Coffee Box

Right in the heart of historic downtown, CoffeeBox is one of those perfectly random finds that ends up being exactly what you needed. Built from two stacked shipping containers, the bottom level is your cozy order window with all the hipstery charm, and the top level opens up to a chill rooftop-style patio overlooking downtown. It’s the kind of place where you can sip a matcha latte (mine was so good), snack on avocado toast or a bagel, and just vibe while the city wakes up. They open early—6:30 a.m.!—and stay open late, serving not just coffee but agua frescas and other fun twists. Great pricing, good energy, and overall just a great post-workout pit stop.

You order at a downstairs window and then carry your drink upstairs, where there is indoor and open seating with a street view. A large coffee costs $5 and is prepared using a dripper, not an espresso americano. Despite this, the coffee tastes commercial and closer to gas station coffee than a specialty cafe. Prices are not displayed anywhere, so you have to ask before ordering.

I love Coffee Box! Everyone should try their matcha! It's definitely my favorite drink on their menu, although I definitely miss all their seasonal holiday drinks. It's a great local business that I hope continues to do well! It has helped me get to know El Paso better since I moved here! Everyone should support local businesses like this incredible coffee shop!

Great costumer servuce, patient and helpfulk whilenordering. Got a green wrap, 7/10, I also ordered a Mazapan protein latte, it was good but I wish they had more flavour options.

Coffee box located in Downtown El Paso, Texas. Order outside, no siting outside but they have a loft area upstairs to sit and enjoy your coffee while surfing the web on your phone or computer. We only ordered drinks. Cute place.

The food and coffee was great! We ordered the horchata iced latte and a vanilla latte as well as the green wrap. Totally recommend! We had to wait a little for our order but completely worth the wait!

This is my third time coming and if that doesn’t tell you something I don’t know what will. Drinks are really good and I love the environment they have created. Service was eager to serve and attentive. I downloaded the app and will certainly be back.

If you're looking for a cozy coffee and tea joint that will give you a unique and inviting experience, look no further than Coffee Box. This quaint coffee spot is located right in the heart of downtown, and you won't miss it because of its bright orange trailer that pops out among the other buildings. You can order at the end of the trailer that's opposite the park, and take your drink to go, or if you have time, you can hang out and enjoy their well-designed indoor or outdoor space. The indoor space is particularly inviting, with a comfortable and relaxing atmosphere that makes it easy to unwind. The trailer is expertly crafted and designed to provide a cozy and comfortable environment that invites you to stay awhile. The outdoor seating area is also well laid out and provides a lovely ambiance, making it perfect for catching up with friends, working on your laptop or simply enjoying some quiet time on your own. In terms of drinks and pastries, Coffee Box offers an extensive selection of coffee, tea and other beverages, as well as a variety of delicious pastries that are baked fresh every day. Their menu is carefully curated, and the quality of their ingredients is evident in every sip and bite.

While not the greatest little find, it sure hit the spot in the am. We walked over from a nearby hotel for our am fix. The sandwiches were good, as was the coffee. The muffin was nothing special. The upstairs space was small, but not that busy when we stopped by. Overall a decent spot in the area and a much better option over the hotel breakfast.

This place is a must see for being quirky and different. They created us immediately and provided recommendations based upon what we thought we like. We didn't have to wait long because service was super quick. To top it off the drinks were delicious and affordable. If we had more time while we were in town, I definitely would've wanted to try the food, but we didn't get a chance to.

Love the concept with the shipping containers. Walk up to the counter outside to order, then head upstairs for both indoor and outdoor seating. The staff was super nice and the coffee came out quick. Will definitely return to try their other iced coffees!

I think they forgot to blend in a Mazapan in my Mazapan frappe--it tastes like a watered down coffee slush. $8 for this (medium plus 20% tip) and I'm sad. The young lady at the counter was super sweet, so that's nice (it's El Paso, we're all nice :) Maybe I'll come back. I mean, this is my 3rd Mazapan frappe here and today, when I needed it most (long day and it's not even noon), I was so bummed :-(

Cool spot. A converted storage crate into a coffee shop. Seating upstairs. Nice and quiet. Tip: bathroom in the park 5 minutes away Parking was paid street parking or lot. Don't pay for the lot... it's more expensive than the coffee you're going to get

LOVE this location to study. This place always helped me feel calm and motivated to work. I love all the drinks they have, definitely one of the best coffee shops in EP because they have the perfect mixture of coffee and sweetness. They do have pretty high prices, but it's worth it.

