MEXICAN FOOD
Phoenix is known for outstanding Mexican food. Blanco is a great example of why that is. They also stock Bohemia, which is my favorite beer.
Blanco Cocina + Cantina - Multiple Locations
Here you will find my favorite tacos in AZ. I love this place. Family-owned, friendly, and the tacos are authentic street taco style.
TEG Torta Shop - Phoenix, AZ
Don Rubens was located at 43rd Avenue and Cactus Rd. for decades but has recently relocated to Surprise. I suggest the Caliente Burrito or the tortilla soup but do not skip the beans. This is a great spot!
Don Ruben's Mexican Food - Surprise, AZ
A favorite spot for many locals, and for good reason. Local legends for quality Mexican food and great atmosphere.
Comedor Guadalajara - Phoenix, AZ
Street tacos! Do you love street tacos? I know I do. I've been enjoying this local spot since it was a food truck, now multiple locations - find one! Yum!
Tacos Calafia - Multiple locations
Coffee & Sweets
Located near 7th Street and Roosevelt, A Flourshop carries some of the most delicious baked goods in the city. They don't stop there, they are renowned for their wedding cakes as well. Check out the Cake Canvas events, great date night concept.
A Flourshop - Phoenix, AZ
One of the few quality specialty coffee locations in the West Valley. I'm a fan of their simple iced Americano, but they have some great lattes as well! Minimal aesthetic and great vibes.
Driftwood Coffee Co. - Peoria, AZ
Great vibes and a devotion to great coffee. True coffee snobs are safe here. Visit, enjoy, you won't regret it.
Spce Coffee - Phoenix, AZ
How lucky we are to have this coffee shop in the NW Valley! Great coffee, great vibes, and regular landing spot for Silent Book Club meetups.
Wild Pine Coffee co - Peoria, AZ
If you love coffee, you know about Cartel. If you're lucky enough to live near one, I'm jealous. I never pass a Cartel.
