5/5 experience, owning my own roastery and coffee shop and visiting these awesome people give me hope and inspiration that everything from the food to coffee can by a hit out of the park and executed right with not only awesome ideas but it takes a dedicated staff to execute it right which they did! They were slammed when we went in but the line moved quick and the cashier and barista were attentive to my questions about the menu with care and professionalism! We didn’t wait long which we ordered for my wife and I and son! Definitely a forever place and destination for my family! Plus the owner took us on a tour of the facility!

Wow. From the moment you arrive, this place captures your imagination and senses. The smells of butterscotch and bourbon mingle with the aromatic beans and fresh food welcoming you. The staff was excited to offer recommendations and samples of unique items (butter brew, bourbon coffee) to ensure a good fit. The chai is arguably the best I ever had (smooth not spicy, if that's your thing) and the waffle with bourbon syrup was... legendary. We'll be back, a lot.

Great experience. We came around 1:20 on a Tuesday with our kids and we loved the theming. Our kids did the sorting hat drink minus the energy drink. I had the Drink that shall not be named and my husband had the Half Blood Chai. We also grabbed a chicken rice bowl. Everyone here was so friendly and helpful. We had a chance to chat with the owner and we will be back to check out their next theme! Fun family day out!

Accio Coffee! The shop is located in south Phoenix onsite of a lumber yard. This was a brilliant idea by the owner of Porter Barn Wood and Porter Iron Works to draw people in with a coffee shop. Plus, they get to show off their work with the cool wood ceilings and the iron fencing on the patio. The theme changes every couple of months, with past themes including Star Wars and Lego. And they go all out! The decor and the menu has a complete overhaul letting you be fully immersed in the themeing. The photos came to life, candles were floating, the movie was playing, and we even spotted platform 9 3/4. We added to the fun by wearing costume pieces and carrying wands. It brought us great joy to start our day so magical. I was sorted into Hufflepuff after mixing my drink (The Sorted Hat) with a mystery glitter cotton candy. The Herbologist drink was like an orangcicle with added spices. The champagne deviled eggs were delicious and the donut stack was a little added sugary fun for breakfast. We didn't use the Lumos spell as we really enjoyed the vibes of the darker interior lighting. Hurry, and apparate to Coffee Builders before the Wizarding world is gone!

I have been to The Coffee Builders twice now, and I have had an outstanding experience each time. It is one of my top five coffee shops in Arizona, and for good reason. I have had their regular cold brew and their regular hot coffee straight up black. What I like about them is their bold taste and how easy their coffee is on my insides. I can tell that they have brewed their coffee beans to perfection without any preservatives. While their coffee is incredible, the best part is the service. Every staff member is so friendly and fun to talk to. Whenever they are not busy, I enjoy having pleasant conversations with them. You can tell that they care about making everyone feel welcome and having a great experience in their shop. I did not meet the owner, Thomas, the first time I visited, but today he was there, and I would like to give him a shoutout for making The Coffee Builders possible. He appreciated the support and, like the other staff members, made me feel right at home. I like the atmosphere as well. The pleasant atmosphere makes it a great place to relax and enjoy your coffee. A perfect little coffee shop in Phoenix to grab a fantastic cup of coffee to start your day. I enthusiastically recommend it to anyone looking for an outstanding coffee shop in the Phoenix area, and I will be a loyal customer.
