Flagstaff, AZ
Do you like animals Mary??? Ummmmm...well i'm NOT really a pet person, buuuuuuuut...I love stuffed animals and juicy burgers!!! (Okay, ok, nobody throw anything at me...I would NEVER hurt a dog or cat...I'm just NOT a pet person! The hair, the drool, the smell, THE POOP...it's just NOT my thing! I'm a people person! A baby person! I value humanity so don't judge me until you have changed as many diapers,-old and young...as ME! Jus sayin;)
.
Sooooooooo what's a meat-lovin-girl like me doing 5-staring a vegetarian coffee shop???? Weeeeeeeelllll, that alone, the fact that a meat-loverrrr is floored by the taste and quality of the food at this shop, speaks for itself!!!
.
When i realized that this was a vegetarian coffee shop, despite the high ratings, i really hesitated to try it!!! However, the to-go line going all the way down the street lured me in!!!
.
The good news is that although they are vegetarian and vegan friendly, they do not competely disregard all dairy! It seems that they do use products that animals produce, they just don't use anything that kills a animal! Soooooooo REAL Cheese and REAL eggs !!!
.
All the baked products here were amazing!!! You have to get the biscuit with their homemade jam and butter!!! You have to get the grilled
cheese with pepper jack, cheddar, provolone, spinach, and onions!!!
.
Don't even get me started on all their epic desserts!!! WOW!!!
You must and i do absolutely mean, MUST, get the Macy's Special house signature coffee drink!!! Omw it is soooooooo astoundingly, amazingly, deliciously good!!! It's like a Espresso, steamed hot chocolate- topped with a marshmalllowy-whipped-cream!!! and they have all homemade sauces and flavors!!! Annnnnnnd personally, I think it's one of those drinks thats just better hot!!!
.
The main downside to this place is that I've neverrrrr been in line for less than 45 minutes!!! Also, I would recommend that WHEN they use a meat substitute, that they say on the menu that it is a meat substitution. I read a lot of complaints about that in reviews. Not everyone realizes that it is a vegetarian coffee shop! If you say bacon, bacon lovers are expecting REAL BACON! For people like me that are willing to try something new, buuuuuut still wanna know what I'm putting inside of me! When you say, "Vegan" biscuits and gravy, I wanna know what is used in it instead of sausage!!! Jus sayin!!!
.
Can't wait for another break to head up to flagstaff!!! I hear a Macy's Special calling me for a sip of deliciousness!!! The 2.5 hour drive is worth every sip and every calorie!!!!! How amaaaaaazing will this drink be in COLD COOLER weather!?!?!?!
