Gravity Coffee — Restaurant in Gilbert

🙄 I will have to start with the location. It is really hard to get into if you are going south on Val Vista. It is on Val Vista, just north of Germann, not quite on the corner. There is a Circle K on the actual NE corner. Gravity is behind the Circle K. There is nowhere to turn left off of Val Vista. I thought that I could turn on a little street before the corner and come in the back way, but there was no back way. It is just a little field with barbed wire. So, I got back on Val Vista and thought that I would just make a U-turn on Val Vista and get there-WRONG! 👎 There are no U-turns allowed at the intersection of Val Vista and Germann. So...I made a left turn and had to go down a bit before I could make a U-turn on Germann and then backtrack to Val Vista, make a right and finally pull into their driveway.

They have 2 drive-thru lanes. 🚘 It is nice that they have multiple menus for you to make up your mind if you were in a line. I wasn't sure where to place my order, so I just drove around and up to the window/sliding glass door where the employee was standing. I wanted a low calorie/no calorie cold drink, so I ended up getting an iced green tea. Emphasis on the ice. Maybe if I would have gotten a hot tea it would have been a bit stronger, but the tea looked VERY light. They don't seem to sell any food, only beverages, but they do have an app and a rewards program.

I needed to get back onto Val Vista, so I had to drive through the Circle K parking lot to turn right on Germann, to make a left back onto Val Vista.

🙂 I like to try new places at least once. The employee was very polite and friendly and did offer the rewards program, but unless Gravity starts to have amazing deals or their coffee is better than the other coffee places we already have, the Circle K next door might be its biggest competitor. The only thing that Circle K doesn't have is a drive-thru, but their drinks are cheaper and they...

Found this place by happenstance driving through the old neighborhood. It's coffee, so of course I had to stop and try it..duh. The building was unique and charming, a nice change from the other drive thru coffee establishment down the road. So you don't order at a microphone to order when you pull up to floor to ceiling doors on each side so the bariatrics can walk to you. They serve a white coffee, never heard of it before, so naturally....I was intrigued. Who wouldn't be? I ordered an Area 51. Can u guess the flavors from that? White coffee and creme de menth. Oh those little green peeps, lol. So not having tried white coffee I was told people either like it or don't. If I didn't like it, They would make me a new drink. Don't let the look decieve you, it may look like cloudy water brewing, but has an amazing. Not dark and bold but a sweet nutty flavor. You really could drink it without adding anything. The caffeine level is also a bit higher then the normal coffee bean roast. It was very pleasant. Hot or cold! I got a large or x lg, not sure. But this bad boy was actually 32 oz. Not the mere 16 or 20 like most places serve. The menu was nice, some of the same similar drinks fave you find at other places, but some unique to the shop, same fornthe energy drinks, which I don't like but let me say, some of the flavor mixes sounded very yummy!,. If you find yourself near one of these charming places, do give it a whirl and try. You may just find a...

I was excited to try gravity coffee, as it’s only 5 mins from my house but after my experience today I am EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED! When I pulled up to the drive thru to give my order, I notice there are bees flying everywhere. I am terrified of bees and also ALLERGIC! I rolled my window down about two inches just to give enough room to stick my card out the window. And in the 5 seconds it took to do so, 2 bees had flown into my car, to which I then panicked and got out of my car and there were even more bees outside so I got back in my car hoping the bees had flown out, which they did. I then sat in my car as they made my drink and that’s when I also observed that there were bees flying around the girls inside making the drinks!! There had to have been at least 30 bees around my car and inside the establishment. I don’t think it’s very professional to keep a business open if there is a bee problem. The right thing to do would have been to close the shop down for the day and call someone to fix the problem. Not to mention it’s unsanitary having bees flying around in the building, and it’s not fair to the ladies working to have to be around bees all day either. And me being allergic, it could have been such a bigger issue than it was if I had gotten stung! I eventually got my drink and drove away but talk about a stressful experience for a very...
