After a rough night, my eyes couldn't stay open at 11am. I needed a caffeine pick me up. I searched…read morefor a coffee shop nearby and I found Coffee Rush. I was expecting a small coffee shop. I was pleasantly surprised with how big it is. It's a proper cafe with 5-10 tables, each for 2 people. Plenty of space, so no knocking elbows with their neighbor. The music wasn't distracting and I saw a few people working on their laptops. There were some periodicals. It gives old school cafe vibes where people sit and enjoy a coffee with a friend. The barista was friendly and eager to engage in conversation. We talked about the calming ritual of making coffee for a few minutes. They offer an extensive coffee and drink menu, and they have a lot of pastries to pair with your coffee. I ordered a skinny vanilla latte. It was delicious!

Best pizza in the Valley by far!! My husband (from New Jersey) has said multiple times that Sal's…read morehas the only pizza in Phoenix that's good - he has high standards, but I agree with him that the best pizza is at Sal's. He usually gets a plain pie (pizza with cheese), which he says is great, and I have had several different kinds of pizza during our visits to Sal's and each one has been amazing - plus, they have garlic powder at each of the tables. The calamari and tiramisu are also fantastic!! The service is always great - our servers are consistently friendly and helpful. The place is super cute and homey and can accommodate both big and small parties. It's a good thing that Sal's is 20 minutes from us, or else we would probably be here at least 3 times a week, something that would do considerable damage to both of our waistlines.

I've been hearing this is the best in the E Valley. I cannot agree more!!!…read more I tried what most call a "tomato pie." Sal's calls it upside down pie. Sicilian style. Either way, it was an amazing slice! I typically add some grated parm, Italian seasoning and black pepper, (They have them), this pie needed nothing!!! 8.5 rating. Portnoy scale. Which means excellent!!! The other slice was a Neopolitan cheese slice. With added basil. I love good basil pie. Again, fantastic!!! Scored 8.5. I'll go back and try some Italian foods as everything coming out of the kitchen looking non nom nom!!!

I'm not usually a cupcake person, but this place completely changed my mind. The cupcakes are…read moreincredibly moist and full of flavor honestly hard to choose a favorite. Just make sure to get there early, because they do sell out of the popular flavors. It's the perfect little outing too grab a cupcake and take a stroll through the beautiful Agritopia gardens. Such a sweet and relaxing experience, and definitely one of our go-to spots when we're craving a treat.

This is a lovely coffee shop anytime of day! The cafe offers plenty of indoor and outdoor seating,…read morebut is almost always busy and bustling! The convenient Agritopia location is beautiful and central. I typically order an iced chai latte (which tastes like Xmas in a cup :-) A chai latte is not my typical order at other coffee/ tea shops, but I've never been a fan of the espresso here. The ingredients (matcha/ syrups, etc.) from what I can tell are not 'high quality' but most of the drinks I've tried are still delicious! They offer a full brekky and lunch menu as well as a grand pastry case. I highly recommend the Coffee Shop! :-)
