Coffee Shop: Dreamer’s Coffeehouse and Deli

Location: Reno, Nevada

Drink: Latte

Drinker: Seth Daire

I spent a month in Reno this summer, though not all at once. Four times in point of fact. When working during the week, I actually opted for lesser coffees for their caffiene content, especially the days I awoke at 5am, which is too early for a night owl.

I stayed at the Eldorado in downtown Reno most of the time. They have slot machines, lots of slot machines, and tables, and other boring gambling peraphanalia. My first week there, I saw someone get arrested outside of the hotel, and that really didn’t encourage me to explore too much. My second to the last day of the fourth week I was there, I realized something. Less than four blocks from my hotel is a riverfront district that is very cool and trendy. The river walk is quite nice. Did I mention it was only four blocks away all this time?

My last day in Reno, I had some time, so I decided to walk on down. I was looking for a place to eat, though I didn’t know what to look for. What I found was Dreamer’s Coffeehouse and Deli, with a patio on the waterfront. I ordered a panini and a 16 oz latte. The panini was above average for a coffee house, with Brie and turkey.

The latte was acceptably good, the staff friendly, and the decor quite cool. Art and couches were in one area, a bookshelf in another. After lunch, I took my latte and walked along the river for a bit. For the location alone, it’s worth the trip.
