To start, the concept and mission is the best thing about Spenser's and I wish we made it in sooner but I am grateful we stopped in today. Everyone working was so kind and just sweet, I loved the compliments from the cashier (she was a delight and her smile was very contagious). I got a PSL and it tasted really good, I liked that it had a floral note to it. I also got a cinnamon roll to go and it was a bonus that they could warm it up. My hubby and I enjoyed it across the street at the park and so did our dog lol Can't wait to come back and hang out in the shop because it seemed like a relaxing place to hang out with friends and enjoy the time!

My favorite coffee shop in Surprise! I cannot wait to go back! I loved all of their Valentine's specials. They have some merch for you to browse and purchase. They also have a lot of pre-packaged treats. This place is definitely meant for folks who love their drinks on the sweeter side. I had friends who did not enjoy their drinks because they were too sweet but it was perfect for me. Staff was extremely friendly and it was very heart-warming to see how they knew their regulars and their orders so well. The love potion (strawberry white mocha) was my favorite. They have seating indoors and outdoors.

Super cute coffee shop. A fun mix of speciality drinks are available. I got a iced coconut cream pie latte with coconut milk, I did ask for it half sweetened and I would 100% recommend that since it is still pretty sweet. Majority of their food items are gluten free and there is a large variety of options. The cashier was super sweet and the shop was not understaffed. The interior was comfy and great for studying, meeting with friends, or working. Free internet!

My wife and son love this place. This is one my my wife's favorite coffee shops in the west valley. I am not much of a coffee fan, but I really enjoyed how bright and smiling all the employees were and the interior of the building is very welcoming and smells wonderful. I recommend a stop by if you are in the area.

Can't believe I've never been here before, especially when it's so close by! I love the mission behind this coffee shop and how inclusive they are to people with disabilities. They have a variety of different menu options alongside their seasonal selection. I tried their rusty spur latte, which did not disappoint! The blackberry flavor complemented the richness of the coffee very well, and was super refreshing. There were a ton of GF and sugar free sweet options available. They're located right next to sanity salon which appears to do collabs with Spencer's place. For June, they're offering a $65 enzyme facial with a complementary refresher from Spencer's!

After hearing about their mission, I always make it a point to support local businesses plus they have some interesting coffee creations and served in a coffee flight to sample a few. Upon enter the shop everyone was super friendly and helpful it's an awesome coffee shop making a difference. Ice Coffee Flight: A Apple Crumble Cake (Heated): A

My mother-in-law really likes this place, so we came here on her suggestion! This is sort of a big deal because she rarely likes to buy coffee out. She likes brewing it at home. :) On the way there, I Yelped it and was thrilled to read that it had a five star average rating. It was a Tuesday morning around 10AM. We were immediately greeted pleasantly by a young woman cleaning the tables outside. Once inside, we saw that it was pretty busy. There was a mixed bag of all ages, individual and in small groups. The decor is warm and inviting. I saw from the photos on Yelp that there were coffee flights. I'm glad I saw that because I didn't see it anywhere on the menu. I asked the person at the register about it (who, by the way, was super friendly, helpful, and overall very pleasant) and she said they absolutely do have flights and pulled out a tray that had pre-made flavors (see my photos!) I ordered one as iced. The flight was super cute and so fun to try. I'm not a flavored coffee type of gal, so this was a nice way to try flavors I might not have ordered as a full size. My daughter and I shared the flight and each did a rating in order of which we expected to like in what order and also in order in which we actually liked them. Silly, I know, but again, this was so fun. My mother-in-law ordered a chai latte which she really likes. She does not like it really hot, so we asked if we could order it warm and they said absolutely. We also ordered a couple of pastries which were fine. I ordered a toasted plain bagel with cream cheese. There was a lot of cream cheese in it, but that's not a big deal because I just scooped some aside. Everything was good and the service was outstanding. I read while in the shop and also saw on their website that they employ adult persons with intellectual and developmental disabilities. As a former special education teacher, I love love love this. Five stars for Spencer's Place!

Spencer's Place is more than just a coffee shop--it's a coffee shop with a purpose. Rich in both faith and flavor, this hidden gem in Surprise, AZ, offers a warm and welcoming atmosphere that feels like home. The staff are friendly, outgoing, and incredibly knowledgeable. Always ready to help with a smile, they make every visit feel special. Whether you're in the mood for coffee, tea, a refreshing drink, or something delicious from their menu of local eats, Spencer's Place delivers on taste and service. If you're ever in Surprise, AZ, make it a point to stop by Spencer's Place. You'll leave with a full heart--and a full cup.

