Comments (0) Best Downtown Lunch - 2000
Coronado Cafe
From the raspberry iced tea to the fresh-baked cookies, lunch at Coronado Cafe is the highlight of any workday.
Nestled in an old house in a historic corner of downtown Phoenix, the restaurant features a breezy patio and cozy rooms decorated with the work of local artists. Diners are seated in old school chairs, but don't expect cafeteria fare. The menu -- eclectic without being intimidating -- features daily soups and entree specials, along with staples like the chicken corn chowder, a meal in itself but great with a mixed greens salad or a Southwestern caesar. Another favorite is the roasted turkey sandwich, spiced up with cranberry-serrano chile chutney.
The staffers are friendly and they'll keep filling your iced tea long after you know you should have returned to the salt mine.
