If there is one thing about me, I love a cute local coffee shop. My husband and I love exploring new ones, visiting old favorites, and trying new coffee drink combinations. Check out my list of local Scottsdale coffee shops worth visiting next time you are in town!  

Press Coffee 

Press has easily become one of my coffee shop staples, and luckily for me, they keep growing all around the valley! I have three easily accessible locations close to my house, one of which is inside Sprouts, which is dangerous when grocery shopping.   

Our favorite location is in McCormick Ranch, where we ride our bikes straight from our apartment to Press! It is one of the big reasons why I love living at Camden San Marcos!  

Light Heart Coffee  

With one of the cutest ambiances, Light Heart is a great place to take your friends and family for good coffee and good vibes. They have specialty drinks that change seasonally, which is fun if you are someone who loves trying new things like me! The summer menu has a banana latte, and you can add banana cream cold foam; it is unique and delicious! Highly recommend! They do have a social media presence, which means their little shop can get pretty packed. I recommend going earlier in the morning to avoid the crowds.  

Jojo Coffeehouse  

Jojo’s is an adorable breakfast and brunch place, but it is known for its coffee flights! In this iced coffee flight, you get mini versions of their cold brew, mocha, latte, caramel macchiato, and white mocha. It is perfect for someone who is indecisive and wants it all, or even someone who wants a fun new way to enjoy their cup of joe. When I went with my mom, we rated our flights and compared our favorites. It made us feel like true coffee connoisseurs!

Street Brew Coffee 

Street Brew is a hidden gem in a shopping strip in Scottsdale. It has a more punk vibe and the perfect painted wall for your selfie with a skull. While they offer great coffee, they also provide alternative options, such as matcha and energy drinks, so you have all the options for your caffeine fix.

Honorable Mention: AJs Fine Foods 

While AJ's is a local grocery store here in Arizona, it deserves an honorable mention as it has its very own café, where they serve coffee and pastries. They have every pastry, dessert, or baked good you can think of, and they make them all in-house! The team here at Camden Foothills is dangerously close to an AJs as it is in our parking lot! We are all huge advocates of their teas and coffees, and having one so close is just one of the many perks to living at Camden Foothills!

Scottsdale is a hub for so many fun activities, including buzz-worthy coffee spots! We also have some great restaurants that have been tried and approved by our local Arizona team members. If you are planning on moving to Scottsdale, we also know all the best places to call home - a Camden community, of course!
