"We got the lobo-which was fire and the mocha specialty drinks. Drinks were perfect, but the star of the show today was the rpg bagel. We inhaled it. I would give this place a 5 star if it had some music playing in the background. Although it was quite and pleasant-some background music would def take the atmosphere up a notch. Aside from that minor detail, the food, staff and over all feel of this place was best in class."

"My family loves hanging out here. We play games and drink delicious Costa Rican coffee. I always get the Nitro Cold Brew with brown sugar cream. It slaps me awake and gets me ready to play a little gin. I love the music and the friendly atmosphere here. No rush to leave, the owners are super friendly and it feels so welcoming. The love is authentic and so is the coffee."

"Went looking for cuban espresso, and this was closest we could find. Came here. Cozy, cool setup with games and comfy chairs. People here are so nice and sweet. Consensus: It's a damn good cup of coffee. Will be back again!"

"Cute little shop with great decor. I ordered a cortado and the coffee was rich and flavorful. My wife ordered a tea drink from their custom menu called the Happy Gilmore and it was pretty tasty too. Much better coffee than any of the chains in the area."

"The east valley was seriously lacking in coffee shops until Pura Vida popped up. They have a solid cold brew and a solid espresso shot. The bagels are the best around. No longer do you have to grab a crappy coffee at a diner, or support the big guy (Starbucks) They offer a small menu of breakfast items, a few pastries, coffee, specialty drinks and teas. They also have a lot of fun Costa Rica merch, beans and coffee brewing supplies."
