What a wonderful hidden treasure! We stopped for breakfast on our way to the Amtrak on March 20, and it was wonderful! We were greeted by a very friendly and welcoming young lady who took the time to explain all they offered on the menu. She made me an amazing vanilla latte-way better than Starbucks! The stuffed French Toast was amazing! Syrup was provided, but not needed. The scrambled eggs were also done very well and served by whom I assume was the chef. My husband had the shirred eggs, which he described as "Perfect and yummy. A perfect portion of bread and eggs." And the ambience so fun and unique! It was fun to walk around to look at all the art as we waited for our food and as we ate. They have paint parties Wednesday-Sundays. I wish I had known that before so we could have participated! I got a chicken salad sandwich on a croissant to go to eat on the train back to California (I haven't eaten that yet, but I'm sure it will be good!) I don't see myself returning to Reno, but if I ever do, I will definitely go back there and add Paint Night to the itinerary!! read more

Crafted Palette is such a delightful spot! I'd been curious about the cafe/art venue for a while before visiting and decided to meet a friend for coffee and breakfast. We met at Crafted Palette on a wintry Sunday morning. The place was empty and we were the only patrons for the duration of our meal, with the exception of someone picking up a to-go order. They have a surprisingly extensive menu; think flavored croissants, breakfast plates, sandwiches, salads, etc. and a small but varied coffee and drink menu. I ordered the shirred eggs with a side of bacon and a hot chai latte. I really enjoyed the shirred eggs. With the toast, it was a large portion and well worth the price. The bacon was a tad overcooked for my liking. The chai latte was also delicious: creamy, sweet and another large serving. The service was great and the interior was nice and welcoming with art all over the place. I'm excited to return for breakfast or lunch, especially as someone who works downtown! I would also love to go back for dinner, happy hour or a class after seeing their appetizers. Crafted Palette surprised me! I can't wait to return to this Reno gem! read more

Crafted Palette - Shirred Eggs with a side of bacon - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Reno, Nevada

I am a huge researcher before I will go somewhere to eat, so I was a little hesitant seeing the concerns about the paper plates, over done bacon blah blah blah. They have obviously addressed those by now having dishes for there plates and silverware for the utensils. So that was taken care of. Now for the food. Excellent all around!! The latte and hot cocoa were so creamy. They do have a couple sugar free options for syrup. Taste is on point. The bacon...Yummo is all I can say! The hashbrowns were crispy and delicious... My husband said his eggs were perfect. Runny but not slimy. French toast was great too. Super friendly staff. Very attentive. Clean n eclectic atmosphere. 10 thumbs up!!!! read more

I've been here before for their Paint and Sip classes and on Wine Walks, but it was my first time coming here specifically to eat. I was pleasantly surprised at the extent of the menu. So many options, both hot and cold. I got a butterscotch latte and the Crafted Croissant, which was nice and flakey, stuffed with ham and cheese and topped off with a delicious creamy sauce. The vibe is really chill, with cool "coffee shop" music in the background and lots of original artwork on the walls. The staff was friendly. I just moved down the street and this will definitely be a regular go-to for me now. read more

Amazing waffles and service it a nice place to grab food and a coffee with a relaxing atmosphere

Found this place whilst staying downtown and looking for a cozy spot for coffee. Crafted Palette was the perfect spot. Their staff are so sweet and welcoming, and the croissant was perfection! They have a lot of local art and looks like they host painting classes. Would 1000% recommend coming in if you are in the area. An oasis in downtown Reno on a cold morning. read more

After not getting to do one last year, I was determined to do a paint and sip for my birthday activities this year. Ironically we chose this location based on the time, then were called a day or two prior to move the time- but thankfully it worked out. We were actually the only ones in the class for this day, which was honestly more fun for us as we felt more relaxed and less pressure. Our instructor was funny, kind, and although she made mistakes she taught us how to overcome and fix it. She gave us nice breaks to catch up and took our photo together at the end. My boyfriend was nervous for this class in particular because the painting style seemed difficult, but our paintings turned out fabulous. We couldn't believe that's actually what we painted- we were so proud. Overall an extremely fun time with great memories. read more

