Reviews of monOrchid (Photo Studio)

Pam Baker

Great, unique place for a meeting or gathering for any group

Mark Holgate

A funky art/banquet hall/whatever else connected to a coffee shop and little store. The cofee was good and the cookies were fantastic, I'd like to come down here when they have an event going on because it's such a huge space.

I really enjoyed my brunch here. Friendly service awesome food good coffee. Being that I am one of the few people who remember what this part of town use to be like. I can honestly say I'm proud of what this part of downtown now offers. Its beautiful on roosevelt now and with interesting restaurants and shops popping up all over such as the monOrchid it's a real treat to explore the roosevelt area.

Very cool space

We are so thankful for Kyu and Krissy. They absolutely were instrumental in making sure our day was perfect. Krissy was brilliant in dealing with our constant stream of questions and requests. She is an all-star and we are so glad she was on our team for our special day. The food was amazing, all of our guests continuously commented on various aspects of the food weeks after the wedding. The event staff were very professional yet personable and attentive. The reception went off without a hitch thanks to their hard work, preparation, and ability to execute. I am sure there were issues that popped up day-of but we never knew because Krissy was on it! Additionally, Kyu seems to know everybody in the service industry and every vendor that we selected based on his recommendation far exceeded our expectations. Thanks Conceptually Social for making our day so special! MonOrchid was the perfect venue for our wedding. From the moment we first toured the facility we knew it was perfect. The industrial style added a lot of character but was not in-your-face. We loved the artwork that was on the walls that month. The various studios offered a lot of options to customize the layout for the ceremony and the reception and we could not have been happier.

Great venue for the Chocolate and Art show. I have been the past 2 years. So much talent and love goes into it.

Nate & Tessa Agency

Perfect!

Place is very unique and fits right in the Roosevelt District area. Sadly, the Owner is a difficult jerk that seems to not get along with anyone including the city. He'll lawyer up and play hardball before you know what is even happening. Too bad since this little complex really is neat. I hate to give money to someone that treats people like crap.

Sam Clark

Great curated everything from businesses to art!

Camille Sledge

Beautiful venue. Multi-practical Space.

Lisa Balzotti

I've been renting office space at The MonOrchid for a couple years now and absolutely love it. It's a beautiful multi-purpose building with desks/office space, event space, an art gallery, an awesome cafe and more. It has great energy and great people!

Mari Sol

I enjoyed an amazing breakfast at Be Coffee. I'm looking forward to the next concept which will be opening next door called The Dressing Room!

I've had an office here for (OMG) 3-4 years I think? This place is great for a million reasons, but I'll list some top ones here: -If you like the idea of "co-working" but not forced "collaboration," this is for you. It's great having the energy of other businesses around, but you don't have to find ways to work together, like some of the other co-working spaces promote. -Be. Coffee downstairs is BOMB. Nice people, great food, affordable, open early. They even run your lunch up to your desk! -Affordable desk/office suites - Considering that there's parking, mail is easy, an impressive conference room, printer, and other perks, it all pencils out to a good deal. -Arts shows and events constantly, so it's kinda cool if you're working late to have the energy of First Friday or a dance class in your building. -I've known Wayne Rainey (the building's owner) for years. He's actually one of the reasons I rent there. I like knowing that my rental dollars are helping him keep the lights on inside such an iconic building. Don't listen to these people accusing him of things - they're probably just jealous that he's one of the most creative people in the city. Although, he does wear a Fitbit, and it's ridiculous that he needs a computer to tell him how many steps he's taken today...

Art Detour...

Christel Schaneberg

Good atmosphere! Great talent!

Mama Jay

Very chill place. I went on a Saturday morning around 7 to check out "Ain't Nobody Praying for Me" by Antoinette Cauley. The cashier was very sweet and welcoming. The cold oatmeal was BOMB!!! Bathrooms were clean. I will definitely come here again!

Jon Vöge

Great First Friday opening at Monorchid. Interesting and very modern installation art.

The Mass

Beautiful works of art from local artists.

Matt Priebe

I Had an Art show at Monorchid and I found the experience most satisfying . The owner and assistants were extremely helpful and knowledgeable. They offered great advise without forcing any of their own direction. The owner Wayne Rainey is a colorful character with an elegant soul and a undying affection for Downtown Phoenix.

Beautiful place! Great way to start your weekend on a First Friday !

