    Iced caramilla
    Teuila G.

    Super quick service. This visit staff was more friendly than past previous visits here. It was busy and the shop was just as I remembered. I met my sister at the Marina for a few laps and we popped in to grab a drink. We didn't order any food items because we were going to brunch afterwards. I needed my caffeine fix after my hot class to be able to last the extra laps before brunch. I ordered my usual iced oatmilk caramilla and my sister in law got a hot mocha. We enjoyed our drinks while strolling the marina. We'll be back in next time we're in the area.

    Really cute and fun space designed for a variety of customers. Stopped by on a Tuesday afternoon and had a pleasant ordering experience. Hardly any wait for my beverage (dirty chai) and there are lots of food and drink options! There's very sunny patio seating, and three seating zones inside. Seems to be a kid-friendly space; there were several moms with toddlers. There were also people working on laptops and reading, so it seems like a solid spot for whatever you need it to be. Will be back!

    I think this is one of the best chais in the Reno/Sparks area. They have a standalone location in sparks and then one at the marina, which is pictured here. It's a great location to grab a coffee and take a stroll around the marina. I've always had very friendly service here too!

    Great and fast service as usual. The young lady did great getting our orders and accommodating with the food preferences we have. I Highly recommend !

    We like to stop here after walking around the marina. I haven't been there when there wasn't a line, not a fast moving line but manageable. I saved an outdoor table while hubby and friend ordered and waited for our items. The quiche was tasty and it was made with hash browns as the crust, which I liked. It was cheesy and the olives were yummy! The blended drink was refreshing. Hubby and friend got smoothies mango and 3 berry with protein powder. They enjoyed them. Outside was shady a nice place to visit and people watch.

    Irish cream latte

    We saw that they had pistachio lattes so we went. They did not, but the other coffee that we had was good. We had a strawberry donut and berry coffee cake. The coffee cake was dry and the donut wasn't good. We won't be back.

    I love coming to Lighthouse Coffee for the views, seasonal drinks, and cozy atmosphere. The service is always great, with a very friendly staff. I visited this weekend and ordered the Winter Spice Latte - the aroma was inviting, and the drink was perfectly sweet and flavorful. I loved how the spices complemented the coffee. 10/10 recommend this place!

    Lighthouse Coffee is hands-down my favorite spot in town. They always have great options, and everything tastes good and is clearly thoughtfully crafted. My newest obsession is their mango matcha - it is to die for. If you haven't tried it yet, you're seriously missing out! Also with their new interior revamp there is more room for sitting and hanging out!

    I always go to the Marina location because of the nice view while drinking coffee. The baristas are ALWAYS so friendly and welcoming. I love most of their drinks but I feel like their matcha's hit or miss. Their Blended Caramilla is my go to order. I tried the Tiramisu Latte and it was good! Their Dubai Chocolate was too sweet. The Mango Matcha felt like it needed more matcha to it. The mango at the bottom tastes good though!

    Iced matcha with a bacon and cheddar scone (in bag)

    Where do I start?! I love finding smaller local coffee shops. I kept hearing about this place (I just moved here from Sacramento). People have said they have great coffee and food. So I had to stop in and try something. I got the matcha, a bacon and cheddar scone and a chocolate milk for my daughter. The scone was AMAZING. The matcha was GREAT! Next time I'm trying their coffee. Ambiance is cute. Small inside area and a wonderful outdoor seating area too!

    Located at the Sparks Marina Park. We were walking the loop around the lake and made a stop here to get some coffee and breakfast sandwich. There is seating inside and outside the store. It was busy but wasn't too bad.

    Rodolfo and an Americano.

    Great spot with some great employees. The coffee is so much better than your chain coffee shops. They've also got a rewards program that keeps me coming back. So if you're tired of just bad bean coffee go to the lighthouse. I'm there at least once a week.

