Good morning,
friend.
Come in.

At Phoenix Cafe on Hickman Road, we begin each day the same way — with fresh bread in the oven, a well-stocked pantry, and a genuine welcome for anyone who walks through our door.

Our Story

A place to gather,
a table to return to.

Phoenix Cafe opened its doors on Hickman Road with a simple conviction: that a community deserves a place where the coffee is poured with care, the bread is baked with patience, and every visitor is known by name.

What began as a neighborhood bakery has grown alongside Urbandale — expanding our pantry, deepening our craft, and keeping the same warm welcome at the heart of everything we do. We source from local farms, partner with regional producers, and bake in small batches so nothing leaves our kitchen without a standard we'd set for our own table.

Whether you're stopping in for a morning coffee and a flaky croissant, picking up ingredients for Sunday dinner, or settling in for a quiet afternoon — this is your kitchen table. We're glad you're here.
