Small cafe. The coffee is superb. Limited amount of pastries but they r delicious too.
I really enjoy the coffee from this place! Unfortunately the only draw back isnt from the place itself, but the lack of free parking. Other than that, the vibe and atmosphere is desirable.
Great place to stop for a cup of coffee on a long bike ride. They have outdoor seating which I prefer when on my bike but if you like to sit inside they have plenty of room for a small group. The coffee was delicious and they have your standard pastries, though if you want one you better get there early. I arrived around 8:30 and they were already low on selection.
Stopped in here on the way through Tempe and got a oat milk latte and a cinnamon roll. The food was okay, was a little weird but the coffee was tasty. The employee and atmosphere was lively and pleasant and open and airy. Would definitely go back again.
Quick, fast, and friendly service. Even brought the drinks to us while we were seated.
I’ve been eyeballing this place since I moved in the area and finally decided to go! Very quick service and their coffee is delicious. It put me in a better mood right before I had to go to work!!!
Ive been coming to Kings for a long time and REALLY like this place! The baristas are awesome, the coffee is good and reasonably priced, good music, and theyve done a TON of work to make the place comfortable and look great. It makes me so happy that they engage local artists for the walls. That said, I would LOVE to give them a better rating... but they have persistent problems with their internet and this is a huge sticking point for any coffee shop. The baristas always do their best to help (reset routers or w/e), but having to constantly address temp fixes like this makes me not want to put up with the hassle when Im trying to sit down to some coffee and work. If you guys fix your net Ill drop a better review!
Kings would have been awesome IF it had a reliable wifi. Good service, chill ambiance, great location.it is a shame that they dont prioritize wifi as much as they should. Seriously, how is your wifi as bad as it is when 90+% of your customers are students who need wifi to do their homeworks?? Everytime i come i have to leave in half an hour..such a shame..
Smooth coffee, nice tea. Very low key and quiet atmosphere.
Great atmosphere, clean bathroom, and good customer service 👌🏽
Coffee and service were both excellent. Friendly barista and great indoor environment. I would love to see more outside appeal, but can also only control so much! Dont pass up for a local coffee.
Great coffee, pastries pretty good. Wish I couldve tried a danish! Ill be back
Love their coffee so much I bought a hat! Definitely check this place out. Theres a patio out front, and responsibly placed indoor seating to comply with social distancing recommendations.
Not bad but not the best but better then the rest.
Love this place. Staff is super friendly and just a chill place to be productive. Coffee is stellar, too.
The barista was friendly and helpful! The k side was pretty bare bones and nothing special. The hot matcha latte was decent. Overall okay!
Small plca, good coffee, can bask in the sun during winters
King Coffee provides an excellent environment for crackin the books. Perfectly located next to ASUs Tempe campus, this is a great spot for Sun Devils. King offers two private study coves, where you can get some real work done. Latte was wonderful, music playlist was even better. Welcoming environment and great service.
Coffee has a great flavor, cappuccino was nicely foamy. Felt like the foam could have been better consistency, bubbles were rather large (and yes I get awfully snotty about my cappuccinos so keep that in mind 😂). It wasnt my favorite cappuccino, but I would absolutely go here again for a cappuccino. The cafe is fairly spacious with lots of small tables and a few bigger ones for groups, it seems like it would generally be easy to find a place to sit (besides looking for a perfect cappuccino, knowing Im going to be able to have a place to sit and read while drinking it is a big deciding factor on where I go). First time at King and I would for sure go back.
I love this place. Found it on accident a few years ago and couldnt have asked for a better happy-accident. Cold brew here is strong and keeps you going!! Coffee is always good here and so is the atmosphere. Great place for study sessions, hangouts, and coffee dates. The staff here is amazing too.
Perhaps the most comforting of coffee shops I’ve tried. Coffee is neither pretentious nor expensive. The space is small, but never crowded. There are books and games, local artwork hangs from the walls, and the place feels more or less like your living room.It’s a wonderful place to grab a coffee, whether to drink on the go or to sit awhile with some Thoreau, and just enjoy the day.
This is an awesome downtown Tempe coffee shop. Great look and feel, good WiFi, local as can be. Solid coffee and tea and a great place to hang out or to get some work / studying done.Highly recommended, for sure.
Cool College and chill coffee place. Guy who worked there was very nice. I was hoping the espresso and my latte would be a little bit stronger but that might have been my fault for not asking for another shot Maybe. Im used to A Little Bit Stronger espresso or a different pull from the Machine. But I like the little spot and its very good for doing homework or having coffee. The only warning is make sure you know the parking situation, theres parking in the back and one spot in the front.
Small shop, but easy to find. Parking in the back. Outdoor seating, small & cozy inside, relaxing and really good prices on coffee. I ordered an Iced Caramel Latte, the coffee was good and not too sweet but not very flavorful. Maybe it’s what I ordered, maybe it was too much ice and got diluted not sure but could’ve used just a dab more of flavor or stronger coffee.