    I have heard great things about Lighthouse but we are just never over on that side of town! Well, we were assigned the Sparks Marina for our volunteer work this week and I just knew we would have to stop for a break. Turns out, Saturday evening was the perfect time for a tea! I had the Raspberry Matcha which I LOVED and my hubby enjoyed his coffee as well. This cute little shop is def a hidden gem. While it is small on the inside their patio area with the view of the water is something special. On top of that, everyone was very friendly and our drinks were done almost as fast as we ordered them! Maybe, I will just have to make more special trips over to enjoy their offerings!

    This place felt like Willy Wonka opened a milkshake bar for the Instagram generation…read more We stopped by Black Rock Dessert while looking for ice cream and instead found milkshakes on steroids. We ordered the Dust Storm: a vanilla milkshake with chocolate bits, topped with a giant blondie skewered dramatically on top, plus whipped cream, sprinkles, and chocolate drizzle. The rim of the jar was coated in marshmallow dip and graham cracker crumbs because apparently subtlety has left the chat. Honestly, the presentation was on point and exactly the kind of milkshake kids dream about. Which is why we ordered it. My tween declared it "the best milkshake I've ever seen in my life," and honestly, that alone made it worth the stop on our mother-daughter trip. Taste-wise, it leaned very sweet for me and didn't have a ton of flavor depth beyond sugar overload. But clearly the goal here is maximal fun and aesthetic, and they absolutely nailed that. It's basically a photo op you can drink. The shop itself was surprisingly quiet when we visited in the evening--we had the whole place to ourselves--but there were games to play while waiting for our order (we pulled out Pick Up Sticks, which transported me straight back to my 90s childhood living room). The ladies at the counter were also incredibly kind and patient explaining the menu and flavors to us. If you're looking for an over-the-top dessert experience your kids will talk about for days, this is your place.

I was super bummed they didn't have any, but we did settle for their peanut butter chocolate marble cake. I'm a personal sucker for lemon anything, so their lemon blueberry was a no-brainer. We had to take a red velvet cake bomb home as well. It's a big "cake pop" coated in chocolate ganache. It was my personal favorite! This cute little shop hasn't changed since the last time I set foot in there. The older lady working in the evening was a doll. She was friendly and patiently answered all of my questions. The frosting wasn't overly sweet, but our cake slices were on the dry side. I wish at about $9 a slice they were dated, so as a consumer, I knew when it was baked. The cake bomb is the way to go if you want dry cake or wash it down with a glass of milk. *They do a stamp card here, so ask for yours when you check out.* With their prices creeping up, I'll have to rethink my next visit to buy a dry slice of cake.

I stopped by right before closing and even though it was quiet the staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming. I'm no stranger to this chain (usually visit locations in LA) but this particular spot absolutely lived up to expectations. The store was clean, bright, and colorful, with a variety of options to choose from. I picked up a mix of ice cream pops (banana, jamaica, strawberry, arroz con leche, and rompope). Every single one was delicious! I grabbed a few more flavors too, but those stood out as my favorites so far. To top it off, I tried the agua de jamaica, which was perfectly balanced refreshing and not overly sweet. Overall this location delivered exactly what I love about La Michoacána: great flavors, friendly service and a welcoming atmosphere. Highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area even if it's late they'll still treat you right!

The lines are crazy since they took to social media. Order in person and take a buzzard and stick close; wait times can vary. I recommend getting there after opening to ensure you're not waiting too long for your cup. They offer dessert mini pancakes and crepes. Quality ingredients, I just wish my cup had more of an even mixup of the pistachio to chocolate ratio. Everything else was delicious and well worth the hype. The cups are a bit spendy $18/ cup, but nowadays what isn't?! This truck can be found parked next to the grocery outlet on the weekends Friday and Saturday 6:30-10:30 p.m. and Sundays 6:30-10 p.m. They prefer cash, apple pay and zelle, but they do also accept cards. Support local and check them out for your next sweet tooth craving. Don't forget they offer a limited selection of drinks and strawberries and cream cups. (A personal weakness).
