Gina Madrid is the proprietor of Drip Coffee Lounge, in Central Phoenix. She's one of those unique urban business people that knows how to "recycle" properties. Her coffee lounge, about two years old, is located at 2325 N. 7th Street (just north of the I-10 freeway.
Gina offers her customers free wi-fi in an eclectic, funky shop. The morning coffee is Americano; strong and plenty of it. I had a cup with my two-hour morning e-mail catch up. There is a "private" alcove, Gina calls the VIP lounge. I ran off to a meeting and returned to Drip to have anamazing "Italian" sandwich, for lunch. It was good enough to pass this former Jersey-boy's taste test.
The food's awesome, the wi-fi is free, and Gina's awfully attentive to her customers. Phoenix real estate investors will find this to be a great place to sit down, get connected, and get fed.
PS- My cell is dead so I can't take pictures. I"ll try on my next visit.
