What a beautiful hidden gem in Tempe! I had just finished a…read moredoctor's appointment and was craving coffee, so the name Seattle Espresso caught my attention and I decided to stop in around 9:00 AM. The place was packed, and it was so heartwarming to see so many regulars greeting each other--it instantly gave the shop such a welcoming, community feel. I noticed they've been around since 1993, which is honestly so special to see. The woman at the front even joked that we're not as old as the coffee shop The menu is simple, with some really good specials. I ordered the Russian Twist latte, and wow... it was so good. I could honestly drink it every single day. The coffee was rich, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. The prices are very reasonable, the ambiance is cozy, and it's the kind of place where you can work, relax, or just sit and enjoy the vibe. The little fountain outside adds such a lovely touch too. This is definitely going to be my go-to spot whenever I have an appointment in the area.

They do a phenomenal job, and we look forward to supporting them for many years to come.

I went and got my Playa bowls and then sat down and was gonna go inside and get something to drink, but someone came up to me and said we can't sit there because we have our bowls. I said OK we'll go inside and purchase something and then he said no you can't sit here at all outside food or drinks, which is crazy because it's outside in the public but regardless, I said OK well I can go inside and purchase something first then before I sit down he's like no so what do you think you can buy an espresso shot and just know so if you guys want to go to a place of business, that is actually respectful, don't go here because they're disrespectful rude and he also didn't tell me his name but whoever the old guy is with the eyepatch with shaggy hair. I totally understand that rules are rules. However, there's a total respectful way that people can talk to customers. There's a total appropriate way to address signage. I didn't notice any signage and I would've been more than happy to have either gotten permission to eat on the patio if I would've known those were rules or purchased anything I needed to. He lost business. He definitely lost future customers.

There are usually a couple gals behind the counter, watching the screen while you place your order ... waiting patiently as you peruse their many choices, trying to decide which tea to order. They are super friendly and very helpful. This visit we ordered the ginger chai, vanilla bean cream latte. I preferred the ginger chai, but my sister thought hers was betters. Our second visit we ordered the orange bianco, along with the cream earl grey milk teas. Both also wonderful. Today we ordered the raspberry chocolate milk tea and cocoa cream matcha. I may sound like a broken record, but yes, they were wonderful. It is NOT a boba tea shop; it was, but no longer. Incidentally, if you come the "back" way, entering off Warner vs Dobson, the signage on the back side still says Ni Hao. :-) Since we've already visited them three times, I think it's pretty clear we would highly recommend their teas.

TeaMakers & Company is a fantastic new addition to the locally owned small tea shops in the area…read more They're a Korean owned cafe and definitely exude that Korean cafe style in their operations, decor, and menu. Every detail is thoughtfully curated and you'll feel comforted and welcomed by the employees. They have fantastic tea quality! If you love tea, you will not be disappointed. The croffles are also great. Some other cafes bog down their croffles with toppings and sugar, but here they put just the right amount. They're not cloyingly sweet. I highly recommend getting the sugar on the regular croffle. It caramelizes and adds a pretty sheen and crunch without taking away from the croissant base. It is very clean and quiet inside during less busy hours. TeaMakers has a medium-small amount of seating featuring both hard table tops and a comfy couch sitting area. With their current setup, you can fit a group of up to 4 at their biggest tables. TeaMakers & Company excels in everything already despite being so newly opened. I truly do not have any constructive criticism to give at this time, and I've been there multiple times already.

Not only do they offer a crazy variety of delicious fresh pastries, drinks, sandwiches, breads, etc....they have beautifully decorated cakes that honestly are so good. I have to point out that they have one of the best tasting green tea, and they literally have the best service anyone can ask for. I don't know how she does it, but Ashley brews this green tea perfectly. While most other Paris Baguette locations have the same green tea, they honestly do not taste exactly the same (Phoenix location on Baseline/32nd St is a totally different tea). When Ashley, Kailey, Dania. Richard and Daniel work together, they emit such high, positive and fun energy. They clearly look like they have fun while dealing with so many customers (and some customers are plain mean). These PB employees are so pleasant, efficient and really are an asset to this organization. Love seeing Ashley, Kailey and Dania's smiling face as soon as you walk in, they will definitely greet you. They truly are so sweet. I watch how they connect with each customer, making everyone feel special. The manager Joy has done an excellent job in selecting this team... If you are nearby, give it a try. Ask for Ashley, Kailey or Dania, and I guarantee you will agree with me :-)

Also, they have $2 drink special with purchase during their 3pm to 6pm Happy Hour. All offers are through the app. It can take about 15 minutes to show up for new accounts, so I recommend downloading the app before you head to the bakery. There were so many great options to pick from. We really liked the hazelnut filled croissant and will plan to get that again! All the ones we have tried so far are good. We are looking forward to coming back and trying more pastries. In addition, there is plenty of seating here if you want to stay and eat!

I started going to this coffee shop on weekends because I like supporting locally owned small…read morebusinesses. The staff has always been friendly, helpful, and welcoming, and the coffee is smooth and enjoyable. My biggest concern is the pricing. Only the regular-size drink prices are displayed, so ordering a larger size can come as an unpleasant surprise. Paying over $8.50 for a 20 oz pour-over coffee feels excessive. Another issue is the limited restroom capacity. There is only one bathroom, and wait times can sometimes be quite long, especially during busy periods. The shop also struggles during the summer months. The air conditioning doesn't seem capable of keeping the space comfortable, and it can become uncomfortably hot inside. I appreciate supporting local businesses and enjoy the coffee and customer service, but the high prices, lack of transparent sizing costs, restroom limitations, and uncomfortable indoor temperatures make it difficult to justify visiting as often as I'd like.

There were a lot of groups of people talking, a bookclub, and a lot of people just drinking coffee and reading and it was still not overly loud. The shop also has band equipment and host different musicians throughout the week, I will definitely be coming back for that. The service was wonderful, friendly and quick. I ordered a large hot pistachio latte with oatmilk. The coffee was extremely well balanced and the pistachio flavor was noticeable and delicious. This was one of the best lattes that I have gotten in the valley and I highly recommend trying it.

The crowd was a mix of students, groups of friends, and a few serious laptop-working folks. It seems like they have live bands over the weekends, which sounds fun. The whole setup gave strong Friends series vibes comfy couches, tables, and that relaxed café energy. They offer a good variety of coffee and tea options. I tried their special vanilla matcha, and unfortunately, I didn't enjoy it at all. It was overly sweet, and the matcha flavor was barely noticeable. I've definitely had much better matchas elsewhere. Maybe this place is better known for their coffee. Overall, it's a nice hangout spot, but I don't see myself going back.

I've been here coming here for over the past 10 years or so and they are consistent. I'm not into the boba but I like the drinks like the usual milk tea, jasmine milk tea, winter melon, and mango to name a few. They did a recent update for their interiors with merchandise so it looks more upscale and clean. I love their surprise series where you get a drink where you get a blind cup for Sanrio character plushies for example. They have a couple claw machines. They also have a self order kiosk for you to optionally order your own drinks or snack food. Fun little place to hang out. A few small tables are outside as well. Will be back again!

There was another pair in the shop and the bobaista was welcoming and friendly. I decided to get the sea salt Vietnamese coffee with boba, regular size (16oz). I wanted to get a large but the gal said they only do the smaller size because of the caffeine content. Fair enough! The drink was delicious: loved the salty foam on the top and the coffee was tasty as always. The boba was chewy and cooked well. Price was comparable to other boba spots: $5.99 plus $0.75 for boba. Would come back when in the area to try other drinks, and maybe some food!
