Handcrafted coffee
by day. Seasonal cocktails
by night.

A neighborhood café and bar on East Riverview Drive — where every cup is poured with care and every glass is mixed with intention.

Locally Sourced

Our beans come from specialty roasters in the Southwest, and our ingredients are drawn from Arizona farms and purveyors whenever the season allows.

Crafted Daily

From pour-overs to espresso drinks, every coffee is made to order. Our bartenders build seasonal cocktail menus that change with the rhythm of the year.

Community First

Barlows has been a gathering place for Phoenix's East Valley since 2013 — a spot for morning conversations, date nights, and everything in between.

Our Story

A place that feels like home — from the first sip to the last call.

Barlows opened its doors in 2013 on East Riverview Drive with a simple conviction: that a great café and a great bar don't have to be separate experiences. Mornings begin with the hiss of an espresso machine and the quiet ritual of pour-over coffee. Evenings bring the clink of glassware, the rustle of cocktail menus, and a kitchen that stays open late.

Over the years, we've grown into a neighborhood staple — not because we chase trends, but because we show up every day and do the basics well. Fresh ingredients. Thoughtful recipes. Hospitality that feels genuine, not performed.

"The kind of place you walk into and immediately relax. Coffee's excellent, the cocktails are creative, and the people here make you feel welcome."

— Phoenix Magazine

What our guests say

I've been coming to Barlows for years — it's my go-to for a quiet morning coffee and now my favorite spot for a weekend cocktail. The consistency is remarkable.

The Desert Old Fashioned is unlike anything I've had in the city. You can tell the bartenders actually care about what they're making. Such a welcoming space.

— Phoenix Magazine Review

We hosted a small gathering here and the team was incredibly accommodating. Food was fresh, drinks were spot-on, and the atmosphere was perfect. Will be back.
