Press Coffee - EVB

I come here frequently on weekdays over my lunch break to study and get a coffee. I have Celiac disease (gluten-free) and my biggest concern when ordering is cross-contamination. I've NEVER had an issue here. So far, every drink I've tried is 100% gluten free. The baristas are super knowledgeable about ingredients and extremely patient and friendly while checking. I wouldn't be surprised if the whole drink menu is gluten-free - but I haven't tried everything yet. Today I learned they even rinse the steamer between every single use, so I don't have to worry about gluten-containing alternative milk residue. The kitchen is IMMACULATELY clean. I love the atmosphere here and it's honestly my favorite coffee place.

Press Coffee offers a 32 oz cuppa cold brew. Hovering around $7, this rocket fuel is a wonderful way to kickstart the morning with a lightening of your load, a quick spike to your anxiety, and a great way to sip a cool beverage at the beginning of the day. A note about the coffee, this brand pays attention to how coffee is sourced, which should be a routine amongst food establishments were it not so time and resource intensive. This means the price of good ingredient sourcing is built into the menu. A cuppa hawt cawfee was the best on the block, outcompeting the hotel brands that were available. Press Coffee was also in walking distance to the Sheraton Downtown Phoenix, maybe even crawling distance. Baked goods were available, and also were empanadas. One deal that was offered was an empanada and a coffee for $6 dollars. Gluten free food options were available but was not a strength in their menu.
