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.

What a cool place?…read more Whenever we are out and about and checking out new things, we always try to find some good local coffee. We took the kids to Genoa and after wanted to warm up a bit. This coffee place has always been one that we've seen whenever we've driven out of town to go to SoCal and always said "we need to check this place out someday". Super glad that we finally did, I got a peppermint latte and the wife got a toffee latte. They even have locally made ice cream and the kids enjoyed chocolate brownie, and cookies and cream. The lattes were both great flavored and really well made with beans brewed from Old World Coffee (Reno) beans. Which is our favorite roaster in the area. Honestly with our travels out of state and internationally, we found that Old World has the best roasted beans around. There's plenty of space in the main part of the coffee shop and a side room with a community table and even an area for kids to play and read books. I wish we had a good coffee place like this in the Sparks area. This will definitely be a staple when we're in town.

Even on the rare occasion when my drink wasn't quite what I expected, they've always fixed it quickly and without any hassle, which really says a lot about how much they care about their customers. What stands out the most to me is how they treat my mom when she stops in for her coffee. They're always so patient and kind with her, and that warmth means more than I can really put into words. Great coffee is easy to find, but a place that makes people feel valued and cared for--that's something special. Coffee on Main truly does that.

Recommend the BLT; thickness and flavor bacon was perfect! Cold pastrami was a good quality meat. Note: only the fries come standard sandwiches. The other sides (onion rings, cup soup) are $2.00 upgrade. We tried the apricot coffee cake ($12.45). It was good (fresh and moist) but couldn't find anything special. I would have expected more pieces of the fruit .

Last time, I saw a signboard in the drive-thru advertising quiches, which I'd never realized they sold! I ordered the tomato feta version, and it was delectable.

I think some people really just like to complain about every little thing... Me? I'm a mug half-full kinda gal. If you're unhappy with your purchase or experience, it's always best policy to kindly let your barista know and give them a chance to get your order/experience right.

I wanted some breakfast without having to go to an IHOP or Denny's. The place is TINY. Mostly 2-top tables and a handful of booths and bar seating. If you are seated at a regular table, expect to be friendly with the guests next to you. It's such tight quarters that you can't help but start having conversations with the people next to you. I got the pork chops with eggs and hash browns. You get 2 decent sized bone-in pork chops. They were well seasoned and juicy. Really good. My son got a pancake from the kid's menu that was shaped like a Mickey Mouse head. It was huge. I got a sausage patty to go with it. This was the only sub-par item as it was dry and lifeless. I feel like it was sitting on the flat top or under a heat lamp for hours. It wasn't worth eating. Other than that, the food we had over all was good. The service was OK. The morning we went, it seemed like there was only 1 server for the entire restaurant. She was taking orders,serving, AND bussing tables. So, the quality of service wasn't the best. She was rushed. Glad I was able to try a local spot.

You really have to look. Or you will gonna miss turning into it because it's in a very small plaza. There is a sign outside that says Cowboys Café, but you really gotta kind of look for it. This morning, as we were eating there, I was thinking that this place reminds me of an old style truckstop. You walk in and it's a real western flavor. There's a bar seating and booth seating and tables. The walls are decorated with different kinds of rifles and all kinds of different western style decorations, which is really cool. You're always greeted warmly by the staff. The place gets pretty packed at times, especially on Sundays. But we always seem to get a seat. If we wait it's not usually a very long wait and the food is very much worth the wait. I've been slowly working my way through the menu since we've been coming here. I've had the chicken fried steak. I've had the pancakes. I believe we've even stopped in there for lunch and I had a really good cheeseburger. I've also tried the chili. That is very good. This morning I tried the linguiça with eggs and man it was amazing. They have the best home fries anywhere. The coffee is always good and it's strong the way I like it. So if you haven't been in here, you need to get in here and give these guys a try and I guarantee you'll be coming back.

More like, 3.5 stars…read more The ambiance is great. Located in the heart of "downtown" Genoa, you get amazing views of the mountains and that quaint small town vibe. Customer service has been super friendly and sweet. You feel welcome as soon as you walk in. A unique feature they have is a little play room in the back for your kids. It's rare to find these in food establishments, but is a God send when you have a squirmy toddler that won't allow you to have a peaceful meal. Why 3.5 stars? Because the the quality and creativity of food is lacking for the price charged. Menu items are extremely basic. I tried the breakfast tacos, croissant boat, honeycomb waffle, honey nut latte, and cowgirl latte spread out during 2 different visits. As far as the food, there really isn't anything unique or special about the items. Literally, just scrambled eggs with bacon or Canadian bacon mixed in. For the tacos, you get 2 per order ($8.00) My husband wanted one with bacon crumbles and one with Canadian bacon. For something that I assumed is made to order, they could not accommodate. They could only do 1 kind of protein per order which made no sense. Scramble 1 egg, add bacon, scramble another egg, add Canadian bacon. Add to each taco shell. Done. My husband ended up ordering 2 separate orders just so he could have both proteins. The honeycomb waffle is also served pretty basic. For the price you get 1 waffle for $10. For an extra $1.00 you can get berries on it. See photo for the $1.00 worth of berries you get. For the amount of berries they put on it, it should be included in the $10. Or charge $14 and pile on the fruit! The waffle already comes drowning in syrup which made it soggy and too sweet. I've only had flavored lattes here and I find them to be too sweet. Maybe just a regular unflavored latte would taste better. The food and ambiance do not match. If the food was more imaginative, unique (like the decor), and more "gourmet-ish", the prices would be justified.
