    Coffee here is decent. There are lots of comfy places to sit inside and outside here. We were there with our pup, so we sat at one of the square tables outside the front door. I can see that this would be a good place for reading, writing letters, or working on any writing project. I liked that it was an independant and not part of a large chain. I'll continue to give them my business when in the area.

    Amazing place... the inside had about 3 sections, each with different vibes. Great place to hang out. Nice people. Good coffee but nothing exceptional.

    DST Coffee is a great little coffee stop with long hours and affordable prices in the heart of Gardnerville. I think for a local coffee shop, DST might have the best prices in the game. Sick of getting ripped off at Starbucks for a crappy cup of $9 coffee? DST is your spot! Three drinks for $16! They also have a small selection of merch and pastries. The barista was super nice and very helpful. She made several recommendations for another guest who asked about their popular drinks and unique choices. She recommended the lavender latte or the matcha! There is a beautiful inside and outdoor space at DST as well, so be sure to put aside some time to sit and enjoy no matter the weather! I'll be back, DST!

    Cute decor

    Stopped by for a drink on my way to Tahoe. It was the perfect pick me up in the morning. The barista was super friendly and the place is really cute. I ordered a London fog and it was really good, I love earl grey tea. If I'm ever in the area again, I'll for sure stop by and hopefully get the chance to stick around and chill longer, maybe read a book on the couch.

    Great service, amazing view! Wow. Love this place. Great coffee as well. Everything I want in a small town coffee shop. But those views!!

    Affogato with vanilla bean ice cream

    Just driving through and I got the affogato and had to go next door for the handmade vanilla bean ice cream. Man! It was good!

    Super cute entrance

    Stopped by this cute coffee shop before heading back to CA. Staff is welcoming with beautiful smile and vanilla latte is super delish! Decor is also so pretty and comfy. Highly recommended!

    The Americano with cream....

    Clean, friendly, family owned, plenty of parking, tasty coffee....what more do you want???? ...and they've got ice cream.

    Lavender Latte and Toasted Coconut Latte
    Mike J.

    To be clear: the two drinks combined for $11. They were not $11 each. The price was so low I had to confirm she charged me. Don't "Oh, no!" this! The place was great!

    Pumpkin Latte
    Elizabeth S.

    Loved everything about this place. First, my Pumpkin Latte was served in a real cup. Not only did it look good, it tasted even better. The staff was friendly and the place was really cozy with fun and original decor. I wish I had more time to sit and read a book. I live in Reno, but will definitely make this a stop when in the area.

    Super cute coffee shop! I got an iced matcha latte like i always do whenever i try a new cafe. Service was good and fast. Decor was cute inside and they also had a lot of outdoor seating.

I also really enjoyed their WHITE CHOCOLATE RASPBERRY SCONE which was recommended by one of their employees. I also tried their CINNAMON ROLL LATTE - just a latte with cinnamon. Nothing special. Service can be spotty depending who you get at the window. My first visit there, the young lady was very pleasant and helpful. Second visit, not so much (different girl). Wait times can be long because I think only 2 people work at a time. It is a tiny shack after all. I will continue to make the drive when I crave that TIRAMISU LATTE.

A couple places popped up, but after doing some research, I decided to give this place a shot as their menu and ambiance piqued my interest. This place is hidden within a bunch of medical offices and other restaurants. You won't see it off the main drag. They have plenty of indoor seating as well as outdoor seating. Interior looked clean and well organized. This place had an extensive coffee/drink menu as well as food/pastry offerings. You can get a full breakfast here. I tried: BD's latte - Your basic latte garnished with candied orange and a dusting of shaved chocolate. What a beautiful presentation! Love photo worthy coffee drinks. My only critique is that this drink would be 5 stars if the latte itself had an orange syrup or flavoring to match the garnish. This would have really made this latte pop with flavor. Dog House Toast - avocado toast with 2 poached eggs, hollandaise, and arugula. That hollandaise gives it this delicious richness that makes this breakfast satisfying and the arugula balancing it out with some freshness. I only wished the yolk was runnier. It was almost over done. They had so many other food and drink items I wanted to try. They had an extensive seasonal menu. I really wanted to try their S'mores Bourbon Cold Brew. I will definitely be back to try their other items.

Currently they have send me a double order and are prepared today to sent me yet another order. They do not answer their emails or their phone. No idea what is going on but endless supplies of 5 pound bags of coffee every few weeks is not what I want. I will cancel my subscription, membership and never order again. (I'd burn their shirt as well but it's a pretty nice t-shirt). My advice is to never order anything from them. Perhaps they will get customer service straightened out but as of the last two months it is a nightmare. New- I sent 19 emails with the exact same information-a notice showing a new shipment of coffee mirroring the order I received two weeks ago and asking them to cancel- and this Yelp review. They contacted me via email assuring me the order was cancelled, when my next delivery was due, and thanking me for my years of service. My guess is a negative Yelp review impacts them. I like their coffee. I like the fact some of the money goes to eye cancer research. But beware, you are on your own to handle subscriptions and shipments.