Best tasting cup of drip coffee in the Valley. There are so many coffee joints that are hipster and eclectic but their coffee will suck. This place actually makes good coffee. Good coffee= coffee that has a good taste that doesnt require a bunch of sugar and cream.
Cold brew was delicious! Super refreshing on a hot day! Our barista was so friendly and definitely brightened up our last day in Phoenix! Really nice atmosphere and great service- would highly recommend.
Very chilled place, pleasant, great for relaxing or working. Nice staff. Good range of cafe drinks and some quality nosh. Staff is cool and you should be able to find a seat to kick and hear soft, indie vibes, which is EXACTLY what this place is.Stick it to Corporate America and get your bevy fix here. This kind of people-run place is so organic and just what the doctor ordered.
10/10 BEST coffee in the ENTIRE WORLD
Coffee is really tasty, barista‘s are very good at foaming the milk. Prices are surprisingly low for specialty coffee. There is comfortable seating but it generally fills up pretty quickly.
Discovered this while looking for a good place to study. Honestly, I just wish they had more outlets. Everything else is great.
The place is very clean and well put together with the decor. Although it is very spacious there is not much seating inside or outside. I ordered a coffee and a muffin. I asked for room for cream but the server filled it tithe very top. First issue was that she ignored my request. The second was that the coffee was way too hot that I couldnt sip any to make room. The last issue was that I had to walk carefully to not spill any coffee in the floor or on myself or anybody else as I looked for a lid. The coffe and muffin were good but nothing special. Better option elsewhere but it was not bad.
Neat, funky coffee shop. Excellent customer service. Coffee is great
They do an excellent pull of espresso, their drip is solid, and the service is friendly. Its a great place to get some studying done. They should fix the outlets on the walls in the Cubbies though :-)
Very tasty cortado. Great music. Unique ambiance. Some pretty funky drinks if youre into it. Banana nut bread was great. This place is awesome! Its a great spot to meet friends for coffee, grab a quick snack, and/or study in between classes. Ive tried their iced Caramel Macchiato and it did not disappoint!
Stopped by for the first time this morning and loved it! Really cool space inside and the barista was very friendly and helpful. Coffee was excellent and I am very particular with coffee so I was impressed. Will definitely be coming back.
Love this place, mostly because it’s where I can enjoy a great matcha latte and cappuccino.But lately for a couple of Sundays, I stop by a few minutes after 8am, when it’s supposed to be open already, and the door is locked and no one in sight to advise I’m there.
King Coffee has become my go to coffee shop in Tempe and for good reason. It is a close walk from ASU campus, the staff is always friendly, and everything I have had off of the menu has been excellent. They have a good variety of drinks and baked goods. For baked goods, Id recommend the strudel. They also have plenty of non dairy options (coconut milk, almond milk, soy milk) which is a plus. They seem to use some of the best beans, as I have never had a cup of coffee there that has tasted burnt or too bitter. All of their teas are loose leaf and brewed to order. My favorite is the lavender Earl grey.
Good coffee and cute shop
I love going to king coffee. Whether its for a quick coffee and go or to sit and hang out. The atmosphere allows for both. Mostly students and professors hang out here, but its got a cozy small coffee shop feel.
King coffee is a reasonably priced small coffee shop just outside ASU. I think they are a bit cheaper than Cartel, their mocha, espresso, and other products are solid. I usually go for their cold brew which hits hard and is usually on point. Parking can be tricky, usually in the back there are spots though.
Great chai, excellent indie art atmosphere. Healthy food and decent scratch pastries. Glad they are open a bit later now than they used to be!
Great small cafe, the environment is more relaxing than the Starbucks at ASU.
Drip Coffee is decent. Atmosphere is cozy and calm. Prefer King Coffee to nearby cartel coffee, because Cartel drip is acidic with poor flavor. King is milder but better balanced.
Coffee always comes with a smile and a great attitude, 2.50 for a nice large cup of dark roast. couldnt stay away if I wanted to.
Quaint little indie coffeeshop tucked away in Tempe. I ordered an Iced White Mocha and it was excellent, along with being a fair bit cheaper than Starbucks. The atmosphere was nice, too, great for writing or studying, and I loved that a local artist had some watercolors hung up. Cool touch. I will say though that the couches there are godawfully uncomfortable. I hovered over giving them a four star review for that, but the quality of the coffee pushed it to five.
Beautiful, comforting atmosphere. Very kind baristas [baristOs? Is there a gender difference in that word?] I dig the music as well. It’s more spacious inside here than I initially expected.
Good place, outlets for charging available here. Parking is a bit crammed. Had cappuccino. It was good... coffee and the milk were in right proportions. Friendly customer service.
Small, local coffee shop with some of the best drip coffee close to the ASU campus. When I had the black Irish breakfast tea it was a little weak, but it was still good. Overall, Id recommend King Coffee in a heartbeat for any coffee lover
So friendly so chill, played chess with my nephew and had amazing coffee and scones. Love those beautiful ladies behind the counter.
