Experiment Coffee and Pastry Scottsdale
7109 E 2nd St Suite 100, Scottsdale, AZ
Crema's Take
“Tucked in Old Town Scottsdale within walking distance of the Museum of the West, this espresso-focused café shines brightest for its genuinely exceptional in-house pastries and attentive staff who take time to dial in your coffee order exactly how you like it, even at dawn. While the coffee itself is solid—with creative seasonal flavors like bourbon and honey notes—the real magic here is the pastry case, where fresh-baked goods clearly receive the lion's share of the kitchen's passion and care. It's an ideal spot for lingering over a leisurely coffee and pastry or meeting a friend, though espresso purists seeking cutting-edge craft might find the coffee plays second fiddle to the baked goods.”

Nice bakery with a large selection of in-house baked goods. A variety of specialty coffees are available. My espresso was average and, unfortunately, served in a paper cup. Staff were friendly.
staff asked me every way to make my coffee which I appreciated even though it was at 6am, she was very attentive, coffee is great, pastries are fresh in house and amazing. wish there was a drive through but it's still welcoming. thx -a
Good coffee amazing pastries! The chai was not too sweet. The coffee was good, it had bourbon and honey flavour in it which gave coffee a little sweetness. The pastry was a hard choice to make cause so many delicious looking pastries! There is some seating inside and two of table outside.
The pastries are out of this world. The coffee is average. They put a lot into the pastries... Surprisingly, they don't do the same for craft coffee syrups. I wish this place would take as much pride in the beverage menu as they do the pastries. Coffee isn't bad, but the skilled and elevation clearly is different for pastries than it is coffee.
This small exquisite coffee shop is within walking distance of the Museum of the West in Old Town Scottsdale. This at least their 2nd location and I’m glad they’re expanding! I got the Maple nut Latte and Kouign Aman; a delightful caramelized butter and sugar type popover. I also secured a few of their “Best Cookies” and Maple Leaf cookies to bring back to Rhode Island. Check out the photos, better yet GO! You’ll be glad you did!
