My wife found this coffee shop in the Arts District of Downtown Las Vegas and we made time to check em out. The parking has spots and you go one of the parking meters to prepay the minutes you are planning to stay in the area. This spot is cool! The whole vibe and energy is colorful and welcoming. There's so many places to sit wherever you choose to dine in or maybe work and study it's a solid place for that. All the drinks look and sounded delicious. There are video screens highlighting some of their popular options. We ended up ordering the Strawberry Puree Matcha and Ube Latte. Those drinks were next level good! We loved them both. Definitely as advertised. I also saw this pistachio chocolate croissant that I just had to try! I finished that thang easily and washed it down with the Ube Latte. I was happy and caffeinated early in the morning! Staff here was kind and consistently assisted with wiping down table and offering to take any plates when finished. Iwana is a really good spot for coffee, lattes and matcha around this part of Vegas. I would love to come back here again! I'm glad my wife found this awesome coffee shop it was AMAZING! Iwana Lives Up To The Hype! ( ^_^)b read more

This is a spot I bookmarked for my husband's and my recent trip to Las Vegas. I'm glad we made the time to check it out! I didn't realize this was located in their Arts District. This is a very spacious cafe. There are many tables, a lounge area, a cafe bar, a water station, a men's and women's restrooms, and merchandise against two walls. The decor was lovely. I instantly felt relaxed as I was enjoying my drink. I ordered the Strawberry Puree Matcha with oat milk. This was one of the better strawberry puree matches I've tried in a while. If you've been to Junbi in Rowland Heights, CA it tastes similar. I might actually prefer Iwana's version. It could've been the ambiance in the cafe that made me enjoy it more. It was delicious either way! The premium grade matcha balanced well with the sweet puree. My husband ordered the Ube Latte with oat milk. It looked pretty and tasted good too! The espresso will hit you right away on your first sip and then you'll taste the oat milk and Ube balance the boldness of it. My husband also ordered the Pistachio Croissant which is not in their regular menu. They were from a local bakery. My husband said there was a chocolate chip cookie on top! He devoured the entire thing. I couldn't partake in it because I have dairy and tree-nut intolerance. Overall, this is an easy recommendation for drinks, pastries and hang-out spot. I would like to try their Mango Matcha on the next visit. They do offer milk alternatives such as oat and almond for those wondering. Thanks, Iwana Specialty Coffee! See you next time! read more

Visited Iwana Specialty Coffee Roasters with my work team for a meeting and we had such a great experience. The space had a really nice atmosphere for meeting up and relaxing while enjoying coffee and food. The Ube Matcha was delicious and definitely something unique to try, and the Coconut Mocha was equally amazing. We also ordered the smoked salmon and it was so good. Everything tasted fresh and thoughtfully made. Such a great local spot with creative drinks and great food -- we'll definitely be back! read more

Stopped here on vacation after my husband looked up "the best coffee spots in Vegas" and Iwana was on the blog's list! We are so happy we visited. Iwana specializes in Columbian coffee and it was clear they are passionate about high quality beans and the roasting process. I enjoyed reading about where they get their beans! Coconut mocha iced latte: I rarely go for mochas but I was so happy I did! It was subtly sweet and the coconut flavor really came through! Ube quad shot iced latte: my husband wnjoyed his ube latte, he said the sofr top balanced out the quad shots of espresso nicely! (The og drink comes with 2 shots, he added an extra 2). Atmosphere: this place is super cute and cozy! I loved all the purple elements and Vegas nods. The seating was vertical comfortable so we got to sit and hangout for abit! Service: the young man helping my husband order was super nice and helpful. We would definitely recommend trying this spot and I would love to go back and try some of their breakfast items. We peaked over at other tables and their food looked delicious! Thanks Iwana for a great coffee experience! read more

Date of visit: March 8, 2026 Our realtor brought us here while we were wrapping up our home search and he wanted us to see the Arts District and we came away with a newfound appreciation for our soon to be new home and enjoyed the experience at Iwana Specialty Coffee in the process. Staff are very friendly and patient, especially for us newbies to the process of perusing the menu and ordering, though we did have to ask for the cookie we ordered a second time and almost forgot about it. I went with the Chicken Caesar Wrap (sans tomatoes, because why would you ruin a Caesar like that?) and the Ube Latte as it just looked so pretty on the signage. Sadly the ube foam had really no taste and it was a pretty generic latte that I had to sweeten a bit to give it a little more taste. My husband's chocolate chip cookie was just okay, though it was massive, on the positive side. My wrap was very good and our realtor's acai bowl looked phenomenal. The vibe was bright and open, and the back patio looked great as well--looking forward to bringing some folks there in the near future! read more

