I stopped by here this morning because I heard they had a variety of GF pastries and I wanted a nice relaxing place to study. This place did not disappoint. First of all, they had a ton of GF options and they are not mixed in the same case as the gluten pastries, they are in their own case. The place itself is super cute and they roast their beans right there. For round1 I had a GF baked apple fritter and a lavender latte with almond milk. I studied for a bit and after a while decided it was time for round 2. The case was pretty picked over at that point, they seem to be a pretty popular place. I ended up getting the maple donut and a pumpkin spice latte with almond milk. Again, both were excellent. I highly recommend this place, especially if you are in Sedona and need to eat GF. Just make sure you go early so you get the full selection.

Came here for breakfast and coffee. They had a nice array of pastries to pick from. Everything was able to get warmed up. She also did warn me that warming up my pastry was going to be about 8 minutes to let me decide if I still wanted it or change my order. A good amount of seating. In the space. Everyone was friendly. Right at a circle so we were able to get back to our place quickly.

This place is the perfect spot for an hot, fresh roasted drink. The shot of Cortado was exactly the right size, flavor and price. Cute space in Oak Creek Village area 10 minutes from bell rock. Nice staff, clean space, great vibe. Glad we stopped in. Cute outdoor market nearby drew our attention in next door.

Food/drink: 4 Service: 4 Ambiance: 4 Solid 4 stars for this quaint coffee shop in the heart of oak creek. It was a busy Friday when we arrived (the day after Thanksgiving!) however the line moved steadily and the lady at the front was kind and sweet. We ordered the cappuccino (good but next time I'll order 1 more shot of espresso because I like it strong), my partner ordered coffee (which he also liked). The stars of the show were the pastries! The ambiance here is warm, bright and homey and really like the perfect place to enjoy a warm cup of goodness. We will definitely return.

SO many amazing gluten free treat options (muffins, donuts, bundt cake, etc.) and the coffee was delicious as well!

This is my regular stop when I am traveling to Sedona. It is located right off AZ-179 in the Village of Oak Creek. Oak Creek Espresso roasts their beans on-site and are open morning hours till noon. They have a number of housemade pastries that include gluten-free and vegan options. The Coffee Cake Crumb Muffin and Blueberry Lemon Scone are a couple of my favorites. They have ice cream here too and can make floats and affogato. There can be a bit of a line at times during the weekends, but I have found that it moves pretty quick. My favorite thing after a two hour drive from the Valley is to stop and grab a Honey Lavender Latte and a pastry and sit on the outside patio. The beautiful views of the nearby Sedona red rocks is just breathtaking.

Loved the red rock cacao. It's a spicy chocolate drink. I requested an espresso shot to make it a mocha, plus with soy milk. They sell the red rock cacao mix if you really love it. I also ordered the coffee cake muffin. I wish there was more cinnamon and crumble on top rather than the icing, personally. It was an actual good cake though. The cashier was friendly. The spot shares space with the roastery next door, whom so happens to roast their coffee beans.

cardamom rose latte, seasonal matcha latte
Sarah C.

seasonal oat matcha latte w maple & cinnamon was pretty good for a local-based matcha powder but I liked the cardamom rose oat latte even more :"") staff were super nice and made us a fresh cup when we told them we got the wrong thing. the pastries were just normal; the shredded artichoke in the vegetarian pastry was a nice touch

Vanilla iced latte, iced latte, and Double Espresso
Gerlene Joy S.

We came around 10am and there were not that much pastries left. There was no line and the service was okay. Iced Latte / Vanilla Iced Latte - they both tasted the same there was no distinct flavor in the vanilla it was very watered down. 2/5 Double espresso shot - this one was pretty good. The espresso was very warm, bold, and smooth. I had to pour it into my latte to add more flavor. 4/5 Banana / chocolate bread pudding - their pastries were alright. It was somewhat dry but the flavor was there. 2/5

The staff works incredibly hard and fast. Our drinks and pastries were served pretty quickly considering the amount of customers. The cafe has some fun rooms with unique artwork and plenty of seating. The gluten free cinnamon roll was a delicious balance of sweet and dense cake. The zucchini muffin was so good it made you moan. I also tried and iced latte which was delicious!

Absolutely loved our morning pit stop here! Highly recommend for coffee and a quick breakfast with gluten free and vegan options. COFFEE: All the options, artfully made by great baristas. I got an iced chai and it was perfect - not too sweet! Others in my group enjoyed their lattes. PASTRIES: Plenty of delicious-looking options here, including multiple gluten-free and vegan options - I was so impressed! The gluten-free sample at the front was heavenly, and my banana walnut muffin was fluffy and filling. There are a handful of tables here, and service is pretty speedy for how busy they get on weekend mornings. Check this spot out!

Relax and Enjoy Your morning coffee!

Aside from the tea, they also sold all kinds of goodies--from traditional dresses to books to little trinkets--which I later found out that 70% of the products they sold here were handmade by their rural women & men. There was just so much to explore that my eyes and my heart were full and I haven't even had their teas yet. Another couple of things I found out later on while I indulged myself in more chai than I probably should have and scrolled through their website: (1) half of their profit goes to support women and children in Pakistan, and (2) this place is a "social-enterprise dedicated to peace-building and socio-economic empowerment of women and children in Pakistan." With that, truly, my heart and my belly could not be fuller and I'm so glad I made a point to visit this place at Tlaquepaque! There were some tables and chairs, as well as area rugs where groups sat crisscross applesauce, outside the store on the terrace since they're located on the second floor. They also had a few of these super charming balconies you can hang out and sip your drink at. If you're not in a rush, I think staying and having your tea there completes the whole experience. What we tried: Butter Chai - 5/5 Traditional Cardamom -4/5 Iced Black - 4/5 From the three drinks we got, my ultimate favorite was the Butter Chai. Apparently, they don't consider this as their best seller, but I have seen so many people rave about this particular drink and I couldn't be happier that I went for it. It was the perfect symphony of sweet and creamy with the spices not being too overwhelming. I didn't know that it came with some toppings of crushed pistachios too, but they make sure to ask if you're okay with that when you order. Overall, this one's quite a special place. If you get a chance to stroll around the Tlaquepaque Arts & Crafts Village, I highly recommend you stop by here!

