    Short stack of pancakes
    Debbi P.

    What a great diner!! Always the best food with the best waitstaff!!!! Was there with a large group and they were so accommodating and patient and got every single order perfect. The food comes out so fast and you never feel rushed!! Always crowded but you never have to wait too long for a table. Great cozy diner vibes!!!

    Pancake deluxe
    Lou M.

    Pretty simple review here. Very quick service and decent food. We got seated right away and the food came out pretty fast. I ordered the pancake deluxe and it was an absolute huge portion. I could only finish the meat eggs and one pancake. If you order this, get the small stack unless you really think you can put away three huge pancakes??. Overall, I'm very happy with the experience here.

    Burnt "huge" Huge!! Breakfast Burrito
    Kayla S.

    Make it snappy and seat yourself! This place is all gas and no rest unless you're a VIP regular but even then you might catch the waitress talking about how rude your husband was the last time you came in behind the counter. Our first time in and once we found out we could seat ourselves we had to choose between the booth with the duct tape covering a huge rip or the wobbly table. We went with the wobbly table. Then we had the waiter running back and forth because we would start to talk and then she'd run off before we finished our sentence. She also had to come back and verify with us our order because she wasn't really paying attention when we did talk. We ordered the cinnamon toll ('microwaved), pancakes (dense) and the breakfast burrito (not sure why they called it huge. It was regular sized. Also burnt inside). Wasn't sure how the check out processes went and since there was so much chaos going on we didn't want to wait so we went to the counter to pay. It was then they finally asked how we were doing and if everything was okay. This place seems like it's one of those i'm starving and it's before 11am and breakfast specials $6.

    Egg Sandwich with Bavon
    Norm W.

    Have not been here in more than a few years. Used to be my neighborhood hangout when it used to be Pinky's Cafe. Ordered a sandwich with bacon cheese and egg on an English muffin. Coffee cup was never empty. Busy on weekend morning. Still a good spot to grab breakfast brunch or lunch.

    A mimosa and a full breakfast under $11. Great food great mimosas
    Latosha B.

    Great breakfast excellent prices. The mimosas are awesome. The service is fast, friendly and pleasant. I come here every week.

    Went out of my way for this one and it was totally worth it…read more It's a bit hidden, but once you turn the corner it's a delightful find. It's a fantastic coffee shop designed with simplicity and producivity in mind - hosted in a gorgeous building with exposed brick and ceilings, which give it an industrial feel. My take on the space was it breathes this interesting balance of lingering, connection with others, and productivity. Almost every seat had a corresponding table, so that's a warm invitation to bring your devices in. There was a Ducati (!!!) parked right across from the coffee bar, which I later learned belongs to the owner just sharing his passion with the coffee community. Small detail, but it says something about the place. Definitely not a coffee shop trying to be a copy and paste chain. Menu had a few creative options I wouldn't mind coming back to try. They've also got their own merch line; the cups were also designed well enough that you'd actually want to keep one. There's street art right across from the shop worth a look if you've got a few minutes to spare. If you don't mind a short drive for a great cup and a space that actually feels lived in, this one delivers. PS - Parking can be tricky. It looks like there's ample space to park, but a lot of that is for Galvanize and the offices in the building. Towing trucks come over often, so heads up if you're going to park there. Don't get caught in the wrong spot.

So, when I walked into the building entrance with intentions to see an art exhibit & I was punched in the face with the intoxicating smell of coffee I HAD to try it, obviously. & they didn't disappoint. The person that took my order made some helpful & honest recommendations, which I appreciate! Considering I don't want to commit to an $8 coffee I'm not going to enjoy, no thanks. I ordered something off the seasonal menu...I think? To be honest I can't recall exactly what drink I ordered but it was iced & about $8 & I asked for light on the caramel. I had to be quick since I was meeting someone & we had limited time. Coffee came out pretty quick & it was a good choice! Great balance of flavor, not too sweet, coffee was smooth. Not too much ice either. I would definitely order again. The space was cool too, lots of natural light, lots of people working. It is located inside of a giant brick building shared with other spaces, parking is limited unless you have handicap parking then no worries there. They also have reserve spots for Coffee Drunk although limited. Or street parking. Now I'll definitely have to check out the LB location!!

Was not greeted by any staff (although at least 4 walked past me without even a head nod), had no idea what the menu was or pricing. Located a girl standing in front of a register and asked her where the menu was ~ she pointed and said over there... There were 4 different cards sitting where she pointed. (The red one's are for food.) I randomly order something. (Espresso over ice with whole milk ~ received it with oat milk took a taste and yucked out of that. Directly into the dumpster at the back of the parking lot. ) I could have went back in there but for $6 it wasn't worth my time. If you are a regular, they seem to treat them very nice. If you are new to their establishment ~ you don't matter.

Small but I thought a good deal at $12. They also had some really tempting haworthia but I had to say no as I do not have my current indoor plant menagerie under control. Excuse to go back in the future! I went mid-day on a weekday and was able to get street parking easily. It might be harder during certain hours. This spot on Grand has really gorgeous planters - and the shop is across from Novel ice cream and like a 2 min walk from Grand Ave Brewing, so if you time it right you could support multiple local businesses!

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.

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.
