I have been visiting Payson, AZ to hike and camp for a decade and didn’t know these coffee shops in Payson existed until this past year. It shouldn’t be like that!

why you should visit

Common Grounds Coffee House in Payson, AZ prides themselves in having locally roasted coffee and using as many local ingredients as possible. They source local salts, produce, etc and make their own syrups. Homemade syrup ALWAYS is better. I also adore their coffee mug outside. Both the outside and inside space are cozy and welcoming! This is absolutely one of the best coffee shops in Payson.

menu items

Coffee wise, I got the georgia latte- brown sugar cinnamon with a caramel drizzle. So good. They also have a local bee latte with honey and local lavender from the Pine Creek Lavender Farm nearby. They also have teas, matcha, smoothies, and lavender lemonade. For food, they do bagels and local pastries.

You heard that right- the SHROOM ROOM. This is one of the coolest coffee shops in Payson. Their goal is to mainstream superfood mushrooms. They source mushrooms from around the world (the legal kind) to add to your drinks and benefit your health. They also are a gift shop- you can find local goodies and lots of mushroom-themed decor.

Of course, you can add mushrooms to anything. They have mushroom coffees, espresso, lattes, and teas with unique names and ingredients. I love their unique flavor options. They do have food as well- toasts, waffles, and bagels.

why you should visit

Up next on the list of coffee shops in Payson is Noley’s. Like their name says, they have Books, Arts, and Whatnot, haha. They really do!! I was so excited when someone told me about this coffee shop because I drove past it so many times not knowing about it. It’s between an Autozone and an Urgent Care- LOL. So you walk in and they have isles and isles of books, local art for sale, FRESH PRODUCE, a whole coffee & drink bar in the back, and so many gathering spaces. They do live music and events often. If I lived in Payson, I’d be here all the time.

menu items

From their produce stand (fridge, too), you can get local produce, drinks, milk, eggs, cheese, etc. I love it. At the bar, they have pastries that all looked delicious. Their specialty coffees include the Desert Heat Cold Brew which is chocolate, cinnamon, and chili powder, topped with a vanilla cold foam. They also have a Lavender Hive Latte with local honey. They also have their own specialty cocktails, and energy drinks! So fun!
