My daughter and I walked up to the counter ready to order, and I knew I wanted a mocha--but I wasn't completely sure. Hunter stepped right up to the register, already fired up and ready to help. 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!!!

Completely understand, since the CC companies charge small businesses a fee. So, just make sure to bring some cash with you if you want to avoid the fee. Not a big deal.

My friend and I arrived early afternoon and there was no line. However, more people came after we ordered. I didn't realize there was no seating. It's basically just a counter inside a small room within a collective. It's meant for grab-and-go. I ordered the Vietnamese coffee with ube cold foam and since I was visiting a friend after, I decided to bring her a matcha. I got her a matcha with ube cold foam. The Vietnamese coffee was nice and strong and the ube cold foam was a great addition. I had a sip of my friend's ube matcha and thought it was good, too. I would probably visit often if I was closer!

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. Glad to see Infusion takes customer feedback seriously.

The pastries and sandwich were all fabulous! Great flavor and freshly baked. The lattes were a bit watered down and not a super strong bean. I would definitely go back for the pastries if I happen to be in the area on a weekday again.

They also sell flower bouquets that are well put together. We'll definitely be back!

You'll find Greek, Asian, Hawaiian, BBQ, and then spas for days, right next to a paint and sip studio and frozen yogurt shop with ice cream tacos! It's no surprise they opened a magical flowers and coffee shop where the hippest most romantic looking couples and poets seem to drop by to do their work for the day. However, I might say that I was sorely disappointed that they are not a dog-friendly establishment and they don't offer any pet treats or doggy bowls or puppichinos. :( Although their bouquets are BEAUTIFUL and absolutely STUNNING - you'll find that their DoorDash options come with a flower, but if you order in person, they do not.* I only found this out when ordering in person and asking about it. BUT you can buy a small bouquet in person for something like $12. The carrier is not included. Something to get when you are absolutely having a spoil yourself date. Also very convenient when they have their to-go window open as their full menu is also available outside as well. My first time there, they had not remodeled yet and the coffee shop was a tiny hidden spot in the back with their pastries crammed in tiny displays (which made them even more elusive) and their specials were much more rare, written on little chalkboards. I had their pumpkin chai with almond milk and it was absolutely stronger than the Hulk himself. I couldn't be happier. The next time, I had a London Fog (earl grey with almond milk) and honey which had its own unique charm to it and ordered some of their small bites which were also very delicious and creamy, just enough for satisfy that morning burn in your tummy. I also really loved this with that gentle froth. The last time I went (and they had remodeled and relocated to their new pink brick) I went ahead and tried their turquoise rose matcha which was also everything it's made out to be, but next time I will definitely order it COLD so I can see the color changing happening! You won't be disappointed!

The drink was a perfect balance of flavors and you can taste the coffee, the coffee tasted rich, bodied, and high quality. The balance of ice and drink was great, the drink did not have too much ice and it was cold enough.

Located in a strip mall, the space has a cozy, eclectic feel with a darker interior and a variety of seating options ranging from traditional tables to upholstered chairs, couches, and wooden booths. Steve's Espresso is often described as a longtime neighborhood coffeehouse with a comfortable, lounge-like atmosphere, which definitely came through during my visit. The staff was friendly and welcoming, and overall I had a good experience. I ordered a cold brew, which was well made but leaned more full-bodied and strong than smooth and mellow, which is generally my preference. I was also surprised that there weren't any cold foam options available, as that feels like an easy addition that could expand the menu. One thing worth noting is that it got pretty noisy around 9 a.m. The space has a lot of hard surfaces, and some sound-absorbing artwork or acoustic panels could go a long way toward improving the atmosphere during busy periods. Overall, a solid local coffee shop with plenty of comfortable seating and friendly service. While it didn't quite wow me, I'd happily stop by again and try some of their other offerings.
