The Black Sheep Coffee+Tea+Smoothies

Downtown Glendale isn’t exactly the nicest place in the greater phoenix area but this coffee shop is a breath of fresh air!! With unique and interesting decorations and owners that are extremely kind you’ll find yourself spending time here instead of quacking grabbing your coffee and dashing out the door. The space is a decent size and they have smoothies, tea, coffee, some sandwiches and a variety of pastries. The shop is dog friendly and there is also a patio if you exit out the back door from the restaurant. If you’re in Glendale, this is definitely the best place to grab coffee!

I love it here. Been coming here for a while and I'm just now realizing I've yet to make a review. On top of the drinks and snacks to choose from the staff are friendly and plenty of space to chill and hang if that's what you wanna do. My go to is always a cold brew but I like to switch it up when I see something on the special menu that catches my eye. Any of there cold foam cold brews have been a hit with me. Oh and use the restroom, even if you don't have to go. 😜

The barista is always smiling and makes friendly chit chat as you place your order. This establishment gives of "Central Perk" vibes from the show FRIENDS. There is a patio in the back to unwind. Certain nights local bands perform.They do host a karaoke night.They serve coffee, tea, smoothies, sandwiches and bake goods. A assortment of stickers are also at the cashier for purchase in addition to free dog biscuits.The decor is very creative one wall has it covered top to bottom with cassette tapes & the bathroom walls are plastered with vinyl records.I enjoy each time I visit this local coffee shop located in downtown Glendale.

Okay I'm taking a second................................. I really struggled to write this review. Not because I didn't like this place but because I LOVED it!! I really loved it!! I don't give many five stars and this place deserves that and more. This coffee shop is located right in downtown Glendale. When you walk into this place you feel the cool atmosphere. So many different white and black art on the walls (picture perfect for your social platforms). Cozy and open sitting areas along with a sitting outdoor patio. Ordered an Americano, pumpkin spice cappuccino, brown sugar latte and a blue berry muffin. All items did not disappoint. This coffee lover was happy! The service was excellent. Speaking to the barista she mentioned they offer karaoke Friday nights. Not only do they offer coffee but they also offer wine and beer. Finally!! Downtown Glendale got it right having this place. Cool, modern, inviting! Like I said before, I really wanted to keep this hidden gem to myself. But I would not make it fair for the coffee shop or anyone else who sees and appreciates my reviews. Do yourself a favor, run to The Black Sheep and get your dose of coffee, wine or beer. I hope your experience is just as enjoyable as mine was.

It's hard to find a good coffee shop...but it seems that this one gets everything right in every way! The coffee is 10/10 from everything on the menu even the teas and smoothies! The people who work here always are courteous and are just awesome people to chat with (Charlie & Abby 10/10!) To add on I would say the best thing about this shop though is just the overall ambience. It's just very chill and calm, somewhere you would want to come to study or hang with friends or just enjoy a cup of coffee. The music they play is also very good and isn't too loud or overbearing in anyway like other coffee shops. Overall, this coffee shop is amazing and there's nothing better than supporting local!

Absolutely love this place.

Food and beverage: simple sandwiches and pastries that are truly delicious. I love the range of tea and lemonade they offer. The matcha is a 10/10.

Service and staff: so kind and accommodating. I never feel rushed like in some other shops.

Atmosphere: lovely! The decor is fun and the music is always great. I love coming here to get some work done, crochet, or hang with a friend.

My new favorite coffee joint. I can test to come on a Friday night for karaoke!

Want to love this place and support local. I love the lady with the blonde hair, whenever she’s there it’s great coffee and the girls work hard and are friendly. However, I had a much different experience today with the young lady with the black hair. She was very rude. I no longer get hot lattes but iced because I do not like the foam. I asked for a new lid because it was quite a bit of foam on my iced latte. She poured half the drink down the sink and added ice. I stated I didn’t need ice I just wanted a new lid. So she adds extra milk. I ask if I can just get a new drink. She spitefully added an obnoxious amount of milk and 4 ice cubes. As someone who frequents this shop, I am beyond disappointed in the service received. From her demeanor to her spiteful ness. Very uncomfortable asking for things as is, but then to be treated in the manner on top of it is uncalled for.

I was unaware that this is an organic "niche" coffee shop when agreeing to go, so I have to write my review based on what they specialize in. The shop was cute with plenty of seating. The staff were kind and helpful. The menu had many concoctions to satisfy any palate, including sugar and gluten free. The only reason for the 4 stars was they do not offer decaffeinated coffe due to the price of the beans and shipping. Since they only use one specific bean it is not an option in their shop. They do offer many delicious pastries! I got the lemon amd blueberry muffin, which was very similar to a Costco muffin. You can't go wrong there! For a drink I had the raspberry tea amd sweetened it with Stevie, the only non-sugar option. It wasn't bad but not something I would go back for. Again, this is a niche, organic shop so please take that into account when going. I'm not into organic so cannot do this place justice in a review. This place needs reviews from those who live an organic lifestyle and need this as an option.

This place is a hidden gem. Delicious drinks and food. Such a nice and relaxing environment. Really friendly staff. Love it and will definitely be coming here more often!

Amazing coffee place that exceeds my expectations of what a grilled sandwich should taste like, their coffee is rich and bold! Absolutely recommend hands down one of the best coffee locations in the valley!
