    "Costco muffin", lemon raspberry
    Alicia W.

    I was downtown getting some labs done and looked up coffee shops nearby. This one popped up as only 800ft away, so I decided to swing by! It was hard to find because Apple Maps doesn't say anything about this being inside the ROC Clinic. Even once inside the clinic, it was hard to find because I came in through a side entrance and didn't see any signs saying it was on the second floor. I finally found it and it's a pretty cool space! I love the tall outdoorsy artwork right next to the coffee shop. They have some pastries and other small food items, plus tons of drink options! I got a blueberry lavender iced tea for my friend, she loved it and said it was the perfect refreshing summer drink. I appreciated that they had some unique tea options for those that don't want coffee! They have a list of barista specials which has a wide variety of different drink flavor combos. I love specialty drinks, so I got their current special which was an iced strawberry maple latte! The drink was very tasty, I thought it had more of the strawberry taste than the maple but it still tasted good together! I got a lemon raspberry muffin, the register rang it up as a "Costco muffin" which made me laugh. You should just label it as a muffin so people don't realize it's just a rebranded muffin from somewhere else haha! It was quite tasty for being a Costco muffin though. This was a solid stop for drinks and snacks, I probably won't be back since I'm not ever in this area or at ROC but will definitely plan on going to their other drive thru location again in the future!

    This place is located inside of ROC physical therapy building on the second floor. I was waiting in the lobby so I got a quick snack from them and a hot beverage. The employees here were really nice. Answer my questions and recommended suggestions for what to get. I ended up getting a breakfast burrito. It had eggs, potatoes and cheese, which is perfect because I don't eat pork. Along with a dirty chai with lavender syrup. I got to add coconut milk instead of regular milk without extra charge. This drink was really good. I liked the burrito too. Is directly in front of the physical therapy if you're waiting to go into your appointment. Or if you're waiting on someone else in the lobby downstairs. They offer food items if you need breakfast, snacks or a quick lunch. There is a sitting area off to the side which is really cool. That way you don't have to eat on your lap.

    Happy Holidays at the Roost

    I had an appointment at ROC for a sprained ankle (boooo) so I decided to check out The Roost as a treat! They had a little line but the baristas were quick in getting their coffees and food out. I loved that they had a board of barista favorite drinks, it helps so much when I'm feeling uninspired and indecisive! I tried their gingerbread latte, the weekly special, and a cinnamon raisin bagel with cream cheese. The latte was nice and spicy at first but wasn't too overpowering! The bagel was yummy, but my cream cheese cup was missing, oops! The bagel and coffee came out separately, and I definitely didn't check my bag before I left, so that may have been my fault. Overall, if I ever see myself at the ROC or in the area again, I'd visit the Roost again! They were cutely decorated for the holidays and even had free donuts and drip coffee out for patrons as well!

They have a black sign with a bird on it which is really the only marker you can spot for knowing you've found it. The inside has simple decor but is bright and clean. I got a standard iced vanilla latte and croissant, both satisfied my breakfast cravings but were not anything extraordinary. With so many great coffee shops in Reno, you've got to find a way to stand out to get people back in the door. Even though I had a good experience here, I'm not sure if I would be rushing back unless I found something worth returning for. Still a nice place to stop if you're in the are!

We were a little bummed because we saw on their listing that they have pastries and were wanting a little snack but they didn't have any available that day. We were both happy with our coffee selections and my latte had a pretty design on it. The barista was pleasant and answered our questions, especially after we let her know we were first timers. If you are looking for cute and cozy, this probably isn't your vibe. It was pretty cold, and the tables and chairs were just basic hard white furniture and the barstools didn't look particularly comfortable either. We probably would have stayed for another cup but both of us were feeling restless and my legs were starting to get numb after sitting for a while. I'd most likely come in and do a to go order if I were to come back. Because the drinks were definitely good. Just not really my jam for a place to sit and visit.

We looked the roastery up and drove over. Tim was such a nice and welcoming guy, and really takes pride in what he does. We bought a bunch of bags and filled up our carry-on and flew home with it. Fast forward to 2 years later, we hare happy Coffee of the Month subscribers and look forward to getting Tim's coffee in the mail. We've gifted the subscription to our friends and family too, and everyone loves it. Perfect for the coffee lover in your life. I look forward to grinding up these beans and enjoying the most delicious French pressed coffee every morning. I feel so lucky we followed our curiosity that one day in Reno.

It would not be out of place in a three-Michelin-star dining room. He roasts every batch himself over a wood fire, feeding a beautiful old roaster with logs he chops by hand. His espresso blends are composed with a level of precision that feels almost synesthetic. Ask him what he is aiming for and he will describe the roast in shapes: how wide the base should be, whether it tapers or flares, how many sides the finished polygon has. I have stood there listening, fascinated, with no real idea what he is talking about, then tasted the cup and understood anyway. Important to know: this is not a coffee shop. There is no barista counter. It is a modest storefront and warehouse, and if you stop by you will likely see Tim at the roaster, stoking the fire. The aroma is arresting from the street. That wood fire imparts a signature note that sets his coffee apart. It does not turn smoky in the jerky sense. It reads as a gentle campfire thread running through the cup, adding warmth and dimension without heaviness. Since moving away from Reno I miss these beans enough that I cave and pay the shipping. If you order Priority Mail, the bags arrive right in the early sweet spot of their drinkability window, perfect for dialing in extraction. If you know your way around a grinder and an espresso machine, get these beans. Tim Curry is an amazing craftsman making world-class coffee, one hand-roasted batch at a time.

Mango gelato tasted like straight mango puree in the best way, absolutely blew me away. We then had to try more. The chai gelato is actually insane, it's straight up like eating a chai latte (which they also have here, and are also fantastic, but best hot). The coffee gelato was a light coffee taste, absolutely fantastic but my least favorite of the bunch. Service was also very fast and kind, just wanted to make sure I pointed that out. They tend to play indie rock and older stuff like dinosaur jr which is exactly my vibe. It's like they made this coffee place for me. My usual go to is the white mocha at most places I go, and they do it the absolute best here. However their seasonal drinks are great too. As of late, I've been getting their Kurogoma latte, which is also fantastic. Absolutely try this place out if you haven't. 5/5 stars.

Parking is somewhat limited, but people were coming and going frequently. Really cool vibe inside with a high, industrial ceiling and lots of glass and light. You can see the coffee roasting taking place as you sit at one of the many tables and counter (there's also outside seating with a nice, open view). I came hoping to eat, but the food options were pretty limited. I think I just saw a breakfast sandwich and a few things in the pastry case. Although the coffee menu is extensive, I'm not a huge coffee drinker and was about to leave empty-handed when I saw the ad for the Coconut Ube Matcha. Everything about that sounded delicious. I was even happier when I ordered and saw the barista hand mixing the matcha (since at some places these flavors can be a pre-mix from a can). Wow, the matcha and the housemade coconut ube syrup did not disappoint. One of the best crafted tea drinks I've had. So good, it kinda made my morning. Will definitely be back!
