Step away from the metro and busy central Ave and into the warmth and relaxed vibes of @fairtradecafeaz. It's located right at the curve of where 1st and Central Ave come together. It has become my favorite area of downtown Phoenix as it's such a great area to walk and explore. This is a great spot to start the day with coffee and breakfast.
My seasonal iced coffee flight was flavorful but not too sweet. Ma had a tasty egg and cheese croissant sandwich. My chorizo one was loaded with great flavor while still being nice and light. They also offer bagels, burritos, paninis, smoothies and ice cream.
The inside of the cage is cozy with tables and plush seating. The outdoor back patio sits in an alcove of the Roosevelt square apartments. It's a nice little hidden spot, and we really enjoyed starting our day here.

Great latte! Good vibe inside with other creatives working too. If you are wondering about parking, there is a parking garage attached that you can park for free for 2 hours as long as you're only going to the local stores/church below (as of this time of writing 12/2023).
Okay LOVE!! Latina owned coffee shop with such a great vibe - love the cozy couches and little corners to sit and enjoy. The avocado toast was not my fave but still tasty. I also got the Black Magic Women cold brew and I am shocked! The citrusy lemonade and crisp sparkly water pair so well with the cold brew and was a really refreshing drink during this heat wave!
Absolutely one of the best White Chocolate Mochas ever made!!! They put a little bit of cherry in it (since I asked) too and it was just a bliss. I do not know any of their names but they are so nice too!!!
I'm all about trying new foods and places. The service here was great, my husband ordered a croissant and I ordered a bagel with capers and it was delicious! We also tried their cookies and really liked them as well, they have flights of coffee to order and healthy smoothie options
I watched a IG post and thought this place looked cute! I was not disappointed and neither was my client❣️. I loved how the coffee shop was set up with little sections of what felt like personal space. The coffee was yummy too! Wish there was one closer to North Scottsdale
The seasonal drinks this fall are masterpieces. always the best service! highly recommend the cinna butter and sugar n spice.
Great food and nice atmosphere. My go-to when looking for a quick breakfast or place to study.
Recently went to this cafe with my wife. The cafe is located is downtown Phoenix. It has an awesome ambience and good place to sit and spend time. There are good amount of food and drink choices. We had ordered Mediterranean wrap, Pumpkin bread and Hot Chai. Everything was good but we loved the Hot Chai very much.
Fair trade is my favorite stop of the week! I look forward to sitting and getting some reading or light work done each week. I've tried about 1/2 their food menu and never had a meal I didn't like. They use fresh ingredients, you can tell by the taste. Their coffee beans are also ethically sourced and the drinks are all great. Only critique I have for this place, is sometimes the Sunday DJ kind of changes the peaceful coffee shop vibe for me, but that's just my personal opinion. This place is super lay back and I'll keep coming back.
This place is amazing. The coffee is amazing. The most authentic, Hispanic, women owned business is where to find coffee!! The owner is involved and interacts with her customers!! When you rave about the place out the door, like us, you know it’s good!
Great atmosphere to come and get work done. I love the music and everyone working is always very friendly and helpful. Sometimes it can be hard to get a table during busier hours, but if you time it right you should be fine.
Been coming here for more than 3 years and when I tell you I feel at home what with all the aroma of coffee, laughter and camaraderie, this place reminds me of my central american culture. Alex knows her coffee & tea mixes and can never go wrong with their Breakfast burrito! Will never stop coming.
Popped in to try out a specialty cold brew. The woman suggested the Phoenix, coffee with soy milk, cinnamon, and agave. It was ok, would try another concoction next time instead. The decor on this place was great. Kinda hip, but cozy and relaxing. Def worth a visit.
I was having a really hard morning but still wanted it to try out this cafe. I’m so glad I did. After walking in, I felt a bit more at ease when hearing the old Mexican songs my grandma used to play in the morning. The barista gave me the PERFECT recommendations and was so sweet and patient with me. Even when delivering my sandwich and I said “thank you”, they replied with a super sweet “oh, you’re so very welcome” and a smile. For someone that was once having a hard morning, this meant a lot to me.
Excellent coffee great staff, a lot of beautiful art just hanging around, this place makes you feel very relaxed it's very homey. It's a great hideaway to do homework or just get away from everyone and have a good cup of coffee.
