50 Best Coffee Shops in Reno

“We got the Burrito SUPER and SMOTHERED! Amazing. This Avocado toast was simple perfect!“

“Every time I visit my daughter I always come to Waldens love their food, service and their friendly, cozy environment , highly recommended Thank you“

“Literally the best Cubano coffee I have ever had. And that’s coming from a gal that grew up in Florida, where Cuban restaurants are everywhere. 10/10“

“This place is definitely a vibe. Relaxing, chill atmosphere, and amazing service. You MUST try their pumpkin latte made with real pumpkin purée. Mom loved their pine nut latte (I had to steal a sip). The guys loved the orange blossom latte. Oh and don’t forget to grab an Auntie’s loaf of banana bread it tastes just like home. 💙“

“Cute place, wonderful staff, they let us try their house blend delicious! Come and check it out and help small businesses thrive!!“

“We discovered this little coffee shop while spending a week on vacation in Reno. The flavored lattes are coffee forward, with just a hint of sweetness and flavoring. Enough to intrigue but not to cover up the coffee. I tried lavender, hazelnut,cans raspberry and was never disappointed. My husband went for the Mexican hot chocolate and pronounced it delicious.“

“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!“

“I cannot recommend this place enough! I’ve been to just about every coffee shop in Reno/sparks and this is the best place. After living in both Italy and Spain throughout college, coffee back home wasn’t quite cutting it. But HCC never misses! Their sugar and spice latte is the BEST! The owners are so friendly and the baristas are excited to see us come in each weekend. I bring all my friends here and they have loved it too. There’s plenty of seating, good music and it’s decorated nicely. Really the best way to sum it up is that the owners know what small business in Reno is all about, no matter how big this city is getting. Genuine, hard working, kind and personable owners. We love HCC!“

“Came in for coffee and may have just had the best coffee of my life. Lavender/Honey/Oat pour over by Sarah! Absolutely my new favorite coffee place in Reno.“

“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.“

“Greet you by name, such great staff and the food quality is always on point.“

“Wonderful coffee place! Love going here with my father-in-law after our walks by the river.“

“We were visiting Reno for a week and this became one of our favorite local places. The young women that work there have such kind, positive energy. The tea was outstanding. My son and I stopped by 4 of the 7 days we were in town.“

“One of the best coffees I’ve ever had! I got the sticky bun iced latte. Great price and HUGE coffees. I was unsure of what I wanted and I didn’t feel rushed at all while deciding. I will be back. I can’t wait to try more!“

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

“Best coffee In Reno! Would like for them to offer a 16oz drip cup.“

“Wonderful coffee in a serene outdoor space (4/5 Green Stars for social and environmental impact) I almost missed the Coffeebar Roastery but I’m glad I doubled back to find it. It’s really on the lane with no name that runs between Haskell and S. Virginia – if you’re walking along Haskell there's a space where 1030 should be and Coffeebar is behind that plot. There’s lots of seating outside their red-brick building, including several small tables with lovely mosaic tiles, a large table for 6, and a sofa under a canopy. This seating area, which is well secluded from traffic, combined with Coffeebar’s great music selection make this a very chill spot to forget your Covid woes. And their coffee is great too! The friendly Barista introduced me to a few coffees – both natural processed (the entire coffee cherry is dried before the bean is separated from the pulp) which saves on water and often makes the coffee more fruity and delicious. I decided to risk over-caffeinating and have both of them: the Costa Rica Finca Lucerito as a Gibraltar and the Ethiopian Naia Bombe as a pour-over. This was my first ever Gibraltar – made with Oatly oat milk and a sprinkle of sugar on top – and it was so delicious! The Ethiopian coffee was so lacking in bitterness that I was able to drink it without milk or sugar (which is rare for me). They also do flights – either different beans in the same format (e.g., espresso) or the same beans in multiple formats (Gibraltar and espresso) so it’s a good spot for a coffee education. Prices were reasonable considering the high quality – it was $7 total for the Gibraltar and the pour-over. I’m also giving Coffeebar 4/5 Green Stars for social and environmental impact for the following reasons: • Coffeebar have a direct trade relationship with coffee farmers. The benefits of this vary by coffee farm – it may be a better price for the farmer and/or more sustainable farming practices. • For example, the Costa Rica Finca Lucerito comes through collaboration with Sustainable Management Services (SMS) in Costa Rica. SMS do agricultural research in Central America to increase sustainability (e.g., improved fertilization techniques and coffee varieties that are more resistant to disease). • Having said that, Coffeebar don’t provide a lot of detail, compared to some other roasters (e.g., Temple Coffee in Davis strives for transparency in actual prices paid to farmers). Even on the blog posts dedicated to each coffee variety, there’s often a lack of useful information. For example, their Thai coffee is grown in Doi Inthanon National Park but there’s no discussion on the environmental impact of the farm (e.g., shade cover, which is often lacking in Asian coffee farms). There’s a decent blog post by David Wilson on why Coffeebar wants to move beyond coffee that’s certified (e.g., organic) but in order to do that they need to raise the bar on their communication – seriously! Otherwise, how do we tell them apart from roasters that are only paying lip-service to their social and environmental impact? • I like that they provided glasses and mugs for having coffee in-house when so many have abandoned them (for no good reason) during lockdown. • For disposable cups, Coffeebar are partnering with reCUP which make cups that are designed to be recyclable. The cups are generally not compostable as they still contain a plastic liner (just less plastic than normal). • There’s a 75 cent charge for alternative milk listed on the menu – that’s a fairly steep penalty for choosing plant-based milk. Having said that, I wasn’t charged extra for having Oatly in my Gibraltar :) • Their coffee-bean packages are pretty (and award-winning) but it’s a pity they’re not compostable (e.g., like Counter Culture Coffee) • On their website you can find info on their suppliers for food ingredients (listed under Partners) including some familiar good names like Central Milling organic flour and Petaluma Creamery grass-fed butter.“

“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!“

“Please don’t come here. It’s my favorite coffee shop and everything is excellent. Have you considered Starbucks up the street? 🤪“

“We love this place! Every Thursday and Sunday morning we go there for a great coffee and chess. They have people dropping in for chess both days and it’s a welcoming, casual experience- we prefer to bring our own board and play each other, but the more skilled chess players are super nice and would happily play us if we had the courage lol. Just a really great ritual and third place in a time where both have widely disappeared. Skip the video games, come out to the Jesse instead!“

“Great service. Excellent crepe batter… nice and lite. A service person arrived before us and that staff came out behind the counter to get us settled; very polite! Very positive vibe. We’ll be back!“

“My wife and I we're given a gift of making and distilling our own special gin from our daughter. We went in on yesterday, Sunday and met Marin. She is the most amazing historian, biologist, and chemical wizard when it comes to gin ! We had the most fun, and departed with a pair of bottles of individual gin concoctions under Marin's watchful eye. (We also purchases gin candles, cinnamon bitters, and Ferino's delicious house. What a great day. Thank you Marin, for the education, entertainment and memories. We'll be back!“

“My boyfriend would never in his life order an almond milk latte. But our barista asked if almond milk was okay as the default. He hesitantly responded that was fine… I knew at that moment that I’d be drinking his latte. Hah!

Boy I was wrong.. my boyfriend LOVED HIS DRINK and kept insisting I try it (despite being full from breakfast). He’s not wrong!! This is one of the best lattes we’ve had in awhile. Great quality and well made! Still can’t believe my boyfriend actually likes it. Mind blown so I guess that’s a testament of how good this place is. So good!“
