Amazing cafe with even more amazing service! The prickly pear lemonade was so refreshing and had great flavor. We also got the egg sando, the eggs were so fluffy and we loved the sauce used on it! We took the sandwich to go since we were running around today but if it was THIS good at home I can only imagine how delicious it would be right out of the kitchen! Also, to our delight, they threw in an apple spice loaf and it was to die for! The flavor was perfect for fall and it was so soft and moist. 10/10! The cafe itself is so cute! It looks smaller from the outside but they made great use of their space. We will definitely be back and we will definitely be recommending this cafe to all of our friends out here. read more

We had a great breakfast here and will definitely be back! We ordered the quesadilla, a blueberry muffin, and two breakfast sandwiches, and everything was delicious. The quesadilla was probably our favorite- the salsa that came with it was so flavorful and really made the dish stand out. One of the best compliments we can give is that our two young daughters, who can be pretty picky eaters, finished everything on their plates. Always a good sign! The service was friendly and quick, and we especially appreciated the atmosphere. Unlike some of the larger, crowded breakfast spots, this place was small, quiet, and relaxing. It made for a much more enjoyable dining experience. Highly recommend! read more

My wife and I visiting Scottsdale and we found Curate Cafe on yelp and picked for its high ratings. It did not disappoint! Everything about the food from the handmade pumpkin spice in the oat latte to the breakfast croissant and the soft scramble brioche were elevated "curated" experiences. The day before I came and had the green chilaquiles frittata which was an elevated take on the traditional breakfast favorite. The servers were all very kind and courteous and the service was quick and the food presentation was minimalistic and on point. The tables are imported live edge wood and add a nice touch to the leather comfortable chairs. Everything was clean and tasteful decorated - love the vibe. Best of all we met the owner and chef Joey who struck me as a humble guy who takes pride in his craft and it shines through in his food. Well done!!! We will be back!! read more

Curate Cafe just might be my new go-to coffee spot in North Scottsdale! Coffee roasted in-house - check Aesthetic on point - check Phenomenal unique breakfast - check Lattes much better than I can make - check What's not to love? Curate Cafe is one of the newer coffee spots in North Scottsdale. After seeing them mentioned on TikTok I had to stop in. I got an iced vanilla latte and breakfast sandwich and was very pleased! They have a variety of breakfast options (fresh pastries, breakfast sandos, and more). Customer service was incredible. Everyone was friendly and they even brought us water to our table as we waited for coffee and food. We met the Chef/Owner Joseph who genuinely was nice and asked us for feedback. He told us a bit more about how they roast in-house and how he built the tables and worked on decorations. Give Curate Cafe a visit! You won't be disappointed! read more

This is a great place to grab a coffee and relax. It is tucked between Chipotle and Pei Wei. Joe the owner is hands on taking order and present. Upon entry we were warmly greeted and provided info to counter order and food would delivered to our selected tables. Tables were created by the owner and are gorgeous! We tried a caramel macchiato- perfect and a Latte. There were several options on milk beyond the usual almond and soy. We had the kale chicken soup. It was full of veggies in a rich chicken broth. We tried the bruschetta- it was wonderful with the arugula tossed in a vinegarette with a sprinkle of orange olive oil ... really great flavors. Next we tried the Merica sandwich. Lightly grilled with turkey and sliced cheese. The pastries are made in house. The coffee is roasted and ground in house. read more

$27 for a breakfast sandwich and a latte. OH, and extra if you want milk with your latte. Say no more , nudge nudge read more

Ordered the strawberry matcha. I do not recommend. There was hardly any matcha in it an it had no flavor. I took 2 sips and threw the rest away. Waste of $9. read more

Menu looks amazing, but I came for a coffee and it is delicious!! Minus one star for the steep price of any coffee variance. Latte $6, change to Oatmilk $1.50, add a flavor $1.50 now add tax. That's almost $10 for one coffee Yowza. But...... it WAS delicious! But was it THAT delicious? Hmmmmm read more

Heard about this gem in the Scottsdale Scoop newsletter and happy I did. Coffee/breakfast sandwiches amazing! Very talented chef/owner. Will definitely return! Great place to support! read more

No wonder it's so highly rated. Stopped here for lunch when working near by, and it was so delicious. A bit hard to find between Pei Wei and Chipotle, but well worth going around the building twice to find it. A gem. read more

Curate Cafe - Mocha coffee and grilled ham & cheese with a touch of raspberry jam. - Cafes Near Me - Scottsdale, Arizona

Friendly service, wonderful food and great coffee! We visit here whenever we are in Scottsdale.

