Affogato was perfect on a hot a day. Great little spot to rest up and recharge. The lady working the counter was professional and friendly. will make this a spot to visit everytime we are in town.

Small coffee shop in the heart of old town. Coffee is good, basic flavors without any fun creative coffee options. Service was very nice and fast. They were out of chicken salad which limited their food options quite a bit. They have pastries (muffins, bagel), but not much else. Overall it was good, but not anything I would seek out again since options were so limited all the way around.

I had a chance to stop by the old town in Scottsdale and I decided to walk around and I found this unique coffee shop. I order Chai Latte and it was absolutely amazing and perfectly well balanced. The shop has offered both indoor and outdoor with limited sitting areas, however, I would not mind to get my coffee from this place and walk around town which it has so many things to see in the community. Their service is super friendly and warm welcome. I will definitely stopping by again whenever I come to old town Scottsdale. Come and try it yourself!!

This place is such a hidden gem! I had some time to kill before an appointment and noticed the sign outside with Fall Martinis listed!! Yellow Spruce does coffee, gelato, wine and cocktails! The inside is small but they have a bar area for seating and a few tables and chairs. I think there are two parts to this shop and I only went to the side with the bar area which was super cute with really beautiful wood and coffee beans inside. Skyler was very helpful and made me my Sweater Weather martini. It was delicious and strong. Just what I needed. I can't wait to come back to try the coffee and/or gelato. Highly recommend checking this place out if you're in the area.

This review is for the Yellow Spruce cafe located inside of the Scottsdale Public Library. It's not the same physical location as the one in old town, however it's the same coffee, tea, and matcha they serve. It's great to be able to grab an iced coffee and then go sit in a nice chair in front of a large window looking at the park. I ordered an iced latte with oat milk and one pump of caramel + vanilla syrup. A simple coffee order that tastes great. My partner got the iced matcha. He wasn't expecting it to be sweetened but we didn't ask, I tasted it and I like it a bit sweet. Straight up matcha can be a bit too bitter for me. All in all, great cafe inside the library.

Amazing coffee roasters! The beans are top-notch, freshly roasted, and full of flavor. The staff is knowledgeable and passionate about coffee, and the shop has a cozy, inviting vibe. Every cup I tried was excellent--definitely a 5-star experience for any coffee lover!

Solid espresso at a decent price. Friendly barista. Seating available inside as well as on the sidewalk outside.

I had been wanting to try Yellow Spruce for a while and happened to be in the area. It's located in old town and parking can get crazy but it's easy to find. Customer service was welcoming and indoors is on the smaller side but there's a few spots inside and seating outside. They have teas, coffee, energy drinks, gelato and a few food items. I went with a caramel latte and it was perfect. No bitterness, not to sweet and good balance of flavor. The gelato looked great but wasn't hungry so I'll definitely plan to grab some next stop in!

A coffee shop that also is a wine/ drinks bar that stays open into the late evenings. Full bar with wine/ beer with hot/cold non alcoholic drink options too). Super nice service. Had both a latte and an espresso martini which were decent.

Kim S.

Delicious! I came in for the first time. Place is small with a bit of a patio. I ordered the cold brew with pumpkin cold foam. I'm normally not a pumpkin person, but this lady totally convinced me.

Salted caramel espresso martini
Lauryl B.

Very yummy salted caramel espresso martini. Super friendly staff!! The environment was also cute and in a great location in Old Town. Would recommend this drink.

Sophie K.

Such a cute coffee shop with good coffee! My mom is a huge coffee person, so I took her here, and she was so satisfied. She's like "finally I am drinking a real cup of coffee"! I don't really know about coffee but I could taste the difference compared to coffee from big franchise, it was nutty, flavorful, strong, and creamy! This place is going to be my go-to coffee spot in this area!

Taylor W.

Such a cute spot in Old Town! The inside gave small town coffee shop vibes for me. Coffee was smooth and the milk was not overly steamed. They have some pastries available as well as a limited breakfast menu. I appreciated that they also served gelato and had a wine bar next door.

Loved Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams! The store was bright and inviting, the staff was friendly, and…read morethere were so many flavors to choose from. I love that they let you sample as many as you'd like before deciding! Service was quick, but we never felt rushed while trying flavors and figuring out what we wanted. The waffle cones taste SO fresh because they literally are!! Someone was making them right there while we picked our ice cream. Such a nice touch! We shared a Double Dough and Darkest Chocolate together in a fresh waffle cone and it was so, so good. Did not get a picture because we ate it so fast! Easy parking, great service, delicious ice cream, and fresh waffle cones. Definitely 5 stars!

Great location in the most historic part of Old Town Scottsdale. I'm not a Jeni's regular and it…read morealways takes me a little while to recall they don't have a gazillion flavors but repeat a medium-sized selection 3 times across the display cases, which facilitates their sampling process. I sampled at least 4 flavors and they didn't seem too annoyed with me. My issue with Jeni's is primarily I think all of their ice cream across the board is too sweet (I know, it's dessert... I just really feel that dialing the sugar to 2/3 the amount would be perfect). All of the flavors I sampled would have been great. I ultimately ordered Buttercream Birthday Cake and Milkiest Chocolate, with the Buttercream Birthday Cake really pushing my boundary. Nonetheless enjoyable outing on a really hot July day. I'd go back to this location, bearing in mind it's not my favorite ice cream in the world. Also I must add, it's quite expensive. Buying for me individually, doesn't do too much damage, but for say a family of 4, this would be a pricey outing.

A Nostalgic, Must-Visit Dessert Destination in Old Town Scottsdale…read more Our party of six visited the Sugar Bowl for dessert following a friend's birthday dinner. Upon our arrival, we were accommodated immediately and seated without any delay. The parlor features a wonderful, nostalgic aesthetic reminiscent of the late 1900s. Its menu is remarkably expansive, offering an impressive variety of options that goes well beyond what one might typically expect from a traditional dessert establishment. The service we received was patient and polite. While one of our table's orders was initially overlooked, the staff corrected the mistake instantly as soon as we brought it to our server's attention. As the name implies, the menu leans heavily into decadent, sweet treats; those looking for lighter or tart options like yogurt variations will find limited choices, but the indulgent selections are perfect for traditional dessert lovers. The surrounding neighborhood adds significantly to the appeal, offering an excellent Old Town atmosphere filled with art galleries, historic shops, and artifacts. If you are visiting the nearby Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art (SMoCA), enjoying dinner in the area, or simply taking an evening walk, I highly recommend stopping by the Sugar Bowl for its unique historical charm and experience.

Down to the last 4 restaurants on my America 250 series, representing Arizona, I decided to go with…read morean iconic local business where I'm from in the Phoenix area. I considered several options in Phoenix area to review, but I decided to go with the iconic Sugar Bowl in Old Town Scottsdale. It's been in business since the 1950's and has been a staple for 7 decades in Old Town. The inside is 1890's decor of pink & white wallpaper/decor like an old fashioned ice cream parlor. They have a bar area and standard seating. I remember I first went here when I was in high school in late 90's/early 2000's. Ice cream was always top notch. I used to get the Buster Brownie, which was this big brownie sundae with vanilla ice cream, goeey marshmallow topping, whipped cream, & cherry on top. It was awesome! I loved that way back then. I got lunch there once or twice; pretty good sandwiches, but the real highlight is the ice cream. My most recent visit was in Jan. 2022 with my dad. We decided to pop in for ice cream. It was as delicious as I remembered.