Had a great time at a private painting class here! The food that we had was delicious and the artist we had worked with was a joy. She took care of us very well and gave us several tips on our painting while giving us the artistic freedom that allows everyone to uniquely express themselves. Everything started and ended on time, which was really great and I felt very respected with my time that way. Thank you so much! read more

Always our go-to breakfast near Riverwalk. Soothing atmosphere, great for work or sipping a coffee and looking at the art. If you like creative takes on empanadas, which we do, we always get at least The Beef Wellington (A plus) and usually one of the ones with sun dried tomatoes. read more

This was my first time here for a class. I've always stopped by here during a wine walk or for a quick bite. The class seemed a bit disorganized. The class was at 7, but doors didn't even open until 7. So we didn't actually start painting until about 730pm. If you've done a paint class before, you know how it goes. We were a bit disappointed that we were not given more direction. We know that artistic freedom is needed, but we felt at some points we were falling behind or left out. The drinks were good and so were the snacks. Maybe I'll need to try another class in the future read more

I came here a few years ago for one of the wine and paint events which was excellent! We had such a great time and loved our instructor. He was a wonderful teacher, fun to talk with, and even played the saxophone for us as we painted (he was from NOLA)! We had some of their pies while here that time and I remember how amazing they were. I've been meaning to come back for more of the pies but am not in this part of downtown very often. Finally made it back recently and the pies were as good as I remember! They do have a lot of other menu items but I especially enjoy their pies. I got a savory buffalo chicken pie, my friend got a savory breakfast pie, and we split a sweet lemon pie for dessert. All the flavors were delicious! Slightly crisp crust on the outside but soft and stuffed full on the inside. They are a good size, enough to satisfy some hunger but not really enough to fill you up as a meal. More of a tasty snack! The guy working was super friendly and seemed genuinely interested in talking to us and helping us. It took a little longer than expected to get our pies but we didn't mind waiting since everyone was so kind and the pies were so good! I hope to return soon for another paint night and of course some more pies. read more

Came in again for another paint class and it was substantially worse than the last. We showed up slightly before 7 which is the supposed start time and just like last time, we started late. The artist, David, didn't even arrive until 7:20 and instead of helping us get our area ready and begin the class, he sang 2 songs first. From start to finish, there was less instruction, he didn't even finish the painting himself. Instead he would sing a song every 30 minutes and call out participants who didn't stop painting to watch him sing. At one point, he even painted on my daughter's canvas without asking. Additionally, the entire time he kept talking about how all women want to be serenaded "even the gay ones" and told the mostly female painters how their husbands should be treating them well. A man was hanging out in the store, not painting or ordering food/drinks told my daughters several times they should smile more and continued to just watch us. They were uncomfortable and I just told them to ignore him and focus on their painting. The 2 staff members who are supposed to take food and drink orders were in the back somewhere the entire time and other painters had to go find them to order. Whoever owns this place really needs to sit in on a few classes and make sure they are run well and safely. read more

Very good food and service. We had our breakfast in Palette - all was super delicious. Cappuccino was good. We also had waffles and breakfast croissants - all is very nice.

I had such a wonderful experience here! I came in for breakfast not knowing much about the place. The blonde barista was so lovely and took amazing care of me, the coffee was delicious. I had the shirred eggs and a cappuccino and I got to lose myself in painting, 10/10 would recommend and I'll absolutely be back. read more

So I've never been in here, but I honestly should. It looks cute. I've only popped in during the wine walk but never sat down and enjoyed all it had to offer. I was sick one day and a really nice friend of mine sent me food from here. And when I say he sent me food, I opened my front door and I'm pretty sure he sent me almost everything on their breakfast menu. At least 6 entrees. He said he chose it as if he was eating it and I don't think he realized that I'm also 2 feet smaller than him. Lol. Every. Single. Thing. Was AMAZING and unique! I seriously couldn't believe I've never even gave this place a try. There was a garlic croissant thing that I was skeptical about but ended up being my favorite thing. If I'm ever in the down town area looking for something to eat, I'll definitely be coming here for the food, not just the wine. Updated review coming (hopefully) soon! read more

