I have to say that this is by far my favorite coffee spot in the Valley. Granted, I haven't tried them all, but of all the ones I have tried, this place is soooooo good.
I live in Scottsdale, and yes, I do drive past at least a half dozen 'bux, a DD, and a few other small coffee shops just to go to the Biltmore to get Royal.
The baristas and broistas are always friendly, even on a Sunday morning, which also adds to the reason I keep coming back.
I can't recommend this spot enough.
