| - I've never turned down an invitation to any of Joe Johnston's eateries, but Liberty Market is probably my favorite, for three main reasons:
#1 - they're open early, and serve beer. Just to be clear, I'm not an alcoholic in need of an eye opener. I work overnights, and Liberty is one of our staples for post-shift beers and delicious food. They have a decent craft beer selection and usually have Tower Station on hand, which is a serious plus. All of the breakfast choices are phenomenal, though the chorizo and sweet potato hash and breakfast burrito are my two favorites. Their pastry cake is also stocked full of tasty options as well - from big soft cinnamon rolls the size of your head to delicate macarons to buttery rich scones, you really can't go wrong. My old roommate swears by the salt river bars. My only complaint is that they previously had these AMAZING blackberry lemon bars, which aren't available anymore. I might just need to start a petition to bring them back.
#2 - the Strada bar is fabulous and I'm completely addicted to their cortados. Except for Bergie's on the next block, there aren't many places in downtown Gilbert to get coffee this good. I love that they make their own nut milks; I feel like it gives your drink a little extra love.
#3 - most importantly, they have DOSSANTS on Tuesdays! You read that right - freaking donut croissant hybrids. It's a different flavor every week, though the best ones I've had were the maple bacon and the lemon meringue. More recently they had a cannoli one that completely blew my mind. Yep. Cannoli + donut + croissant = bliss.
Other miscellaneous things that make Liberty Market so amazing:
$10 free towards your bill on your birthday, just don't forget your ID.
The bathrooms! They were all designed by a different staff member, so each has its own personality. I would definitely recommend checking them out.
Dog friendly patio!
