Froth Coffee Roasters

In the beginning, Froth Coffee Roasters would drive your coffee to you, via a standout silver 1957 converted retro bread van. Now, with its first brick and mortar opened – a stylish spot on McDowell Road and 15th Street – you drive to the coffee, but you don’t have to get out of your car […]

Fry Bread House

The Melrose District, especially the Melrose Curve along Seventh Avenue in central Phoenix, is one of the most dynamic neighborhoods in the city, chockablock with mural-covered coffee shops and colorful new bars. The family-run Fry Bread House is a longtime Melrose staple that far predates the more recent arrivals in the neighborhood. It opened in […]

Fuego Bistro

Tucked away in the courtyard of Fountain Court, behind Apollo’s Lounge on Seventh Street, Fuego Bistro is one of the best-hidden spots in central Phoenix.

The small jewelery shop and gallery is stuffed with handcrafted necklaces, bracelets, beads, accessories, and other gifts made by Gloria Marsiglia and others. […]

Gallo Blanco Cafe

Since Gallo Blanco landed in Garfield it has been a key player in the neighborhood’s growth and dining scene. Nestled in a historic brick building that once housed American Way Market, the white-and-tan brick exterior and large windows create an airy feel. Gallo serves all three square meals, which should always be ramped up to […]
