Gato Coffee Reviews
The only time my wife and I assumed we had Covid was when we had resorted to drinking lesser coffee and thought our tastebuds had been compromised.

Gato Coffee is a small coffee stand, described as a little trailer, in Salida. Reviewers consistently call it the best coffee in town, with praise for its high-quality beans, balanced and smooth espresso, and delicious, carefully made drinks like lattes, mochas, dirty chais, and black drip coffee. Oat milk is available. The food receives high marks, with breakfast burritos called the stuff of legend and specific mentions of a bacon burrito, pastries, chocolate chip bread, and cinnamon bread. A smoky hot sauce is recommended with the burritos.
The service is repeatedly noted as friendly, kind, welcoming, and passionate, with staff described as true artisans. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming with great outdoor seating, umbrellas, and a pup-friendly policy including a fresh water bowl. The place is considered a one-of-a-kind spot and a great local business, with customers stating they will definitely return. Some feedback notes the space can get warm from the equipment. Overall, reviewers feel Salida is lucky to have Gato Coffee and highly recommend it.
