Black and white cafe - Glendale, Arizona

The food was AMAZING!! I had their waffles which was absolutely delicious!! Highly recommend it! The plating of their food was great, highly appreciated it and you can tell the ingredients they used were fresh! My mom had the breakfast club sandwich which was also amazing and the potatoes that came with it, oh my!!!! Their potatoes were *muah* delicious!! The amount of food you get is also worth what you spend. 🙂

Coffee was great, service was great and quick!!The cafe is a bit small but I have to say that I appreciated the fact that it didn’t feel overly packed inside. There is seating outside as well. We came on a Sunday around 11 am and we got lucky, it wasn’t as packed inside as it has been for other people.

I will definitely be back again!!

I met up with some friends at this cafe and it was perfect for us. We went on a Friday morning at 9 and the inside seating was full, but it was a beautiful day and we sat at one of the outside tables and really enjoyed it. Because they were so busy when we arrived, the service was just a bit slow, but we weren’t in a hurry.
Two of us ordered the Phoenix omelet with a side of bacon, and one ordered the American breakfast.
The portions were hardy and tasty. Their potatoes are soooo good. And the bacon is thick cut and plentiful. There is a nice choice of toast options, we ordered sourdough and ciabatta between us and were not disappointed. Love the inclusion of the fresh fruit cup on the plate.

We will definitely return to Black and White Cafe!

Stopped in for xmas day breakfast while traveling.

Food - perfect. Big size, excellent preparation and taste.

Service - perfect, friendly, appropriately attentive.

Ambience - perfect, a bit loud inside for me, but the patio was a serene and visually appealing retreat.

Coffee - since the roast there own, i was curious, its excellent. I had a mocca latte with coconut milk. A++

Wonderful little spot.

I decided to stop in today (Friday) for lunch while my tires were being rotated. It is hit and miss with the crowds here, but today was quiet, so I was able to do some work over lunch.

The chicken salad croissant was my first there and delicious... I prefer less creamy and more currants (cranberry), but overall, it hit the spot.

The owner, Doru, is the chef and very talented.

Their coffee is always good, and I'm picky about my coffee.

Today, I had the most cherry, pleasant, and gracious server. However, one thing about Black and White, their staff is always friendly!

If you're a child of the 80s, you will love the music here 😄💙

I've been coming here since this café opened about 8 years ago even though I had long moved out of this neighborhood.

If they had gluten-free food options, I would send my GF local patients here. I keep crossing my fingers each time I walk in. But I never walk out without a coffee in my hand.

If you are planning a visit here, I suggest a call ahead. This is a small family business, and they need a break, too. I have driven by a few times over the years to find it closed during normal business hours.

But it will always remain my favorite old neighborhood coffee stop when im not traveling abroad. 😊☕️

I had really high hopes coming here. The food looked amazing and it was right next to REI where we wanted to shop. We were quoted a 30 minute wait for food after ordering but it was much closer to an hour. We found hair in 2 of our dishes but didn’t want to send it back due to the long wait. They also seemed to be out of several things. We probably won’t come back. The restaurant was clean and so was the bathroom.

A hidden gem! It's a cozy place. Lots of patio seating. The music inside is a tad too loud but great selection. Coffee is strong but really good served hot. The BREAKFAST POTATOES are the best I've ever had. I'm super picky about potatoes and these are cooked to perfection - creamy & well seasoned. We had the Classic Benedict also delicious. Thick ham - perfectly poached eggs. So yum! Prices are what you'd expect from a small shop charging what they need to keep the doors open $15 - $18 per meal. We will definetly be back!

This is a very sharp classy place, from the decor to the silverware, to the staff. I did not have the coffee, but had the hot chocolate. Delicious. The breakfast was abundant, and very good. We'll prepared quality food, also delicious. Loved it.

I am a breakfast fan, favorite meal of the day, and it saddens me to give this honest but low review. Service was the demise of this place.

We were initially met with a very flustered annoyed staff member. He wore a blue Happy Dad snapback hat and had tattoos on his arms. On more than one occasion we were informed it was a busy day with lots of reservations (mind you as a first time guest the website nor any communication in the restaurant indicate you should make reservations). Unfortunately we were not the only walk in guest met with that experience.

Kristen, however, complete opposite. Amazing and personable. She explained the unique dining experience (1 chef, made from scratch, the works). Amazing job!

Operation wise, the front door for sure needs some maintenance. I dined right next to it and as individuals came in and out the door slammed abruptly, which impacts an attempt to relax and enjoy dining in.

Food, pancakes and sausage were great, the middle could've been cooked a tad more but the edges were too perfection! The Kahlua French toast a hit.
