    Pangolin is such a cute café in Midtown! The complimentary Turkish sweet treat that comes with your drink is the cherry on top and makes the whole experience feel extra special. The café has a crisp, clean vibe that's both welcoming and relaxing. The drinks are delicious, the prices are standard, and that little Turkish treat is what really makes it all worth it. The staff is friendly, the atmosphere is charming, and it's a perfect spot to relax or catch up with friends.

    Pistachio latte & Pumpkin spice waffle
    Tami F.

    Great coffee spot! The person taking my order was amazing.......she was patient & answered all my questions! I got there mid morning so they were out of all pastries & food except waffles. I had the fall special pumpkin spice waffle & I got an iced pistachio latte! Both were really good!! Let me tell u.....& don't hate me but I am not a pumpkin spice fan at all but that waffle wow....it was so good & if ur not a pumpkin spice fan it will convert u! The waffle wasn't like ur average waffle it was soft & it looks small but it was more than enough. There were places to sit inside and out and the space was inviting. Overall great experience and coffee shop!

    Sand harbor
    Melissa A.

    My go to coffee shop, there consists with their drinks and great customer service. my preferred drink is the sand harbor with almond milk! when ordering you get a free Turkish delight. Before heading into this aesthetically pleasing coffee shop, Please keep in mind it is a small cafe with limited seating and parking.

    1/2 Sweet Strawberry Matcha
    Morgan Z.

    I've gone here twice within the past month for the Strawberry Matcha and I will be back again very soon because it's just that good. I get mine 1/2 sweet and it's the perfect mix of matcha with their housemade strawberry simple syrup with fresh strawberries. I've only grabbed drinks to-go but the inside is super cute with plenty of seating. I went in the last morning on a weekday and it wasn't too busy but when I went on a Sunday it was packed in the morning but I still only waited ~15 minutes for my drinks. I will be back for the strawberry matcha and hope to try some of their other unique drinks in the future too!

    Mango Sticky Rice Matcha
    Mel S.

    We came in on a busy Sunday morning & despite the line, we received our drinks very quickly! I ordered the Mango Sticky Rice Matcha & it's so delicious! Not too sweet & super refreshing. My partner got the Cardamom Lemonade and added a shot of espresso. The barista taking our order shared that this was "new, but we can do that!" casting no judgement upon my partner's strange order! He ended up loving his drink! We got the Flavor of the Month for our Turkish Delight sample (Li Hing Mui Peach Mango) and it's been our favorite so far! All of the baristas are lovely, but we have to give Nina a shoutout for being incredible!

    Tucked away is this cute little shop that has a big coffee and tea menu. They also make their own Turkish delight and a free piece is given with every purchase. I tried the pomegranate pistachio and it was very good with my matcha latte. Indoor seating. Please come and create your own adventure.

    This cafe is located next to the Emerson and it is very cute! It's my first time here and the customer gave me a great recommendation of the "sand harbor" drink. It is a little sweet but I did have an extra shot of espresso to balance it out. Every drink comes with a free Turkish delight, I got the vanilla rose and it was a delicious little treat

    Oatchata (oatmilk w cinnamon and vanilla)
    Lexine F.

    The ambiance is super cute and a cozy cafe to sit and yap at. There is places to sit inside and outside. They offer one free turkish delight with a purchase of any drink. I ordered the oatchata. It was really creamy and had a nice balance of oat milk, vanilla and cinnamon. There were two employees manning both the bar and register. They worked really well together and tag teammed the rush of people waiting to order and to get their drinks.

    Mango sticky rice matcha
    Lisa L.

    Wonderful coffee drinks and Turkish delights! They have a seasonal drink menu. I got the mango sticky rice matcha, great mango flavor to complement the matcha. Do not miss out on their chai, it is the best in town. Turkish delights are out of this world.

    Turkish delights
    Melissa L.