The coffee is trash. The service is good and the ambiance is good but there coffee is horrible

We wanted tot ru this new place to me in downtown and the guy we asked questions about the coffee was very rude and uninformative then when we received our coffee not only was it terrible but I ended up having to buy some chocolate milk down the road to at least be able to drink it. We didn't want to go back as they were already rude and made us feel uncomfortable.

They have so many sugar free options which I love and I haven't seen no one post what they have so this is for my sugar free peoples.

Love this shop! I visit every time I come to El Paso. Located across the Plaza from the Plaza hotel in cute shipping containers

Cool environment! Mainly went because the menu looked great and the it's a storage container! I loved that you could either choose to grab and go or sit upstairs and relax. Bagel sandwich was good but nothing spectacular. Horchata iced coffee was delish!

OK first and foremost, if you're confused about parking, don't worry. This shop is located in a pay parking lot, but there's special reserved spots for this shop so if you're just grabbing something to go, technically you don't need to pay anything since the service is quick. I spent a while circling the block for street parking since I didn't realize this. XLarge Mazapan Frappe ($6.25 for 24 fl oz)- Mazapán is a popular Mexican candy made of peanuts and powdered sugar, and is a pretty unique flavor. I got this with almond milk to accentuate the nutty flavor. I thought this was delicious. I'll admit, this is only the second shop where I've gotten this flavor, but I thought that the candy flavor came out well in this drink. You take a sip and the peanut flavor comes through, followed by the coffee flavor after. It works well together. There are some unblended chunks of candy in this, which I thought was fine, but if you want a uniform drink I guess you could ask for it to be double blended. I would get this again! There's also a seating area on the second floor, if you want to gather with friends to enjoy food and drinks together.

My friends and I are visiting EP and we wanted some coffee this afternoon. My friend ordered an horchata latte, but received a drink with no coffee in it at all...and when we tried to get it fixed, one of the ladies kept trying to tell us that she didn't order a drink with coffee in it (which she had). So she paid AGAIN only for them to give her the wrong drink, AGAIN. We were in a hurry - otherwise I would have stayed to ask for a refund for both drinks. They were very busy and backed up so we were trying to be understanding, and my friend is very patient. But this was not a good experience. I would recommend you find somewhere else to buy coffee

The building itself is cute. I am not impressed by the service. And I feel like the products are over priced for what they are physically given.

Super cool coffee shop located in downtown El Paso. You order downstairs at the window and then there is indoor and outdoor seating upstairs to enjoy your purchase. I ordered a hot Jasmine Green Tea and it was as expected. I enjoyed the music playing over the speakers and the ambiance of the upstairs area. This was a great place to read before my flight. I would gladly come back here if I find myself in El Paso again.

This is a great little spot. Easy to walk to right off the bus transfer station and Park. The lattes were really good and we were able to sit on the roof top deck to enjoy our drinks. The guys working there were friendly and even offered a little advice when asking for a big breakfast place. (He said L&J Cafe)

We found out the top floor was locked after we had bought drinks and snacks. The look of horror on our faces when we found the upstairs space locked and unavailable could not be recreated in this lifetime. We were left with mid tasting drinks and no where to sit down. Truly disappointed in this place and don't know how much longer it can stay in business with fake promises such as this one

Walking around downtown El Paso Texas looking for coffee and found this cute coffee shop. This coffee shop is in old shipping containers. So you walk up to the window place you order pay and wait for them to call out your name for your ready order. The people here are nice and patient and answered our questions. They also take Apple Pay here. The drinks were nice and hot and better price then that other place with a "star" in their name. If in downtown El Paso try this place. Get the coffee to go, walk enjoy your day no place to sit here but it is across the street from a park with several sitting areas.

This café is uniquely cool with a distinct vibe--almost tubular, dude (but rectangular)! Unfortunately, customers have to pay for parking.

