    Featuring cold brews and espressos crafted with an attention to detail that borders on obsessive, Cartel is pretty much the ideal for in-house roasted coffee in the Valley.

    The location is very central if you're in downtown. It's spacious for a downtown location. Can't go wrong for a place to do some computer work at.

    The people working at this location rarely seem to know anything about coffee, but they still manage to bring out a great batch brew of coffee.

    Great service. The Black Market Espresso beans & quality milk make a great cappuccino. Cartel roasts their own beans, so pick any coffee on the board & enjoy the freshness. Food is fresh, flavorful.

    Love Cartel coffee but not this location. There is only PAID parking nearby and inside there is nowhere to get cozy.

    The Salted Caramel Bar... One of the best things I have ever tasted... Ecstatic! Honey Latte is a yummy alternative to a caramel latte...

    BEST TODDY EVER. No exaggeration. And their bacon chocolate chip cookies are surprisingly tasty!

    The only spot with an outlet is the weird, sad therapy couch in the back corner. Prepare to look foolish.

    One of the only places in Arizona to get coffee prepared with a Clover machine. Worth the price and the trip!

    You have to try the Clover and ask them to tell you about the corporate Starbucks takeover.

    Apparently some of the employees are too hip to know how to make a drink based on the chronological sequence they were ordered. Twenty five minute wait for an iced drink? Come on!
