I came mid afternoon and the upper box car was pretty calm and pleasant. Had the white chocolate frappe which was nice.

The best coffee! I went today and got their Horchata drink and it was honestly the best coffee I’ve ever had! Made with oat milk so no tummy ache! I didn’t even think I liked oat milk. My husband got black coffee and also agreed the BEST. We need one in the northeast. So good I’ll be driving downtown again this week for one. Word of advice don’t order a small.

Yummy!! We stopped here during our road trip for some quick coffee and it was so tasty and eye catching :D The charcoal coffee was delicious with oat milk! The drinks are unique & the service is amazing, highly recommended stopping by.

Though its quite expensive (over $7 for a small), I definitely recommend the oatmilk taro latte with boba. Super cute shop with lots of patio seating, and I appreciate the non-dairy options.

Great coffee place, real unique place and the coffee was actually decent priced and great tasting. Id recommend and will visit again.

This place was voted best coffee 3 years in a row. So it should be good right? If good means your vanilla latte is pure syrup no espresso then maybe. Not only does the late look like pure milk but it is overly sweet. Did I mention one shot of espresso is going to run you $2.19. Half the cost of the latte. I had attempted to make it taste somewhat better but honestly if im going to spend $7 on a medium coffee then I would have been better off anywhere else.

Cool place but drinks werent good.We got the Horchata Oat Milk Boba Latte and Mazapan frappe.The boba had a strange texture, wasnt chewy and soft. It was dry, like an old candy? Was not good.The Mazapan Frappe was okay but didnt taste like Mazapan.The drinks werent overly sweet so thats good, but I wouldnt go back.

While their website didnt mention oatmeal, they definitely have some! Two flavors priced right. I love all the vegan options of milk.

I’ve visited EP several times and never got around to visiting this little spot. The container upstairs is super quaint and perfect to read/work.My favorite part was the vibe. Coffee was ok but still good enough to hang around this cute spot.

My mom and I went to get a drink while doing a walk around the office district. She got a coffee with toffee nut syrup and I got the horchata oat milk boba drink and they both were amazing totally recommend!!

Great little place. The drinks are all really good, and the mazapan items are a definite highlight. Good place if youre lactose intolerant since there are options to substitute the milk. Atmosphere is lovely, and it is in a good location for walking around with a drink.

Great coffee place. They served coffee the way it is supposed to be, strong, bold and with character. What you get with your visit? Top quality product in a friendly place, next to the plaza, and with real friendly employees.Anything more than you need? I don’t think so.The only reason I don’t give a 5/5 is because sometimes the machine that makes the cappuccino is not working well and you have to wait for your coffee more than the usual. I guess I had bad luck.

My experience at the coffee box was meh. I ordered a Mocha Frappuccino and taro boba. The boba was not actual boba and the Frappuccino had a weird aftertaste. The only thing I like about this place is the architecture.

I always buy the charcoal latte but I have had the other drinks on the menu. Everything is pretty delicious. The macaroons are not worth the price. Buy a muffin instead

Stopped in for coffee on a Friday morning. The ladies working were so pleasant! I got a medium latte and it was delicious. It’s a small space, though service was quick and I was out in a few minutes.

Was in town for one night and this coffee shop was within walking distance from my hotel, plus it looks cool so I walked over. I assure you it’s not just a neat building! I have to mention I couldn’t chill inside due to Covid restrictions so I got mine to go. 2 things; 1 my mocha latte was fabulous! Delicious without a doubt. 2 they come in larger sizes which for a video editor like myself is must for lasting more than 5 min. The woman working the window was super kind and joyful and it was a pleasure ordering from her. You could see her smile even with a mask on! (For the manager reading this, it was Wednesday June 3rd around 5pm I believe) please stop by and check them out if you are in this part of El Paso. *bought sticker for laptop 👌

One of my favorite places to go! And I love how it’s close to the park, it makes for a wonderful day out. Plus they have non dairy options which is a big plus for me

Review №26

I got a pistachio latte with coconut milk and whipped cream it is to die for. To the owner I only gave 3 stars because the two women at the window were very rude and abrupt when I go to a restaurant or establishment its not just about the taste of something its about the quality the service and how its presented along with the taste .

Review №27

Cute place, but... I want a COFFEE drink, not a MILK drink. Their “small” is a big 12-oz but only one shot of espresso! So I asked for a second shot and less milk. I got a pretty-good cappuccino for a bit more than $5. As it turns out the medium is $3.85 and has *2* SHOTS. So what I should have ordered was a medium with 1/2 the milk!

Cute and quaint. Loved the mural art. Nice quiet lil place. Coffees aromatic and delightfully tantalizing. Assortment of desserts also look delicious. Tjere are 2 levels to this little escape. So come by with your favorite book or friend and enjoy a little escape from the heat this summer... I bet the winters even better here.

