    Their Cold Brew which tastes like watered down tea water.  Not impressed at all.  Do not bother.  I even asked for it to be corrected twice.

    Disappointed, this will be my third time at this facility and disappointed each time. My wife and I were on a coffee date. I ordered their Cold Brew, trying again for the third time hoping it would be good. Little to no flavor and looked like tea water. I even drove back and showed them hoping for a good cold brew. See the attached photo below, this is the second cup. I will not be returning. Pass by and go to DTS Coffee or somewhere else and not waist your money.

    This place is ok...I just want to know why all their coffee tastes like it is burnt? The yogurt covered coffee beans are pretty good though

    Blind Dog has done some remodeling since my first review... they now have some alternative seating…read moreoptions and have gotten rid of the kids' play area, which was a favorite of ours when visiting with our kids. 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. Friendly but can take a long time, especially if you order food or something that comes out of the back. Still probably the best speciality coffee shop in the Carson Valley area.

    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.

    Schat's Bakery & Restaurant in Minden was a perfect stop when we came off the lake for a night from…read moreour local camping spot. We ordered the Reuben Stacker and the Tahoe Blue. Service was friendly and the food was excellent. The Reuben is a thick hot pastrami on grilled Jewish rye with Swiss, sauerkraut, and Thousand Island. The Tahoe Blue is a hot albacore tuna melt on grilled sourdough with cheddar. Both came with a side as advertised, salad on my plate and fries on my wife's with Ranch dressing to dip the fries in. Portions were generous and the bread is amazing and baked in-house daily. The bakery case is one of many reasons to come back....! Coffee cakes, croissants, cookies, fruit tarts, and packaged loaves were all out and labeled. We bought croissants and cookies to take back to camp and they traveled (and ate) well....! The one real drawback is the building. The bakery and restaurant share a door with C.O.D. Casino next door. When that door opens, cigarette smoke comes into the dining and bakery area. The restroom is also on the casino side. That does not change the quality of the sandwiches or pastry, but it is noticeable and it is worth knowing before you sit down, especially if you are sensitive to smoke or bringing food out for a trip. Note: they do have outdoor seating. We love having this place close to home and will use it again for lunch and bakery takeout for sure! Four stars because the food and service earned five and the smoke and restroom setup cost one.

    It's too bad they were about to close, so we only get their bread selections, which is still…read morealright. We always go to Schat in Carson, so when we were in Minden, its branch was our first choice for late lunch. We got what's available without the need for them to prepare, since they are closing. I got a ham sandwich and my two boys got pizza bagel -- everything is good, and although my sandwich is already pre-made, they still tasted fresh. I always love the ambiance there. It's always relaxing and the interior is classic. We ate in the park since they are already closing, but that's alright.

    I know I rated this spot low at 3.5 stars initially, based on quality/taste of food and value, but…read moreI came back to show my MIL around town. I very easily could have brought my rating up to a solid 4 stars because the food I ordered this time around was delicious! I got their roast beef panini special with potato salad and their dalgona iced coffee. I also, tried a croissant and apple danish. All items exceeded my expectations compared to the previous breakfast items I had in previous visits. But, here's the kicker. The one star is due to CHASELIN'S/CHAS-LYNN'S (spelling) egregious customer service. From the moment we stepped in she greeted us with crossed arms and no smile. Right away, MAJOR ATTITUDE. She was very frank and short with us as if she didn't want to be bothered. She frankly directed us to the menus and spoke so fast as if she was just over having to repeat the same thing over and over to customers walking in. It took a while for my MIL and I to decide on what we wanted when a guy came in behind us. With the biggest attitude, she impatiently asks, "Are you guys ready?" We weren't. She goes, "Well, I'm gonna take care of this guy first." OK, fine. We stepped aside. We finally placed our order and I was curious to try their pastries. I asked CHASELIN (spelling) what pastries she recommended. With such an attitude she goes, "Well, do you like muffins? danishes?" As if I was wasting her time to answer my question. I told her, "Not muffins." She right away turned to the special board and read verbatim "We have an apple and cherry danish". I can read. I didn't need for her to read the board to me. I asked, "WHAT DO YOU RECOMMEND?" Her response, "Well, they're 2 different fruits, so it's really just preference. " REALLY??! NO SHIT they're 2 different fruits. My response, "OK, so you don't recommend anything. Got it." Both my husband and I are in the hospitality industry and we are very attuned to what excellent customer service is. My husband and I looked at each other with astonishment at how rude and impolite this girl was. It was evident she didn't want to be there and her attitude was completely uncalled for and just plain RUDE! With that attitude she needs to be in the back of the house, not the front. Whatever "at home issues" you're having, keep it at home! We have nothing to do with your personal problems. For the amount of money we spent on lunch $51+ for 2 ppl, not including the mimosas my husband purchased, I would expect even the most basic courteous customer service. TO THE OWNER OF THIS BUSINESS: I highly recommend training or re-training your employees on basic customer service or filter out your bad apples. It's not a good look for you.
