Giant Coffee

Iconic Valley coffee shop with serious espresso chops

Wild Bloom Coffee

Bright neighborhood cafe with specialty drinks

Summer Moon Coffee in Scottsdale 10

Summer Moon Coffee

Texas import known for their signature moon milk

Scottsdale (Kierland area)

Summer Moon brought their cult following from Texas to Scottsdale and the locals have embraced it. Their signature moon milk (a sweet, wood-fired cream) is what puts them on the map, and their cold brew with moon milk is basically a dessert in a cup. It's sweeter and more approachable than some of the serious specialty shops on this list, which makes it perfect for people who want great coffee that doesn't require a degree in extraction theory.
