I wish I lived closer to Solo. I wish I could bike over in 5 or 10 minutes. Oh I wish! I've been searching for an indy shop for awhile for my tea and wi-fi time. The owner couldn't be more happy or kind. There couldn't possibly be more power outlets. I don't think the mood could have been much better.
I enjoyed a decent selection of tunes, friendly chats with a diverse patronage, and a tall hot South African Rooibos (good tea selection for us tea drinkers) ! Solo definitely is what I needed in a cafe. And it reminds me of several fave indy shops back in NYC.
And another thing, really important thing----I felt like a grown-up in a grown-up cafe, and not some grown-up invading the ASU student more hip than thou cafe with spazzed out staff and music I wish they'd shut off and sofas threatening to infest.
(I'm actually in love with several businesses in this plaza. A new go-to plaza for me!)
