Spencer's Place is more than just a coffee shop -- it's a neighborhood community hub with heart…read more Tucked right into a residential area, it has that cozy, local hangout vibe where you can tell regulars stop in often. But what really makes this place special is their mission. They hire individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities and actively invest in the community -- from vendor markets to hosting events like their upcoming 5K. You can feel that purpose woven into everything they do. We tried one of their themed drink flights (the Sweet Heart menu was adorable -- Love Potion, Love Struck, To The Moon & Back... so cute). The presentation in the little mason jars was fun and picture-worthy. Flavor-wise, they leaned sweeter than my personal preference, but still enjoyable and perfect if you love flavored lattes. They offer plenty of milk options, including non-dairy, which I appreciate. Bakery - vegan and gluten-free options clearly labeled. I grabbed the lemon scone (vegan + GF). It was good! I'm personally more of a vegan-but-not-gluten-free girl, so texture-wise it's not something I'd specifically crave again -- but I absolutely appreciate that they create inclusive options. My friend had the cinnamon roll and was happy. They also have a small retail section with mugs, shirts, local honey, and little gift items, which adds to the community feel. Overall, this isn't a hyper-trendy, third-wave coffee aesthetic spot -- it's something better. It's purpose-driven, inclusive, and clearly loved by the neighborhood. Not a five-star flavor experience for me personally, but an easy four stars for what they stand for and the impact they're making.

I've been to Black Rock before but not this one. I am glad I…read moreremembered this place is open and near our home. My husband and I went on a little Christmas Eve coffee date. I got an eggnog latte. It was great. Their smalls come with 2 espresso shots, which to me, is top notch.!There were 3 people working. Cleaning and stuff. The store was not busy at all. It felt clean and comfortable. I loved the roll up garage door that was open and giving the indoor outdoor vibes. We will be coming back often.

They had one drink ready right when I walked up and were waiting on the second. That second drink took 20 minutes and they helped the entire drive thru line before I finally said something. They were busy so I was understanding, however my experience was like this a month or so ago when I was here so I now I see a pattern. Better training or something needs to be done to help them manage busier times. Or maybe don't order ahead and wait in the drive thru line...

Ok first off the staff AMAZING!!!!…read more When you come here expect to get that one in one treatment. They will take the time to give you an over view of their menu. There are also other shops in there like a tattoo shop, massage and a 3d shop. There were others but I didn't see what else. The shop is super clean and the coffee was DELICIOUS. I love when you can taste the coffee and not just sugar. Do yourself a favor and come check them out. You will not be disappointed. They have milk alternative options.

Let me tell you about the cutest, tastiest local coffee shop I came across today in El Mirage. The…read moreGrind Cafe is located in The Station Business Suites. Today I walked in and was greeted by Chey. (Hopefully spelled it right) She was so friendly and we got to talk quite a bit. She stated the shop's been here for about a year . I don't know how I missed it, but I'll be back often now that I know. I told her my love of cold brew and she offered me a sample of both their regular and Nitro. She said the Nitro has said to be liked more by their customers. I agree. It was so smooth. The regular had a tiny acidity to it, but not bad. Her customer service was awesome. I ordered one with vanilla cold foam and a tad sf vanilla. They only offer one size in drinks. I also went opposite of my usual and ordered a French Toast shaken espresso iced. It's one of theocmost popular. You only live once and I know I'll be amped all day ha ha. I then ordered an iced vanilla chai to take to my niece. The shop is small but offers a cozy room to chill, a few seats near the register as well as a table and a few seats out front. There is a fuel lot next door to park, but also a couple paved including a handicap accessible spot. All the drinks were so good. I honestly think the shake espresso may be my new favorite drink. I never thought I'd steal away from my cold brew, but it's got me hooked already. Come show them some love. Supporting local is so important and brings so much back to the community.

Overall, it seemed as though we were a nuisance because we weren't familiar with the menu, no recommendations offered, no thoughts just "is that all?" I wasn't too happy that they offer a small drink but they cannot sell the Thai tea in a small. We ordered a sea salt coffee, Carmel macchiato and a coconut roll. The coffee was nice and the roll was so soft. I personally didn't taste the coconut but my daughter said she did. The vibe inside is cool and I'd like to go back next week after the grand opening and try it again and dine in. The dessert look awesome and there's so much to try. They even sell chocolate bread and white bread which is so soft soft. I'm Looking forward to it.

Peoria seems like a nice place to be, and this is a great representation. It's a tiny coffee shop that exists on the corner of a small street. Great vibes when you walk in, and the staff is friendly and warm. I ordered a short iced latte and waited for the drink to be made. Lotsa folks around getting their day started, or doing some work for the day. The energy was perfect, and my coffee arrived promptly. I gave it a sip and went on my way. The coffee was not bad, but pretty much unremarkable in that regard. I enjoyed it as a sipping coffee, but it was a little too dark on the roast for me. Not their fault, as they're a multiroaster. Overall, I think it's a great place to grab a coffee, and especially if you like flavored drinks! Perhaps a mocha or a vanilla latte would slap! Come here for a nice slow morning or if you want a mood boost!
