    Super welcoming and friendly staff, the food was amazing, having tried so many breakfast spots this one is a new go to. Definitely recommend it!

    The pier wrap

    The best breakfast place. The omelets made with real eggs. The mushrooms are amazing in omelet. The bacon is the million dollar bacon, coffee is fresh. Tamiko the server is amazing, as well as the mgr, Lisa is great..

    I have NOT had a working breakfast in a long time. This location was perfect and had yummy food. It was fun and prepping for our meeting. I had to fuel up on the ham and cheese omelette, potatoes, and multigrain bread. It was perfect to get geared up for a meeting onsite in person! The service was attentive and fast.

    First Watch is a stop we always make each trip to the Phoenix area. It's a great menu that offers a large selection of food and beverages, very innovative. Our server was slammed and took a few minutes to get our order, but once she did all kept rolling well! She made sure to check back with just the right amount of times without it being too much, and had a very bubbly personality even during the rush. The interior is modern and clean, and the food is always delicious! Wish we had one of these in the Seattle area where we lack great breakfast options.

    We got a First Watch gift card, using it at this Park Central location. Great service, great location, great food, good pricing.

    BLT eggs Benedict, million dollar bacon
    Kangni X.

    Love the decor and ambiance. The seating makes it feel private. Not a ton of people on a Friday morning. Our server Rachel was lovely and understanding. My friend had to run so we ordered and got our checks immediately. She split our checks and we could pay via QR code which was convenient. The food came quickly. They brought an extra carafe of hot coffee for self service refills. When my friend asked for a to go cup for his coffee, they brought one filled with fresh coffee. The million dollar bacon is worth it! 4 thick slices, evenly cooked with a bit of chew and crisp. The pepper is strong and the maple syrup balances the spice. The BLT eggs Benedict was delicious. I love arugula and the extra toss in lemon sauce added a nice zest to the heavier hollandaise sauce. The egg yolk was runny. Bacon and tomatoes were solid. The side of salad is a nice healthy option that a lot of brunch places lack. A great balance of protein and veggies. Would definitely get this again.

    It was my first time visiting a First Watch and I can definitely say that I'm not disappointed! My husband and I went on a Friday morning and it fortunately not packed. Our server was AMAZING and super attentive. He answered our questions about the menu, made recommendations, and came back several times to check on us. It's the kind of service that's hard to get even in places 5x more expensive than this. The establishment is clean and well-kept. The atmosphere is on the more formal side of casual? And the food is great! Everything we ordered was super tasty. Don't forget to try their seasonal drinks as well!

    It's still one of my favorite places for breakfast it's fresh, it's healthy, and it's always leaves me feeling good at the end of my meal. I really love their BLT Eggs Benedict. They are served on chabbatta bread instead of English muffin. The eggs are always poached perfectly and nestled on top of crispy bacon, tomato, and avocado. The hollandaise is light with a lemony finish, and the Arugula topping completes the dish. It is served with their yummy house potatoes at $13.99. My wife doesn't like bacon, so she always gets the Florentine. The decor is a rustic farmhouse, and the service staff is friendly and attentive. always a good experience.

    Really cute and trendy breakfast spot with fresh food . Left filling full and tummies satisfied . The drinks and juices are crafty in a pleasing to the eye way and taste fresh . The million dollar bacon was better than the bacon that came with our entrees . Coffee was strong and the ambience was chill . Our server was attentive and friendly . Parking is a bit difficult if it gets crowded and you can go online and get your name on the list ahead of time.

The theme is (as one might suspect) songbirds and the entire Cafe is decorated with small songbird items. As a detail oriented person, I was in heaven noticing all the cute decorations. I ordered the matcha latte and it did not disappoint. My friend ordered an iced americano. Both are classic items and they delivered well. There is plenty of seating inside and outside (weather permitting) and it seems like it would be a peaceful place to study or work. The baristas were sweet and patient and helpful with the menu.