That size allows you to choose two flavors, so we had their Belgian Chocolate and Espresso Swirl. SO. INCREDIBLY. GOOD! Their ice cream is almost like a gelato because it was so lush and creamy and so flavorful without being overly sweet. It's not the kind of ice cream that has those little ice chip bits you get in every bite. Nope. This was just pure creamy bliss all throughout. Everything they had was homemade too--from cookies to brownies to pies, and of course their ice cream! They had coffee as well, so they truly have a lot to choose from when you stop by. The staff were super nice and friendly, and made our visit such a happy one. We also heard they usually have a long line that goes out the door, so we were pretty lucky when we found ourselves only with a few other people ahead of us when we visited. Although after we got our order, the stream of people that arrived seemed endless. If you find yourself in Uptown Sedona, please stop by and get some of their ice cream. I know I will when we go to Sedona again!

Service was amazing too - attentive, friendly & joyous. Menu is innovative and while we didn't vibe with the taste of every item we tried, we enjoyed how healthy and gut friendly the food was.

It was however seasoned incredibly well, sweet potatoes included. If you want a more quiet patio experience, then I would opt for the dog-friendly patio in the front as opposed to the one through the restaurant toward the back. There wasn't anyone there when I came at open.

Little hole in the wall place, ok seating in and out, but I came for ice cream and not other food,…read moreso rating on that. Service: good. Only one employee, friendly but efficient young lady with a good attitude. Food: some of the best house made ice cream I've had with a variety of flavors - and they don't skimp! Super creamy but not overly sweet. Great texture. I had raspberry chipotle ( I think it was raspberry) with thin chocolate flakes. Excellent chocolate. Ice cream vanilla with the berry syrup mixed in. About 2-3 seconds after a mouthful of flavor comes the kick, not too bad. Very good. My son had cookies and cream - loaded with cookies. Wife Carmel. We are here for a week and will likely go back. Delicious! Didn't get pics because everyone devouring their cones!

I ended up choosing the rocky road. It was good overall, with a generous amount of marshmallows and chopped almonds, but the texture was a bit too soft for my liking. The small bits of chopped almonds just added to my dissatisfaction of the texture. While the taste was enjoyable, it wasn't something I'd go out of my way to get again especially since I was treated rudely. Unfortunately, what really turned me off was the service. While I was waiting for my waffle cone, my son was trying a few flavors and really liked one with Butterfinger bits. He asked me to get a sample so I can try how good it is. The young woman helping us (with blondish-red hair) clearly noticed we had already ordered and responded with a rude, dismissive look. She handed me the sample and said, "I need to take care of these other customers," in a tone that made us feel like we were an inconvenience. It was uncomfortable and unnecessary. Sampling is a normal part of the experience at ice cream shops, and the interaction felt unwelcoming. Because of that experience, I didn't recommend this place to others in my group, and I wouldn't return. I would have been happier with a soft serve cone at the Sedona McDonald's!

What a rude service!! Never coming back here again…read more The lady working came after me outside after I told her I was done talking to her. She has customers waiting and came outside . Wow Here is what happened Last year we had a great experience coming to this ice cream shop. And the reason why we came back is because they had this delicious vegan option. So we made this trip special to come to the shop. So the only two vegan options they had today was two different types of sorbets. And then I asked that last time I was here I was given a chocolate option. She said no these are the only two options and then the owner was there. She said I've never made anything else here. So then I thought about it and I looked through my pictures and I saw that in my cup I had a dark chocolate in my cup. So I went back inside and I said oh my gosh I'm so sorry I made a mistake. You're right I didn't have a vegan ice cream that was not a sorbet. It was like a chocolate cake because I remember someone offered me that the only vegan thing that they have here is a chocolate cake and then this lady that's working here totally cut me off and said "no!! The owner has only made these two vegan options! There is no other option!" She didn't let me talk and she was so rude ! So I left as this lady was not going to have a normal conversation with me so I told her why do you have to rude and went outside . She then ran outside and yelled at mez That is SO UNPROFESSIONAL and rude.

Good quality of ice cream. Went here when there was nobody. We got served the ice cream right away…read more This is absolutely one of the best sorbet I have tried in Sedona. The lady (whom I suspect the owner) based on other reviews was rude. Based on my comment, it is her personality, besides it is Sedona, where people just comfortable being themselves and not fake. She was treating us good though during our visit.

They don't only have some of the most delicious, moist gluten-free 'bagels,' (which are more like whole wheat buns and are delicious, so good toasted or fresh) but they also fresh bake a ridiculously broad range of sweet cakes and pastries, including this divine peanut butter pie, which, straight out of the fridge tastes like creamed peanut butter fudge atop an almost chewy, lightly crunchy, chocolate biscuit base. They also make amazing cakes to order and carry great trail snacks like maple sweetened cookies and picnic favorites like their delicious vegan GF quiche (which even has my mum's stamp of approval and she is the quiche queen), Service is personal and friendly, there are seats there both indooor and out, but it's a very popular take out spot. Get there in the morning for the bagels, they have cakes and delicacies available all day long. This is a great 'small business' to support, we are lucky to have it in West Sedona.

The decor could use an upgrade as it was quite cluttered and just looked messy and not professional. Otherwise, great place!