Well, this place is small (for those not aware) but it has plenty of space to hang out with friends or your s/o. We went on a group of 7 and we had a great time. Service is good, coffee taste amazing and there’s a delicious Mazapán smoothie that taste like heaven. 100% recommended💕 Also there’s plenty of parking around the place so no one will have problems parking there!

Coffee Box- I want to start by saying I LOVE THIS CUTE COFFEE SHOP! I HIGHLY recommend this place! I am a Matcha lover & there Matcha Smoothie was the bomb! I paid $4.69 for the large & it was great! I love the way the Coffee Shop is designed. The workers here are so kind & friendly!This place is awesome for a coffee date or to hang with friends! They do have a bathroom, and I will say the place is kinda small but it’s manageable! I love this place, really I do, it’s a cool place to visit in Downtown El Paso! You can get some great photography shots on the upper floor of the coffee Box! 😍😍 I also thought there Macaroons were tasty! I will certainly come back! An easy 5 Stars!

Usually pretty happy with place.. But today, I ordered a coffee and they didnt even ask if I wanted creamer or sugar, so i ended up with black coffee, which i had to wait till i got home to add creamer and sugar. And they filled it so full, it spilled on me and in my cup holder.

The owner of this establishment has done very well with their marketing. I had heard about the Coffee Box from friends for a while and had an opportunity to check it out today while I was in the area. The concept was always so unique to me and it really is! Reminds me of the space-saving tiny homes concept but into a trendy and quirky establishment. The tea options are great, and though I dont drink coffee, you can tell there is great quality and it smells amazing! Also, a perfect place to get a gift for the coffee enthusiast in your life or to get a quick fix for a sweet tooth. I was able to sit upstairs and enjoy the view of the Plaza and other surrounding buildings. The location is perfect as well if youre looking to stay in the livelier part of downtown.

This place sells some of the best coffee in the city! I ordered a horchata latte and it had an incredibly intense flavor...the mix of espresso and the sweetness from the horchata flavor were an excellent combination. Theyre open somewhat late as well when its date night and you dont want the night to end just yet.

The best coffee shop in El Paso, awesome place that for a reason has earned to be one more icon for this border town. Freshly brewed coffee, sweet and tasty pastries, great teas and amazing assortment of coffee based drinks; the customer service is better than the best and for whoever visits El Paso this is a must stop in downtown right across the street from the Plaza de los Lagartos, within walking distance from the Plaza Theater and Southwest University Park.-The best coffee shop in El Paso!

Review №61

Attempted to order iced drinks just to be told they werent making cold drinks at the moment. No big deal, went ahead and ordered anyways. I was expecting something better I guess because the coffee was subpar. My husbands drink was made way too hot (he asked for drinkable) and all of a sudden the barista had ice to put in it to cool it down. Mind you, she said no cold drinks could be made. The barista that helped us had an attitude with us for no reason too.The location looks awesome but thats all Ill come for, the art and view. Heads up, barista told me that I had to pay to park. Again, no big deal. $10 for parking, 10 minutes waiting for drinks totaling a little under $20, total of 15 minutes there seems like a rip off and if you want to visit you should be aware too :)

Review №65

They get a few points for the artwork and the fun part about stacking containers in the middle of town. But if you call your shop something with coffee, you can at least make an effort on that part. They literally have a push button machine that they draw coffee from. Huge disappointment on the coffee front.***After your response - Thank you.I would be happy to comment on the quality of your products, however when I order a cold brew and I hear one colleague instruct the other to pour an americano over ice, I have a hard time saying anything positive. Location and creativity is on point though, I will hit you up next time, hopefully for a better delivery.

Review №66

The French macaroons are tiny and delicious! Cheese danish warmed up (done myself at home) was phenomenal. My white chocolate mocha was horrible. Was mainly just mocha and frozen. I thought I was getting a hot coffee.. nope frozen. I even confirmed that it was my drink just to be sure. I gave this drink a fighting chance as you can see but it just got worse as I ate the cream from the top. I ended up going to another coffee shop after this disappointment.

Two stars for creative usage of containers and friendly staff. The coffee, horrible. Had to throw it. Ordered an americano and taste burnt and dry. I can see if you like your coffee dolled up, this might work. If you want legit coffee, head elsewhere.

A really cool place, where they joined two storage containers together to make a coffee shop. Not much room inside, but they do have a seating area inside, and an outside sitting area on an upper level. The coffee was good and the staff was friendly and efficient. Spent a couple of mornings with my family enjoying the start of our day.

Coffee Boxs staff were welcoming, friendly, and knowledgeable of their products. I would say they surpassed my expectations flawless customer service.Their Nitro Coffee really impressed me. Its ultimately cold black coffee, no cream or sugar, but the nitrogen makes it noticeably smooth and creamy. Its also less acidy and less bitter than regular black coffee. It also cascades exactly like a Guinness or Boddingtons beer, a pleasant visual bonus.
