Since 2008 Black Rock coffee bars have been growing to 150 locations in seven states. California, Texas, Colorado, Idaho, Oregon, Washington and of course Arizona. The newest location is having their grand opening today. What formerly was Cafe Rio and Boston Market, Black rock has occupied the stand alone building on the N/W corner of Ray and Alma School Roads. We were delightedly surprised at the short lines on this grand opening morning. The interior has been decorated with cute fall accents. Drive thru is open with extra staffers taking orders on their screens in the parking lot. Sipping on my butterscotch soy breve,I wish my fellow Yelpers a good start to the week!

Fuel Your Story... even at 6:45PM When my friend Diane M. told me about the $2 medium drink Grand Opening special, I knew where I was going after work. Let's start with the vibe: This new Black Rock Coffee is spacious. It was all dressed up for Halloween. There's a massive rattlesnake wall mural that's desert-chic. It was as if Arizona itself winked at me. Fun fact: This spot used to be a Café Rio and a Boston Market, but honestly, Black Rock is the glow-up this corner deserves. Instead of burritos or rotisserie chicken, we now have neon energy, friendly baristas, and drinks that'll punch you in the neck. My Starburst Drink was the perfect mix of sugar rush and childhood. If happiness had a flavor, it would be this. If you need a new place to "fuel your story," stop on by, even if your story is just, "I survived Monday." You'll leave refreshed, energized, and maybe plotting your next excuse for a future visit.

Had to stop in to this new location in Chandler on the SW corner of Alma School & Ray. This location has turned over a couple of times. I remember it was a Boston Market for a long time and then Cafe Rio for a short time thereafter. Do we really need another coffee shop... not sure, but the coffee here is legit! I ordered a latte with a shot of sugar-free Irish Crème syrup and specified I wanted it as a breve. For those not in the know, a caffe breve is just like a caffe latte, but with half-and-half instead of milk. Ever since mainstream nutritionists abandoned the "lipid hypothesis" (all fat is bad!), this has been my go-to (good fats). The litmus test that this franchise passed was evident... I could actually taste the coffee component without having to add a second shot of espresso. And for some reason, the frothiness of the dairy foam was perfect... rich and creamy! The place is clean and brand spanking new, service was great, and now rivals my default choice for coffee in the neighborhood. (I held back one star because I have yet to try other menu items to be completely impressed...)

Solid ice 'blended' drink

We got morning bun and banana bread and they were so good, not too sweet, the morning bun was so flaky and good amount of cinnamon, my husband didn't like banana at all but he turned out really liked the banana bread. I tried their pistachio cold foam latte with half sweet, and it was so good, the cold foam was light and airy, the syrup didn't overpower the taste of coffee. I usually don't drink sweet coffee, just like original hot latte, but I love pistachio so had to tried this, and it was really good. My husband got the hot latte and it was even better. The staff was nice, there was packed in weekend so kinda busy.

I went and got my Playa bowls and then sat down and was gonna go inside and get something to drink, but someone came up to me and said we can't sit there because we have our bowls. I said OK we'll go inside and purchase something and then he said no you can't sit here at all outside food or drinks, which is crazy because it's outside in the public but regardless, I said OK well I can go inside and purchase something first then before I sit down he's like no so what do you think you can buy an espresso shot and just know so if you guys want to go to a place of business, that is actually respectful, don't go here because they're disrespectful rude and he also didn't tell me his name but whoever the old guy is with the eyepatch with shaggy hair. I totally understand that rules are rules. However, there's a total respectful way that people can talk to customers. There's a total appropriate way to address signage. I didn't notice any signage and I would've been more than happy to have either gotten permission to eat on the patio if I would've known those were rules or purchased anything I needed to. He lost business. He definitely lost future customers.

5/30/26: this was our first visit. We have been back twice already. The environment is very chic…read moreand pristine, extremely well decorated. There are usually a couple gals behind the counter, watching the screen while you place your order ... waiting patiently as you peruse their many choices, trying to decide which tea to order. They are super friendly and very helpful. This visit we ordered the ginger chai, vanilla bean cream latte. I preferred the ginger chai, but my sister thought hers was betters. Our second visit we ordered the orange bianco, along with the cream earl grey milk teas. Both also wonderful. Today we ordered the raspberry chocolate milk tea and cocoa cream matcha. I may sound like a broken record, but yes, they were wonderful. It is NOT a boba tea shop; it was, but no longer. Incidentally, if you come the "back" way, entering off Warner vs Dobson, the signage on the back side still says Ni Hao. :-) Since we've already visited them three times, I think it's pretty clear we would highly recommend their teas.

TeaMakers & Company is a fantastic new addition to the locally owned small tea shops in the area…read more They're a Korean owned cafe and definitely exude that Korean cafe style in their operations, decor, and menu. Every detail is thoughtfully curated and you'll feel comforted and welcomed by the employees. They have fantastic tea quality! If you love tea, you will not be disappointed. The croffles are also great. Some other cafes bog down their croffles with toppings and sugar, but here they put just the right amount. They're not cloyingly sweet. I highly recommend getting the sugar on the regular croffle. It caramelizes and adds a pretty sheen and crunch without taking away from the croissant base. It is very clean and quiet inside during less busy hours. TeaMakers has a medium-small amount of seating featuring both hard table tops and a comfy couch sitting area. With their current setup, you can fit a group of up to 4 at their biggest tables. TeaMakers & Company excels in everything already despite being so newly opened. I truly do not have any constructive criticism to give at this time, and I've been there multiple times already.

Not only do they offer a crazy variety of delicious fresh pastries, drinks, sandwiches, breads, etc....they have beautifully decorated cakes that honestly are so good. I have to point out that they have one of the best tasting green tea, and they literally have the best service anyone can ask for. I don't know how she does it, but Ashley brews this green tea perfectly. While most other Paris Baguette locations have the same green tea, they honestly do not taste exactly the same (Phoenix location on Baseline/32nd St is a totally different tea). When Ashley, Kailey, Dania. Richard and Daniel work together, they emit such high, positive and fun energy. They clearly look like they have fun while dealing with so many customers (and some customers are plain mean). These PB employees are so pleasant, efficient and really are an asset to this organization. Love seeing Ashley, Kailey and Dania's smiling face as soon as you walk in, they will definitely greet you. They truly are so sweet. I watch how they connect with each customer, making everyone feel special. The manager Joy has done an excellent job in selecting this team... If you are nearby, give it a try. Ask for Ashley, Kailey or Dania, and I guarantee you will agree with me :-)

Five-star food, but only two-star service. My colleagues and I stopped in for lunch, with each of us ordering individually from the counter, as is the setup there. Unfortunately, several orders were mixed up or incorrect. Overall, it took more than 30 minutes for our meals to be served, with the food coming out one order at a time. We also had to wait while staff located and corrected several orders. The order process could certainly use improvement. While the food was excellent, the delays and mix-ups made the experience frustrating.
