Cartel Coffee Lab

It's a miracle to find gourmet espresso and pour-over coffee in an airport terminal . 10/10!

This is a gem! To have this place in an airport is a coffee lover's dream! professional & exceptional baristas. I have been here at different times of the day& my order is always perfect! Great Coffee

If you know me, you're getting this tip right now! Get a cappuccino . Nothing else. Just that. I wouldn't lie to you. Thank me later. Sip it while thinking of your loved ones. Forever <3

Worth a walk out of your way, near gate C13, for a craft coffee . Iced mocha and the egg and potato burrito (served all day, takes ~10 min to make, pressed in grill on all sides) both delicious.

Great pourover , awesome service, perfect seat for airport people watching .

The oolong is great and served loose leaf , which is rare to find in a coffee shop , let alone an airport .

A fantastic non Starbucks option at Phoenix airport . Pour overs as well as Aeropress coffee here. Coffee heads rejoice

Get a Chemex ! Well worth it. Was so happy to have really really good coffee while on vacation.

It is such a rarity to find truly great coffee in an airport . This Tempe-based craft coffee roaster delivers what you want in an important location.

Cartel is known for their craft coffee . The "craft" is carried all the way through: roasting -> brewing -> serving. You can get almost any drink to go, but the cappuccinos must be consumed on site :)

So thankful for craft coffee . Pour over coffee . Just the way God intended.

Iced Mocha Latte was tasty son. Hit the spot for a late night flight craving ☕️

Really great coffee for being in the airport spot.

What an awesome discovery! Even if the line ISN'T too long at the other coffee places , this one is a gem. I highly recommend the dirty Chai .

Coffee is good, not sure if it’s the best in the city ...but good to get you going and I’d stop through when back this way. ☕️

For the best experience wait for a freshly-brewed cup. In a hurry? Get the cold brew instead.

Amazing coffee in the airport ! Get a cold brew , ChemEx , or beans to go

Good service ,good single origin coffee , good people watching

The Dirty Chai is out of this world!!!!! Make the trek to this gate even if its out of your way. Worth it.

This is some of the best coffee you will find anywhere. Fantastic roast, iced coffee from toddy ... Awesome!

Had an amazing sugar free vanilla soy latte here. Just get it hot rather than cold as the iced did not have anywhere near the same flavor as the hot.

Never expected good coffee in an airport . The v60 Ethiopian I got was amazing!

I enjoyed a beautiful cappuccino . Was disappointed that my delay was shortened and had less time to linger.

The Cold Brew Colada is delicious!

Real coffee in an airport ? This is almost too good to be true. But, it's real, so enjoy it!

Amazing lattes .. Baristas are amazing... Esp Tyler squared (2 Tylers) and Michele/Michelle.

A coffee snob's paradise! Talk to these guys about their coffee and their process. They really know their stuff.

Local coffee company where the beans are locally grown in Arizona. The chai lattes are just as good as their coffee .

Great service, I was exhausted from flying all day, and the cute baristas were super friendly and personable!

Get you espresso based drinks here...they actually know how to steam milk . Completely unexpected for an airport location!

Not the fastest place to get coffee at the airport , but probably the best airport coffee anywhere.

Roast beef sandwich and a cold-brew is becoming my standard pre-flight meal.

Would choose Cartel over Starbucks any day. If you need an extra jolt, try the cold brew !

No matter where you are in the airport and you need coffee , go here. Forget that you'll pass 493 Starbucks on the way.

Single origin beans from an excellent roaster

A legit coffee shop in an airport ! Sign me up! Cold brew was wonderful.

Love the baristas for the images they make on the lattes !

Right next to gate C11

Ham and Swiss sandwich is good! Perfect for the 30 minute delay meal!!

These guys really know espresso ! Best in the valley.

Perfect cup for a layover.

For an airport cafe , it's darned good, though you're paying airport prices.

Great java and cool service. Grab a cup.

It's worth the walk even if you are leaving out of D gates

Really good coffee . Great baristas

Best thing to happen to sky harbor . Iced toddy all the way

Best coffee on the airport .

Beautiful espresso always!

Serves Seven Cups tea .

This place is amazing!!
