If I were to call Chiaro Coffee the hottest new thing to hit the Permian Basin or even the best kept secret, I'm legit afraid that I might even be under selling it! Back when I lived in Albuquerque or when I've traveled to Santa Fe, Seattle, NYC, Houston, etc, this coffee trolley is the type of unique experience that I would hunt down for a one-in-a-lifetime vibe and I can't believe it's right here in OUR backyard so we can experience it all the time!!! First of all, inside of this real life functioning trolley you will find actual coffee lovers ready to guide you through their menu of handcrafted beverages that easily beat out anything I've had before! They want you to love everything that passes your lips and treat every customer, drink, and scone like it is the most important one ever! My husband is beyond picky when it comes to coffee! His favorite drink is a white chocolate mocha, he rarely strays from it, and even then he probably throws out an average of 60% of the white chocolate mochas we get him. Today I surprised him with a Strawberry Mocha from the magical Chiaro Coffee trolley... knowing the gamble at stake... and he said it was the best coffee he's ever had! I always drink a hot Americano with sugar or just plain hot espresso shots with sugar. That's it. Today I went wild and did a COLD Caramel & Lavender Latte with an extra shot. Let me tell you - it blew my mind! And possibly changed my drink order forever! My husband and I also split an orange chocolate chip scone that I swear was made straight in heaven! Our verdict? The trolley is currently parked approximately 5 minutes from our house and we think that's too far away, even with it's adorable outdoor seating set up! We need it parked at our residence ASAP because we can't live without this coffee in our lives and our bellies on the regular! Everyone in the Permian Basin needs to drop what they are doing and rush over to get in their coffee trolley experience NOW! read more

I don't write reviews often, but this is a must. This place is excellent! My family and I found it when we were traveling. We were intrigued by the look of it, so we decided to stop because it looked so unique. First, they were very hospitable me! As soon as we unloaded our children, before we could even make it across the parking lot, a woman (whom we later learned was the owner with her husband) brought out a box of Jenna blocks and scattered then on two tables for our kids! And they had a blast building things and running around outside. Also, everyone there, the owners, workers, and others customers included, was so kind! What we intended as a brief coffee/bathroom stop became a 45-minute, make new friends/let the kids play for a while/find a new always-stopping-here-if-possible gem-of-a-coffe-shop stop. And now, about the coffee. If you're hoping the drinks taste as good as the trolly is unique, you won't be disappointed! A dirty chai with almond milk is my drink of choice and I usually judge a coffee shop by how well they can make it. I think Chiaro has the best dirty chai I've ever tasted. It was phenomenal! The owners shared that they make their own mix in-house with real spices (not a syrup or a powder) which took them 9 months to perfect. You can taste the difference in the detail and effort! My wife and I also got a couple seasonal drinks as well - lavender carmel latte and something else we don't remember. Everything wasn't just good, it was REALLY good! We're looking forward to passing through Odessa again. read more

Awesome coffee and teas! I got the Desert Flower Latte, which is a tea latte with vanilla and rooibos tea. Rooibos is one of my favorites and not something you see on menus very often. Its was great! I'll ask for less syrup next time (I don't like sweets) but otherwise was pretty happy. My wife got the strawberry mocha and was equally impressed. Can't wait to come back and try more. read more

Chiaro is my go-to coffee shop. Excellent coffee. Even better service! The owners & staff are great!

We stopped here for coffee when we visited Odessa for the first time. Chiaro is in a cute trolley located in the parking lot of Roots by Black Tulip, a flower shop that also has an outdoor garden center. While there is no seating in the trolley, the baristas will bring out your drinks when ready, even finding you if you want to shop the garden center as you wait. The coffee seems high quality and well worth the wait. You wait in line outside until it's your turn to order, then come onto the trolley to look at the menu, give your order, and pay. I ordered the Hygge latte, a concotion of caramel and cardamom. As I get older, it is easier for me to get more overwhelmed by drinks that are too sugary, but this had the right blend of sweetness. I only wish I had ordered a large. While we do not live in Odessa, we will definitely return for coffee here if we are ever again in the area.​ read more

The owners make their own syrups/flavorings. They always have exciting new items on their menu.

BEST COFFEE IN ODESSA. Great little coffee place in an old trolley bus converted to a coffee shop. Staff was cheerful and attentive, while producing a VERY good coffee, in this case an Americano. read more

Best coffee in town without a doubt. Amazing service and super friendly staff, with such a cute space inside . Absolutely love it.

Unique and fun coffee experience. They converted a trolley into a coffee shop and it's really cool to see. You order in one door and then pick up at the other . We aren't locals but we noticed that when we returned the next day the couple remembered us as well as called most people around us by their names (pre coffee order). They are very personable and kind. Most importantly, the coffee was fantastic . My husband got three different kinds over two days just to try some of their unique flavors. I'm a creature of habit and tend to get the same thing every time (vanilla latte with almond milk) and it was one of the best if not the best I've had in a long time. Always thankful for good coffee, unique experiences, and supporting hard-working kind people. read more

Jeremiah made the best Latte I've ever had. Great customer service and really cool atmosphere.

My husband and I really enjoy good coffee. They had homemade syrups and very good espresso! I love cardamom in drinks and you don't see that much so that was awesome to see on the menu. The service was so kind too! They made sure we loved what we ordered! The actual shop was so cool looking and every detail gave it an awesome feel. read more