Jesse James Ferrell

Ever since I've started going to 1st Friday's MonOrchid Gallery has always been my favorite. I love the flow and space that Wayne has created. I love the variety. The coffee shop is the best and you must try one of their fresh baked home made chocolate chip cookies. ABSOLUTELY delicious. The art is always intriguing and thoughtfully placed and lit. The crowd is fun to watch. Make this your first gallery of the evening. Wayne, I love the workspace concept upstairs. GENUIS!!! Anyone would be LUCKY to work in this space. Go check it out.

I went to Roosevelt Row on first friday. The Monorchid is a nice spot in a very cool neighborhood. Interesting artwork, great food, beautiful plants. Fun co-op space.

Chandra Ferguson

Attended the chocolate and art show here and was not disappointed! Been here a few times during first Friday and always and amazed by the space and the acoustics.

John Louvau

Nice downtown location

Cherese Perez

Went to The Celebration of Chester Bennington's Life....Not from the area but the venue has a really zen vibe with so many different drink choices! People were fantastic and the customer service was so good. The event is what brought me there but I will be in the area more often and definitely plan to make sure I visit this place every time. Loved the atmosphere, drink selections, things to snack on and the decor. Customer service is great as well.

Kristie Guess

Great place to for first Friday...Arial yoga, coffee and cookies...cool plants to bring home and the dressing room is a wonderful place to have dinner...so many positives about monorchid!

Madison Hicks

I like the prices and their sea salt chocolate chip cookies are so good! The best part was the fact they have really good green iced tea with FREE REFILLS!!

Jeffrey J. Quatrone E.A.

Great reuse of an old placr

Scott Sendelbach

Was not worth the $25 movie ticket. Had to sit in fold up lawn seats. Drinks were too expensive for thier size. Small and intimate is nice but not when the people across the way are talking loudly and laughing through the entire movie.

richie molina

Be coffee is great and so is their Sammy.

Vu Phan

Bathroom game on point. Like 20 rolls of TP on deck!

Julian Madrigal

awesome art shows

Jonathon Vento

Such a great curated experience. Great owner. Great vision.

Lucas

Never too stuffy, Monorchid is like the working man's art gallery and studio.

Jameson Neuhoff

My company offices at monOrchid. We love the dynamic creativity that the location offers. The incredible support staff and food and beverage venues enhance the overall experience. The local vibe creates an awesome atmosphere and we love working with the owner, Wayne, to find thoughtful solutions to any of our project needs.

Antonio Montana

Very cool place with unique history inside the Roosevelt row.

Ryan Knoll

Love this place, the coffee shop inside is great and they always have cool events going on. Dig it.

HiEdie Creations

Great space! Wonderful seeing all the artist. Fun event. Let's do this again.

R.D. Davis

One of the coolest places to eat, lounge and they have a great coffee bar!

Dustin Dluhy

A unique venue to visit right on Roosevelt Row. Friendly staff in restaurant and coffee shop.

Holley Mesler

MonOrchid is a Hidden Gem, in a city that could use as much Cool, as it can get. If the beautiful art surrounding the building doesn't invite you in, maybe the free music, Wednesday's 6-8 will do the trick. The Stakes a Jazz/Rap band ,that Has so many wonderful, working parts going for them. From vocals to lyrics, rythem to style. The Stakes possess a charisma that feels like a home for any soul that considers music a religion.

Matthew McCullough

Awesome rotating art, great little coffee shop and cute little restaurant with amazing food and cocktails called Dressing Room.

Stacy Smith

My favorite coffee shop/cafe downtown! Their espresso is my go-to when I need a 'pick me up' because it is bold but not bitter at all. If you like big, gooey chocolate chip cookies this is also the place you need to be! If you need some protein, you cannot go wrong with the All Day Burrito! It is a breakfast burrito filled with eggs, avocado, bacon and some of the most magical corn I have ever eaten! Seriously. The corn kernels are huge but somehow still sweet and flavorful! The people who work here are some of the warmest folks in town! This place is really a treasure! I hope it will be around for years to come.

Elizabeth Wilcox

A great gallery space, attached to a great little botanical shop and a wonderful little restaurant. Whether you're wandering through on a First Friday gallery stroll or coming out to an event, it's an interesting, dynamic space to host the art being featured. There's a very small parking lot reserved for members or ticket-holding event-goers behind the gallery. Otherwise, you may be able to snag some free street-side parking in the area.

Nate Williams

Incredible wedding venue!

Jami M. Guler

My 1st internship was at this Gallery! I love this space!

david melendez

Had a great time!

Michael Lewis