Got a blue raspberry drink. Couldn't even drink 1/4th of it. Taste like they dumped sour patch kids and the sour powder in it. So gross. How disappointing especially after walking in the sun and wanting a refreshing drink

Stopped here on an early Sunday morning and have been thinking about it since. Placing an order was easy and my iced coffee came out fasts I sat on the small patio upstairs and took in Downtown El Paso. The place is really cool as it seems to be made out of an old shipping container which gave it great vibes as they repurposed something and brought it back to life!

skip the crappy hotel coffee and head over to the Coffee Box! coffee beats Starbucks any day and the customer service is excellent. better than any chain brand, this spot is built out of shipping containers with an upstairs seating area.

Excellent iced tea and pina colada smoothie. This is a great spot and convenient at the plaza. Customer service is on top and quick. Highly recommend!

Outside ordering and seating so bring a sweater if you plan to come here in the winter months. The Horchata Latte has two shots of espresso and tastes amazing. I'd describe it as a creamier and sweeter version of an horchata, I highly recommend it. I don't think they make the macaroons themselves as they pulled them out of a plastic container, but for $1.75 they are definitely worth it.

Was in El Paso for the weekend and tried this coffee shop out. This drink does not take effect until the next day. Great way for detoxing

Everything there is super and the guy in the register is so nice. I recommend the Taro is my favorite!

The patio upstairs is so lovely! The horchata latte was delicious. All of the staff was helpful and knowledgeable.

The iced chai was delicious! My fiance got the charcoal latte and said it was good but a little sweet for him.

One of my favorite things to do when visiting family is going to get me a Charcoal Latte

I needed to feed my hungry 20-yr old daughter early in the morning on past Sunday (Jan 3, 2021) while we were browsing the streets in this far west city in TX. I used to live in TX (Dallas) back in mid to late 90's but I had never had a chance to visit El Paso so the last Sunday was the very opportunity for me to visit it at last!! I really enjoyed seeing the quiet downtown El Paso where we located this intriguing looking coffee shop only a few hundred yards from our parked car. Perfect place I thought. We didn't need any coffee; just a little bite to eat. My daughter picked an onion bagel with cream cheese. She ended up getting an everything bagel instead; oh well, it's a little mistake so we weren't that mad. She wished though that the cream cheese had a larger portion as it was barely enough to cover both sides of the bagel. But overall , this was an decent experience. Like I stated earlier the coffee shop's building is very unique and intriguing. I was compelled to take a picture of it which I will upload along with this review. We received decent service too! I heard that this city is struggling a bit. I really hope that the businesses in general in El Paso get through this crazy times we are living. We hope to visit this lonely city in the near future.

El Paso is my favorite large city in Texas. Yes, downtown is visibly struggling but the walkable and compact streets are a lush architectural joy. Coffee Box sits right in the middle of it all. This brightly colored shipping container assemblage with a vibrant image of Frida Kahlo on one side is the perfect morning stop before wandering around. [Please be a hero: wear a face mask and practice social distancing when you're here. Protect yourself and those serving you.]

Drinks and flavor selection are good, just too much ice for my liking. Good variety and prices to reflect

Great coffee and a fun place to enjoy it! Ordering at the window took a few minutes but our coffee was ready quickly. The coffee was great! And the service was friendly. The best part is the fun design of the indoor/outdoor patio upstairs. Great place to enjoy the morning. Would have loved more food options and possibly another window for pick up.

What happened to you coffee box!? I was in El Paso years ago when they opened and love the idea of a repurpose shipping container thingie turned into a coffee shop. The inside was cute and what I got then was good, but then fast forward to October 2021... excitement of going back quickly turned into pure disappointment. The menu looked sooooo good...taro oatmilk latte...pistachio latte...I mean yummmm! I ordered the pistachio decaf latte and my husband got a Blueberry muffin. The pistachio latte was purely bad...I felt like something was missing but no taste or hint of pistachio. Blueberry muffin was like eating pure sugar. I couldn't eat it and my 14 month old who eats everything even spit it out. I guess we should have seen it coming when other people ahead of us were complaining about their drinks. Even one guy came back to tell them how bad It was and that they will end up closing if they don't get it together. For this visit really should have been 1 star but gave a 2 because my very first experience was good. It was a sad, sad morning.

