Great coffee shop...
I am originally from Seattle and love a good cup of coffee. Giant Coffee is a wonderful establishment with friendly service and excellent coffee. Let me list the things I love about this place.
1. Attention to detail (Strauss milk)(high quality soy milk)
2. Excellent barista's (Great customer service)
3. Atmosphere (wonderful interior design)
4. location (across from Phoenix Art Museum
Giant Coffee is a great place to just get away and relax or meet up with friends. Parking has never been a problem for me and I usually get a spot right up front. I don't understand why some posts claim to have a problem with the barista's customer service because they are really friendly and take the time to get to know you. I have never in my life met barista's this nice and I have been to a lot of coffee shops in my time. Also just last week I saw one of my favorite barista's at Giant Coffee come in on his day off to get coffee and he ended up spending a few hours talking to regulars he knew. WOW, that says a lot. Ya this place is no Starbucks thank god... and they don't write your name on your cup and throw it at you the second you decide to sit down. Phoenicians let me give you some advice... A coffee shop is a magical place you go to get away from your hectic life so try and slow down a little and smell the espresso. The people who have a problem with this place are just intimidated by its awesomeness and need to go back to whatever Starbucks hole they crawled out of.
