Phoenix Coffee

Reminder that our Coventry will be closing today at 11 for maintenance. We'll be back to regular hours tomorrow!

🚨🚨🚨 New coffee alert! 🚨🚨🚨

For the past few years, Phoenix has been buying coffee from Rwanda's Akagera station. This year, in addition to the Kobakanya separation (more on that in a week or two!), we'd like to welcome the Ikizere project to our coffee program! Ikizere is a group of over 100 single mothers and widows spread across Rwanda's coffee growing regions and represented by eight women in this particular lot from Akagera. Meaning "confidence" in Kinyarwanda, Ikizere is both a traceable coffee initiative and a social support organization, providing it's members with financial and agricultural education, access to short-term loans, clean water infrastructure, health insurance, and a centralized communication and meeting platform for the organization’s women to discuss needs both within and beyond the coffee.

This coffee features all the vibrant fruit-forward flavors one would expect of a dry processed African coffee. Sweet berries turn to tropical kiwi, and a long, full bodied cacao finish rounds out the cup. We look forward to sharing Ikizere with you!

We’ve made the unfortunate decision to close our Warehouse District cafe, effective March 31st. This was a decision made based on a combination of factors.

Fortunately, you can look forward to seeing the entire Warehouse District staff at our East 9th, Birdtown, and Lee Rd locations.

To the folks reading this: we sincerely appreciate your patronage. You are the exception, not the rule. We hope you’ll take the time to visit us down the road at East 9th (1700 E9th Street, less than a mile east) and our four other locations. Our E 9th location will be open from 7:00 am – 5:00 pm starting April 1st - Monday through Friday.

Phoenix Coffee is raising money for Preterm Cleveland Ohio's 2024 Fund-a-Thon!

This year, Preterm is celebrating it's 50th year of operations as Ohio's only independent, non-profit abortion clinic, and we couldn't be more proud to call them a neighbor. Please keep an eye out for cash donation boxes at our registers (as well as QR codes for online donations), which will be up through the end of the National Network of Abortion Funds' 2024 Fund-a-Thon in May. At the end of May, all donations up to $50,000 will be matched by NNAF. Over the next few weeks, we'll have folks from Preterm at our cafes providing further educational and outreach materials.

Abortion is healthcare.

At long last, meet our 2024 spring seasonals! We can't wait for you to try all three as they roll out to cafes this week.

The Spring Garden: Like a crisp morning in the yard planning out flower beds, this bright and refreshing drink mixes herbaceous matcha tea with tonic water, a house made juniper syrup, and mint.

The Bandit: Inspired by those first few cold-but-not-too-cold spring backyard fires of spring, this iced latte mixes our Firebird espresso with a house made Lapsang tea and maple syrup and is shaken over ice to transform these traditionally heavy flavors into a light, whispy beverage.

The French Countryside: For the days of fawning over flights abroad, this warm au lait mixes drip coffee with steamed milk, lavender, and a dusting of cinnamon to transport you from the rust belt to distant flower fields.

Looking for a delicious St. Patrick's day snack? Come by our cafes tomorrow for traditional Irish pastys and sausage rolls from our friends at ! We'll have both corned beef and vegetarian cauliflower curry pastys as well a wonderful fennel seed sausage rolls. The folks at 5 Points have been longtime wholesale partners of ours and we're excited to reciprocate as they grow and develop their own kitchen program! 🇮🇪🍀🇮🇪🍀

The rumors are true! Our favorite Home Pantry jams are now available as a bagel or scone spread option at all cafes. Stop by for a splash of Strawberry Rose or Hot Pepper to put a pep in your step.

It’s an incredible bright blue day across Cleveland today! Makes you want to sip on something that can convince you spring is around the corner.

Have a seat! Have a scone!

If you haven’t already, stop into your friendly local Phoenix to celebrate love by feeding someone you care about a raspberry chocolate scone! You know what goes good with a scone other than our coffee? Love! Call your mom, text your best friend, write a letter to your dog, kiss your cat. Happy Valentine’s Day Cleveland! You’re cute and we love you!

Hour adjustment notice! Tonight, we will be closing some of our locations early to celebrate another year with our staff. To allow time for travel to our staff party, Lee Rd, Coventry, and Ohio City will be closing at 5pm. Additionally, all locations will be opening at 8am tomorrow. We appreciate everyone's understanding as we take the evening to celebrate and thank our staff!

NEW YEARS RESOLUTION: KEEP ON KEEPING ON

We’ve held onto our price structure as long as feasibly possible (frankly, longer), and moving into 2024 we’ve made the necessary decision to revisit, reevaluate, and increase some of our retail pricing. Nobody wakes up excited to make decisions like these, but it's a necessary step in the face of our own operating costs to ensure that Phoenix can continue to provide comfort and quality for another 30(0) years, while continuing to strive towards wealth building for our employee owners.

A few things you’ll notice:
A 12oz cup of drip coffee remains $3.
Non-Dairy Options remain available at no upcharge

NEW YEARS HOURS AND DRINK SPECIAL

We operating on modified hours this weekend for New Years Eve and Day.

Additionally, we're excited to share a little celebratory New Years drink special! Stop by this weekend to try "The Count", a non-alcoholic nod to the Negroni (and it's historically ambiguous maybe-an-Italian-count-but-maybe-not namesake) featuring our cold brew coffee and a few of our favorite NA spirits.

Have you had a chance to try our winter seasonal drinks?? Our bright peppermint mocha and warming gingerbread latte are both made in-house with fresh ingredients--no store-bought syrups in sight! Grab a cup today and spread some holiday cheer.

Happy Halloween from our coffee influencers to yours 🦇🎃☕

Introducing the newest addition to our coffee family: The Ratnagiri Anaerobic Natural! 🌱☕

Meet the Patre family, custodians of a 108-hectare farm in Chikmagalur, India, for nearly a century. Ashok and Divya Patre, the dynamic third-generation duo, have meticulously nurtured the land, blending tradition with innovation to bring you a truly exceptional coffee experience.

Grown at 1,350 meters above sea level, this Catuai coffee is more than just a brew – it's a journey. Harvested with precision, fermented in nitrogen-rich stainless steel tanks on yeast for a remarkable 104 hours, and then sun-dried on raised beds for an additional 29 days. The result? A tantalizing cup with tropical fruit notes that dance in harmony, a tantalizing strawberry-lemonade sweetness that lingers, and a refreshing melon-like acidity that invigorates your senses.

With each sip, you're not just enjoying a coffee – you're exploring the heart and soul of Chikmagalur, India. Get ready to embark on a flavor expedition like no other. 🌟
