Coming from across the pond, the wife and I had some trouble adjusting to American tastes, but ended up going to Village Coffee almost every day. On the down side, the mocha uses chocolate syrup and not chocolate powder, so we gave that a miss. A small Americano equates to an Australian long black, and a latte corresponds to our cappuccino - milk well-textured without excessive froth- though the Village Coffee's soy milk is flavored with vanilla for no apparent reason. The friendly staff got to know our tastes so there was no need to explain our specific requirements each time.
We didn't try the food apart from a muffin, which was nice and chewy. Would have liked to see more choice of cakes, muffins etc, since we didn't want a cooked meal.
It's a great place to hang out and read the paper, though seating is sometimes tight. If ever we return to Scottsdale we shall choose to stay within easy range of this place.
