About Coffee News® PHX

Coffee News® PHX is the West Valley's free weekly good-news paper. Every Monday it goes out to 93 diners, cafés and waiting rooms across Sun City, Sun City West, Surprise and Peoria, Arizona, where folks pick up a copy to read with their coffee.

What's in it

Short, upbeat stories, a joke, a brain teaser, a recipe, and ads from local businesses. It's all positive and family-friendly: no politics, no crime, no bad news. Every week a little coffee cup is hidden somewhere in the paper. Find it and you can enter the Coffee Cup Contest.

Three editions

• Edition 1: Sun City & Sun City West
