35 Best Cafes in Reno

“Let me tell you something—Lloyd doesn’t just serve food; he orchestrates an experience. From the moment you sit down, he operates with the precision and grace of a consigliere, ensuring that every request is handled with the utmost care and respect. His recommendations? Like a well-placed favor from The Godfather, Don Corleone himself—impeccable, thoughtful, and undeniably wise.

You don’t ask for good service when Lloyd is around. It simply arrives, smooth and effortless, as if it’s part of some grand plan. The way he anticipates your needs, refills your drink before you even notice it’s low, and makes sure every dish is presented perfectly—it's the kind of dedication that would make even Vito proud.

If you want a meal where you're treated like part of the Family, Lloyd’s your guy. Just remember, refusing dessert? That’s an offer you shouldn’t refuse.“

“This new business has the best owners and really good coffee. If your looking to get a fancy drink like a white mocha or a pumpkin spice fall drink, they have it too.“

“Visited the first time a couple of weeks ago when I posted the five star rating. Visited again today, and have more time to leave a comment.

Lillo Eatery is fantastic. My first visit was late in the morning, the owner (I assume) took my order and it turned out my first two bagel choices were sold out. But the staff had just completed a to-go order of avocado toast on an everything bagel in error, which turned out to be my exact order on the sold out bagel I had wanted. The owner gave it to me at no charge given they need to remake it on the correct bagel and it was my exact order. I tried to pay for it and the owner said me taking it helped not create waste, which was so kind.

Today, I went back with one of my sons. He order the shakshouka and I got the avocado toast on a Za’tar bagel. Both were delicious, and portions were so big we needed to-go boxes. We ended up making two more additional orders before leaving, an everything bagel sandwich for my other son & a 1/2 dozen bagels with cream cheese.

Lillo Eatery is definitely going to be a regular place we visit. And clearly others too. From the moment we sat down to wait for our food, there was a line of people at the counter and at one point almost every seat was filled. Food is great, people are nice, and love supporting local businesses.“

“So nice they let Washoe County do COVID shots here. Cookies, snacks, and water provided. We stayed after to have cappuccinos outside. The service was excellent. The cappuccinos were tasty. Highly recommend.“

“Great food, affordable and great service...“

“💜💜💜 great place to eat!!!!“

“It is always a great place to eat. Anytime is a good time to get a bite here. The food is local, made with love, has amazing flavors and options, as well as it is always fresh and the healthiest option around. The cafe food is sourced from local farms. The grocery store below has amazing produce, meat, grain, and refrigerated options in the area. All organic. All for a great price. Always helped by smiling and helpful staff. I come here weekly and am never disappointed. Many thanks! ??“

“Amazing!“

“I love coming here to see all the beautiful cats. not only are they an amazing place to chill out, you get to hangout with cats. every cat has a different personality and still so loving. I always recommend this place for cat lovers and to have a nice atmosphere.“

“The best food an pastries in Reno hands down. Go try any item on the menu it is cook to perfection. When you go visit say Brew sent you. Love this place and all the staff. The owner motto " Don't change what is working" the food should taste the same because of the time and effort put in to prepare each dish.“

“had a delicious latte at this place. I was pleased to find out they roast their coffee in house. it was very apparent with the fresh taste. I was also happy that the barista accommodated my special request of making it lightly sweetened. it was perfect thank you. I also enjoyed the quiet little patio that they had behind the building“

“I am part of a club meeting there monthly -the buffet we get is great and the service is top notch. My husband and I also enjoy a quick breakfast or dinner at the Cafe!.“

“Here they have wonderful coffee in a wonderful setting and they are very friendly. All the coffee drinks are made with oat milk. If you just want coffee, this will definitely work. However I think that to earn 5 stars it’s necessary for a coffee shop to offer fresh baked goods, sandwiches, salads, or something you can make a small meal out of“

“This is a family owned restaurant. The service is excellent. The food is even better. There is a great selection of coffee beans to purchase. I'm definitely making this a regular place“

“All of the dishes are great taste and serves are great too. You can have perfect enjoyment and relaxing for sure here.Additionally, Sunday brunch time is the really best time. You can listen magnificent music here. You can listen perfect SUMIE style music for sure. I do not need to explain. Just come!!!!! You will recognize it.“

“wish we could have enjoyed the food we paid for. but atleast the money goes to a good cause“

