| - The Phoenix Public Market Café is a definite "must visit" for lunch if you find yourself in the Downtown Phoenix area. I've already visited 3 times within the past month and each time I was not disappointed. The Market Café is located off of Central on Pierce in a recently renovated space that once housed the Phoenix Public Market grocery store. But instead of talking about the history, let's talk about my experience at the Market Café.
During my first visit, I did a quick overview of their menu and ordered the AZ Burger just to play it safe. The AZ Burger came with green chile, lettuce, cheddar, and their house dressing. The burger was cooked well and the bread that holds all the goodness together is great. I was not disappointed with the burger or the service during my first visit.
For my second visit, I decided to try something else and ordered the grilled cheese which is served on toasted multi-grain bread with sharp cheddar cheese. You're probably reading this and thinking that I could have made the same thing at home. You're right! However, what makes this grilled cheese awesome is the bread. Even though the bread is toasted, it remained a little soft and warm in the middle while the crust had a nice toast to it. In addition to the sandwich, I ordered a side of fries that also didn't disappoint. They were lightly salted and still a tad soft when they were plated and served. My second visit was a success.
Can the Phoenix Public Market Café go three for three? You bet they can! I went back for a third visit and ordered the fries again but this time I ordered the chicken salad sandwich which is served with basil, pine nuts, arugula, and tomatoes all found between two slices of 9-grain bread. This sandwich packs some amazing flavor and some texture thanks to the bread they used. Whomever the Market Café is using as their baker, they should do everything in their power not to lose him/her.
To date, my experiences at the Market Café have been positive thanks to the great food and service. Aaron Chamberlin has done an amazing job with the space and also brought a wonderful yet simple menu to the Downtown Phoenix area. By the way, If you have specific dietary needs (i.e. vegetarian, vegan, gluten free, dairy free), then this is a place you can visit and find something that suits your needs as well.
If you are a supporter of local and enjoy good food, be sure to visit the Market Café at the Phoenix Public Market.
