On a lunch work whim my coworker and I decided to go with Great Basin Co-op. I have passed by this restaurant plenty of times and was super excited to try it. I think the establishment is so neat, the upper balcony area must have some of the best views. The menu seemed to have a great variety of food options available. I settled upon the Turkey Bacon Avocado, it sounded amazing but what I received was disappointing. It was chunks of turkey and the majority of the bacon was soggy and uneatable. I made the best of it, but most of the dish went uneaten. I did enjoy the salad with the flowers. The establishment had a busy lunchtime flow. Good for them, just not a place I will plan to come back to try again. read more

This place is currently CLOSED. They are currently performing construction in the area, and it is affecting the cafe only. There are still pre-packaged food items and prepared burritos, soups, and cookies available for sale downstairs. Expected reopen is this summer. When it is reopen I shall return again! Until then, 5 stars all around for the last 8 years of me going to this place :) This place is a vibe, straight up. The whole upstairs area of the Co Op got remodeled to host more people and make it more friendly for those that like to hang around for that coffee shop vibe. Their outdoor patio is so fun and wonderful when it gets warmer out and opens up for the season. The ordering process is a lot more straightforward now; you get a buzzer after ordering and walk up to the other side of the counter to receive your food. My favorite thing over the last year has been their smoothie bowls. The peanut honey drizzle keeps me coming back and I'm excited to try it again once they are open! Their burritos and sandwiches have also been wonderful and tasty! read more

Delicious, organic, healthy lunch spot. The Co Op has this cute little cafe upstairs. First time here. The staff is very welcoming and friendly. Love the open concept it's airy and bright. I had a Vegan Jiros dream sushi bowl. It was so delicious. The tamari roasted carrots are so bomb. Who knows carrots can taste so good. My friend had a turkey grilled sandwich. Looks delicious. read more

I stopped in for a quick sandwich in the late afternoon. It was about 230 and the only downside was they were closing up the shop and only to-go orders were available, which was fine. The cashier was very friendly and very outgoing. I told her to order me her favorite sandwich and this one was hers. She said this is the sandwich that made her work there. All in all the sandwich had a lot of weight to it, the turkey was very unique, and the bacon was good. I very much enjoyed this $20 sandwich, face palm. read more

Foodshed Cafe - Turkey bacon avo on perren sourdough - Cafes Near Me - Reno, Nevada

My first experience with Foodshed Cafe was about a 3 star. I didn't get to order anything because a lot of customers were standing by the cash register, waiting for their order. I went upstairs to see if the Grab N Go burritos were still around (they are not). I also wanted to ask a question, but it wasn't possible with the crowd. My blood sugar was getting low, so I had to leave. I returned about a week later. There was no one in line and I got to ask my question. The staff was so polite and helpful. I was able to order some burritos to take home to family. And the food was absolutely delicious !!! The cafe was clean and quiet. Even the patio looked good. It will take some time to adjust, but this place is wonderful! They have a salad bar and there is some Grab N Go items downstairs in the co-op. The menu selection is abundant! I knew I wanted burritos but otherwise I would have had a hard time deciding. There is some baked goods too! And I believe kombucha. Truly love this place. read more

So exciting that the Foodshed Cafe opened on the second floor of the Great Basin Food Coop. I met a friend for lunch on the patio today and we got a Fig-elangelo sandwich (me) and Cowboy Delight bowl (her). I was really excited about the sandwich but ended up wishing I had gotten a bowl too. The Fig-elangelo promises cheddar, house-whipped chive goat cheese, caramelized onions, housemade fig jam, stone ground mustard, and arugula. What I got was mostly big blobs of the whipped goat cheese, which was tasty but completely overwhelming and extremely messy. The goat cheese was everywhere. I wanted lots more fig jam on there and an actual mix of all promised flavors. The onions were plentiful but not very caramelized. Also, it took a very long time to come out - my friend and several other tables who ordered after me got their food first, and I even checked on it at a certain point. They give you a buzzer so you go collect your food when it's ready. My friend enjoyed her Cowboy Delight but the portion was pretty small. It was ready quickly at least! Long before my sandwich. The patio is a great outdoor space but some shade would be ideal. There was tons of seating inside so if I really needed out of the sun, I could have opted for that, but it is only going to get hotter... So basically I was underwhelmed. They did open very very recently and I am sure have some things to sort out (the salad bar was apparently broken, too, and not available). I will maybe go back and try some other things- when I have plenty of time to wait and lots of sunblock on (or sit inside. But I love a good patio!). Oh and it took a long time to order/wait our turn to order. It's new and quite an extensive menu with so many options for customization- people ahead of us did a whole lot of asking and choosing and I totally get that, just wish I hadn't come on my lunch break. I do feel like you should be able to go to lunch for a sandwich or bowl and comfortably get your food and eat it in an hour. read more