Clean and airy..you feel it as soon as you step in The staff was nice with navigating me through their menu they mentioned that the ube latte and the coconut mocha are popular I decided to go with the ube latte and it's absolutely delicious it's not too sweet but it's not bitter either somewhere in the middle The coffee is very smooth and they use whole milk but they do have alternative milk as well On the wall I saw that it said that they use Colombian coffee so it makes sense why I love it so much because I absolutely adore Colombian coffee I'm glad I stumbled upon this place read more

I saw this place on TikTok and wanted to try it, and I'm glad I did. When you walk in, the first thing you notice is how clean and open the space is. The aesthetic is very nice and there's plenty of seating for studying, meeting with people, or just relaxing. They also have a backyard patio area with wood seating and umbrellas, which is perfect if you want to sit outside and get some sun. Customer service here is definitely five stars. The guy at the front is super welcoming and always smiling. He's very friendly and engaging, which makes the whole place feel warm and inviting. I also interacted with one of the women working there when I was asking about the space, and she was incredibly nice. She even noticed I was looking for somewhere to plug in my laptop and went out of her way to show me where the outlets were. I really appreciate that kind of thoughtful service. For food, I ordered the avocado toast with bacon, and it was honestly so good. It's about $12.50, but it comes with a small side salad and the whole plate was really well done. It's a hearty breakfast and I highly recommend it. I also tried the strawberry matcha, which was okay, but next time I'll probably try one of their coffees. They also have a slideshow playing that talks about the history of their coffee, which I thought was a nice touch. I went on a weekday and was able to find parking right in front, but it is a popular spot and gets busy. Overall, I highly recommend this place. Great atmosphere, excellent customer service, and really good food. I'll definitely be back. read more

Iwana is such an awesome coffee shop in the Arts District in downtown! We love supporting our local small businesses! It's really nice to have a coffee shop on that side of the art district since there's one on the other end, so it's nice to have a balance. I've been there a few times and I've always had a really great experience! The service has always been amazing! It's a very spacious, super clean, and really calming cozy environment. They have a lot of really well-known local artists work displayed throughout the café, but it's not overpowering or overstimulating to the environment. They really did a great job of creating a lot of really cool niche aesthetic while also keeping it minimalistic at the same time. I don't know how else to describe it, but I really just love the way that they set up the café environment there. Really comfortable seating, a great place to work on your computer or catch up with a friend. They also have a really nice size outdoor patio that faces out into other local small businesses in the same complex. This trip to Iwana, I got their green juice which came in a really nice size cup, it was pretty big and it was really good, just a fresh healthy green juice. I really love that. There is a place in the arts district that has these type of healthy options. My friend got the mixed berries banana smoothie and she got it half sweetened and she said that it was really good! Just an overall really great vibe and really great place especially in the area that it's in, in the arts district. It's really a perfect family owned small business to support! If you are in the arts district, go check them out! I wish they stayed open a little later!! read more

Yelp Review 2026 #2: "You make me wanna leave the one I'm with. Start a new relationship with you" - Usher Raymond Vegas has a lot of coffee shops that have great drinks but lacking in the food department. Iwana leave these places. I'm a food-first-drinks-second kind of person. Iwana has croissant/ bagel sandwiches, paninis, wraps, salads, fruit bowls and they're done well. Their drinks are Colombian-inspired from their coffees and aguapanela. I say Colombian-inspired because I didn't see anyone put cheese in their coffee like they do in Colombia. I digress. They also have espresso-based drinks, teas, matcha and lattes, milk, mocha, juice, and smoothies. SMOKED SALMON CROISSANT: You can opt for a bagel if you don't want a croissant but trust me, their croissant is good. Smoked salmon, spring mix lettuce, red onion, capers, tomato slices, cream cheese, lemon, olive oil, salt and pepper. The croissant is buttery and you can see the multiple layers. Generous portions of smoked salmon (at least 2oz). You get a choice of fruit or chips as your side. There's a side of pepper sauce that doesn't really go well with the sandwich but you don't have to use it. 5/5 AVOCADO OMELETTE: 3 scrambled eggs, avocado, tomatoes, red onions, spinach, mozzarella, feta cheese, salt and pepper, served with fruits. You can add bacon, Turkey or ham for extra $. 4/5 STRAWBERRY PUREE MATCHA: The strawberry purée provides the sweetness to the matcha. Make sure you stir well. Otherwise, you're left with sweet strawberries at the bottom. 5/5 LATTE: Non-dairy options include oatmilk and almond milk. Good coffee. 5/5 There are off-menu items. Be sure to check their seasonal/ special items and treats from the counter. They have cookies, pastries and bags of coffee for purchase. Service was ok. I think the girl behind the counter could be friendlier and have more energy especially at a place that serves caffeinated drinks. The interior is giving Keith Haring vibes. The space is spacious but with quite limited tables. read more

