If my order had been correct to begin with it would have been 4 stars, but when you merely scrape off the topping that I ordered without, that is completely unacceptable. You have no idea what allergies people may have. ---- so arrived around 10 am on a Sunday to a line out the door, it took about 25 minutes to get to the front. I ordered the breakfast tacos with no pico and no guac repeating that I just wanted the meat cheese and egg, and the woman taking my order repeated it. The receipt reflected the correct order (no pico, extra cheese, etc) Food came out approximately 15 minutes later and I opened the styrofoam box to reveal pico de gallo plopped on top of my two tacos. I immediately told the guy bringing the food out that they weren't supposed to have pico, and he took them back. He then called out the tacos no pico pretty quickly and I took them outside to my table, opened them... seeing cilantro and some onions leftover. So, you just scraped it off? I'm just so shocked at this. I understand it's busy but you cannot cut corners like this. I paid for this meal so it's very confusing. My husband then took them back and brought out the correct tacos. These tacos were good. Pulled pork, eggs, cheese. They didn't skimp on ingredients. The homemade corn tortillas were great. As I said, it would have been 4 stars had they not thought it was appropriate to just scrape it off the top. I DO think it would be worth it to give them another chance, it is clearly a popular place. Dog friendly patio.
Not the worst but definitely quite underwhelmed. I had the tree house burrito which comes with a choice of either bacon or sausage, eggs, tater tots, and cheddar cheese. I chose sausage as my meat, and the burrito ended up being 80% egg, 10% sausage, and 10% cheese and tater tot. The flavor is on the bland side and the burrito was also so oily. They give a side of salsa for free but it just tasted like tomato sauce without much flavor. The eggs were at least very fluffy and cooked well. The workers are very friendly here. My food took about 10-15 minutes to come out. The inside of the shop is small but cozy, and they have a few spots outdoor. Also the small beach next door is a nice spot to enjoy your food at. Overall: 2.3/5
Cute little cafe in North Tahoe with great breakfast burritos and decent coffee. Great vibes in there from the staff. My group shared a bunch of burritos - bacon, sausage, tri tip (+$1), and brisket. But my favorite was brisket because it was most flavorful. Tri tip was surprisingly bland. Bacon and sausage were solid. They put yummy tater tots inside that were perfectly cooked - crispy outside fluffy inside. We also got pico de gallo and guacamole on the side. The guac was more citrusy which was perfect to cut through the heaviness of the burritos.
Quite busy on a Saturday brunch. My party of 5 found seating in the backyard patio. We shared 4 burritos: bacon, sausage, brisket, and tri-tip. Our favorite was the brisket. The tri-tip was interesting because it wasn't smoked and didn't have that bbq char taste. It felt like it was boiled and unseasoned. We got guacamole and pico de gallo on the side which was the move because it added more acidity and flavor to the burritos. Also got the hot chocolate which didn't have much chocolate flavor and was very watery/milky.
There was a very long line to this place but went extremely fast. All workers were on it and very kind at the same time which i love! The waffle was really good and my boyfriend enjoyed his plate. Also I ordered a chai latte which was okay but not bad. There are many seats spread in the front of the cafe, inside, and in the back. I loved the decorations too!
When traveling especially in popular tourist places, it's always a toss up between something that is good and overpriced or something not so good and overpriced. Well, at the Tree House Cafe, you can have something good and at a fair price We were visiting Kings Beach for the afternoon on a whim and other than drinks weren't really prepared for lunch. This place's menu looked good plus they had outdoor and patio seating since we had our dog. It was hot out and they allowed well behaved dogs INSIDE with the cooler air. I had the loaded tater tots with creamy Mac and cheese topped with brisket. My son had the tri tip sandwich. The portions were large. I split my tots with my wife and we still had to take some home. My son only finished half. Anytime you order tots, the base has to be crispy with potatoe-y insides. This place delivered on that, plus the mac and cheese added a level of creaminess that paired well with the savory brisket. The brisket was BBQed with out too much sauce, this allowed the smokiness of the meat to come through and not be overwhelmed by the other ingredients. So overall, a winner in my book. I can't honestly say anything about the sandwich because I didn't try any of it. Maybe next time. But if facial reaction counts. My son was smiling .
Breakfast burrito slappedddd, soo good. Ate it after a long run and it hit soo hard. Brown sugar oat milk latte also good and almost croissant amazing. Loved this place
Staying next door and I've got to say, the coffee and pastries are fantastic. Iced vanilla latte, cinnamon roll, blueberry puff pastry, breakfast burritos, all 10/10. Great morning stop before the beach!
Shared the breakfast plate with the hubby which came with 3 scrambled eggs, tater tots, sausage and toast. It was an ample serving but the tots were room temp. Also got a spinach croissant which also would have tasted better if it were heated. Enjoyed my coconut matcha.
Nice place we're staying at the motel right behind with less than a minute walk. They have weird hours on Monday so watch out for that pretty friendly service and good coffee and comfortable seating.
Long line expected for a Sunday morning on Labor Day weekend. Inside feels welcoming and cozy. We ordered coffee, burritos, and a pastry. They were out early of their two pumpkin special drinks, but the cinnamon latte and honey & hazelnut cold brew were great. The burritos were ok, but the tater tots made them a bit too greasy; other than that, they tasted good. The biscuits were dry even with all the gravy. Now the sticky bun, that was definitely the highlight. It's got nice caramelized pecans. We were fortunate to get a seat on their back patio, so we were able to try everything there and then.
Solid cup of coffee! I got a hot white mocha on a snowy day and it totally hit the spot. It was not to sweet. Some of the mocha sauce went to the bottom (happens at any shop, no problem) so I stirred the drink. Service was super fast and I barely had time to admire the Christmastime lego scene featured on the table inside. There are so many details to notice! I'll be back next time I'm in Tahoe.
Staying in Kings Beach, the coffee options were Tree House Cafe and another place. We took a gamble and went with the former (obviously, that's why I'm here). We found the space inside to be nice and cozy. They also have an outdoor seating area in the front as well as the back. The service was exceptionally friendly. I heard mixed things about the breakfast burritos, so I stayed away from my usual bacon. Instead, I did the brisket burrito. Eggs, brisket, tater tots, and cheddar cheese in a stretchy steamed tortilla. They have cholula packets but no homemade salsa. I found the burrito much better than I was expecting. It's a bit heavy handed on the eggs, but I prefer it that way. To me it was pretty close to a perfect ratio of eggs, meat, and potato. The brisket was a tad chewy but I didn't mind that, I found it overall flavorful and not too hard to eat. As said above, the tortilla is steamed but not toasted. I personally prefer my breakfast burritos this way as well. And it was a great size too. On the expensive side, but we're in Tahoe so... I enjoyed my iced decaf americano, a drink many would usually find unenjoyable. Their decaf coffee was actually really good (and the staff reassured me of that too). I will knock it down to 4 stars because my wife said her vanilla latte was just okay. Come for the coffee, stay for the burrito. We will be back if this is a convenient stop for us in Tahoe, but won't go out of our way for it. However, if it's close it's definitely worth a try. read more