Anticipation, enthusiasm, and elation, you must have coffee in hand! Happy is coffee! Your mood changes with the perfect cup of coffee in hand. Who does not love that older press where coffee used to come from. You don't hit a button and the machine does the work of making your coffee. Here the human component is used to ensure your coffee beverage is always stellar. This little cafe is inviting, while you bask in the glory of the warmth from the inside; the outside is something special too. In Reno they believe in conserving the past. This building while not on the national registry for its age still tells a story. In the days of yore, Reno was a mining town. This building still has the actual carriage house in the back, currently used for storage. Make sure when you stop in to take a seat in the back out side and admire the days of long past. The buggy would pull up, not a modern day car. It's fun to remember. Now back to the current times, they offer so much here. Painting and coffee. Now the painting is an incredible experience that we did not have time to do. You can see all the prior voices and pictures that adorn the walls. They offer this painting experience with your choice of alchemy beverage or bubbles. A full bar with experienced people are awaiting your choice. Come for coffee and stay for breakfast or lunch. They offer so many different choices and options for eats . The food that they serve is all prepared on sight. The muffins are delicious and made here too. So much thought has gone into the selections offered for ways to eats. While out exploring we ran across this quaint little cafe. As you walk through the doors admire the walls with all the art hanging around. The brick walls tell stories from days past. Sit and relax awhile. The coffee is epic. The food great. As we sat here the pane glass windows shine a rainbow on the coffee that we were enjoying. Happy is a state of being that we all can embrace. Now let's enjoy that coffee and cake for a moment before we move on to more joy! read more

I don't know why it took me so long to find this place, it was amazing. I got the Butterscotch latte and have been craving it since I left this place. Would definitely come back just to get that drink because it was a new taste for me and very enjoyed it. Then my partner and I got the grilled cheese and I loved it, a very nice snack and the tomato soup complimented it really well. Then Tenaya was a super friendly and open employee who walked us through what was popular with the Vanilla and Butterscotch lattes and went up to my partner and I to have a friendly talk as we do work. Definitely would come back to study and get work done read more

I did not have a good experience here. I think their main business in the day is take out orders and even though I was sitting at a table and had prepaid a service tip my food came packed to go. I found the coffee kinda late night in the office burnt. There were not alot of peaches in the pie and I found the dough rather gooey. Anyway my mistake for stopping here as daytime service is not their bag. read more

What a cute little surprise here in Reno! If you walk down West St., this place is easy to miss. It's really close to the Truckee River Walk, so a nice place to visit after a nice stroll around that area. I got the strawberries & cream croissant. Honestly, I wasn't expecting much, and I thought it was overpriced when I paid. But then when it came out and I tasted it, the price became well-justified. Creamy and light with warm strawberries inside a flaky croissant--it was sooo good! I definitely ate it too fast, lol! I know where to go for a good croissant again when I visit downtown Reno. The place itself is so cozy, cute, and unique with the painting and art theme. I love it. The service was also great! Order came out quickly and was brought just enough napkins (in addition to the ones already at the table). Awesome place and definitely recommended! read more

Generally speaking it's not a Steven E. crafted place. However, it's incredibly comfy and pretty isolated at 7:30 am on a Wednesday. I really dig the layout here. The walls are covered by incredible modern works of art by local artists, established and up-and-coming. All available for purchase, too. The tables are pallets that have become paint-covered over time. It's authentic down to the paint splattered floors. Hungry me grabbed a $6.00 breakfast sandwich and a drip coffee. The sandwich was a tasty croissant with egg, cheese and bacon. No problem with the quality. Small portion on a large croissant, but, don't lose sight of the wonderfully inviting atmosphere. I found myself focused on the passers-by thru the front window while jamming to Journey radio in the background. Ironic, because I'm not a big Journey fan. I can see how most folks could totally get lost with all the impressive paintings. I wanted to spend far more time here. If that weren't enough, I had great conversation with Kristin. Just love when YELP directs me to these gems. I'll be back in the future, maybe just for the coffee and the fellowship. Definitely as a kewl spot to hang. 09/21 read more