“I nice clean little shop that serves great drinks. Interesting business design that creates combo meals of drinks that aren't complete garbage for you. Had a Hulk Tea and a Caramel Banana protien shake, surprisingly they kept me satisted from lunch time until I ate my preworkout snack around 5pm. Much better alternative to fast food options that are in town. Ready to go back.“

“I can see why Arnie's is one of the highest rated for breakfast. First, friendly service and immediate seating.
The menu gives you a lot of choices.
Food portions are GINORMOUS! I opted for a "side" of the Banana Nutella Crepes.“

“Finally! Can eat inside Sams for the first time in about a year! But they need to do a better job of traffic control at the gas pumps. It’s supposed to be one way flow but lately it seems like a smash up derby! Costco does not allow this and neither should Sams“

“This place is very cozy. I enjoyed the wide selection of pastries which were all delicious. I really the chocolate muffin. Their pizza slides are large too. I liked that it was open 24 hours so I could get food at a reasonable price all day. The staff are super friendly too. Great place to work and grab a bite“

“This place has great concept, The ambiance is great and the food and drinks are BOMB!!!!!?? We ordered the porcini soup, the pea salad, the ravioli and flatbread pizza to share and every single item was fantastic. The place is small but perfect to hang out with friends and have a great time with great food and a good variety of drinks. Totally recommend!“

“We haven't been here for a few months but glad we came here today. Place is very clean. The staff were great! Special shout out to Shelly who gave 5 star service. We haven't seen this caliber of service in a very long time. The food was really good. We had the dinner size chicken fried steak, fish and chips, cheese pizza and their soup of the day (meatball soup-my daughter gave the soup 2 thumbs up). The fish was great-thin batter and tons of fish. Fries are crispy on the outside and soft in the middle.The pizza had lots of cheese. The soup had lots of meatballs. My husband really enjoyed the chicken fried steak. Just a heads up the Cafe is short staffed, but the staff worked their butts off to provide a great dinner experience. We will definitely be back.“

“Amazing place, wonderful service and our server kay was really amazing. There cheesy Bruschetta🤤 my terrific turkey pesto 🤤❤️❤️“

“Holy cannoli! This place is phenomenal. Food was so good it literally made me tear up. I will shout from the roof tops for everyone to come here.“

“Excellent coffee, very good service, prompt. Pretty good selection of fresh baked goods, a great buzz in the place, with people meeting and chatting. Great art on the walls, and clearly has free Wi-Fi. Definitely would come back.“

“They are family- and yes, their coffee warms my soul.“

“My first time here at this establishment, the server/service was very courteous, and the food was delicious,especially white bean chilli soup.“

“Had an excellent experience there the manager is excellent. Her name is Zareen. Very smart and intelligent very clean. Not like other places with a dirty employees excellent hamburgers the best I’ve eaten your restaurant is spotless and a lovely employee. He’s very nice. His name is Jacob very knowledgeable man“

“This place boasts a fantastic atmosphere and some of the friendliest staff around. The seating is cozy and limited, but that's all part of the charm—it ensures that customers come in, savor their coffee, and enjoy the moment without turning it into a makeshift office. It's a spot where conversations flow and the coffee experience truly shines!“

“I was so impressed with the service that I got with my server!!!!!!! My order was “mid-heard” and I am the type of person who just lets things go. However, the server refused, and gave me some veggies to go, because that’s what I really wanted and needed for my health! She is amazing, and so is your establishment! Thank you for a GREAT EXPERIENCE, a great lunch, and a lot of laughs! You all rock!“

“good food great people always enjoy coming hear“

“Excellent breakfast. Chorizo, beans and rice were on point. Pancakes and french toast, yummy 😋 You MUST try the Jimmysopitas- holy goodness batman! 10 out of 10 recommend!“

“All I can do is rave about our server, Tim. He was attentive without being overbearing; my husband ordered our appetizer while I was in the restroom, and it was out less than 3 minutes after I was back. Tim had our sodas replaced before we could even ask, was quick to answer any questions, and seemed to read our mind on when we were ready for the cheque. The food was as delicious as always, but Tim made our visit even more memorable.“

“It is my husband birthday, so we spent the weekend in Reno, Nevada. This was the perfect place to have coffee and dessert and time of day. I wanted to get a cake for my husband birthday. I could not pick just one. So, I picked chocolate cover strawberries, carrot cake, and cheesecake. The dessert were perfect soft and moist, Thanks girls.“
