But I asked for the honey pistachio matcha as a latte and they accommodated that which was awesome. That drink was pretty tasty because of the cream cheese soft top and real pistachios.

The barista was patient as I took forever deciding between all the fun drink options! The decoration was super cute: very light/airy and wood accents, just like you'd imagine in a casita!

Struggled a bit with this place especially after reading so many glorious reviews. It's clear to…read moreme that it really depends on what you're looking for and I'm looking for great espresso drinks. I'm just not finding it. I'm a big Cortado guy and they have one prominently on the menu. We've been here a few times and each time my wife's flavored latte is quite lovely, but would it be if it wasn't iced? The service is pleasant, the cafe itself is clean and cute, they have a restroom for patrons. But when it comes to pouring a Cortado, they don't know how to do it. It's just some steamed milk dumped on espresso in a paper cup. Any time a barista puts a cap on your cup (paper cups are generally a bad sign, but some are very good, but still not as good as glass cup poured versions) it's clear they intend to hide the lack of microfoam head, the art itself is how you build this drink. The pastries are great. I've wanted to like this place really because of the story, but if you're really into espresso there are so many better options than Cosita.

Everything about it just feels right -- the vibe, the people, and especially the food. You can tell they actually care. The staff is super welcoming and generous, not in a forced way, just genuinely good energy from the second you walk in. Food-wise, they don't miss. The honeycomb with cream cheese inside is insane -- sweet, rich, and something you don't really see anywhere else. The Dubai chocolate latte is a must-try too, super smooth and indulgent without being over the top. The beef samosas are perfectly crispy and packed with flavor, and the chocolate pistachio croissant is easily one of the best pastries I've had in a while. Honestly, every time I go I end up trying something new and it's always solid. You can tell they put real thought into everything they serve. Definitely one of those spots you keep coming back to.

Stopped by Villa Meola Coffee for a quick breakfast while running errands in downtown Gilbert. The…read morewonderful husband and wife owners, Michael and Callen, greeted me and took my order. They took the time to go over the items with me and answer some of my questions. Villa Meola Coffee shares a space with another biz and the other biz was doing some construction at the time of my visit. Regardless, the space is welcoming and family friendly. They even have a play area for kids. Callen mentioned that "The Hot Italian" is one of her favorite drinks. It comes with espresso, hazelnut cocoa syrup, calabrian chili, and cocoa. I love spicy drinks, so it was easy to convince me especially since they make their own syrups. I opted for iced with almond milk. I also ordered a vegetarian breakfast pizza. The drink was good and the flavor was subtle. The vegetarian breakfast pizza came with eggs and cheese on sourdough bread. It was tasty and filling. Before heading out, I spotted a little shelf with locally made crafts and products for sale, which added even more charm to the café. I will be back!

I decided to stop by this little coffee shop while running errands and wanted to step outside of my…read morecomfort zone by trying one of their summer drink specials. I ordered the Arancello Latte, which features orange, vanilla, and orange zest. It was definitely unique, and I'm glad I gave it a try. While it wasn't bad at all, it's probably not something I would order again. I tend to prefer strong, bold coffee flavors, and the citrus notes in this drink softened the coffee taste more than I typically enjoy. That said, if you're a fan of lighter, sweeter specialty lattes with a refreshing twist, the Arancello may be right up your alley.

The owners are genuinely some of the sweetest and cutest couple ever. The drinks are yum every time, especially their specialty lattes which are what I usually stick with. They manage to keep things balanced and not overly sweet, which I appreciate. It can get busy, especially during peak hours, so coming early helps if you don't want to wait around. But even when it's crowded, the vibe stays pretty calm and welcoming. Also, their Instagram is worth checking out because it's funny, and creative. Check them out if you haven't already!

There is a lot of indoor seating and a few tables outside. The baristas are super nice and great with recommendations. I was gutsy and as a non-matcha lover, I ordered the Strawberry Shortcake Matcha. I loved it! It was refreshing and the strawberry helped balance out the matcha taste, it was noticeable but not overwhelming. I would love to try some of their other fun drinks. Overall great coffee shop if you are in Downtown Gilbert!

This review is long overdue. I'm writing today from one of the comfortable rocking chairs on the…read morefront patio at Maple House. My husband and I enjoy kicking off our Sunday close to the opening hour at 7am. We eat a delicious breakfast option inside first. My husband orders a breakfast sandwich while I don't just like but LOVE the avacado toast. If available, we take our coffee and sit outside on the patio. The coffee is full bodied and delicious. My husband is a hot mocha guy. They have ice water at the front and in their spacious backyard seating area. It is a dog friendly destination. We enjoy seeing the wide variety of furry regulars. There are free treats for them. The service is consistently friendly and on top of their game. They really know how to move a line but you never feel rushed. They offer a points/ reward program for purchases which is always nice. When I asked my husband about cost he said it is so good he didn't even look! I checked our transaction history. For both of us including tip it was around $44- very decent in this day and age for such high quality. What a gem in Downtown Chandler!

My friend and I both ordered mediums with 75% sweetness, and it was the perfect drink for a hot, humid summer morning. Sweet enough to feel like a treat without being over the top. We also ordered matching bagel sandwiches. I do wish they offered a turkey bacon option, but the sandwiches were still hot, fresh, and delicious. The real star was the mayo aioli. I could probably put that on just about anything. The vibes are wonderful too. It's cozy, welcoming, and the kind of coffee shop where you want to linger with a friend for a while. My only critique is the layout of the front room. There always seems to be a line, but there's not really a good place for it to go besides in front of the entrance and the water station. It turns into a lot of "excuse me" and people weaving around each other. It's definitely a good problem to have because they're clearly popular, but I hope as they continue to flourish, they're able to expand into a larger space or rethink the flow a bit. Either way, I'll absolutely be back. Just save me another coconut brown sugar latte.
