Pura Vida Grinds

Y'all, I have found my new favorite place, hands down!The service (I believe just done by the husband and wife) was quick and accommodating. They allowed me to get my drink to enjoy and pay for the drink I would be taking to a friend when I was ready to leave. They have mugs if you plan to sit around to enjoy. Just make sure you ask for them otherwise you'll get the typical to-go paper cup. The chai wasn't too sweet or spicy, I'll have to ask how they make it or if it's a typical store bought pour like most coffee shops have. On my way out, I bought the cinnamon crumb cake with Nutella and let me say, I might have to convince them to make that a regular menu item. Probably the BEST cinnamon crumb cake I've ever had and then add Nutella...yummmmm!The space is a little cozy but the volume of the music and the quiet hum of them making drinks makes it a perfect spot to sit and enjoy some time.

Enjoyed my caramel macchiato from Pura Vida Grinds! The perfect coffee and milk ratio. Just the right sweetness. I requested to cut the sweetness in half and it was perfect. The place itself was busy for a Sunday morning. They offer food and coffee beans and a great variety of merch. The store itself is a bit small especially when it's busy. We sat outside on the patio. Regardless, I'd come back again and maybe pick up some coffee beans.

Sad, I thought this place would be better (4.9 Stars?). The coffee wasn't terrible but the sugar free flavoring tasted like straight aspartame. The coffee was pretty bland and not a very big size for the price. I wouldn't get Pura Vida again.

Absolutely love this coffee shop! I wish it was nearby where I live, as I would hang out there all the time! The coffee was great. The snack we had of a traditional Costa Rican dish was delicious. Sat outside with the sun on her feet and her face in the shade. Such a lovely time. Great vibe. Pura Vida!!

The customer service was wonderful! I was asked if I'd been there before and if I had any questions. The coffee was made fresh and it was delicious. The shop itself is very charming! Many people were sitting in the comfy seating areas. I will definitely be back!

Great coffee and friendly service. The ambiance is cozy and inviting. A perfect place to relax and enjoy a cup!

Well, it has been a long time since I've been back here. But my husband and I came by to get some coffee and bagels.We ordered the Cherry Green Tea and The Lobo (caramel mocha). Both were refreshing for this hot morning and had a great flavor.There's plenty of seating inside and a great vibe. The owners are so nice!It's always good to have options on caffeine in the East Valley!

I came to this place with my family because we wanted to try something new! We did not get to see the inside of the establishment as they are currently under renovation, however they are still serving guests. The employee was super sweet! She made great suggestions and was able to answer all our questions. The employee was also very knowledgeable about Costa Rica, which is nice considering it's a Costa Rica based coffee spot. I personally had the cookies coffee. It was very yummy, did not taste too roasty. It was a bit lighter of a taste which I like for my coffee. For those with kiddos, there are caffeine free options! My 4-year-old got a cookies flavored milk to drink. She gave it a thumbs upThe prices at this place are also very nice! We ordered 4 drinks for a total of $22! That was a surprise considering other places we pay a lot more. We will definitely be returning to this place! I am excited to explore the menu more and hopefully see the place after renovations are completed

I am so happy that this coffee shop is near by. Good coffee!!! No more just quick trip coffee. More importantly, a family owned business! Support this place. I am!!

I love the coffee and the vibe of the location. Overall well priced and amazing coffee. Love supporting small businesses. Thanks for making quality coffee.
