While I was in town visiting my cousin in San Diego I needed a place to work for the day…read more I did a quick google search and found Expansive 2 blocks from where I was staying. Of course I called and asked did they do a day pass. I receive a call back within 10 mins and was able to walk in and purchase my pass. Love this place so much & Nikki was awesome. - Coffee for all! Thats right even if you are not a member you can grab some coffee and tea - Leftover snacks available to all (members have access to the member only fridge) but there were snacks available from an event had which was great! - Private telephone rooms for conference calls - Awesome rooftop - THE BEST DECOR! I definitely will be looking into a membership at Expansive Phoenix

I needed a quiet place with fast wifi to work from before I could check into my Airbnb at 3pm. So…read moreglad I found this place! I booked an office for the day since I needed to speak during a video call, and that worked out perfectly. Nikki the manager was nice, showing me the kitchen area and answered all my questions (also buzzed me back into the office from outside the building very quickly). I loved the rooftop where I enjoyed my lunch from a great nearby Thai place (Thai Island, excellent pad thai). They also offer a day pass for the communal area, with telephone booth access for quick meetings. I'd definitely come back here if I'm in town and need a reliable workplace again.

It's an art gallery, but also a venue that can be rented out for a space to do several events. I…read morewent after hours for a indie film thingy, I would say it was very unorganized, they said door opening at 6 PM, but they let people wait in line to get photographer took pictures for marketing purposes. The catering company also there to serve people food, but then they made people buy their own stuffs and put all the free food away for themselves, we never heard of the food again. Show started at 7:30 PM, they just made people hanging out in the lobby, only a certain amount, the rest still have to wait outside in the cold, no food were served what so ever, the catering company put out the food, then the organizer boxed them and promised it will be ready for everyone after the show. Then the problem with seatings, they really don't know how to seat people, so they randomly picked people and put them to whatever seats available, then everyone else had to stand in the back the entire time. Finally the technical issue, sound and video went out of sync, camera and microphone didn't work half of the time. I understand this is low budget indie blah blah blah, but you really wasted everyone time, and you didn't get your act together. You should have done sound check and rehearsed. By the time they couldn't figure out how to fix the problem, they just let the rest of the show went on, then apologized. There was no free food, and if you wanted to buy food, the catering truck also gone. Really Bread & Salt, you need to allow more quality events to be in your venue. Please!

Over the past few years I've been to a few events and exhibits here ranging from an all women's…read moremotorcycle show with custom bikes, a band, and vendors (super rad event), to block printing work shops (cool too), and "haunted house"/art shows (meh). That said I gotta give the artists, staff, and organization of most of these events a "could be better"/2 stars as they are frequently rude -- one made a mean comment about me being a man, the art exhibits are often not very well curated, and overall the "experiences" and entrance/logistics are often very unclear, clunky, prone to oversights, and unorganized. I see from other reviews (Gary's) that this is not an infrequent occurrence. Still, I think this space is great, and depending on who organizes the event, it can be fun, but it's totally hit or miss.

Black&Grey is truly an incredible experience! Coffee, tattoos, cocktails, and dinner. from the…read moremoment you walk in, this experience is truly magical! I started coming to Black&Grey before it became what it is today, and it's been so beautiful watching it grow year over year. Sophia (the owner) is a phenomenal tattoo artist, and I highly recommend her for anyone who wants a magnificent art piece to carry with them forever. Every one of the artists, assistants, and apprentices are so friendly and so outgoing, and I love the hours I get to spend with these guys!

My artist was Amy @amymarumoto.ink on Instagram. I picked out this cutesy chrome fortune cookie…read morefrom her flash sheet. She's an incredible apprentice who has done some great realistic work. She was great and responsive when I reached out on IG and was patient with me when we were placing the stencil-- I was very particular about where I wanted it :) She was friendly and personable. The photos here were taken directly after we finished (unhealed). In terms of the studio, it was clean and spacious, definitely seemed very professional. As far as parking goes... it's East Village

I've been here several times and they always have interesting art pieces in rotation. But besides…read morethe artwork, the place it self is a great space for any art enthusiast. With its two-story open concept and brick walls, it has an urban yet elevated industrial vibe. I came here recently during Comic Con week and in addition to the modern pop art downstairs, I geeked out on the Marvel pieces upstairs. They featured the original comic books, time stone, orb, and a few life-sized Marvel super heroes. It was a treat and appropriate for Comic Con, of course! Can't wait to see which talented artists they'll feature at the gallery next.

*I have access through my company*…read more I don't pay for access but I can see the benefits even if I didn't at this point I would pay for access. Having a space outside of my home to land when I need to focus on work is great. The espresso machine, cold brew and kombucha on tap are the best bennies. I will also say the outdoor space is lovely and being surrounded by restaurants is great. Definitely leverage access thru your company if you have it!