    Songbird Coffee & Tea House is a cute coffee house in downtown Phoenix (more specifically near the…read moreRoosevelt Row Arts District) and the shop is located in a historic house built in 1904. Apparently the shop sources coffees and teas from local businesses. For example, coffees = Infusion Coffee Roasters in Tempe, loose leaf teas and chai = Maya Tea Company in Tucson, kombucha = Milly Moon Kombucha in Phoenix, and breakfast burritos = Lua Lua Catering. [Parking]: Mostly metered parking and I ended up parking few blocks away from the shop (plenty of metered parking spots near the intersection of E McKinley St & N 5th St). [Atmosphere]: Inside of this historic house, the wall features the work of local artists. The shop also has a cute outdoor patio area with tables. [Menu]: Apparently Matcha Latte is one of the more popular drinks here. The shop offers 12 black tea options, 9 green tea options, 8 herbal tea options, 4 white tea options, and 3 oolong tea options. *** Matcha Latte (16 oz, iced - $6.25): I was surprised that my drink was sugar free by default and I probably say yes when the staff had asked about adding sweetener. The drink was not as creamy as I thought and it was honestly a fairly mediocre drink. The drink also came with a paper straw. *** A great spot for a casual 1st date due to great vibe, but matcha latte just didn't hit the spot.

The first time I ordered it unsweetened was accidental, but trying it without sweetener or flavor was what made me realize that their matcha may be the best I've ever had. I've also had their Mas matcha latte and it is also absolutely delicious and simple and still allows me to taste the matcha through the vanilla and sweetness. I've been to other places that serve Kettl matcha, but none have tasted nearly as rich as Futuro's. The atmosphere itself is true to its name. It is futuristic, simple, and beautiful. It is full of unique art pieces of all types, and they sell their coffees and teas as well. I feel at peace inside and they always have vibey music playing at a perfect volume and incense lit. The service itself is one of a kind and makes me feel like I'm at a 5-star restaurant. They bring your items out on a beautiful tray and will always serve your drink with a cup of water on the side if you order it for here. They will even package your food up for you, which I would never expect from a coffee shop. It can be busy at times with a bit of a wait because the drinks are all made one at a time, but it's always worth the wait. The place isn't very big but has plenty of seating given the space. For working from home, they do have wifi but limited outlets. Their pastries served from a local bakery are also delicious.

I'm currently hooked on the Cafe de Olla, a gorgeous blend of sugar and spice that's topped with a star anise pod that enhances the aroma with every sip. But virtually every menu item -- honorable mention to the Cajeta -- is balanced and well crafted. The baristas are all very knowledgeable about their teas, as well. I've recently been SO hooked by their semi-new weekend pastry artist, Ghita, who crafts such unique desserts. Most recently, I tried their absolutely FIRE black sesame craquelin with a mildly sweet tahini cream. The rhubarb cream pastry was also gorgeous and creative. Futuro as a space is intentionally designed as well, with plenty of seating on both sides, boutique goods for sale, and great reads. It's the perfect place to read a book and chill on weekends. And the staff, even when busy, seem to always perfectly serve each order and efficiently clear out plates. Officially my favorite coffee shop 1000% now.

The ambiance, drinks, and service were all great! There is an entrance to Lola Coffee from Roosevelt and another from the back near parking spaces. There is a restroom near the back entrance, and the start to the line to place an order is right near the front entrance. I saw in one of the comfy chairs while I waited for my former student to arrive. At that point, we moved to a regular table and then went and ordered drinks. She ordered a coffee, and I ordered a lemonade. We both enjoyed our drinks which were ready very quickly. There were smaller and larger tables, and there were also countertops along with business cards and marketing items at the back of the room on a thin table. Lola Coffee began with humble beginnings going back to 1992 with a cart, then Lux Coffee, and eventually Lola Coffee downtown. Now, there is even a second Lola Coffee location in Arcadia near 40th Street and Indian School. Today, they serve coffee, pastries, and breakfast. The Downtown Phoenix location hours are weekdays from 6:30 AM to 7 PM and weekends from 7 AM to 7 PM. You can see their menu, history, photos, and more on their website (https://lolacoffeebarphx.com). While I had trouble choosing between a lemonade for a cold beverage or hot chocolate for a warm beverage, it's great they have so many options. Again, try them for drinks, breakfast, or pastries. Their staff is so helpful and the actual restaurant is quite welcoming to everyone.

She finishes making my drink and says "I don't have lids but I do have straws". You should have mentioned that before I paid and before you wasted your time making it. I told her I didn't want it. I didn't even ask for a refund; I just didn't want the coffee. She offered to put it in a hot cup and I told her I didn't want it. When I told her that, she got really hostile and started asking "why?" I told her I just didn't prefer it and she kept asking "why?" with a lot of attitude and hostility. It's not the same experience. If it was, universally we would be drinking hot and iced coffee in the same hot cup. We wanted coffee to go in a cold coffee cup. You can't provide that, so we left. She didn't offer a refund, which is fine, but she asked before we left "what can I do to make it right since you paid for it?" You could have offered a refund but you so it's fine.
