    "Basics" is a new coffee place in the same building as the Main Street Laundromat. The prior space used to be more of a full service restaurant. As the name states, it is just the basics, coffee, tea, bagels, muffins, sandwiches, biscuits and gravy, hot dogs etc. Super clean inside with friendly owner and employees. Very good prices, with seating inside or out. Bagels w/ cream cheese were delicious as well as the hot coffee. I highly recommend "Basics" even if you don't need to do laundry. BTW- It is completely separate from the laundromat so it is. Ice and quiet.

    Stopped by on the way to California to try their acclaimed cinnamon rolls. Soo glad I did! Fresh cinnamon rolls topped with either maple bacon, maple, lemon, expresso basic glaze and more! So good!! I also grabbed a chicken salad sandwich and it was delicious too! Great place to stop by and grab a bite and support a local small business.

    Great variety to choose from.

    If you want the best cinnamon rolls you've ever had in your life, you have to come to Basics. They have a few options for the toppings and they are all delicious. Expresso brownie is good too. The staff is extremely friendly and welcoming. They also have great coffee and expresso bar. Don't judge!! Yes, we tried one of everything.

    Please don't miss stopping into this place. The owners are so sweet and so nice. Service is impeccable. The food was tasty. Do yourself a favor and order the maple bacon cinnamon roll. So soft and delicious. We also ordered the Turkey,cranberry, and herb cream cheese sandwich. Very yummy.

    Entrance is near this sign.

    We were on a road trip and found this place due to the reviews. It's a little hard to find....its on the street side of the laundromat. LOVED the chicken salad and the service was so friendly!!!

    Perfect little pit stop on the drive between Los Angeles & Phoenix!! I LOVED the iced vanilla latte.... i've tried a lot of lattes and this is seriously one of the best ever. Chicken salad on bagel was delicious as were the biscuits and gravy & muffins!! Michelle the owner is super friendly and welcoming!! They've been around since 2009 apparently :) Will definitely stop by on my next road trip!! Very cute little mom & pop shop.

    Basics serves specialty hot, blended and cold coffee drinks. They serve a limited breakfast, including biscuits and gravy, with eggs, amazing gourmet cinnamon rolls: maple bacon, orange cream, espresso cream and maple pecan to name a few. For lunch they have hot dogs, chili dogs, egg salad and chicken salad. The service is great, always with a greeting and a smile. The place is very clean and decorated very cute. Give it a try, you won't be sorry.

    The pizza was just okay, but the service attitude was extremely bad I will never come again!…read moreHere's what happened: 1. The server seated us at a two-person table that was very wobbly. At the time, I didn't think much of it, but looking back, it felt intentional. 2. We arrived at 12:45 and ordered a medium-sized pizza and one Coke. After she brought the Coke and water, we waited until 1:20. I asked another server about our pizza, and she said she would let our server know. After another 8 minutes, our server came over, expressionless, placed the pizza on the stand, and walked away without saying a word. At that point, I thought maybe she was just busy, so I didn't think much of it. But when we finished eating, my husband went to the restroom, and I got up to pay. I was looking around for our server when I saw her walking straight toward me with the bill and a plastic takeout box. Without saying a word, she placed them on the table and left. It felt incredibly rude. Now I feel like she was inexplicably rude to us the entire time, and I suspect it might be racial discrimination. Either way, I will never go back to this place!

    Visited 2/19/2926 Just an update to say this place has been…read moreand will remain the best food in Quartzite Az. Everything I've ever ordered has been Amazing. Today again we ordered The Shrimp Fettuccine Alfredo. It was delicious as usual. Perfectly cooked Pasta and Shrimp in a wonderful Creamy Sauce. Great Garlic Bread too. Can't miss with Silly Al's
