Description

Long considered to be one of the coolest art/coffee houses in Phoenix, Mama Java's offers comfy couches and other relaxing seating, Wi-Fi access, and plentiful, spacious tables that make it a great place for students to study.

Although it no longer features any live music (owing to its daily 6 p.m. closing time), the weekly spoken word and poetry session goes down on Saturday afternoons.

If the only thing you know how to pick is your nose, don't fret. The java and jams flow from 7 to 9 p.m., and admission is free. The jam... More »
2004 | BEST COFFEE HOUSE FOR KIDS

There's a ridiculously catchy children's song that goes, "M-O-M-M-Y needs C-O-F-F-E-E, D-A-D-D-Y needs C-O-F-F-E-E," and once you've heard it, you will find yourself singing it -- especially on those mornings when you have stayed up too late the night before working (or drinking) and your kid decides to greet the day at dawn. On those mornings, or any other time you require refueling, you should take yourself -- and your offspring -- directly to Mama Java's Coffee House. Mama Java's is a... More »