Cute lil coffee place! I went every day I was in El Paso because it's the best coffee I found. The container itself looks so much like something out of Portland, which I just loved. The ladies making the coffee were all sweet. There's not too much room to sit, but for a coffee on the go it works. (Went to the little park close by to sit in instead.) I personally like stronger coffee, but, like I said, it was the best I found in El Paso.

Such nice staff! I got the pistachio latte, and it was super yummy. Great vibes inside and outside!

- Tried their Mazapan Large iced latte And pistachio large latte warm. - Their mazapan drink had good flavor however towards the end very chalky consistency. Order is delivered in a timely manner. - Their pistachio latte had decent taste but the flavor did feel artificial. - Overall, liked the set up and would like to try their desserts as well.

New found gem. This place is in a perfect part of downtown. The ambiance is comfortable. I stopped by here on my morning run downtown and am going to make it part of my routine. The staff was nice and very helpful ordering.

Wanted some good coffee while I was in town so made the short walk from my hotel to the Coffee Box and was not disappointed. I ordered the iced horchata latte based on its label as a "favorite." It was delicious, a little sweeter than I usually take my coffee, but given it was horchata it's completely understandable and warmly welcomed. The coffee also gave me a good kick, which is key to the perfect rating. I also got an onion bagel with cream cheese. Perfectly toasted. A classic, satisfying breakfast. Lastly the atmosphere. The coffee box is made out of shipping containers painted full of murals. You order your food and drinks downstairs, then you can take it upstairs to their small but cozy dining area. Great place to enjoy breakfast and get some work done.

I have nothing bad to say about this place. The coffee was ok. The service was decent but really slow, I get it, it's hard to find help nowadays. The ambiance is really cool. It's a super neat design made from old cargo containers and that's cool! But the real truth is, this place just isn't serious about their coffee production. They make sweet drinks most people will like but coffee aficionados, the diehard coffee freaks who will make an annual pilgrimage to Starbucks Roastery in Seattle will want to pass this place up.

I was just passing through El Paso on the way to the airport and saw that this place has creative drinks and good ratings- my family and I got the pistachio latte, charcoal smoothie, and mocha latte (all iced size medium). Personally, I thought it was all a bit pricey (over $15), but the flavors were great. The mocha tasted more like chocolate than coffee, but overall still delicious. The environment was so cute and I'm still glad I visited!

Their food and coffee are good but their customer service and employees are horrible I do like their food but their service keeps me away from them. I will get text messages for a free item or 15% my order and they never know how to do it they say it doesn't come up on their system. I've place my order online hoping it will be ready by the time it tells me and I get there and they haven't even started my order I would understand if it was busy but there was no other customers just the employees talking. It's disappointing because I've tried so many times and yes their food and drinks are great but not their staff.

We are boba lovers so when we saw that this place sells boba in El Paso, we just had to try it. Unfortunately they fell short. Everything was way too sweet. The boba was not a real tapioca boba but they were jelly boba. Not recommended at all.

Roasted: chilly morning in El Paso so it was a perfect morning for coffee. Found coffee box as it had a lot of positive reviews. I love the concept of this place. A coffee shop built out of 2 shipping containers. Super unique. You can order your coffee downstairs and upstairs is both indoor and outdoor seating. Staff was friendly. Latte was tasty but was way too foamy - it was more like a cappuccino. Temperature and taste were good and no latte art at all. For a decent cup of coffee, check this place out. Unroasted: great location for this coffee shop. I love the concept of repurposing shipping containers. The staff was friendly and they had a variety of flavors including sugar free. Order the usual and my latte had lots of foam but once you got to the expresso shot it was on point. I recommend to come by check this building out and take a walk at the nearby

I want one where I live. I wouldn't recommend hanging out inside -- it's interesting to see how a shipping container was modified but it's a shipping container & the poor AC can't fight this El Paso sun -- oppressively hot. But wow definitely stop and get a drink!!! I'm typically a Starbucks snob but I would easily prefer these guys. Very cool concept too

Such a unique place! Got a mocha Frappuccino with oat milk. Yum! Definitely recommend! P.S. *LOVE* that they have a non-dairy option!!!

We passed by downtown El Paso and was attracted by this place! So creative. The coffee, however, was just okay. But it is a good place to take some photos and chill.

Girls at the register were so nice as it being my first time they were patient with me there horchata oat milk latte was AMAZING definitely recommend
