    Traditional toast
    Mary H.

    The coffee beans are available bagged for purchase. I find whatever blend they are using for the espresso beverages to be too strong for my preference in the sense that I feel like it delivers too much caffeine to my system and I don't like the buzzy feeling. So, this time, I order a smaller size beverage, and drank water as well along with food. The Burrata Toast is my favorite of what I've tried so far. I made the toast a finger food this time (averting plastic knife risk). I asked and was told metal utensils are not an option; they only offer plastic. Customer service was very good again.

    Protein Matcha
    Sergio P.

    Gave Founders Cafe a go and it was ok. They were out of many ingredients to make 3 drink I wanted to try. But the matcha I went with was good. Ordered another drink and the protein was all sitting at the bottom not mixed well. Not sure if they were just in a rush or just didn't care. Would not be a spot I'd recommend to my coffee lovers.

    2 Blueberry Banana Split Lattes

    Founders popped up on my tik tok & anythg blueberry Im in. Win #1, they open before 8am. Cute place on Durango and what a surprise of how good this drink was. It sounded like it would be alot but it was surprisingly delightful. Not too sweet and the coffee was definitely good. We WILL return

    Super easy to find right off Durango.

    I got to tell you, I can say nothing bad about Founders Coffee. Just like their other establishment in Henderson, this place has it all. Style, great coffee, amazing food, decor, and really good service people. The place is super easy to find, you won't be able to miss it when you're driving down. Durango. Just a short jog into a parking lot and you'll find the place. They also have plenty of outside seating which is nice in the morning as it shades you. From the hot Nevada Sun. The Durango location differs from the other location in that the vibe and artwork are totally different, but both have the same quality high level of service and standards. The Durango location has a big long chalkboard on the firewall that has plenty of things to look at while you're waiting for your food or while you're eating. I will say this, Founders really has an emphasis on customer service. The people there know their stuff, are fun, friendly, and willing to make great suggestions. As with both locations, I have not seen a single person working behind the calendar that wasn't energetic, talkative, and glad to be there. In this day and age where customer service really seems to be lacking, Founders kicks it up a notch by raising the bar. I ordered a toffee latte, and it was absolutely delicious. Definitely a sweet morning drink, so be forewarned. You will have a rush not only from the caffeine but from the sugar content! The thing I like most about this place is their sandwiches are huge. Did I say huge? Let me emphasize this again, HUGE!! I ordered the deluxe croissant which had egg, sliced turkey, avocado, cheese, lettuce, and this amazing garlic aioli. I think I said this before, but the garlic aioli should be a controlled substance... It is that good! Bottom line? If you are ever over off Durango and are looking for a quick pick me up or a great meal to start your day, Founders coffee is the place to be.

    Iced Mocha with almond milk
    Lillian D.

    My husband and I just stopped by on a whim, I had the iced Toffee Bar coffee and it was incredible!!! Sweet, caffeinated, absolutely perfect. My husband got the iced Mocha with almond milk but originally asked for it to be less sweet (drink on the left) but realized it didn't taste right... he'd had their coffee the day before at their other location. The team was so nice they offered to remake him one for free which was so sweet of them. Like I said, mine was perfect and his second drink was perfect as well.

    Loaded Açaí
    Tasha C.

    Still a Founders fan, even if this visit had a few hiccups. I've always enjoyed Founders Coffee and have probably dined here three or four times, but for some reason never got around to writing a review. This visit was actually my first time at this particular location. I was running a little short on time, so I decided to use the drive-through. I think there may have been some issues with the microphone system because ordering was a bit difficult, but I was eventually able to place my order. I ordered an Americano and the deluxe croissant sandwich, and for my daughter an iced original matcha and an açai bowl. The line itself wasn't very long, but the wait time ended up being much longer than expected. When I reached the window to pay, there seemed to be an issue with their computer system and I actually had to re-order everything again at the window in order for the payment to go through. I'm also a Founders Coffee app user, and I had enough points to redeem a free pastry. I love their cherry yogurt danish, but unfortunately I wasn't able to redeem it at the window and was told it had to be done through the app, which was a little confusing since that's what I was trying to do. As for the food and drinks: The Americano was hot and tasted great. It's not my usual order, but the coffee quality here is always solid. The açai bowl ended up being a bit disappointing. They had run out of blueberries and strawberries, and since I had already been waiting a while I just asked them to make it with bananas. My daughter also thought a few other ingredients might have been missing as well, including the peanut butter. The deluxe croissant sandwich had a really delicious, buttery croissant with great flavor, but it was served cold instead of warm, which surprised me. The matcha, however, was actually very good when I tasted it. Overall, I really do enjoy Founders Coffee and under most circumstances I'd easily give them five stars. This visit just seemed like one of those days where they were working through a few operational hiccups. Because of the wait time, missing ingredients, and the app issue with the pastry, I'm giving four stars for this visit. That said, I'll definitely be back because when everything is running smoothly, Founders Coffee is one of my favorite local coffee spots.

    A little late to post a review since we were here in February but here it is anyway. I've never been so happy about seeing an ad on IG! The post was about their deviled eggs and my sister loves them so we stopped in. Of course I didn't get a picture of the one thing we came here for but trust me when I say she enjoyed them. We also ordered the Loaded Overnight Oats and a couple beverages but we don't remember what we ordered anymore. Definitely recommend giving this place a try if you're in the area!

