The…read morestaff -- shoutout to Jordan & Vivian, who were absolutely wonderful -- are warm, conversational, and genuinely helpful with recommendations. This is the kind of place where you immediately feel like a regular, even on your first visit. What makes Brick Road special goes beyond great coffee. They've created a space that's proudly queer-friendly and welcoming to everyone, full stop. The vibe is cozy and eclectic -- there's a small library tucked in, tasty pastries to go alongside your drink, and when I stopped in, The Golden Girls was playing on a projector. Honestly, perfect. I don't find myself in Tempe often, but Brick Road Coffee has officially earned a spot on my must-visit list every time I'm in the area. Do yourself a favor and stop in.

The line here was crazy long like I had to stand outside and wait to get in and stand in their line inside.

One room is set up with more traditional tables and chairs and the other room has a very cozy atmosphere with couches and comfortable upholstered chairs. The shop was extremely busy, but the noise level was surprisingly not that loud. The barista was extremely customer friendly and even though he had multiple orders before me, he finished my drink in record time! I got an iced Rose Vanilla Latte with oatmilk and it was phenomenal! The drink was a perfect balance of flavors and you can taste the coffee, the coffee tasted rich, bodied, and high quality. The balance of ice and drink was great, the drink did not have too much ice and it was cold enough. Overall I had a great experience with Steve's Espresso and I am looking forward to visiting again and trying their other drinks and their food.

I…read morehave not been to Coffee 48 before, but have only heard good things, so when me and my coworker were nearby we had to make a stop. I ordered the matcha latte with ube cold foam, and oat milk. I really wanted to try the earl grey matcha latte, but unfortunately the earl gray is pre-mixed with 2% milk so I had to go non-dairy. The ube cold foam was actually the perfect flavor, it had the earthiness and vanilla richness that I was looking for to accent the matcha. The matcha itself on the other hand, was a little too milky for my tastes, and kind of got lost in the ube flavor. I would have loved for it to be a little stronger! There was virtually no wait when I came in, but it's definitely a small space with only 2 seats and a small table, so this is a grab-and-go kind of spot. Don't expect a work space! Overall, a good spot with lots of tasty sounding options, and I think I'll be back to try the coffee.

I also asked a suggestion on a sweet tea and they made me a blue jasmine green tea with lemonade and sugar. It was such a pretty purple drink and I would get it again. Tasted just like candy.

I also appreciate the photo booth - although it is $6 for two photo strips, it adds to the fun and whimsy.

The coffee shop has stained glass windows and an extremely unique atmosphere. The barista was extremely friendly and conversational, she made it so any customer felt welcomed as soon as they walked through the door. I ordered a large hot fireside chai with oatmilk.

Happy to be leaving a better review this time around- I took a break from Infusion after my last…read moreexperience to explore some other local coffee places, but the beautiful interior, great music, and the delicious coffee keeps me coming back. I had their regular cold brew with a splash of cream and a Sunrise Sandwich- both were so good! The cold brew had a lovely aftertaste that in my opinion, reminded me of dark chocolate and whiskey. Service was also fantastic- the lovely barista was thorough in her explanations of each cold coffee option to help me find what I was looking for! My sandwich was also lovely- the Sunrise Sandwich on an Everything Bagel is easily my favorite breakfast sandwich in Tempe. The Basil Pesto adds a bit of freshness to an otherwise very rich sandwich. Also stopped in a few more times on my evening walks for a Lavender Haze (seasonal earl grey sage honey drink: EXCELLENT!) and their seasonal energy drink- it was a Sunset Spritz (energy with grapefruit pink cordial): both delicious. Happy to say service has improved greatly. Employees are on task and happy to answer my questions. The drinks on the seasonal menu are very good, and their classics are also great. If you're going to go soon, I'm a big fan of the Sage honey and a big fan of the cordial syrup on the 2026 Spring Menu. Will definitely be hitting Infusion up for some future study sessions. Glad to see Infusion takes customer feedback seriously.

What a beautiful hidden gem in Tempe! I had just finished a…read moredoctor's appointment and was craving coffee, so the name Seattle Espresso caught my attention and I decided to stop in around 9:00 AM. The place was packed, and it was so heartwarming to see so many regulars greeting each other--it instantly gave the shop such a welcoming, community feel. I noticed they've been around since 1993, which is honestly so special to see. The woman at the front even joked that we're not as old as the coffee shop The menu is simple, with some really good specials. I ordered the Russian Twist latte, and wow... it was so good. I could honestly drink it every single day. The coffee was rich, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. The prices are very reasonable, the ambiance is cozy, and it's the kind of place where you can work, relax, or just sit and enjoy the vibe. The little fountain outside adds such a lovely touch too. This is definitely going to be my go-to spot whenever I have an appointment in the area.

Lots of people casually working on laptops here with some EDM/pop playing in background. It's a fun place to work on your laptop if you want. Baristas are super friendly, all around good vibes here. I've already been here twice and it's just as good the second time! One of my go-to coffee shops now. Creative menu for a coffee shop and one of the few coffee shops I know that plays EDM music.

They let me know that they are best known for their cold brews. My drink was good, I got a Lavendar Latte, but I was a little dissappinted that you couldn't taste the lavendar at all. The person who was taking my order warned me that it was extremely perfume tasting (common saying for lavendar drinks), so I was expecting it to be a strong flavor. The coffee was really good though, and they do offer non-dairy milk alternatives. I am going to have to check them out again.
