I just realized I've been gatekeeping this place…read more This place out of the 100's of coffee shops in town, is the best coffee no one is coming close. My greedy self thought people are finding out, and parking sucks already there - therefore shut up and don't spread if. Well now thinking about it, I can't do it anymore I got too much love for this place. We come at least once a week, parking can still suck but just be patient (don't even think about parking at AMPM), lines inside can be intimidating but they do a good job pushing through while delivering the nicest possible service..like who ask each customer "have you tried this before? If you haven't they let you try it and remake it if you don't like it" like whaaaat?! And the drinks every single one a knock out. My ranking from favoritest: Coconut Coffee - blended, creamy strong coffee and the perfect about of sweetness. Javacado - very creamy avocado mixing it with Phin coffee is insanely addicting. Cafe Brûlée- Phin coffee with egg, ridiculously good also ridiculously strong. Vanilla Cold Brew - Simple but not plan, when you want no frills but still want the finest. Banana coffee - this is the OG drink that brought me to Phin and made me a monster. The balance of coffee and banana is beautifully done (I'd suggest adding shot). Just go..they deserve all the hype and love.

Been here a couple times, the first time I went the barista (whose name I didn't get) was very nice…read moreand informative. The matcha was a little too sweet for me but not bad. Second time I went, another barista helped and he seemed rushed not as nice. I asked for an extra scoop of matcha so that it's less sweet and more of a stronger matcha taste, unfortunately, which is why I'm leaving 3 stars, their matcha is already sweetened so my drink was even sweeter and overall not enjoyable. The barista told me their matcha is already sweetened. I think sweetened matcha powder just means cheap matcha. I won't be coming back because of this. I like strong, lightly sweet matcha, not sugar and milk with a hint of matcha.

Coffee was good. Got the washed Peru in pour over…read more Writing this because of the weird interaction I had. Teach your baristas to put a little more care into explaining the coffees on bar and what's available on pour over. I wanted a single-origin coffee so I asked the barista taking my order. She said the espresso wasn't single origin but said they offer single origin pour overs but told me it would take 10-15 minutes. She then handed me a laminated sheet with all of their offerings and I chose the Mexico but she said that's what was on espresso....? I got confused because she told me there wasn't a single origin on espresso? Anyway.... the paper she handed me stated that a pour over will take 3-5 minutes, yet she told me 10-15 minutes twice. So I called the bluff. The place was empty. I ordered the pour over anyway, sat down, and sure enough, my coffee was ready in about 3-5 minutes. It almost seemed like she didn't want to make the pour over because she recommended an americano. Specialty coffee needs more transparency, more education, and more passion. If you're a coffee roaster, your staff should be excited to talk about the coffees they're serving--not discourage people from ordering them. I sensed laziness. If you see a customer struggling to pick a coffee, recommend something that's fruit forward or something that's more classic. Don't wait for the customer to ask, ask THEM what they like and work off the customer. Care a little bit more. This was my first and last impression. Vesta Coffee will be my go-to.

Mothership Coffee Roasters at Fergusons Downtown is a great spot if you're looking for quality…read morecoffee and a laid-back atmosphere. The space has a relaxed, welcoming vibe that's perfect for meeting up with friends, getting some work done, or just enjoying a quiet morning. On this visit, we ordered a croissant breakfast sandwich along with coffee and tea, and everything was fresh, flavorful, and delicious. Mothership continues to do a great job with both their drinks and their food, and this location was no exception. The only thing worth mentioning is that they don't seem to keep much cash on hand, so if you're paying with cash, it's a good idea to bring smaller bills since they usually aren't able to break anything larger than a $20. Overall, we had a great experience and would happily stop by again the next time we're in the Fremont area.

Its a hidden gem and little…read moreunexpected, but once you're able to find this speakeasy style spot (but instead of a bar, its a coffee shop and bakery), it's a really cool spot to hang out at. Restrooms were really clean and had the same style decor too, so I appreciated that attention to detail. However, I docked 2 stars since I couldn't order anything. I arrived at 939pm, looked at the menu and decided on a slice of the Ube Crepe cake and one of the Apple Cinnamon macarons. They don't close until 10pm and people were still coming in, and there were still plenty of people sitting in the restaurant, but the staff didn't let me order anything at 945pm saying that she doesn't take any more orders after 930pm. What?!?! What the hell? You're open for a whole 30 more minutes and don't want to take my money - am I hearing that right? My friend had cash on him, and he was willing to pay cash if that's less of a hassle, and still no. It's not even to-go only, it was a flat-out no, before their 10pm closing time. THAT IS CALLED CRAP SERVICE. However, the 3 stars instead of 1 or 2 stars is because one anonymous employee who witnessed that go down changed my perspective of this spot. This person asked me not to reveal their identity on my Yelp review out of fear of getting in trouble. They overheard me trying to order but got turned away, then pointed to the macaron in a box in the fridge on display right there to my friend. So as I was walking towards the bathroom, this person (different than the girl who rudely turned me away) apologized for what happened and gave me the apple cinnamon macaron as a gift. That was so sweet of them. The macaron was absolutely perfect too, it was delicious - the perfect texture of the macarons, apple filling, in the center between the cream, with the crunch from I think they were dried apple bits on the side of the cream - amazing!!! But still insanely Vegas tourist trap rip off overpriced with the macaron that person gave me worth $8.35/piece. Honey & Butter Macarons in Irvine, CA or Durian Macarons at Sweet Mood in Westminster, CA, still keep their also delicious macarons under $5 each while having cute decor/ambiance (I'll admit they're not as impressive and unique as this spot though). But they're essentially banking on tourists not knowing any better and what things should actually be worth/gouging tourists as much as they can. Essentially, you're paying for the ambiance. Definitely not paying for the crap service. Food is good, but not astronomically priced good - you're kidding yourselves. You may be able to get away with stuff like that if you're inside one of the luxurious casinos on the Strip, like Venetian, Caesars, Bellagio, etc. But especially being off-strip, get a reality check. I may come back (thanks to your anonymous employee's kind gesture giving me that macaron), but it's more just to show my parents the cool ambiance.

Urban Matcha is always one of my go-to spots and honestly has some of the best matcha in Vegas. My…read morefavorite is the Matcha float--I order it pretty much every time because it's just that good. The recent visit was a little chaotic because my two-year-old nephew accidentally spilled my entire drink all over me . It made a huge mess on the table and floor, and I felt so bad. One of the girls came over right away to help clean everything up and was so nice about it. They even offered to make me a new drink, which I definitely wasn't expecting and really appreciated. Thank you again to her!! Stuff like that is why I keep coming back. The matcha is always amazing, and everyone who works here is so friendly. Definitely recommend if you're looking for a good matcha spot in Vegas.

Fast service too, however I cannot justify their matcha quality, flavored with shaved ice or the soft serve itself. I've also tried their ube but barely taste the ube flavor.

I saw these cute animal figurines that hold one single candle, my favorite was the octopus ($55). It's small and fits in the palm of your hand. I wish I had bought it, because how often do you get to blow out a birthday candle sitting in a cute, little octopus. This is a great shop and more than worth a visit. There is only street parking, but you might get lucky and find a spot at the front. The seating for the coffee shop is limited. Finding a table for more than two people can be challenging, there were only two 4-tops, 2-3 seats at the bar and maybe four 2 seaters.

I wouldn't say a ton of seating, but definitely a good amount. I looove their tiramisu latte. And I love their cloud tops that you can add on top of any of their coffees. They're SOOO good. Definitely recommend this spot. Their pastries are delicious and their coffee is incredible. So glad to see that they're opening even more locations throughout the valley, too!