I tried crafted palette via Grubhub this am.. I tried the stuffed French toast that's filled with sweet cream and strawberries. It was delicious! Not overly sweet but just right! I had mine with a side of bacon, that comes complimentary with your order. I also ordered the chicken pesto quiche. It's crust was buttery and flaky, yum! I liked it very much and actually would have preferred more pesto on there! Don't be afraid to add more guys, turn that quiche green;) I ordered an additional side of bacon and a latte. My real complaint was the bacon, they burned it black and I like my bacon crispy but there was so much burnt areas it made it unpalatable unfortunately. I plan on eating there in person very soon, I would like to try other items they offer. I would definitely order from them again but I'd leave the bacon off if your getting your order to go. read more

Little baby quiche bites. read more

Such a cool spot! Searching for a good brunch place on a Saturday is a hard task and a friend told us that this location is not just a paint and sip and actually has great food. A bunch of my girlfriends showed up here and were pleasantly surprised at how empty it was and how cheap the prices were. I got a fruit compote waffle and veggie hand pie and both were deeeelicious. Only $15 for a breakfast like that was a steal. The waffle wasn't too sugary or soggy and the hand pie was such a great blend of flavors. Staff was very chatty and they did mess up one of our orders but were very gracious about it and swapped it out with ease. Definitely going to be a new breakfast spot for me. read more

I only been here twice for coffee in the morning. It's local by the river in Reno and it's a comfy spot for some breakfast and coffee in the morning. They make great breakfast items here.

I took my daughter here and she was so happy when she got a painting for her room for $10. read more

I have been to Crafted Palette many times over the years. I was even at their grand opening (my musician friends were performing). This was all before I was a Yelp Elite and before Covid. Its been long overdo! Time to review! Everyone in my household is now single. My mom, me, and our roommate. I had decided we should plan a self love day for Valentine's Day. After surviving 2020, I wanted us to celebrate and take care of our likes. So, I wanted us to eat something we really love. I was going to order delivery for all meals. Crafted Palette won the breakfast spot! I wanted something simple. So I ordered 3 breakfast sandwiches (on a croissant). And I got a drink for each of us. Something different. In the special instructions of delivery order, I asked for things to be labeled. And they did it!!! We each had a cappuccino , but different add-ins. My mom had half & half, hazelnut syrup, vanilla syrup and sugar (mom's sweet tooth is major). She loved it!! My roommate had no sugar and oat milk...he loved it!!! I had mine iced, with coconut milk, chocolate syrup, and brown sugar. I also added a shot of espresso. It was the best I ever had! read more

After attending an outdoor event, and seeing long lines. My friend suggested grabbing lunch somewhere, we were on West and so I saw the Crafted Palette and had remembered coming here during a wine walk and observing their food menu. My friend and I ended up coming in and being the only two in there. After studying the menu, I settled with a cheese plate and a hibiscus margarita. The cheese plate was large with a decent variety of cheeses and crackers. The drink was one of those that you want to sip on as it tasted soo good. Realizing the cheese plate was great but considering bearing the heat, I ordered a Beef Wellington Pie from their pop up shop. This was hot and delicious. During this time a man came in with a box of supplies and started chatting with us, I assumed he was a staff member but as he kept talking and talking and giving a book and an Artown catalogue from the previous year and asking for some cheese I gauged that he was not a staff member. The actual staff did nothing to intervene only after the fact that he was taking paintings down to see which colors matched our wardrobes. My friend and I were sitting there enjoying our meal so that was the only thing that took away from the experience. Aside from that the food and drink was great and it was a decent time. read more
