In the center of Phoenix's artsiest neighborhood lies Be Coffee + Food + Stuff. I've visited this cafe a few times and it has made its way to one of my favorites in town. For its convenient location and eccentric drink menu, I never get bored of dropping into this lively cafe!

Be Coffee shares a space with Monorchid art gallery which showcases art from premier Arizona artists. This gives visitors the perfect opportunity to have a cup of handcrafted coffee while enjoying local art! Personally, I almost always make a pitstop here during the First Friday festivities. This shared space offers a unique experience for visitors while they enjoy their drinks.

One of the many things that Be Coffee is known for is its unique drink selection. Apart from your barista favorites like lattes and americanos, this cafe whips up their own creations such as the Bad Boy (espresso and root beer) and the Spicy White Chick (white chocolate mixed with habanero infused cold brew.) Although some of these flavors may raise some doubts at first, I can assure you that they are truly delicious and unlike anything else! This spot is the perfect place when you want to experiment and taste bold flavors outside of the usual coffee shop classics.

This coffee shop serves up fresh pastries, creative drinks, and any pick-me-up you need for your busy workday downtown. The next time you're walking down Roosevelt Row, make sure to pay this fun cafe a visit!