Easily one of my favorite spots in Tempe. The atmosphere is so laid back and cozy. I get so much done when I study or work here, especially if I can grab one of the little nooks in the back! My roommate and I are here all the time and pretty much always get an iced matcha, dirty chai, or hazelnut latte and theyre all SO GOOD. If youre looking for a good place to grab some coffee, hang out, or get work done I would definitely recommend giving this place a try.
I visit this place more often than any other cafe around here. The coffee is great and the staff are even better. The best of all, no queue. I usually order a mocha and it never goes wrong.
After a hot 5K my sister-in-law treated us to King Coffee where neither of us had ever been before! It was delisious and had a cool vibe. Would not be afraid to stop in again for a iced latte w almond milk splash of coconut and French vanilla! The tastebuds were happy!
They have a great cold brew and chai tea latte! super cute little local place with a slight hipster flair (dont hipsters always have the best coffee!)
Love the remodel, such a warm and wonderful space. The dirty chai latte is the best Ive tried. It is not too sweet, just the right balance of flavors.
Nice servicing and well-communicative staff. My favourite caffeteria in the town with tasty and affordable coffee, definitely well woth place!!!
Got a latte, it was very well done. The shop is mellow and a good place to hang out and enjoy your coffee/espresso/tea.
Great small coffee shop next to ASU . Had a great tasting americano, better then most around the area. Nice place to go and get away from the hustle of campus life. And they have muffins!!
Very calming vibes. Excellent coffee.
Sooo good!! I loved it! 🙌🏽 its a super chill relax place with great coffee!
Coffe is really good and the scon
Been coming here for years as I used to work at ASU just across the street. Great coffee and the remodel is fabulous. Some soft chairs, some work spaces and soft music in the background.
Very hip college coffee spot. Coffee isnt bad but the atmosphere is excellent. I was able to get alot done here
Best Americano in Phoenix and the lemon poppyseed muffins are pretty delicious too!
King Coffee and their owners are rad. Awesome spot in the heart of Tempe for students and locals to grab a well brewed cup of Joe. The plaza is a cool spot that offers a unique boutique next door as well as a bookstore and Pilates studio. Awesome place to grab a coffee and people watch! Have seen this commercial spot for a long time and have always wanted someone to open up a coffee shop there. If you go to ASU you have to check this place out in between classes.
Great coffee, tastes fresh and yummy and the girl working was very nice.
A nice little coffee shop, but friendly staff. The signage out front could be a bit better as i found it really hard to spot it while driving. Also, parking is in the back of the building.
Coffee/tea not bad, liked the atmosphere, but wish there were more tables and chairs. very good place to chit-chat with your friend if you are around.
Love this litle coffee shop...5 stars if they did better making sure the drip coffee they serve is at a proper temperature.
Got a really great iced espresso drink which had the slightly nutty taste that you only get from the crema of a well pulled shot. Love this place!
Nice.Small close to AS campus.Sells sandwiches, sweets,sweets,coffee. and other drinks.1bathroom.Lots of different pictures.Nice peaceful.Music plays quietly somewhat in the background.Nice place to child and think.Customer service is good.They take debit and cash.2booths with plugs if you have a laptop.WiFi:kingcoffee
Best almond milk cappuccino presentation yet. Jennifer the barista will be famous one day if she chooses to enter the international barista competition in Seoul South Korea.
The employees are incredibly friendly and inviting. Its a nice place to go drink coffee and work.
Friendly staff and nice atmosphere. They roast in house and have a good coffee selection.
Good vibes for working! I got there before they opened and they still let me come in and sit.
Great coffee! I have purchased the pour over and the latte on several occasions and it has always been fantastic.
Best Coffee in Phoenix Area, tried quite a few. They roast their own beans in smaller batches which allows them to brew a craft cup of Jo.
One of the best Coffee houses in Tempe. Wonderful place to hangout
A great coffee place right across the street from the ASU campus. They have punch cards so you can earn free coffees and the staff is really nice!
Great spot in Tempe for coffee and espresso drinks with ideal seating areas for either conversation or study.
I like the coffee, but there are limited outlets and the music+large groups of people make it a great place for socializing, but not studying, which is okay!
Awesome coffee, friendly people. Beware of holiday hours! They close early in the afternoon on school breaks.
Great atmosphere and better coffee. Roast in-house; has a brighter flavor in the espresso but it works very well.
Great neighborhood coffee shop.
This is a great, little non corporate nugget. A bit pricey though.
Very cozy place. Coffee brew is not bad, and free refills
Baristas are so friendly, and really know their stuff. The coffees are fabulous, Im definitely hooked. Try the toddy!!
Great atmosphere. Friendly employees. Perfect place to chill or do work.
Very friendly staff, I love the expansion. The food options were really good as well
Great little local place if you live on Mill or go to ASU