Ordered a breakfast burrito with eggs, tater tots, bacon, and sausage and there's barely any bacon and no sausage at all in my burrito. They kind of ripped me off when it comes to the meat. It's mainly all egg in the burrito. Quality is good tho. Pretty bland and unflavored. read more
The Smokey burrito here offered a flavorful bbq take on a breakfast burrito! We stood in line in this petite casual cafe for a bit on Memorial Day weekend for these hearty burritos. Staff was friendly with their recommendations, and they try to get their drinks out quickly. The outdoor seating make for a great lounging spot to enjoy brunch. read more

The Treehouse is a fan favorite! Really good coffee, great breakfast burritos, and a super friendly vibe! This mom and pop is conveniently located on the main highway ringing the lake. Plenty of street parking, but not much of a dedicated lot. I highly recommend the breakfast burritos. The tiptip or the pulled pork are serious winners. They're pretty large for the price, and the eggs and goodies are overflowing the hot tortilla. It comes wrapped in foil, so use a fork to rescue the spillage. The coffee was good too. Cold mocha was great, not too sweet. They have oatmeal and soy. Don't miss the Lego tree house near the cash register. You can tell someone put love and care. Very friendly service despite the big touristy rush. Great energy! read more
First timers here, won't be the last one, glad they are close to Carnelian Bay We went out looking for breakfast, kudos to being open on New Year day ! You order at the counter, customer service with a great attitude , despite being busy, our orders came out quickly and we were able to find a sit inside the small cafe Our breakfast burritos were delicious , we got the Tree House burritos Good neighborhood addition to the Westside Warm , cozy atmosphere : ambiance read more
We had a great time here! We were looking for a quick breakfast stop and we found this very cozy place! The food also has caught our attention! We got the breakfast burrito and it was one of the best so far! We will be back for the brisket Burrito ! The staff were very friendly and was pleasing to be with! The prices for the drinks were a little bit too high but other than that the food is amazing! Highly recommend it for people that will come and visit! read more
My go to coffee spot in North Lake that I can walk to from the golf course. This review is only for their coffee as I've never gotten food but it all looks scrumptious. Coming in before 9am seems to be the trick as every time I'm in line to order, about 10 more people come in as this is a very popular spot so be ready for a wait with the line out the front door. Inside is cabin decorated with a great soundtrack always playing, patios out back is secluded with 5 heavy picnic tables and a children's table, the front patio is right on the street next to their smoker which is going right when they open so be prepared for some smoky goodness to increase your appetite and order. THC all the way! read more

Food was pretty good! I got a trip tip sandwich, which was AMAZING. My bf got a chicken sandwich, which was above average. I also got a lavender latte. Vibes are chill and relaxing. People are also nice here. There was a mix up with my latte (someone took my latte by accident and left theirs behind) and they were kind enough to remake it for me. Would definitely want to come back to try their breakfast or dinner next time. read more

