Espresso. Single origin ONLY. Always.
Spri J.

Magnificent coffee cafe. I don't love the location, nor the parking arrangement. Using the Yelp directions, Google Maps sent me to a hotel instead. More than once. I had to call and ask for the address. I tried explaining the issue to the staff, but it seemed to work for them. Anyway, if you have a similar issue, search for Skywater Apartments instead and you'll find this place easily. Great coffee, great Baristas, great atmosphere. The bathroom is totally weird - you've got to travel through the building mail section to get there. Okay, in all honesty, there are a few things to criticize. But I enjoyed the experience so much on both visits that I'm dishing out five stars regardless.

Peanut butter balls

Fantastic breakfast! I had gone for a long walk and found myself pretty hungry. I ordered an original burrito with no potatoes. This did not disappoint. It was served with two packets of Cholula. It was hot and fresh made. It was absolutely what I needed. There was crunch bacon bits and just so much flavor. I also had a cortado that was fantastic. For a road snack I grabbed some of their peanut butter bites. These were also perfectly sweet and delightful. The location was clean, not too big or not too small. It was very modern and I really liked the big windows. I would definitely come back to try more of the foods. Best service ever as well - just friendly and bright. I could see this as a daily fix type of place. They appeared to have a mobile order as well.

Love press. This location is not a spacious and cozy and most but the coffee is still damn good nonetheless. The early edition will always be my favorite, but I will admit the estate blend is a nice addition. OG burrito is delicious as always.

Service was great (5), espresso itself was great (5), food was average (3- I got the burrito, the eggs were pretty dry and it was pretty bland- I'd reccomend cross utilizing some adobo for the burrito options) - I love a sweeter avocado toast with my morning coffee- maybe a fig and goat cheese? The food options were all savory outside of the pastries

Drip coffee and a delish pastry
Sachiko M.

I had a regular drip coffee with a delicious cranberry scone. He had a latte with oatmeal milk and the pastry on the pic. He was very pleased and our server was very welcoming and nice. The background music was very soothing. Super relaxing place. TY :)

latte with honey
Angela H.

The coffee here is pretty good! This shop is located on the first floor of the Skywater at Town Lake apartment complex, and you have to park either to the side of the building or in the parking garage when you first arrive (the shop is located in the front of the building on the ground floor). Seating is mostly available inside the store. The baristas were very friendly and I got my drink quickly after I ordered! I got a latte with oat milk and honey, and I enjoyed my drink thoroughly. I also got a chocolate chip cookie made by Proof Bread, which I think was ok (kind of cake-y and not my favorite chocolate chip cookie in the area)? They also have free wifi available and a bathroom tucked away next to the mailroom. Overall, this is a great place to study or get work done with a cup of coffee.

Before visiting the Phoenix area, I asked friends for recommendations of restaurants, coffee shops and places to visit. Press appeared on the list several times so it was a no-brainer when we wanted coffee one afternoon. This location is on the main floor of an apartment complex. It's bright and airy, thanks to a wall of windows at the front. There are plenty of seating options, though we arrived very close to closing so we got our coffee to go. I ordered the espresso honey cinnamon shaker. It was delightful - not too sweet and the coffee flavor was still obvious. Too often with flavored or sweetened drinks, you lose all the coffee flavor and are basically drinking a milkshake. Not the case here. Even my husband, who generally dislikes flavored or sweetened drinks, agreed this was excellent. He had a cappuccino and an espresso, his standard order when trying a new coffee shop. He enjoyed both. I regretted not getting some whole beans while we were there, especially when we later learned that through complete coincidence, the family member we were visiting had also been to Press for the first time just a few days before us and was also at this location. The barista was wonderful. She was busy - there was a line the whole time we were there - but she was cheerful, kind and kept things moving for everyone. Highly recommend Press if you're in the area. We'll make a point of stopping in when we're in town visiting family next.

breakfast sandwich, matcha latte
Blanche G.

The matcha latte is the best one that I have ever had. I love pairing it with oat milk. If you want some extra caffeine, you could add one or two espresso shots. Their breakfast sandwich was amazing too, and it was only $5. The service was always friendly and fast. And you can bring your dog inside, which is very thoughtful.

Awesome coffee here and a nice interior to chill and read or computer things. The apartment complex is lucky to have this attached to their building. Very easy to access as well. Coffee is strong but has that nice roastiness to it that coffee lovers will be pleased about. I got a bag of it to go so I could brew at home and it's still the same as from the shop. Also got their fruit bar which is one of the tastiest pastries I've had, goes great with the coffee. Found out this is a chain of local shops in the Zona area. The state is lucky having this!

My daughter and I walked up to the counter ready to order, and I knew I wanted a mocha--but I wasn't completely sure. Hunter stepped right up to the register, already fired up and ready to help.

Then he started talking to my daughter about a couple of other drink options, and wow--he had me reconsidering my whole order! My daughter reminded me that I don't like prickly pear, but Hunter kindly let me sample it anyway. Sure enough, I still didn't like it--but he made it sound so delicious and refreshing that I almost believed I would! We left already planning our next visit just to see Hunter again. If you get the chance to have an encounter with him, take it! He truly knows the products and how to market them. And most importantly--the drinks were excellent!!!

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.
