    Perfect Saturday breakfast with a friend. Cappuccino and pain au chocolat.
    Zvonko N.

    They specialize in sourdough bread and have many kinds - sliced, whole, thin and thick crust, with olives and other varieties. They also have pizza and pastries that are ok. The prices are on the high end, but the staff is uber friendly and the place gives off a great vibe. They have a turntable and a small collection of vinyl records that you can spin - a self service that is a big draw for me . Indoor and outdoor seating on a nice street overlooking the corner of 3rd Street and Roosevelt.

    I first discovered Proof's Sourdough bread at the Farmers Market and absolutely loved it. So, when I noticed they had opened a location downtown along my commute, I knew I had to stop in. I picked up a variety of items to try: the classic sourdough loaf, olive loaf, lemon curd Danish, rosemary twist, and a 4-pack of English muffins. The place it small but plenty of seating inside and out, very cute. The classic sourdough was just what you'd expect, solid and reliable. The olive loaf was especially delicious when paired with my favorite homemade olive oil dip. The rosemary twist had good flavor and was enjoyable overall. The lemon curd danish was a bit too intense for me. I usually love tart and sour flavors, but this one was overpowering. The pastry itself was great, but I wish the lemon curd had been more evenly distributed rather than just a mound in the center. A touch more sweetness would have balanced it out better. If you love very tart lemon, this might be perfect for you, but it was a bit much for my taste. The standout item for me was definitely the english muffins. They were light, fluffy, and made the best breakfast sandwiches. I ended up eating one every morning, they're hands down the best English muffins I've ever had.

    OMG after watching many! many!! many!!!seasons of Baking shows on TV I have found a Authentic Bakery where all those hard working bakers work. I had a SALTED ROSEMARY TWIST that was bursting with real rosemary and buttery goodness. The staff is beyond friendly and the coffee is amazingly good and reasonably priced. They brew Press Coffee(a local bean roaster). I travel as airline crew and I really appreciate bakeries that put in the work.

    I've loved Proof Bread for years and was so excited that they've opened a location at Roosevelt Row. Great location in the new Eco apartments. Fast casual service where you order at the counter and they call out when your food/drink is ready. A couple of places to sit inside and a decent sized patio outside that will be great in cooler weather. Their pastries are great as always. Such a good addition to the neighborhood.

    Hand down, the best bread and pastries around!! Small location in the Roosevelt district, that has plenty of their specialty breads and pastries!!! The sourdough is my favorite, along with the morning buns. Always the most friendliest staff!!!!!!

    Proof's spot on Roosevelt is utterly fabulous. Stop in for one of their fresh pastries, get a tasty coffee to go with it, and grab a delicious loaf of bread for dinner that night. There is cute indoor seating space and a wide open walk-up window with patio. Plus the people there are always so friendly and willing to answer questions about their bread or just help start your day on a lighter note. They're an amazing addition to this part of Roosevelt and I highly recommend a stop.

    The perfect little bakery!! They serve delicious coffee and the BEST pastries! We have bought several sourdough loafs from them and each one was fantastic. You can't go wrong with anything here. The staff is always super friendly as well! They have seating on the inside and it's placed inside a nice little row of brick buildings off of Roosevelt. I highly recommend this place :) We need more places like these in Phoenix!

    Salted rosemary twist, iced vanilla latte with oat milk, and the country sourdough loaf!

    If you are a sourdough lover, get your bread from Proof! Amazing quality bread without the useless ingredients you'd get from a grocery store loaf. The pastry's are also soooo good! They also have coffee! The staff was super friendly and enlightened me with the background of the business and bread! You're not only getting high quality bread, but you're also supporting a small business! I will definitely be back to get my weekly sourdough loafs!

    The patio

    We've been buying Proof bread at the farmers market for awhile so I visited their bakery. GREAT patio on a quiet street (at least that morning it was). I think their pastries are the best because they're made with sourdough. By far the best bread in the city.

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.

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.

The staff was knowledgeable and took the time to explain the menu, making the experience approachable even for a first-time visitor. I decided to try one of their signature kava beverages, and I was pleasantly surprised by how intriguing and complex the drink was. The flavor profile was unlike anything I had experienced before--earthy, bold, and distinctive in a way that felt both adventurous and refined. More importantly, the effects were exactly as described. As I enjoyed my drink, a gentle sense of relaxation gradually settled in, leaving me feeling calm, centered, and remarkably at ease without any sense of heaviness. What I appreciated most was how the experience encouraged mindfulness and connection. Lacuna offers something refreshingly different from a traditional coffee shop or cocktail lounge, creating an environment where conversation flows naturally and relaxation takes center stage. Whether you're curious about kava for the first time or already familiar with its calming properties, Lacuna Kava Bar is absolutely worth a visit. The combination of a welcoming atmosphere, knowledgeable staff, and a truly distinctive beverage experience makes it a standout destination. I left feeling refreshed, relaxed, and looking forward to my next visit.
