Iced latte
Madison W.

Continently located in the Phoenix Convention Center near Symphony Hall, this locally owned coffee shop is fast and delicious! Should the line get too long from conference goers, they have another location one block away on Van Buren. I've been coming here since it's opening and have always had great coffee and snacks served by friendly baristas who always look like their having a good time. The renovation from the previous tenant (Starbucks) offers a fresh, modern, and grounding environment. Perfect for a quick drink or workspace. I always hit up Press when I'm in the convention center!

A heart? Or a dove smoking a pipe?

This coffee place is on the West Side of the Convention Center (and even connects inside) and was a non-crowded option in comparison to the line at the coffee place inside the convention center. The girl working took my order and took quite a while to make my hot mocha coffee. However, it was absolutely delicious and delivered with a smile. I can't imagine the 1 worker spitting out cup after cup of coffee in the convention center would even come close. This is convenient if you're walking to the convention center from the Hyatt or the Renaissance hotel. Stop here as it was better than Starbucks!

Cappuccino (sorry took a drink before shooting this, it looked even better).

This place is waaaaaaay better than any convention center coffee shop has any right to be. Staff was super friendly, and they made me an awesome cappuccino in a ceramic cup instead of paper which just doesn't work for this drink. Espresso is nice, not bitter but smooth with just the right touch of sweetness.

Press always is a 5 star in my opinion. Stopped in for a pick me up mid day while downtown PHX. I tried a latte with almond milk. A This location is noticeably smaller than other locations but just as delicious.

Was recommended the Espresso Honey Cinnamon and a cherry pastry. So good.   This is Ado

Great coffee and staff were great. Friendly and answered any questions we had. The shop is a little place, woth just a couple tables and chairs. But the taste of the coffee is large!

If you want coffee, this spot is solid along with some delicious breakfast items. I really enjoyed the honey vanilla shaker latte with oat milk. What is lacking is comfortable seating. Nothing inside that works and outside is just okay

Leticia R.

Fast friendly service. Clean. Good prices. Organic tasting. Tried the matcha latte and iced matcha. If you like the drinks sweet, you have to sweeten yourself with sugar packets, unlike the big coffee chains. The establishment is connected to the Civic Center.

The perfect little spot where you can get some work done without feeling like you're stuck in a library.

I've only heard great things and it was such a pleasure to make a visit. The interior is ultra modern, and art-centered. On a Wednesday morning, there was one staff member holding it down and a wait/line with about 5-6 people, so the wait was about 15-20 minutes in total-- including ordering and waiting for drinks. There was mainly only paid street parking options, but it wasn't hard to find any right in front of the shop. I got two drinks: Más and Abeja, to try their matcha and coffee, and really thoroughly enjoyed both. The matcha is a little bit on the milkier side, but I did enjoy that it was completely unsweetened, and leaned on the vanilla cold foam for a light sweetness. I think I enjoyed the coffee more personally, as the honey paired super well with the espresso and oat milk. The espresso is very good. I would come back if I was in the area, I just wish the parking situation was a little different!

I came in the late afternoon to this bakery/coffee house combo, and I was pleasantly surprised with the environment. Lots of natural light and easy-going atmosphere. It was a small shop, but still had good seating. I ordered a prickly pear espresso tonic and got a bag of beans as well. I had a great interaction with the barista and she recommended me some good beans to take home. The tonic itself was very refreshing, and I was happy to have it on one of the hottest days of the year up until then. Lovely vibes and the coffee is great. I think I want to come back to try their other espresso-based stuff to get a good gauge on how a flat white or cortado tastes. I'll definitely want to come back, especially to visit their larger location in Chandler.

Overall, this was a solid coffee shop experience with friendly staff, tasty food, and a clean space that made it easy to hang out for a bit. Inside/Outside - 4/5 The shop was clean, organized, and well maintained. Everything felt organized and efficient, which I appreciated. There was plenty of seating and a comfortable environment to enjoy coffee or get some work done. My only gripe is that the space felt a little too polished. It had more of a corporate coffee shop feel than the cozy neighborhood café vibe I typically gravitate toward. Nothing wrong with that, just a matter of personal preference. Customer Service - 4/5 The staff were nice and kind. Everyone I interacted with was welcoming, patient, and happy to answer questions. Service was quick, and I had my order in hand before long. Food & Dranks - 4/5 I ordered the Peanut Butter Shaker along with the Bacon & Egg Empanada. The Peanut Butter Shaker was smooth, refreshing, and packed with flavor. Definitely a fun twist if you're looking for something beyond your standard coffee order. Plus came with some extra protein. The Bacon & Egg Empanada was warm, flaky, and made for a great grab-and-go breakfast. Nothing overly fancy, but it hit the spot and paired well with the drink. A little small but definitely a great snax. TL;DR - Overall: 4/5 - Clean and organized coffee shop - Street parking - Peanut Butter Shaker was delicious with extra protein - Bacon & Egg Empanada made for a solid snax - Good spot to grab coffee, work, or relax - Only drawback was that it felt a bit corporate versus a cozy local coffeehouse - Would happily stop by again for a coffee and snack

The staff was knowledgeable and took the time to explain the menu, making the experience approachable even for a first-time visitor. I decided to try one of their signature kava beverages, and I was pleasantly surprised by how intriguing and complex the drink was. The flavor profile was unlike anything I had experienced before--earthy, bold, and distinctive in a way that felt both adventurous and refined. More importantly, the effects were exactly as described. As I enjoyed my drink, a gentle sense of relaxation gradually settled in, leaving me feeling calm, centered, and remarkably at ease without any sense of heaviness. What I appreciated most was how the experience encouraged mindfulness and connection. Lacuna offers something refreshingly different from a traditional coffee shop or cocktail lounge, creating an environment where conversation flows naturally and relaxation takes center stage. Whether you're curious about kava for the first time or already familiar with its calming properties, Lacuna Kava Bar is absolutely worth a visit. The combination of a welcoming atmosphere, knowledgeable staff, and a truly distinctive beverage experience makes it a standout destination. I left feeling refreshed, relaxed, and looking forward to my next visit.