    Butterfly Palmer

    I randomly was craving a bagel, and this place came up on my UberEats. They had a BOGO sale and I also ordered their Butterfly Palmer. This is one of the BEST drinks I've ever ordered. Not too sweet, not too sour...WOW! Y'all have earned yourself a new customer

    White chocolate mac nut matcha flight can

    Drinks were yummy, and food was delicious. My son ordered a the protein bites, liked it so much he ordered more. We also ordered the matcha flight to go and the cans were super cute.

    Founders Coffee is a drive-thru coffee establishment with a spacious dine-in area perfect for getting work done. I was drawn to their matcha, coffee, and toast flight options; I opted for the former since I didn't need too much caffeine that day. They didn't have a seasonal flight but was told it would be available 2/1/26 so I got a DIY matcha flight instead consisting of banana matcha, honeybun, dubai strawberry, lavender white. For $16, I think that's a fair price. In general, I thought that the matcha drinks had a huge gap in quality based on flavor profile. Lavender white (4.5/5): Light, airy, and a great combination. Honeybun (3/5): Cinnamon was apparent, but didn't get honey or condensed milk notes. Banana matcha (2.5/5): I wished they have banana syrup in matcha and not just banana foam. Dubai strawberry (2/5): A bit too sweet, and the large amounts of strawberry syrup overwhelms the more subtle flavors of pistachio and chocolate. Overall, despite looking good on paper, I understand why Founders have a mixed rating. I definitely felt like their matcha lattes were not made equally delicious, and it was a hit-or-miss for me. Still, I was happy to have had tried their flights and would be down to order their lavender white matcha latte again.

    My friend and I stopped in to grab a drink and chit chat. It was a pretty quiet day with a handful of tables taken. We ordered our drinks and wait about 5-10 mins for our orders. She ordered the banana & matcha drink, but only tasted matcha. She was disappointed in the lack of banana flavor. I had ordered a chai tea hot, and received it iced. The drink itself was very milk forward and very little chai flavor. We double checked the labels and our orders were correct on them. I personally won't be returning. The interior was clean, and staff were friendly... but attention to detail.. not so much.

    Avocado Toast & Deluxe Croissant
    Kimmy A.

    Decided to dine in at Founders for the first time because I wanted to try a coffee flight. I guess I didn't get a picture bc my phone glitched out -_- but we tried the Dubai chocolate strawberry, banana, white chocolate macadamia, and the honey bun. I liked the white chocolate macadamia best - Dubai came in a close second. My 1.5 year old wanted a drink too so they made him a small strawberry milk. We also got the deluxe croissant and avocado toast. The croissants are massive. Bigger than my kid's face! The avocado toast had some kind of delicious sauce on it. Everything came out quickly after we ordered. I also ended up getting my son a cake pop before we left. Seating inside is definitely more ideal for small businesses meetings or meeting a few friends for coffee, not so much for parents wanting to get some breakfast and coffee - but what coffee shop is? Lol. We made it work tho & the staff was very kind to us and our baby.

    Love the coffee flights!
    Brittany C.

    Oh my yum! Their coffee (and food menu) is so extensive and tasty. Love the variety. Can't get this anywhere else. They have a drive through and adorable in door dining spot. Inside is cute and has a nice grass wall and some fun founders writings on the walls. Very aesthetically pleasing. Their drinks have more espresso shots than Starbucks so you get a good bang for your buck here. I ordered a large Americano and didn't realize it had four espresso shots until after I ordered it. I was certainly buzzing after this! LOL Tried the nutty pumpkin americano for a fall treat. Was very strong with a hint of subtle taste; just how I like my coffee. They have so many other fun menu items that I want to try and even serve coffee flights. Their to go cups are cute and say "hello gorgeous!" A nice touch. Service was fast and efficient. Nothing too friendly or amazing here, but they were busy when I was there. Can't wait to come back and try more.

This is one of those places where they flip the tablet around to ask for an upfront tip before any service is even rendered. After ordering, we were given a number, which led us to assume our food would be brought to the table. Instead, our order just sat on the counter for a while because the chef/cook called it out so quietly we could barely hear it. When we realized it was sitting there, we had to go grab it ourselves, only to find no utensils included--meaning we had to hunt those down, too. It begs the question: what exactly are we tipping for if we're doing all the work? The cashier was also incredibly quiet and hard to hear during the ordering process; as the face of the business, a little more enthusiasm would go a long way. Like a few other reviewers have noted, we also felt like certain orders and customers were heavily prioritized over others. We noticed the owner giving warm, enthusiastic greetings to specific tables while completely ignoring the rest of us. It was a major letdown, especially since I usually love supporting local Asian-owned spots and usually experience top-notch hospitality at places like this. The service here was just incredibly subpar. There are plenty of other cafes in the immediate area with the exact same ordering system that manage to deliver exceptional service. People go for the food, but they come back for the service.

    Okay, they redeemed themselves!…read more The Coconut Coffee is an incredible afternoon pick-me-up--creamy, delicious, and exactly what you want on a hot day. As-is it's a little too sweet for me, so I have them add an extra shot of coffee (no extra charge) and it's perfect. Especially with the heat wave we've been dealing with the last few weeks. Service is fantastic, as expected. They always make your drink, have you try it, and then walk you over to the register to pay. Inside it's a dark, cool coffee café--the perfect escape from the heat. There's usually a line, so if you show up at peak hours, be prepared to wait. Parking is limited and kind of sucks, so bring patience--it goes a long way.
