I love Shine! And the staff! It's owned/operated by an awesome couple - Christiann & Laryn Blok, whom are very involved in the local community.
It's in a tiny building on Vernon, which is super convenience to moi as I live in quick walking distance. I often times trot over there with the pup and then walk around the historic hoods for a while after with my delicious coffee. Shine uses Cartel beans and they are pretty great at crafting their caffeinated concoctions! My most recent favorite is the Cardamom latte, but I've loved every drink they've made me. If you feel like sticking around, they also own the building next door that they have named the Living Room - and it looks just like one with big comfy chairs and a lil wifi action so you crazy kids can get your work done.
Stop by! Chat it up with the folks behind the window, enjoy a rockin' beverage and support local business! :) They're also building a pocket park next door and that Christiaan and Laryn helped to get funding for online. Also, every Friday there's a group of folks that work in DT PHX that start their bike 'commute' from Shine. Love it!
