| - I've come here a few times for a coffee, snack, or lunch. I like this location better than the one a couple blocks north at the Roosevelt Square apartments. This one is cleaner, more organized, and the tables aren't all rickety. Plus, they have more seating, or so it seems. The food and sweets are the same at both locations. Fair Trade is a nice option for lunch versus all the other quick serve cafes that are in this area.
I've had various cookies, brownies, and iced coffees and tea at both locations. They are all delicious, and sometimes there are unique options, such as today was a curry/peanut butter/chocolate cookie. I don't know that I could taste any curry, but the cookie is very delicious. For lunch, I typically get a hummus/veggie sandwich, and they really pack it with some mixed greens, spinach, tomatoes, and some spicy hummus. My friend ordered the chicken sandwich and said it was great too.
The location is nice, because although it's in downtown Phoenix, it is downstairs, so there's not the excess noise of traffic or anything. You can choose to sit inside or outside.
Also, the music choices at both locations are always excellent. Today I heard Frightened Rabbit and The National while eating my lunch.
The only complaints I have is that it can seem pricey if you order a few things, and also, depending on day, it can be kind of slow to get your order. Also, I purchased gift cards for some people at this location, and they have told me I can only use them here, versus at both locations. That kind of stinks, since I like going to both.
