    Kids area

    A cute coffee shop in the charming town of Genoa! I loved the bee-themed decor, the cozy front porch and patio seating, and the little kids' area for parents. It's also right next to a cute bookstore, which makes for the perfect combo. I ordered the Salty Cowgirl, made Americano-style with salted caramel on the bottom and cherry cold foam on top. The cold foam was a little light on flavor, and the coffee wasn't as bold as I expected--it was definitely on the sweeter side. But once I mixed it together, it was really good. The service was friendly, the location is great, and I'll definitely be back to try another drink.

    Very cute coffee/ ice cream/ bar in the tiny town of Genoa, NV. The food and the people were very nice. I enjoyed the bee theme so much I forgot to take pictures of the food. . We had breakfast tacos and I especially enjoyed the stinger smoothie made with lemon raspberry sorbet and vodka. I was amazed that I was allowed to take it to go. But when in Rome. If you ever find yourself in Genoa it is worth a stop. Only open til 2 pm though.

    Stopped in here for a small bite to eat and some morning caffeine. I ordered the local queen bee iced and the Genoa sandwich. Both were delicious! The queen bee has local honey in it and is so good! The Genoa sandwich had ham and Swiss with aioli and veggies on toasted Parmesan sourdough bread and was also really good. The restaurant is adorable with the cutest decor and a small but really cute little bookstore/gift shop attached on the side of the building. Service was great and quick!

    Mimosa flight

    Very cute. It was very relaxing to seat outdoors and enjoy a nice quiet summer morning. Good service. Pleasant atmosphere. The breakfast boat and breakfast tacos were good. We enjoyed the mimosa flight. Our favorite was pineapple and coconut, it was refreshing and tropical. Cannot wait to go back

    A week ago, a friend and I had a most delightful meal in the cute Flutter & Buzz Cafe in Genoa. You order and pay at the cashier near the door, then if eating in the cafe, they give you a number, and bring your order to the table you select. The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, the service is friendly, and the food is tasty. And... they are right next door to a bookstore! The cafe could not be more perfect. We'll be back soon.

    Avocado toast with the fixings
    Sarah S.

    Buyer beware, I was sorely disappointed in the "mimosa flight" pour size as I had referenced Yelp and the picture from the month prior which was not a tiny pour...we felt misled. Onward, their mushroom bliss sandwich was fantastic. The avocado toast with the all fixings was a wee bit too rich... I would recommend the more simple option. Overall, cute place in Genoa. Will opt for drinks at the Genoa bar across the street next time

    Fire roasted tomato soup and salad with balsamic dressing. Yum!

    Pro's: Varied menu, super fresh foods Con's: None Go back?: Yes! More...What an excellent weather day it was in Genoa. A friend and I stopped in to this cafe for a bit. I loved my fire roasted tomato soup and their house salad. Both were fresh and delicious. The bonus was the house made chocolate ice cream! All was very delicious and sitting outside was lovely.

    We came in for breakfast and were very pleased with the friendly staff and delicious breakfast. We enjoyed a croissant sandwich and a bagel sandwich with Americano coffee. Cute Cute place!

    Sometimes you just need motivation to get up and out and around. Today it was Flutter and Buzz that got us moving, and who knew that the menu was so varied that would have something for both of us We just walked 1.3 miles from Wally's Hot Springs and it was a very sunny day. We were parched and offered a pitcher of water while we waited for our food order. We enjoyed it very much. Curious about the food? We had scrambled eggs with a variety of vegetables and white, sharp cheddar cheese, splendid in. It was delightful. We also shared a blueberry muffin, a Mediterranean avocado toast, and we enjoyed a bowl of fruit as well. The environment was very casual and welcoming. On this visit, we sat on the porch at a table for two and enjoyed the view of downtown Genoa as we ate our breakfast. This establishment let you know that there's more than just a bar in Genoa. We will be back.

    My family and I enjoyed our lunch at Flutter & Buzz Cafe! Mom and I had the Pollinator (a veggie, cheese and hummus sandwich on the most delicious bread), their Bloody Mary was so good! My daughter enjoyed a Caesar Salad and an iced late. The restaurant is adorable, with a very nice ambiance. The staff are so friendly and helpful. We really enjoyed our time at this lovely cafe.

    Such a cute find in the 1851 town of Genoa. Loved everything about this place! Inside and outside seating, partial to the amazingly mountainous views from the outside deck. Service was super friendly and they were so hospitable! Made sure everything was made to order and the food was delicious.

    Mediterranean avocado toast with an added poached egg
    Ashley H.