We found Spencer's Place after we moved to Surprise and have loved it ever since! Fantastic coffee drinks, great service, and a place to relax and recharge. We cannot say enough about it!

Shelbey N.

We absolutely love Spencer's Place!! They partner with our church and we were able to go and try them out for the first time after we were gifted a gift card to come get a free cup of coffee. We have now been several times and it is certainly a place we make a point to stop in to if we are in the neighborhood. Their flights of coffee are super cool and fun- deff get one! The cinnamon rolls that they have up my the register are to die for!! Service is never anything less than amazing. The staff have beautiful hearts and souls and the warmest happiest smiles. I love supporting small local businesses and will be a lifetime supporter of this establishment and all of the good that they do and love that they show the Lord's children.

Spencer's place is a coffee shop located in Surprise that employs individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. They recently celebrated their 4th anniversary and opened a second location nearby as well. The front doors were wide open on a beautiful Arizona spring day, and Racquel and Heidi greeted me with big, friendly smiles. I was eyeing the pastries on the counter when Racquel started talking to me about the pop tarts. I decided to have one, and she recommended I have her warm it up. It was like eating a warm peach cobbler... comfort food. Heidi walked me through different drinks and helped me decide on one of their specials this month. The sign board of specials changes theme with each month, and being that it was April, the theme was all blue drinks in honor of Autism Awareness month. I enjoyed my berry breeze botanical with lotus natural energy and added coconut milk. It was bright and refreshing...thank you Heidi. As I was taking photos and video of the shop, Racquel continually smiled and waved. She came over to check on how I liked my order, and we got to chatting. She even walked me over to show me her portrait on the wall of staff caricature photos. Her energy was so positive and electric, and it really was much needed light in my day. The majority of the customers left with the baristas waving goodbye and saying their name. So the shop obviously has loyal customers. Raquel definitely made me feel special when I left as she remembered my name and gave me a big smile to go.

Spencer's Place, a second home. Outstanding staff who always greet you with a heart warm and welcoming smile. A very stylish ambiance that's perfect for your local study spot, or if just looking to catch up over some coffee. Offering tons of sweets that all seem to be locally made, a standard drink menu, and a monthly rotating menu as well to switch things up a bit. My Fiance and I fell in love with this place since the first day we stepped through their doors, and strongly urge you to give this place a try if you haven't done so as you won't be let down.

Recently drove over to Surprise with my mother who had heard about the Spencer's Place from a local news report on TV. First off, the staff was amazing! They were all so friendly and helpful and the coffee (lattes in our case) were terrific. We tried a couple of the homemade raspberry-prickly pear pop-tarts and they were delicious too. The interior of the place is well done, but we sat outside on the patio and loved it. As good as the coffee, pastries and service are, the best part of Spencer's Place is that it's a mission driven business, The stated mission of Spencer's is: "Spencer's Place is a project created in partnership with Employed and Overjoyed Foundation to introduce equal employment opportunities for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities." "Spencer's Place provides adults with disabilities job training and direct skill development to earn a paycheck, build relationships, gain a sense of purpose, and show the community the beauty of diversity and inclusion." The coffee and pastries are worth the trip, but the mission and the good that the wonderful people at Spencer's Place are doing in their community should make it a mandatory stop for anyone heading to or through the Surprise area! read more

I just love this gem! First of all, I'm so excited to have another local coffee shop. Second, their purpose and mission is inspiring and draws my business to them, hiring and employing people with disabilities. And of course, the product and people are awesome! I've only had their cold brew because, well, that's what I drink. I find it the perfect strength and flavor...and that first sip! Ahhh. They have pastries supplied by a local bakery and have sandwiches, small bites coming soon! To top it all off is the amazingly friendly service. The owners are always there and so warm and genuine. This is my new go-to!! read more

Located in the same shopping Marley Park shopping plaza as Basha's, this coffee shop is tucked away from the street and is not easily seen by passersby. It's a quaint little place that always seems to have a little crowd. If you go, try their cafe mocha, it's quite good and prices are comparable to Starbucks. Next time I go, I'll definitely have to buy their cinnamon rolls as they looked pretty tasty last time I visited. This place gets kudos for hiring people with learning disabilities, which is a definite plus in my book. So next time you're in the area why not give them a try! :) read more