I've seen so many businesses come and go from this spot, hope this one sticks around! Came here this morning for a coffee, it is super cute and clean. Would be an awesome place to come do some work. I got a cold brew with coconut and oat milk for me and a chocolate chip cookie for my husband. The cold brew was good but next time I'd ask for a little less milk! It's on the expensive side too, but nothing extreme for the north Scottsdale area. Would stop by again! No complaints with service, barista was nice and got my drink out quickly! read more

Was so excited to try! Staff wasn't as friendly or welcoming upon coming in. Didn't acknowledge us or the people behind us. The shop itself was very cute and loved the location! We got a coffee and matcha the coffee was sour and the matcha was just basically milk. Likely won't be back. :( read more

The Mumbai Mess with Stone Bread. Delicious scramble that is aptly described as a flavor bomb. The slightly chewy but fluffy and delicate stone bread is as much of a star as the scramble. The staff of this small business is thoughtful and very pleasant. They also cater. read more

Wish I could post photos but my stomach ate before my phone this time Let's start with the biscuits!!! HOME MADE BISCUITS!? I was done for. I was in the area before Thanksgiving and glad I stopped by because they also were selling fresh, made with love pies that my grandpa devoured. Service was quick and efficient and the atmosphere was very welcoming. Cant wait to be back and bring my grandpa to try some other items on the menu! read more

I was in town for a work trip and stumbled upon this place because it was in the parking lot of where we were meeting. The sandwiches were delicious! We saw two of our friends had gotten the Merica, so we did too and they did not disappoint! Super friendly staff who were accommodating to the group of us that came in all at once. I looked at their desserts and am still kicking myself for not getting the millionaire shortbread!! It looked amazing. Next time I'm in town I will make sure to head to this place to give it a try. read more

Such a cute place, stopped for a coffee. Friendly staff, wish i had had more time to stop and eat too! Will def go back!

I wanted to give this Cafe another try based on the food offerings apparently they have nothing to offer on Monday other than the pastries. When inquiring about quesadillas , apparently they don't offer that on Mondays either - so why are you open on Mondays then ? I was also disappointed by the minuscule size of my Cortado., served nonetheless in a beautiful espresso cup, and also by its its price of nearly 6 dollars. Chef Joseph was very nice and welcoming but didn't seem interested in offering anything else !Lastly, I did not find the barista to be very friendly. read more

This is the best coffee shop I've been to in a long time!! The barista was so kind! The coffees were wonderful. Tons of pastry options, the cupcake we tried was delicious. And the ambiance is perfect! It's cozy, clean, and cute! I will be returning 100% read more

Looks like a small coffee shop and it's unassuming but it's a hidden gem you have to check out. I've been to multiple Michelin star restaurants on three continents and I swear these are the best breakfast sandwiches I've ever had. The eggs were cooked perfectly and I was incredibly impressed. Spoke with the owner and I found out this little coffee shop is owned and operated by a private chef, whose favorite meal is breakfast. Joe's passion for food comes through and the menu is executed perfectly.I can't wait to go back and try lunch. Next time you're around Greyhawk or North Scottsdale highly recommend you check out curate café. read more

Curate Cafe - Cappuccino & salad - Cafes Near Me - Scottsdale, Arizona

Pros: Curate cafe is very cute, clean & welcoming. The menu options all sounded interesting & our food was very tasty. Cons: Although the prices are on point with other cafe's the portions were a bit skimpy. Also, I would recommend they consider a side item like chips or salad to replace the sad looking orange slices. Coffee was just ok... I know they are just starting out so I will stop in again to support! Maybe it was just an "off" day read more

Cute/chic coffee shop with a comfy atmosphere. Scottsdale neighborhood, so prices are high. 2 coffee's and 2 food items....$60. Barista was sweet, but silent. After letting her know, this was a 1st visit, she had nothing to recommend or offer. Just blankly stared. Ok. Iced coffee drink was less than outstanding. Food was delish. Glad I tried it....but I wont be a regular. read more