Great space with pops of color and warm woods and lots of natural light. The menu is wholesome and fresh and the pumpkin smoothie bowl I had was aesthetically pleasing and tastebud tantalizing! It took a little bit to get the bowl, but service was friendly and the gal taking my order had no qualms about explaining different items. There is a decent amount of seating outside under a shade cover as well as indoors. After you eat, go grab something from the natural foods store on the bottom floor! read more

It's not cheap, and it can be a bit of a wait for food sometimes... but it's always worth it! Real, local ingredients you can feel good about putting in your body while also feeling good about supporting local business. Very nice ambiance - I like to sit out on the upstairs deck on sunny days/mornings :) read more

It is always a great place to eat. Anytime is a good time to get a bite here.

I love this place! Friendly people and awesome food. I got the bees knees sunshine bowl and it was absolutely delicious. This place is upstairs from the food co-op where I got a power green juice and the soup of the day which was sausage, potato, kale and they both were equally delicious as the smoothie bowl. New favorite place to shop and eat. read more

We've been coming here for a while but I mostly just get mint tea, which would make for a pretty boring review now wouldn't it? While I can attest that their local mint and mint rose teas are in fact wonderful and rank pretty high on my favorite things there is so much more to this cute little café than just tea. Cozy, warm atmosphere that welcomes you in and invites you to stay a while is what you notice first. Then the employee's who are very friendly and quick to help, smile and ask for your order. Amongst the allergy and preference friendly food I promise you will find something wonderful, local and wholesome to treat yourself to. This time it was goat toast and a breakfast burrito both of which hit the spot and fueled us forward for our busy day. Please come here. Stay for a while. Relax and enjoy some delicious food. read more

First time here since the Foodshed Cafe opened on the 2nd Floor of Great Basin Food Co-op. The girl that took my order was really friendly and welcoming. The place also has plenty of seating options, which would be perfect for lunch with friends or to sit for a while with Coffee and a book. Today I didn't have much time, so I opted for a Pumpkin Latte and a Salted Chocolate Chip Cookie. Both were really yummy. The Pumpkin Latte was made with a locally made Puree and was sweetened to perfection. It could have been hotter, but that is an easy fix for next time. I was really impressed with my first visit here and look forward to returning for lunch very soon! read more

This is the Definition of have it your way I have a few food allergies and they are completely amenable to modifying food to meet your dietary restrictions. I have been here twice. I have had a bowl as well as the burrito and they are outstanding. You can even add a glass of wine or beer to your lunch . It has a nice outside and they finally added a covering so that you're not in the glaring sun. I highly recommend it for lunch. read more

Foodshed Cafe - CauliWally veggie burriti - Cafes Near Me - Reno, Nevada

I've only eaten here once but was disappointed... the food took a very long time to come out and the two to-go dishes came out at very different times. Unfortunately my friend's burrito was very soggy from the salad dressing in the to go box (why wasn't it in its own little cup?) I'd like to go back and give them another shot however, I do appreciate their efforts in offering fresh healthy food. read more

Delicious food in a fun friendly healthy environment! Rock-star employee ARGLYE gave me permission to take and post photos. My "build your own bowl" is simply DELIGHTFUL. If you live in Reno, please join the co-op that Foodshed is part of. Downstairs there is a grocery store (also part of a co-op.) I will post a separate (glowing!) review under the name of the grocery store. read more

Friendly service. Fair prices. Nice outdoor elevated eating area as well as plenty of indoor tables as well. Good food, great coffee.

Our party of six all loved our lunches at Foodshed Cafe! The turkey in the sandwiches tasted freshly roasted, the ingredients in the bowls combine a great mix of textures and flavors. Everything so fresh! Service was fast and super friendly. Walk around and you'll see information about where the food is sourced. It was too windy to sit on the deck but we'll definitely enjoy it on a non windy day. Go downstairs and shop the co-op market. Love this place! read more
