Crema's Take
“Before & After Java Cafe trades on Sedona's red rock views rather than the coffee itself—it's a Starbucks licensee, so you're paying specialty-cafe prices for chain espresso that regulars describe as "just okay." The outdoor deck is genuinely beautiful and worth lingering on if you snag one of the two shaded spots, but service is inconsistent, parking is a hassle, and the 3.6 rating reflects a lot of disappointed visitors expecting more than a scenic break with decent pastries.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings.

It’s Starbucks. Why they use different name here? Deck view is awesome but just 2 umbrellas. So other spots useless. There’s another deck with umbrellas but it’s closed for employee use.
We ordered a flat white and a London Fog latte, both of which were delicious. Great service. The view was stunning, and we ended up staying for nearly an hour.
A great cafe with outdoor seating with a stunning view of the Sedona Valley. Handicapped accessible but parking is difficult. Free parking lot is blocks from this cafe. Good service, although they don’t have decaffeinated iced tea. View from their patio is worth the hassle.
They serve Starbucks coffee so the coffee is okay. Starbucks isn’t my favorite. Tried the cinnamon dulce and it was good. Lemon cranberry muffin Beautiful sitting area outside with beautiful views. Right next to the pink jeep tours so we stopped for a drink before our tour and…
