For all the writers out there in need of a different atmosphere from a Starbucks or the home office, here’s a list for you. We have compiled a list of quiet places to put a pen to paper and relieve stress near Phoenix. Crank out all of your writing in a venue that suits you!
First Draft Book Bar
300 W Camelback Rd, Phoenix, AZ

Japanese Friendship Garden
1125 N 3rd Ave, Phoenix, AZ 85003