This is the cutest coffee shop! I was in Vegas visiting family and my sister in law highly recommended Iwana and I see why. Iwana is very unassuming on the outside, but as soon as you walk in, you know you're at the right place. The aesthetic is bright and well put together, beautiful patio seating, and the drinks are delicious. We ordered a coconut mocha, ube latte, and mango blended drink and I would order all three again. The mango drink is naturally sweet and the mocha has wonderful flavor without being overly sweet. There are nice decor details everywhere and they even have cute stickers for purchase. I will come back for sure next time I'm in town to try their food, and I bought a bag of house blend beans to take home. The baristas were very sweet too. read more

Spacious and bright coffee shop with decent places to work and WiFi. I love the fact that their matcha drinks come unsweetened - it's so much better to have the sweetness just from the topping or purée. They also sell their coffee beans and have a variety of hot foods in addition to baked goods! read more

I loved the interior of this place. They definitely took the time to take in all of the space into consideration. I accidentally purchased the wrong drink and wasn't pleased with the taste of it.

Our first time trying this place , before heading back to Cali we were excited to try this place , our iced coffees both seemed watered down. We were a bit disappointed with our drinks , the place was really cute and staff was really nice it just didn't have that strong coffee flavor and wasn't what we were expecting read more

Another modern & artsy coffee spot to add to the growing collection in the area. They offer a tasty array of pastries, food, and coffee house staples that can appease any patrons appetite. Their cappuccino, avocado toast, & wrap were standard and did not ruffle feathers. My weekend adventure to Iwana was pleasant and there was a small yet constant trickle of people that entered during our stay. The service was cordial and abiding. No issues spurred while dining and meeting with family. Reasonably priced for the area and wouldn't mind coming back to take advantage of their great layout & accommodations. read more

Stopped by here for a Colombian pour over, an iced strawberry matcha latte, and a hot honey lavender latte, and everything was beautifully presented, well-executed, and delicious! Staff were friendly and welcoming, and the atmosphere is bright, cheery, and inviting -- just one of those places that you want to linger and hang for awhile. There is ample seating indoors and outdoors. Paid street parking only apparently. Free on Sundays. 10/10 would recommend! Support local! read more

Such a gem! The coffee here is truly specialty - rich, smooth, and crafted with so much care. We went after our hotel checkout in the morning before our flight, and it was the perfect stop. The coffee was so good we even grabbed takeout to enjoy later. The ambience is next level - lots of people come here to work, and there's also seating outside if you prefer fresh air. Service was fast and friendly, which made the experience even better. Bonus points: the restrooms are gender-neutral (with a code for entry), which shows how thoughtfully the place is set up. Definitely one of the best coffee spots I've tried in Vegas - will be coming back for sure! read more

Coffee is nice and smooth. However, the star of the show here is the avocado toast, simply perfection! Croissants, cookies and all other pastries are really good too.

