    We came here to get some coffee for my boyfriend while passing through to our destination. We love supporting local coffee shops vs corporate! The coffee stop is cute with nice outdoor seating areas. They have a wide variety of options and a few pastries as well. The owners are also friendly and nice which makes the experience that much better.

    Roasted: this is a super cute coffee food truck in Vail AZ. It's with a few other food trucks and the local thrift store. It's a small trailer with a small menu but good offerings. They use At Peak coffee for their espresso. They have a good options and plenty of sugar free options too. Plenty of outdoor seating. I love the vibe of this place. Barista was friendly and helpful. Mocha was delicious! It was spot on. I'd come back here for sure! Unroasted: small coffee trailer next to the train tracks is a person to enjoy a lovely morning. They have lots of coffee flavors including sugar free flavors. The barista was nice and attentive to our needs. Ordered the usual and it was really good. I would come back on the flavor alone. Great job all around. I would like mug instead of a paper cup but that might not be an option.

    Adorable little coffee truck with shaded outdoor seating available. Very dog friendly. I ordered a vanilla iced latte and it came out fast and was so delicious! The coffee truck owners were super friendly also.

    Wanted to try this little local coffee spot for some time now. We opted to go first thing in the early morning for our coffee fix! I ordered the Cafe Americano & it was good; just above average. I like my americanos a bit stronger. I will try something else next time. Hubby ordered their vanilla latte & said it was "above average." The service was very welcoming, helpful, & friendly! This coffee cart is hard to miss while driving down Colossal Cave Road! You're sure to spot their adorable YELLOW mini camper! There's plenty of covered outdoor seating. Sun has not even rose when we went, so it was still pretty dark & cold! The ambiance could use some soft melodic music & heaters, for a cozy feel! They also had homemade pastries that they confirmed are fresh by a day or two, max! I tried their gluten free Oatmeal, peanut butter, & chocolate chip bar & it was the perfect addition to my coffee! I will definitely return.

    Great stop in vail! We grabbed drinks before my husband went golfing. The pasties were incredible and I'm drilling thinking about the caramel apple muffin. I loved that they had an apple pie chai for their seasonal menu. It was very good and awesome to enjoy a fall tea beverage since most places usually do not have them. There was ample seating, beautiful lights and the service was fast since there was no line.

    Love the whole experience at Vail Coffee Stop. The coffee is delicious but it's the small town local feel and community that really makes this place a Vail gem. I also love how community oriented the owners are, constantly giving back. I'm proud to be a patron knowing so much ends up back in our local schools and neighborhoods.

    Visiting family in Rita Ranch and wanted to have some coffee. Vail was just up the road and worth a drive. Tried the chai with espresso and oat milk. Tasty drink and the outdoor seating in the shade was super cute. They have a lot of coffees on the menu. If I lived there, I'd be a regular.

    Don't miss this great local spot found just "between the tracks" in Vail. Stopped by today in the way to work and found the great coffee and smiling faces at the Vail Coffee Stop. It was a great way to start my morning and I look forward to coming back again. If you are in town or on your way to Colossal Cave, give it a shot!

    I had been driving since 5:00 in the morning from El Paso, and was hungry and needed something to…read moreeat as I was starving. And found myself heading 2 mi inland to find this particular Starbucks. What a nice little hidden gym. This place was actually very nicely laid out, plenty of parking outside, and inside. Plenty of seating and table options. People behind the counter were nice and friendly, not as chatty as some but it didn't matter, I'll take friendliness over talkativeness any day of the week. They took my order, scanned my phone and within minutes my order was right there. By the way, use the restroom before picking up my order. It was nice and clean, and made for a very nice experience. My go-to as always is the turkey, bacon, egg, white sandwich, a venti vanilla sugar-free latte, and this time around I tried the matcha strawberry loaf. I really enjoyed the matcha strawberry loaf. Loaf it was perfectly sweet and was very very tasty. Bottom line? If I am ever traveling out this way I will definitely stop by the Starbucks again. It's a hidden gem about 2 mi in from the 10 freeway.

    So, as much as I would love to think of this location as 5 star they have evolved into a 2.5 level…read more We generally go to the Safeway Starbucks across the parking lot for a clean environment, with drinks made to perfection and stellar service. The issue I have with this location is that it consistently appears dirty, even when slow and there are plenty of workers. My last 4 visits here have yielded very SLoW service despite one visit having 8-9 people working. It seems very disorganized here and workers not grasping priorities in staying on top of everything even during cyclical rushes. Not sure what the deal is here but I hope they work it out and love that I have a fallback Starbucks within feet of this one.

You could tell right from the start the guys in the truck were passionate about what they did. They showed a high level of excitement explaining their different empanadas and how to reheat them when you got home. On our first attempt, we ordered the ground beef , apple, chicken, pizza, and fatay. They neatly arranged it in a medium size pizza box that had the qualities and included the reheating instructions. Each empanada had initials stamped so you could identify the types without having to bite in to it. Every detail was well thought out with the customer in mind and I thought that was a great touch. Fast forward to reheating and biting in to the empanadas, I found them to be very flavorful. You could tell the flavors were layered nicely. These were so good I went back the next day and walked away with their large pizza box. I pretty much tried everything that wasn't special order. My preference, but I like that it's baked and not fried. The internal ingredients are more pronounced and not masked with fryer fat. The size was perfect in that you can try more than one and not be stuffed. It's quality over quantity and in a place like this it matters. Good stuff. I'll be back. Just under $4 each any flavor.

There's always people pulled over ordering when I drive by and I'm so glad I stopped. Now when I say these are packed with flavor, I mean it! I've had empanadas in the past with only a little filling. Not these bad boys. They are stuffed full! We ordered the beef, the chicken, the humita, and the apple pie. All were AMAZING! The chicken was my favorite- so much flavor! And all of them were stuffed full. I definitely recommend stopping if you're around the Vail area.

We will absolutely go back. Excellent across the board.

Their food is so good that I decided to have them cater my daughter's graduation party recently. They showed up with a giant truck that was parked outside my house. My guests were able to go up to the window and order what they wanted from a predetermined menu. They were greeted by the same amazingly friendly employees. The tacos and Sonora dogs were of the same fantastic quality as they were on my previous trips. They set up a salsa bar outside the truck so we could dress our tacos. It was so much easier than cooking or ordering food and running back and forth to get it. And my guests were well fed and happy! And let's face it, it looked pretty cool having the truck outside the house. Whether it's grabbing a quick bite for breakfast, lunch or dinner or hiring them to cater an event, you cannot go wrong with Giro Taco Truck.
