Pura Vida Grinds Coffee Shop — Restaurant in Mesa

Pura Vida is truly one of the best parts of my Arizona story. I stumbled upon this shop over a year ago when I first moved to AZ, and I can confidently say it’s the best coffee I’ve ever had. I’ve always dreamed of being able to walk into a coffee shop and order “the usual” — and I finally got to live that here. My go-to is the iced dirty chai and it is absolutely phenomenal!!!

The owners are incredible...so kind, personable, friendly, and genuine. I honestly consider them friends at this point. Their warmth and hospitality are a big part of what makes this place so special.

Even though I’m moving to Scottsdale soon for a new job, I’ll 100% still be making the drive to Pura Vida. It’s that good. If you’re looking for amazing coffee, community, and people who truly care, this is...

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “Pura Vida Grinds in Mesa is absolutely a gem — from the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and relaxed.

I really have hard time finding a great coffee shop nowadays because whenever I go, I complain that they don’t make my coffee the way I want. Then by chance we found this coffee shop and let me tell you the atmosphere was so cozy, the service was very friendly and the coffee was GREAT!! The atmosphere and service was that great to the point we didn’t realize that they were going to close at 2pm and at 2:30 we decided to leave then realized they close at 2. We apologized the owner and she was so cool about it. Imagine she didn’t even come earlier to tell us to leave which was very kind. Will def go back here....