Whenever I visit Las Vegas, I've been to many coffee shops there. But this one has become one of my favorites. The service is warm, the decor is lovely, and everything is kept clean. You can park right in front. They offer both indoor and outdoor seating options. The Ube Matcha Latte is one of the best matcha drinks I've ever tried. It's not too sweet, and the flavor of the ube is simply wonderful. The croissant breakfast sandwich is a must-try--crispy croissant with bacon and cheese. I definitely want to come back! The acai bowl is fantastic--packed with lots of fruits, not overly sweet, and the acai is just right. It's a guilt-free, healthy breakfast that I really enjoyed. I approved read more

We ordered several items from Iwana, the salmon sandwich on a croissant, bagel egg and cheese sandwich, yogurt parfait, cold brew and hot coconut mocha. All of the items were very tasty and fresh, even though we ordered to go, the yogurt parfait still had a great presentation. The cold brew was nice and strong, great flavor! The coconut mocha was delicious, it was chocolate forward with the nice blend of coconut. It was a tad too sweet for my liking but the flavors blended so well together that it was still thoroughly enjoyable. Service was friendly. This coffee shop has a great ambiance, it's very inviting, plenty of seating both indoor and in their back outdoor patio. read more

Such a cute vibe this coffee shop is! Definitely would recommend the Ube Matcha Latte. Customer service was great & the girls were patient as we slowly made up our minds & what to order.

Cute little coffee joint in the heart of the Arts District! I treated my mom to an afternoon Mother's Day date here, as she wanted to try this place herself. We had a big mishap with her car on the way and since they close early, I was worried the entire time that we wouldn't make it! Luckily, everything was resolved quickly and we got here long before they closed. They have a very spacious interior with plenty of seating all around, plus an outdoor patio in the back. We decided to sit inside since it was hot and windy outside. Lately I've been a fan of ube and had my eyes on their ube matcha latte. I got myself one of those while my mom got their coconut mocha. I was also hungry, so I got their healthy tuna salad, along with my mom getting one of their pastries shaped like a chocolate chip cookie. The ube matcha latte was very colorful, with a matcha green filling most of the cup and topped with a purple ube. This was a very delicious latte to cool off with and now I think I have developed a matcha palate! My mom said that her coconut mocha was one of the best mochas she's ever had. Their tuna salad, topped with sliced onions, tomatoes, and olives, was also really good. This here, was real tuna, definitely not something from out of a can. Next time we visit the Arts District during the day, we'll be back here. Would love to try their ube matcha latte again! read more

Loved this little cute coffee shop and cafe! The food is amazing - we had the açaí bowl and an almond croissant - both were really tasty and very filling. I got the Uber matcha latte and a pour over of their Maragype blend coffee which were also very refreshing. The latte was unsweetened which is not usual but I appreciated as sometimes the sweetness can be overwhelming. The service was super friendly and they brought our food and drinks to our table. The ambiance is very relaxing and the environment was super clean with plenty of seating. The parking can be a little challenging as the lot is quite small, but would come back again! read more

Iwana Specialty Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

this is such an uniquely beautiful coffee spot, located in the arts district it definitely matches perfectly the concept. The interior of the shop is a purple contemporary nature aesthetic, which i believe makes the place stand out in its own unique way even more. I ordered the "Ube matcha" i love how the matcha is unsweetened and freshly whisked per order. The matcha naturally comes unsweetened so if you want it sweeter you may request it. I honestly prefer my matcha unsweetened because i don't drink matcha for the sugar but better said for its natural flavor profiles. Overall, this is such an amazing coffee shop that i will definitely be coming back to when im in the area and this time to try either their classic matcha latte or coffee! read more

This place is great - high quality matcha (try their fantastic ube matcha) as well as solid coffee (I usually go for their flat white). Everyone is always very nice - they bring everything out promptly while it looks beautifully-plated, and all tastes great.

Vegas has so many coffee shops to choose from. I want to try them all, so in my quest of looking for a place that I hadn't tried yet, I came across this amazing shop. Getting here is easy. I loved that there is parking directly in front of the shop. You do have to pay a nominal fee to park. Walking in I loved the vibe. The seating was nice with tables, a couch near a tree and a bar in the window. They also had outdoor patio seating in the back with a view of the stratosphere. It's a decent sized restaurant. We were greeted and assisted by a sweet girl. I chose to go with the hot mocha, my daughter got an iced mocha and my husband got the mango smoothie. I ordered the egg and bacon croissant, my daughter got the berry acai bowl, my husband got the Italian panini. Our food came out fairly quickly, along with our drinks. The coffee and smoothie were great. The sandwiches were very good. The acai bowl was very good and quite sizeable. We enjoyed the ambiance and food. This would be a great place to get together to catch up with friends. The pricing is average of a coffee shop. If you're in the arts district stop by for a coffee or even a delicious acai bowl to cool off from the heat. read more
