Pink House Botique

While you're enjoying the 'Jolt from your Java' walk a few steps West on Glendale, turn right on 58th Avenue and you'll hit Pink House Botique. This is a GREAT place to buy something fun for yourself or find the perfect gift for someone else. Filled with an eclectic mix of new, handmade, vintage, reconstructed, embellished items and MORE, you'll have a blast shopping and good luck leaving with just one item! I've got my eye on an adorable, handmade 'little black dress' that's screaming at me for a girls night out! New merchandise is added daily so stop in often, you will never be disappointed!

A Shot of Java

Having worked in the coffee industry for a long (LONG) time, I LOVE a great cup of coffee! You'll find that and more at A Shot of Java in downtown Glendale. Located at 7003 N. 58th ave, right behind Pizza Old Roma, A Shot of Java offers incredible coffee, delicious espresso beverages and the best chai around. You can enjoy your joe while taking advantage of their  cozy chairs and wi-fi. Relax in the cozy shop or on the charming, light strung patio. Its a great place to people watch and enjoy our beautiful weather! The staff and owner Lisa are friendly and knowledgable and always happy to answer your coffee questions. On Fridays, have a blast doing karokee from 7-10pm. They also showcase live music. On Saturday April 2nd, come out and enjoy spanish guitar, blues and jazz performed by Nikolas from 1-3pm and folk artists Larry Hill and Friends at 7pm. Hours vary, so check out their website at www.AShotofJava.com . Break away from the monotony of chain coffee shops and enjoy coffee the way it should be enjoyed!

MAIZIE'S

Located on Central, just South of Camelback, Maizie's is not only hip with a great vibe, but the food is incredible! On Monday's, you can enjoy one of their fantastic burgers with fries for only $4! (you just need to purchase a beverage). I enjoyed the best burger I've ever had just this evening! I also HIGHLY recommend the California spinach salad! They have a fantastic wine selection and the staff is laid back and fun. On Saturday and Sunday, they offer brunch with $3 bloody mary's and mimosa's. Maizie's is perfect for date night, or lunch out with the girls. For more information, visit maziescafe.com
