Late for the Train
Best Espresso Bar in Flagstaff · AZ
Espresso since 1995 in the heart of Route 66
Late for the Train has roasted and poured coffee in downtown Flagstaff since the early 1990s, a husband-and-wife shop that helped define the town's coffee culture. It's known for dark, small-batch roasts, house-made syrups, and from-scratch breakfast burritos and croissants for the grab-and-go crowd.
Locally owned and operated by its founders across the decades, Late for the Train is the kind of independent café Flagstaff regulars organize their mornings around.
