    iced vanilla latte (left), Vanilla Bean Cold Brew (right)
    Tarini S.

    Had a great time here, service was wonderful and the lady taking our order explained all the drinks they can make and their specials since it was our first time. Coffee was great and made exactly as you'd hope for. It's a small shop with good seating and very well set up. Will definitely come back - from the service to the coffee, everything was wonderful!

    Great spot in Tempe. Came in for a quick coffee after mass and a snack. The girls at the front were nice and got our coffee quick. The spot is cute and small and has a cool board and here you can buy a friend coffee. The waffle taco was good, a little sweet but to be expected with Nutella and banana topped with powder sugar.

    Really nice coffee spotting Tempe! I had a latte with oatmilk. The coffee was amazing. Not bitter at all. They have a lot of different flavors you can add to your coffee or latte. There were some sugar free options as well. My boyfriend had the chai latte. It was good, but it was so so sweet. Would definitely get half sweet next time if possible. The Nutella and Banana waffle was also really good. I thought the prices were reasonable as well. The Marvel art inside is really cool and I enjoyed looking it over while I drank my coffee. There are about 5 tables inside and some outdoor seating as well. The service was excellent and our barista was friendly. Would definitely come back!

    The coffee was so good! The barista helped me pick it out, she was so nice! The art was cool to look at while I waited too! Amazing place.

    OG Granola: oat milk latte with honey and cinnamon
    Gretel Y.

    Heard great things about Happy Joe Coffee, so decided to check it out one weekday afternoon. There's limited paid street parking as well as a garage nearby, I think. The shop is cute and cozy. Loved the Marvel art on the wall! There aren't many tables, so if you're looking to work or study, it's best to arrive early to grab a spot. The staff was very friendly and helpful. I was tempted to try a new-to-me drink, but decided to go with my usual, an oat milk latte with honey and cinnamon. To my surprise, they had it on the menu! They call it the "OG Granola." I also ordered a breakfast bagel sandwich, which had egg and cheese. The latte was delicious and well balanced. The sandwich came toasted and was tasty. The prices were very reasonable. I would visited again if I'm back in the area.

    A great coffee shop! We stopped in quickly for two cold brews. The barista was very kind and helpful. They have a large selection of special coffees as well. Quick service snd good coffee!

    I always enjoy checking out local coffee shops when traveling. While up in Tempe I stopped by this small locally owned coffee shop. The wall mural was rad and the coffee came out quickly despite it being a busy Saturday morning. They allow you to customize the sweetness which I always like. I got the cookie butter latte with almond milk and it was great!

    Cute little spot right downtown! Easy parking close by. Lots of fun and seasonal options. We went with classic lattes and the coffee was very good. The baristas were kind and welcoming. We will definitely stop back

    Vanilla Bean Cold Brew
    Nicole B.

    This place is a solid stop. I got a Vanilla Bean Cold Brew and their Turkey and White Cheddar sandwich on an everything bagel. The coffee was very tasty. I'm impressed. The sandwich was good as well. Next time though I'll ask if they can toast the bagel. It comes with a chipotle mayo that's pretty decent too. The baristas were friendly and quick. It's a small location with limited outdoor and indoor seating and parking that can be tricky. Definitely more of a grab and go situation. Fairly pricey, but good nonetheless.

    Strawberry waffles

    Absolutely not. I usually come and get their strawberry waffles, which usually comes with three waffles, a couple strawberries, and some whip, whipped cream powder, powdered sugar in a side of syrup.. however today no whipped cream and there seems to be lots of black stuff on the waffles. They taste burnt, although they might not look like it. They have a really weird smell to them as well. I was gonna say maybe it's because I came later in the day so they're not fresh off the press or whatever but they don't close until 5 PM so that can't be it. I don't know what's happening it's a waste of my money and I won't be going back. Also these waffles don't come with chocolate chips. They're just regular waffles so I have no idea what that black stuff is really

    We were staying down the street at the Residence Inn and decided to give this place a try and had we did! First of all, the customer service was excellent! Answered lots of questions for us and even offered to make a sample of one of the specials we were curious about. Beyond that, the coffee was excellent! I find they sometimes mom and pop shops have bitter espresso but Happy Joe's was excellent! And of course the mural is pretty impressive!

    Alexandria R.

    Ok I loved this place! The coffee was delicious, the waffles felt unique and the vibe felt very easy going! The food options will meet any craving you have especially on the go! Ability to add cbd to my coffee is the ultimate combo! The seasonal specials were absolutely fantastic and thoughtfully crafted flavor combos. The worker was helpful and informative and kind to our little one.

    Vanilla dirty chai
    Destiney L.

    I ordered a Vanilla dirty chai with vanilla cold foam, and a Nutella waffle! Both were so tasty. The two baristas were soooooo sweet. One of them informed us that this shop is pet friendly so we brought in our pitbull and they loved him. They offered him a pup cup and water right away. One of them was even giving us tips on where to get ointment for his hotspots (we're not from here). Love the ambiance, the drinks, and the service. I've tried MANY different coffee shops for the two weeks I've been here and this is def my top two.

I asked him, "Do you think I want a mocha?" and without hesitation he said yes! We both laughed, and then he suggested adding vanilla, which had me completely sold. Then he started talking to my daughter about a couple of other drink options, and wow--he had me reconsidering my whole order! My daughter reminded me that I don't like prickly pear, but Hunter kindly let me sample it anyway. Sure enough, I still didn't like it--but he made it sound so delicious and refreshing that I almost believed I would! We left already planning our next visit just to see Hunter again. If you get the chance to have an encounter with him, take it! He truly knows the products and how to market them. And most importantly--the drinks were excellent!!!

I had their regular cold brew with a splash of cream and a Sunrise Sandwich- both were so good! The cold brew had a lovely aftertaste that in my opinion, reminded me of dark chocolate and whiskey. Service was also fantastic- the lovely barista was thorough in her explanations of each cold coffee option to help me find what I was looking for! My sandwich was also lovely- the Sunrise Sandwich on an Everything Bagel is easily my favorite breakfast sandwich in Tempe. The Basil Pesto adds a bit of freshness to an otherwise very rich sandwich. Also stopped in a few more times on my evening walks for a Lavender Haze (seasonal earl grey sage honey drink: EXCELLENT!) and their seasonal energy drink- it was a Sunset Spritz (energy with grapefruit pink cordial): both delicious. Happy to say service has improved greatly. Employees are on task and happy to answer my questions. The drinks on the seasonal menu are very good, and their classics are also great. If you're going to go soon, I'm a big fan of the Sage honey and a big fan of the cordial syrup on the 2026 Spring Menu. Will definitely be hitting Infusion up for some future study sessions.

The ube cold foam was actually the perfect flavor, it had the earthiness and vanilla richness that I was looking for to accent the matcha. The matcha itself on the other hand, was a little too milky for my tastes, and kind of got lost in the ube flavor. I would have loved for it to be a little stronger! There was virtually no wait when I came in, but it's definitely a small space with only 2 seats and a small table, so this is a grab-and-go kind of spot. Don't expect a work space! Overall, a good spot with lots of tasty sounding options, and I think I'll be back to try the coffee.
