertrude's is a good go-to spot when enjoying an evening at the Desert Botanical Garden. High quality menu of food choices. Reasonable priced though a little on the higher side. Decent drink menu but would prefer higher end choices of liquor and wine. Usually sit at the bar. The service is pretty good. They try really hard but on a Friday and Saturday they need two bartenders for the dinner rush. It's good and I recommend. With a few tweaks it could be even better.“

“Trying some new bakeries and breakfast spots around Arcadia and stopped by Essence for a bite this past week.

I ordered the Egg Sandwich and thought it was delicious. The bun was so soft and eggs were cooked perfectly. The French Scrambled Eggs went well with the baguette, which also came with a jam that was to die for. I could eat this breakfast every day! The coffee and pastry didn’t disappoint either!“

“The ahi tuna melt was delicious! Will be returning to try something else.“

“Excellent coffee, teas, and vegan munchies. Fun and imaginative drinks for any mood. Highly recommend trying any of their coffees or teas with their various flavored foams. The iced blueberry tea with blueberry foam is light, refreshing, and out of this world. Steep is also a warm and inviting place to come hang out and work. I am usually disappointed with vegan food offerings in coffee shops, but their breakfast sandy is delicious! The slaw in the sandy takes it over the top.“

“My absolute favorite place for Redbull energy drinks & Teas!! 😻 They use real fruits in their drinks and pure sugarcane! 🍉🫐🍓🍑 The (i’m assuming) owner who works is so kind & funny always and is great with suggestions! ☕️ The prices are amazing for the quality & size of the drink :) There’s a section of board games inside to play and they stay open later which is very convenient! I absolutely love this place and i hope more people can stop by to try it! I haven’t tried the coffee yet but it’s next on my list. This place is so cute and i wish the best to the company 💐“

I didn’t get the other ladies name but she was amazing also and very helpful. The vibe in this place is amazing. If yall want the best definitely come here!!!!!“

“The 1st visit, food was so good and price is reasonable but when ordering a soup. It should come in a bowl with a soup spoon. I couldnt really eat my soup with the container they had it in and spoon was too small to even enjoy it. After two trys, I ended up putting my soup aside till I got home and reheat it. My favorite is the BBQ Pork Bao & Shomai.“

“Love the morning Baristas! Ellie, Nikki, Raq, and John always make me smile!“

“My husband and I went for the first time today. We were greeted as soon as we came in and were asked if we had ever been there before. I said no it’s our first time and so she proceeded to explain how the process works of choosing a tea and how we can ice or blend and even mix flavors. It’s a nice feeling when you walk in somewhere new and they help with explaining their product. We ended up choosing black tea milk boba with coconut and honey... We will definitely be returning due to great tea and customer service and AMAZING!!!!!!“

“We have been going to Nosh for over four years and it is our most favorite 'Local' restaurant all the way around! So good that we frequent Nosh a few times a week when we can. The bagels are delicious and always fresh and the burritos are heavenly. What makes their food so yummy is the positive energy of their chefs and staff who are always warm and friendly. Definitely a warm and cozy, inviting atmosphere where they make you feel like family!“

“My wife heard about Mis Raices Café through family and facebook. We are always looking to try new places around town. My wife, one of our daughters, and I stopped in this morning. The atmosphere was very positive and relaxed with the baristas and other customers. We each had a different drink choice: Duvalin Iced Latte, Marzipan Iced Latte, and a Carmel Iced Latte. All three looked amazing just from the presentation when the baristas made them. They all tasted just as amazing. Once we left we realized we may have been sitting next to the owner and his daughter. If we realized it when we were there we would have told him how impressed we were and it is one of the few we would beyond highly recommend to everyone. No doubt we have found a new favorite local spot we will definitely be coming back regularly. To the entire team at Mis Raices, you are doing a phenomenal job with everything. Thank you!“

“Great place. Try the cold brew and breakfast sandwich“

“Un lugar familiar y muy delicioso“

“The food was good and healthy.“

“Of the many, many Museums my wife and I have enjoyed visiting over many years across the country, no institution visited has what I call the best in-house bistro than the Musical Instrument Museum of Arizona. I was amazed at the offerings, not only in the diversity of their menu, but how they change seasonally, the quality and enjoyment of eating here enhancing the visit to this magnificent museum. Their menu encompasses global cuisine, grills, entrées, salads and more! My recommendation is, start your perusing of the galleries first, stop off to grab a bite, and continue your visit to walk off the fab meal or snack you’ve consumed. Take it from me, it’s excellent.“

“super relajado y familiar“

“Soothing, relaxing environment. And food and service beyond reproach. Excellent.“

“The Variety is reasonable and the prices are good. I think they need to pay attention to details though, like cutting a pizza first and making sure the order is ok.“

“Welcome Natty's Pizza! It's so delicious. Very happy for the new menu addition. Welcome to Morgan Ford.“

“I picked up breakfast here several days in a row, while staying at the Hilton resort across the way.
The food was delicious and prices are very reasonable. I had breakfast burrito, bagel, and breakfast sandwich- all were really good and portions were perfect, if a little big (perfect to save for later!). The cappuccino and coffees were exactly what I needed. The staff were all really kind.
Definitely a hidden gem with great prices, especially for those at the resorts.“
