Crema's Take
“Press Coffee in Tempe is an espresso-focused spot that nails the fundamentals, with reviewers raving about rich, chocolatey lattes and smooth cold brew that keep them coming back day after day. The team behind the counter genuinely cares—they move with ease through the morning rush and bring a welcoming energy that makes this feel less like a caffeine pit stop and more like a morning ritual worth repeating. Whether you're in for a carefully pulled espresso drink or one of their inventive specialties like Black Peach tea, you're getting quality beans and thoughtful execution without the pretension.”

Very nice quality coffee shop. Latte was fantastic. Staff all pleasant. Highly recommend.
I visited Press Coffee and ordered the Black Peach tea, which was excellent (I did have honey added). I was there with several friends, and despite the coffee shop being nearly full, the staff did a great job getting everyone’s drinks out efficiently. One downside is parking—it’s very difficult to find nearby since the shop is located within an apartment-style complex. There is outdoor seating available, but be aware that conversations can be often drowned out by frequent airplanes flying overhead.
Press coffee is a must every time I travel to Tempe, Az. Originally I stoped for the lattes. My go-to is a 12 oz latte with oat milk. I always pick up yummy chocolatey notes with a hint of toasted caramel. Then one day I tried their breakfast burritos. I have to have one every time I visit now. IDK how they make them taste so good, it is perhaps the combination of the coffee and the burrito that pairs really well. Highly recommend this combo! :) Press also offers additional bites to eat, and if you show up early enough you might get lucky and get one of their mini cupcakes. I really like the mini carrot cake. Wish I could have taken more pics, but was too busy eating and enjoying my coffee.
I LOVE press! I visited Tempe for 6 weeks and we walked up here most mornings for coffee. I tried many different coffee shops in the Phoenix metro area and Press is definitely my favourite! Best beans and really friendly baristas! Can’t wait to come back and visit ❤️
Visited for the first time today - loved it! Their staff were super friendly and helpful. Their Cold Brew is really good. We also got their OG Breakfast Burrito and Breakfast Sandwich- both were delicious. They have a super cool vibe inside and outside. Will definitely be back. I highly recommend!