    This place is the cutest and has really comfortable seating inside and outside. Their menu is a bit confusing they have one menu for food, one menu for coffee, and one menu for alcohol. They then have a few items on a digital menu. We ordered the pollinator sandwich, the Mediterranean avocado toast with a poached egg added($3 extra for the egg) the salty cowgirl coffee, and a hibiscus blueberry iced tea with honey. The Parmesan crusted sourdough on both the sandwich and avocado toast was so delicious. The toppings on the sandwich were fresh but I think it needed a bit more hummus or some type of aioli as it was kind of dry. The avocado on the toast seemed to be some type of premade spread as it didn't have much flavor. This was confusing because all of the other ingredients were extremely fresh. Also on the avocado toast- avocado should be the star of the dish - and unfortunately that wasn't the case. If it was advertised this way I would have gladly paid extra for actual fresh slices of avocado. The egg was poached perfectly which was impressive! The salty cowgirl was the perfect blend of salty and sweet. The tea was refreshing and had a unique and delicious flavor. Overall for the four items it was $50 before tip so it was a bit pricey but also expected for Genoa. They charge 3% for paying with a credit card which I didn't see anywhere (I could have missed it because I wasn't looking for it) but it was on my receipt. Will probably try this place again but won't get the avocado toast unless there is an upgrade!

    Cute and Friendly Spot [Genoa NV} Located in Nevada's oldest settlement we stopped by this café looking to grab a bite. The establishment looked like a house complete with a porch and stair leading up to the door. When we entered the place it had the comforts similar to like having brunch in a cozy comfortable seating enjoying a cup of joe by a fire, at a table, or on the patio. The vibe was very welcoming and positive. Lots of natural lighting from the many windows. I love the homey and comfort feeling. Couldn't decide if we wanted a savory breakfast or breakfast sweet treats, lunch sandwich or soup & salad. After browsing through the electronic scrolling menu screen we placed our orders at the bar counter. We decided on a Build-Your-Own Scramble with add on options of bacon crumbles, mushroom, spinach, tomatoes and cheese. We picked a table inside the café then shortly after our food was served. The breakfast was delicious, light and tasty... I should've gotten the 3-eggs (I ordered 2 eggs). Hubby and I had a pleasant experience and are looking forward to returning when we come back to this side of Nevada. Review #3733

The coffee here is still remarkable, and they have added a larger selection of beans, pods, and coffee accessories. Service is still about the same.

    Ok, Minden. I see you! First time finding a coffee shop here that is more my style. I happened to…read morebe in the neighborhood and was looking for breakfast spots. 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.

Trailfolk is actually tucked inside the Basecamp Hotel, but keep going because there is good food in there, I promise. They had a sign out front confirming it when we walked up. We grabbed breakfast tacos and fresh-pressed juice, and both were delicious. The tacos were flavorful, a little greasy, but exactly the kind of breakfast you want after a late night at a concert. The salsa was delicious. Their juices are pressed, and you can absolutely taste the difference from something poured out of a bottle. We sat outside, which was a little cold, but the fires they had made it worth it. It's a fun little find that probably would have been completely missed without Yelp. Good food, fresh juice, cute Tahoe coffee-shop vibes hidden in a hotel lobby. Definitely worth wandering inside.

The avocado toast was completely different, and had scrambled egged instead of sliced hard boiled eggs... menu said cherry tomatoes but they were bigger and what seemed to be sun dried. With that being said I still liked it but it was different. My best friend wanted a coffee which she didn't love. She did see some type of potato bowl on the menu that we came back for the next day and I decided to try the Nutella toast but sub peanut butter instead which you could add for 1$ but I don't like Nutella. And when I tell you I am a peanut butter baby that means what it means. So when there was too much peanut butter on the toast how is that possible....? But there just was. It weighed the bread down. I don't think it was very toasted unfortunately. I liked it but had to try to get some of the PB off so I didn't choke. My best friend likes her bowl, but the opposite happened to her she got the sliced hard boiled egg whereas she thought it would be scrambled although admitted to not closely reading the menu. Overall a strange couple days but will most likely return on future Tahoe visits because it's simple and fast and decently priced for the area.

I think it's safe to say they use frozen corn which is a shame because fresh corn is still very much in season. I had their corn as an accompaniment to one of my past dishes and the texture is the same. Completely over cooked, soggy, mushy corn on the cob with absolutely no flavor. And get this, it costs $18 or $19! It's literally one corn on the cob that they portion into 4 or 6 pieces. Fish Special - It was rock fish with a red pepper sauce, eggplant stacked with feta and herbed roasted potatoes. The fish was over cooked and really salty. Eggplant was dry and difficult to eat. I didn't even bother with it. Potatoes, no big deal. Margherita Pizza - Good flavor, just not a fan of their crust Tchoupitoulas- We've gotten this in the past and this seems to be consistent with flavor and execution. My husband said it was as good as the first time. Kid's Mac n Cheese - At $19 I expected a large portion. It's not. But it was the best dish we ordered. It's more of a macaroni with Alfredo sauce rather than a cheddar mac n cheese. My son enjoyed it as did everyone else at the table.
