Thanks to all of you yelpers before me who wrote such great reviews about Steve's Espresso... and thanks to Alicia B. who suggested we have a bookclub meeting here too. Otherwise, I never would've ventured out to McClintock and Baseline in Tempe.
Not sure what else I can say other than what a great find this is... I can't speak to the coffee, but the iced tea was refreshing on a beautiful afternoon like today. It was clean, unassuming, although there were a good amount of people there, it was quiet enough to concentrate if you needed to get work done... there was a good energy in the air! Drew was working the counter and was friendly - both in the store and when I called to make sure they were dog friendly (which they are if the dog stays outside).
I didn't check out the restrooms which is surprising, but I'll have to do that next visit! I'll also have to try some of the scrumptious looking snacks... Since they are open until 10pm every night of the week, maybe I'll go hang one evening soon! Like Alicia, I only wish it were closer to my work/home. Do you hear that Steve? How about a 2nd location?