They are always so nice here, no matter how long the line. And the food is always so delicious read more
I ordered the breakfast burrito with sausage. It's was bomb.com! Would definitely recommend, 5/5 on the burrito. My sister ordered the coconut chai iced coffee. It was heavy on the sweet side and the coffee flavor got lost. My sister also said the house sandwich was a little dry. Definitely go for the burrito! read more
Tree House Cafe is small little cafe to get breakfast at. The cashiers were friendly and nice. The food was simple and did the job. They have a variety of the breakfast options including some vegetarian options along with their drinks and small pastries. The items are all served to go style, and there is indoor seating but it's minimal. While nothing stood out for me, I enjoyed my coffee and breakfast burrito. read more
Short walk from kings beach to here. Stopped in for coffee before we hit the sand for the day. Counter service with seating inside and out. Was relativity busy the day we were in but they got our drinks out with no delay. Restrooms for customer only. Parking on the street. read more

We decided to have breakfast at Tree House Café in Kings Beach, and the ambiance is really cute. Inside, there are tons of LEGO cities on display (which my son loved!), plenty of indoor warm seating, and it's a great spot for kids. They offer a wide variety of food options, and the coffee was really good. My husband ordered the basic breakfast plate, and my son had the waffles. The waffles were okay and a little dry. Unfortunately, they forgot my veggie burrito, and when I went up to ask, they said the ticket had been lost, which was a bit of a bummer. However, they remade my order right away and kindly gave us a scone as an apology, which was a really nice touch. The eggs were some of the best we've ever had. Despite the small hiccup, we'd definitely recommend this spot. read more

Baby i don't know why this place has 4.1 stars. I went to this place cause there was so money good reviews. First of all the line was out the door so crowded and the space is so small, everything felt so squished. When we finally got to the front to order the worker acted like it was her first day on earth, to be honest EVERYONE DID. I was like "can i get a chai latte?" "Okay one dirty latte" " No i said just a regular chai" "Chai? We don't have that" We stare blankly at each other, "Oh okay chai" Like what the hell? She acted really slow and clueless too. After that we wait for our food and drinks. 1. My friend orders their $10 waffles and she gets these measly pieces of waffles with TWO SLICES OF BANANA AND NO SYRUP. We go to the front to ask for maple syrup THE GUY IS F*king CLUELESS. Maple syrup we don't have that we have maple spice.... Hello how do you serve waffles and don't have maple syrup? After like 3 minutes of talking to him he finally is like ohhhhh okay let me get that for you, and he finally brings out the maple syrup, like wtf!!! Omg okay then after we ask for water, they're super dismissive and point to a bucket, a literally bucket and the bucket was empty like wtf!! 3. I'm black and they literally put all lives matter on my cup !! I feel targeted. 4. It's literally impossible to eat there because it's infested with wasp who attack your food. Also lastly it's a waste of money everything is super expensive and the service is super slow. My drink was okay tasted like oatmeal a bit, my friend got a pumpkin spice latte and it didn't even taste like pumpkin spice latte anyways i'm done i wouldn't recommend to go there. read more

Fresh delicious breakfast! There was a very long line, but honestly worth the wait. Loved the legos collection inside. I ordered a ham and cheese, and an Americano coffee. What made this even more satisfying was eating it right on the beach. What a great ambiance to enjoy my breakfast. read more

What a great place for a cold drink on a hot day! We were driving through Kings Beach looking for a parking spot when I spotted Tree House Cafe and I just knew we would be stopping by. Once we found some parking and spent some time on the sand we meandered over for an afternoon pick me up. It was a good choice for sure! We quickly made ourselves comfortable on their shady patio although the open air seating area looked amazing. I had an Iced Chai that was just to die for, sweet and satiating. My husband had their Hibiscus Lemonade which he loved and I have to say it was perfection. He even talked several other people into trying it! This is def the place to wind down after a day at the beach or on the slopes. read more
We decided to get a quick breakfast to go, as we were hungry, but wanted to get back to Sac. The inside is a very relaxed vibe, with a clientele that seemingly will be happy with their coffee drinks and pastry concoctions. I'm more a savory type, and although "linited," their menu holds up. The clerk asked Mr if I wanted "hot food." Wheb I asked of the eggs were actually scrambled or just microwaved, she laughed, said they cook everything to order, and agreed with me microwaved eggs are disgusting. I ordered my wife a breakfast burrito, and they let me customize a breakfast bagel (scrambled eggs, cheese, and EXTRA cream cheese) A for customer service. The actually bagel sandwich hit the spot. It was essentially a mini cheese omelet cooked perfectly on a bagel, with two sides of cream cheese to slather on. While my wife wishes they hadn't cut her burrito in half (harder to eat in the car), she admitted it was quite tasty. A little pricy ($25+ for a breakfast burrito and a bagel sandwich), but if I lived near here, I no doubt would get my same bagel sandwich a few times a week. A perfect breakfast sandwich in all things that are defined as breakfast sandwiches. Strongly recommend for their breakfast options... read more