For almost one year I have glanced over to Spencer's Place as I arrived or left my hair salon next door. Today, I decided to go in and order my favorite beverage that I usually pick up at a major competitor. Without hyperbole, it was an excellent cup of iced chai with almond milk latte that I have had and that I did not make myself at home! Well done, Spencer's Place, and I am loving your "purpose." Inspiring and uplifting in a time of so much stressful happenings in our world. Michaela was my barista and she took the time to answer several questions! I will definitely return and will bring my friends and family members with me. read more

This place is great, truly. I do think that their drinks are a bit too sugary though. This isn't necessarily a bad thing, I just wish they made their drinks with less sugar and more of that coffee flavor. I also wish they specialized more in the essence of coffee in the sense of having more options when it comes to pour overs, drip coffees, etc; they might be too focused on the syrups rather than the coffee flavor in their drinks, and that's the only down for me! Other than that, the ambiance is super laid back and their service is good. read more

She took the time to recommend drinks based on what we liked and completely nailed it -- which isn't easy because my husband and I like totally opposite styles of coffee. I'm more of a coffee-forward person, while he loves the sweeter drinks. Somehow she found the perfect choices for both of us! We loved it so much we came back the very next morning to try something new. Madeline was there again along with two other baristas, and everyone was just as friendly and welcoming. Our second round of recommendations was another win and matched exactly what we were looking for! And it wasn't just the coffee -- we even got our son a strawberry shake and a breakfast wrap, and both were delicious! This place truly had something for all of us. That's how good it was -- we ended up coming back a THIRD time in two days to grab our last coffee fix before heading home. Great coffee, delicious food, amazing atmosphere, and even better people.

Originally we did go for the coffee flights mentioned in some yelp posts and on tiktok, undortunately they do not offer the coffee flights anymore. Instead we got the mint chip and the flower child. The Mint Chip was really minty but not too sweet, the drink was well balanced and easy to drink. The flower child was extremely aesthetically pleasing, the drink had nice floral tones with some sweetness but not too sweet. Overall both of these drinks were delicious and had a balanced flavor. I am excited to come back and try more of their fun concoctions.

Today I walked in and was greeted by Chey. (Hopefully spelled it right) She was so friendly and we got to talk quite a bit. She stated the shop's been here for about a year . I don't know how I missed it, but I'll be back often now that I know. I told her my love of cold brew and she offered me a sample of both their regular and Nitro. She said the Nitro has said to be liked more by their customers. I agree. It was so smooth. The regular had a tiny acidity to it, but not bad. Her customer service was awesome. I ordered one with vanilla cold foam and a tad sf vanilla. They only offer one size in drinks. I also went opposite of my usual and ordered a French Toast shaken espresso iced. It's one of theocmost popular. You only live once and I know I'll be amped all day ha ha. I then ordered an iced vanilla chai to take to my niece. The shop is small but offers a cozy room to chill, a few seats near the register as well as a table and a few seats out front. There is a fuel lot next door to park, but also a couple paved including a handicap accessible spot. All the drinks were so good. I honestly think the shake espresso may be my new favorite drink. I never thought I'd steal away from my cold brew, but it's got me hooked already. Come show them some love. Supporting local is so important and brings so much back to the community.

The big garage door was open. It seemed fairly busy. I would say it took about six or seven minutes to get my coffee and my yummy pop tart type of pastry. I did just a regular drip coffee. It was quite smooth and tasty. I would definitely recommend. The toaster pastry was a blackberry raspberry combo and of course I got it warmed up and it was absolutely delicious. I visit Phoenix area frequently and I've seen these popped up all over. I'm so glad I was able to stop. Try it. Enjoy it and I'll definitely stop again the next time I'm in town.

Afterward, she walked away and started talking negatively to her coworker while repeatedly looking back at me, which was uncomfortable and unprofessional. When it was time to order, her tone was condescending, as if I was inconveniencing her. As a small business owner and someone who has worked at Starbucks before, I understand customer service expectations, and this was by far one of the worst experiences I've had. Basic courtesy and professionalism were completely missing. I didn't get a name as her badge was flipped.

I recommend this one because I have worked here before and I have worked with my friends who I know from school and Younglife Capernaum. I have a friend who is named Spencer who I known since the 8th grade and he has been a wonderful person and a wonderful friend and I know his family so well. He has Down syndrome since he was born and he is very flexible. So I would like for you guys to come to Arizona to support him and this coffee shop and i am sure me and my friends would appreciate that alot. read more

I love that this place is employed by adults with Special Needs! I had the cinnamon roll and the lavender latte as well as a large black and blue! They tasted so good and I fully intend to come back and use this place to hang out and sudh with some good drinks and snacks! It looks like they're opening up more options sometime in the Spring with sandwiches and salads. I can't wait! read more
