A year later I finally got to try Livia's cold brew and it was worth the wait! I make my own cold brew at home 99.99% of the time but I just moved to Sierra Vista and yesterday was so hectic with my move that when I finally got home I didn't start a batch of cold brew, I instead quickly assembled my bed frame and collapsed with exhaustion. (A year ago I was just visiting and Livia's was closed that day.)
The price is excellent, especially for someone (me) who is used to the independent shops in Tucson charging far more for a very small serving of cold brew.
The flavor is excellent, and that's coming from someone who uses high grade organic beans at home, grinds them himself, and uses water perfectly filtered to complement the brewing process.

So very cute, lots of good good, the staff is obviously working to keep People safe, and I couldnât believe I had spent all day in that cave when I could have been at...

I'm pretty basic when it comes to coffee shop drinks- cold brew or Americanos, but my companion loves the blended coffee concoctions and he rated them excellent both times we've been here. The cold brew was strong- good stuff! No problem getting cream on the side, wonderful stocked bar for sugar, stir sticks, etc.- even mints! And the piece de resistance is the bill. Fantastic prices for fancy coffee, makes your drink even more enjoyable. Cute little nicely designed seating area where you can hang out, and staff has been friendly each time we've visited. Thanks for giving us a spot to enjoy these coffee...
