You'll find Carefree Coffee in the Mariachi Plaza. This is another popular coffee house or locals and visitors. I ordered a blueberry muffin. It was quite tasty. Others were enjoying their coffee and a conversation. Another place where they don't do not rush you away many people were enjoying the outside patio. Shared parking lot. read more

Ride across from the UTV place. Very cute coffee shop with the most amazing sandwiches! Food was delicious and the service was great! Found this place by chance. The turkey and avocado sandwich was outstanding. They gave a side of cucumber salad that was phenomenal. read more

Another amazing favorite: please order the Aztec Mocha Macchiato. (I order a large Aztec mocha macchiato latte with oat milk, light mocha). I don't even like mocha drinks but this drink isn't overly chocolaty has a delish finish with an amazing kick of some Aztec heat. I'm told it's basically Mexican coffee. It's sooooooo good. Ugh I'm so sad that it's closed right now and I can't get one. read more

When a friend suggested Carefree Coffee Roastery for a meeting spot on a recent Saturday morning, I looked it up and saw a lot of positive reviews. I was psyched to try it and it did not disappoint! Our party of six arrived a bit after 8:30am and placed our orders and then sat down on one of the outside picnic tables... We enjoyed our drinks (a flat white with oat milk for me) and eats (quiche of the day for me) and did some chatting. We also did a little art project and no one seemed to mind... It was a delicious and memorable morning. If you find yourself in the Carefree area, check this place out - it's a hidden gem for sure! read more

Carefree Coffee - Chai latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Cave Creek, Arizona

So, I initially went to another coffee shop in the Spanish village thinking it was this one...I was so disappointed with that one that I took the 5 minute (no straight path) walk from there to here to frequent this one, and I'm so glad I did! It's one of a few spots in the area where the staff was genuinely friendly and welcoming (atleast during my stay in Carefree). My oat milk Cortado was delicious, and although my lox bagel was not the best I've ever had, it satisfied my craving. Grabbing a dragon fruit smoothie for my walk back was my best idea yet. Not too sweet and flavorfully fruity, I've been craving another since I left Carefree! The knitted banisters, and cozy intimate space were definitely an inviting change, and although it faces the parking lot, the covered outdoor seating is a perfect alternative given the cooling weather. read more

This is a great coffee shop! Excellent cup of coffee and a very good bagel with lox. If I didn't live in Pennsylvania I'd probably have coffee there every morning. read more

Wonderful outdoor seating. Highly recommend the oat milk latte and the cinnamon brioche tasted just like a brown sugar pop tart, very tasty.

Awesome tasting food without any side effects or after taste! The coffee paired well with the lox on a gluten free bagel. read more

Cute, local-ish spot. Great place to stop by if you're hiking in cave creek/carefree. Lots of people seemed to stop by on their runs/bike rides with dogs. Indoor seating is ok, but outdoor seating was really nice when the weather was temperate. Solid pastries. Matcha latte was fine, we ordered the blueberry matcha. It wasn't authentic, but I didn't expect it to be super ceremonial grade. Will return if I am hiking in the area. read more

Carefree Coffee - iced and hot blueberry matcha lattes. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Cave Creek, Arizona

Great Find Near the Resort - Definitely Going Back We found this place on Yelp while staying at a nearby resort and were looking for something with good organic options and matcha--and honestly, it did not disappoint. The egg burrito we got was delicious, and we also tried a banana-on-bread type of dish (I don't remember the exact name), but it was equally amazing. We grabbed some matchas too, and they were really good. For the price, the quality, and the solid selection of organic items, this spot is definitely worth going back to. I believe this is a small, family-owned business too, so I love being able to support local. We'll definitely be coming back. read more

Carefree Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Cave Creek, Arizona

Loved this area outside of Phoenix, and was excited to sit outside to sip coffee with mountain views. Cool vibe. Coffee was beautiful in the cup, a latte decaf. But...I believe they served me a regular coffee, was buzzing in about 10 minutes. Also, the large cups are really cool but not conducive to keeping the coffee hot, as the coffee wasn't served hot to behind with. Quite disappointing considering 2 coffees were over $13.00. We'll try again different place next time. read more

This is our favorite coffee shop to visit in AZ, without a doubt. Lars and the entire staff are so kind, know just about everyone who walks through the door by name (and order!), and take pride in their high quality coffee and food. Matcha is delicious, too! They have gluten-free options and some of the best muffins you'll ever try. Carefree Coffee roasts their own coffee beans and uses ingredients from local shops. My husband's favorite thing to get is the "Jam Burrito," which is a unique breakfast burrito that you won't find anywhere else, and it is served with a fresh salsa. I try to get something new every time, but my recent favorites are the chicken salad, egg and cheese breakfast burrito, and their daily quiche. Looking forward to coming back and sitting on the patio! Such a cozy, inviting atmosphere. read more

I received a bag of their coffee for a gift and now I drive about 30 mins each to get their fresh coffee grounds! The house blend is my favorite. The workers are always friendly and nice, the shop itself is cute and always clean! Highly recommend for those new in town. read more

Stopped by for a quick breakfast. Ordered a flat white and a breakfast bagel w/ cheddar. Everything came out quickly and the flat white was spot on. I stopped getting flat whites at most coffee shops because they just give you a latte. A flat white is not the same and I can tell by the weight if it's made correctly. The breakfast sandwich was awesome. They used a couple of eggs and added plenty of cheddar. Great breakfast for a really fair price. The customer service was also excellent! read more

Fantastic coffee we love this place first time trying sandwiches today as well and it was sooo delicious super nice staff who is friendly and genuine. We are out of town were but this is always a stop we hit while we're here. the outdoor and retro aesthetics are super nice and the ambiance is very community like. read more

Carefree Coffee - Avocado toast - fabulous ! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Cave Creek, Arizona

We have lived here for 2.5 years now and came from the Seattle area also known as the land of coffee. I am very particular about the taste of coffee. I cannot rave enough about our local Carefree Coffee. The location is very good with lots of parking available. The staff is exceptional with always being friendly, helpful and engaging. The ownership is equally as engaging. What I appreciate about Lars is not only is he caring of his customers but of his canine customers as well. He provides great treats but also individual doggie bowls. My golden loves coming here. I appreciate the attention to detail of Lars and staff not only to their customers but to their coffee and food selection as well. The taste and quality of the coffee is great. The pastries, breakfast and lunch options are wonderful as well. Carefree Coffee is always my first choice!!! read more

Nice employees. BEST LATTE EVER. Good espresso and macchiato as well. Cute little shop. Nice seating as well!!! Highly recommend:)

Drove out here and didn't even realize at first that it's in the same parking lot I adopted my dog in 3 years ago! Was in the mood for some type of tea latte, their superfood latte options all sounded perfect! I ordered an iced blueberry matcha with oat milk. It was ready fast! It was super delicious, I tried to savor it but it was hard to because it was so good! Staff was nice too, and this place is cute. A great place to sit outside and eat or drink coffee in a nice day like today. Very cute here I'd come back! read more

Hubby and I, and our pug stopped in for a light breakfast and coffee. I ordered a flat white and hubby got an Americano, and we ordered the avocado toast also. Service was quick & friendly.

No picture of our food or coffee - they were gone too quick! But I did get a picture of our pup sitting patiently on their umbrella stand, waiting for more goat cheese from our toast :) read more

What a great coffee shop, located in Carefree, Arizona . I got a Matcha hot tea and it was perfect and beautiful and the ambience on the patio is just so pleasant.