    This coffee shop was amazing! I saw it online and had to check it out. The baristas were incredibly kind and recommended their miso brown sugar matcha when I asked for matcha suggestions. I loved how it had both sweet and umami taste to it - it surprisingly worked really well together. My boyfriend ordered the pistachio latte, which was also delicious. I especially liked the crushed pistachios on top; it was a really nice touch. With each drink purchase, we also received two complimentary Turkish delights. We tried the pomegranate and pistachio flavors, and both were yummy. I will definitely be coming back the next time I'm visiting Reno.

    Matcha and vanilla rose Turkish delight
    Sarah T.

    One of my favorite local spots! The staff is always so nice and make the bests drinks. Anything matcha here is a win. And the Turkish delight that comes with every order is simply delightful!!! Calm clean interior, perfect for studying or hanging out.

    Vanilla latte

    Such a cute little Cafe with adorable decorations and a patio for relaxing at while enjoying your beverage of choice. Don't forget your complimentary Turkish delight. The coffee is delicious and the staff is very friendly.

    9/9/25 FYI. Special - Pumpkin pie waffle
    Lee D.

    Quality/Quantity - Just gave more blood at Quest and wanted to treat myself to a decent coffee and breakfast! Limited menu, but done well. Seasonal specials, etc. Got the Cubano Breve - So good! Not as strong as the Cubano I drank when in Little Havana in Florida. But still good. Pumpkin Pie Waffle - My wife really enjoyed this. I thought it was good also. I like pumpkin, but not as a puree. I also got two confection samples, two Turkish delights; my daughter's favorites. I will bring her next time she visits. But not as good as the ones we buy in SLO, Monterey, etc. Atmosphere - Very small local business. Limited indoor seating, plenty of unused outdoor seating but it was too cold today. See pictures. Very small shared parking lot, but plenty of free street parking. Open 6 days a week from 7am to 5pm, closed Saturdays. Clean shared restrooms. Service - Love the fact that the team here knows all the regulars! So welcoming and friendly. Said bye to everyone as they left, etc. Price - $14 + generous tip, but that is the price for quality! Owner Comment - Congrats on your success since 2019; looking forward to introducing you to more people.

    Are the turkish delights made with gelatin?

    For the vegans out there, we do not use gelatin! Thanks for asking.

    Does this Cafe raise awareness on the plight of this endangered and exploited animal namesake?

This place has a lot of cheese options which I love and a lot of hot sauce and options at the counter which makes things even better. My onion bagel was just okay kind of hard and dry, but my friend got the jalapeño cheese one that was a lot better with pepper jack that was pretty bomb. My eggs were seasoned and filling, cheese melted and bagel sandwich steaming hot which I appreciated. It is a great stop for a bfst sandwich if you don't have time to wait long or have a long drive like me. I think I love most how lovely the bathroom smells- lemongrass and it was very clean which is always a major plus. There is a lot for parking as well. I think if I returned I would def go with that delicious pepper jack and try a diff bagel. They also have smoked turkey meat so that brought the bagels up to a new level. And they have free WiFi. So a good spot to hang out and do work or apparently bring your kids too haha

I was in Reno yesterday for a Reno Aces Game (they beat Tacoma 13-8), and had time to stop at the Midtown Truckee Bagel Company. From there, it was a short drive to Greater Nevada field. +/- - Counter service was slowed down by the counter person taking phone orders. - Somewhat limited Bagel selection this late in the day. That was OK as my half dozen selection of sundried tomato, wheat, and combo bagels was a good one. - They were out of regular cream cheese, so I settled for a bit pricy smear of Herb. Positives - Easy access on and off Virginia and good available parking. - Expected casual bagel shop ambience, including display and sandwich making behind the counter. - Bagels are baked, no steamed. - Bagels were put in plastic bag (with tie) which in my opinion preserves freshness vs. a paper bag. - My toasted breakfast bagel (next day) was the right amount of heft, chewiness, and flavor. I almost could have eaten it without the cream cheese, but that smear just added to its goodness.

I ordered a matcha and really liked it, and there are other drinks and items worth trying as well.
