Do I recommend Pangolin Café? Uh, heck yes I do! An earl grey hot cocoa with toasted marshmallows and a free Turkish delight? Yes, please. Service is always helpful and cheery. The baristas really seem to be passionate about their drinks and it shows. I love the uniqueness of the menu, they have something for everyone. Ive never been upset with any of the drinks I've tried, even when it sounds strange, like adding peach to coffee... sounds bizarre, but so delicious! Inside has a few tables and places to sit. If you're looking for a fun creative coffee experience, look no further. read more

Was in Reno for the weekend and was searching for the best latte in town! Reddit recommended this place and so glad I checked it out! We ordered their ice vanilla latte with oat milk and their strawberry matcha! WOW their drinks are sooooo delicious! Both were creamy and perfectly sweetened! It was so good we both finished our drinks in minutes. Must I also add that the their drinks, cups, branding and indoor decor was very aesthetically pleasing! Will definitely be back next time I'm in Reno! read more

One of my favorite coffee/tea places in Reno. I am a huge fan of chai. I will go out of my way and drive all over this city to find to try any place that offers a chai latte. I have not quite been able to replicate the deliciousness of the authentic masala chai I used to have on the east coast, but I will say that Pangolin Cafe is the best in Reno. They make an awesome spicy chai...and I mean SPICY. I am a huge fan of masala and usually loooove as much spice as I can get, but I'm not going to lie - their top level is almost too spicy for me. Almost. Haha. Thankfully you can adjust the spice level to your preference. It's also fun that they offer a Turkish delight with each drink. The first time they offered a piece with my drink my initial reaction was to decline it, but I've enjoyed trying the different flavors they have over the years. My favorite so far is Rose :) They also have some other treats you can pay for if you like as well. I also like that they sell bags of coffee and tea that you can take home with you. Parking is a little limited directly in front of the store, but there's street parking nearby if you don't mind walking a little. There are tables in side but it's not huge so it might be tough to find seating during busier times. Anyway, try the chai :) read more

This is a cute little coffee spot. I'm a sucker for coffee when I travel. I can always do my go-to but I like to venture to cafes. Stumbled upon this spot bc the reviews mentioned Turkish delights. I've always seen these but never really tried it. Ordered the cookie crumble delight. It was smooth but it was missing that coffee flavor. I didn't taste too much coffee and it was missing that cookie feeling. Istanbul Fog - I can't quite explain the flavor but it was different and I didn't mind it. This was the hubs drink. I ended up drinking it all and he had my cookie crumble lol. The Turkish delight is my first time trying and I wasn't sure what to expect. It was chewy and very tart. I actually really like it. Definitely, wouldn't mind stopping by here to try other drinks & eat some Turkish delights. read more

Pangolin Café - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Reno, Nevada

Nice little spot out of downtown, but close enough to the strip. Aesthetically cozy joint. But small but we went at a good time, 8am on a Sunday morning. The staff were welcoming and helpful with indecisiveness. Got to appreciate the "they/them" baristas. Wife got the banana cold foam matcha drink. She said it was great. I'm not a matcha fan so i can't vouch. But as far as iced coffees and cold brews. I don't need room for creamer or sweetener. To determine a good cup of cold joe. But this Japanese flashed brewed iced coffee was absolutely robust and pact with flavors. Turkish delights were amazing also, had the grapefruit and strawberry chocolate. Recommended. Will be a go to spot in Reno, Nv. read more

Pangolin Café - Japanese flashed brew iced coffee. DELICIOUS - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Reno, Nevada

The ONLY reason I have a 4 star is because I feel like fresh cream cheese vs Philadelphia cream cheese packets would be top tier! :) Had a cookie crumble latte which was perfection! Yummy! Bagel was good, see comment above. Just feel like served cream cheese will elevate the cafe (coming from Vegas that's what I feel) I love visiting and supporting local businesses when I travel. It's such a cute spot, the staff were super cool. Good vibe and energy. Looking forward to next time! read more

5 stars. The energy level before 9am on a Monday was honestly impressive. 10/10 recommend

We tucked ourselves into this pristine gem of a cafe, and enjoyed their iced coffee (explained delightfully by the barista as the same light roast as their drip but increased in strength) and flakey, buttery croissants. The croissant was crisp, laminated with just enough butter to hold together and the filling was a perfect savory blend of spinach and cheese. We took home two bags of the Turkish Delight samplers because nothing says Narnia like winter and Turkish Delight! Be sure to check out this sweet spot of a cafe when you are in Midtown! read more

Between being a full-time student and working full-time, I no longer measure time in days or weeks, but in how long it has been since I visited Pangolin. The cardamom latte in particular is unreal. I came in this morning feeling exhausted, stressed, and questioning my trajectory in life, and after one sip I left feeling like I had a spiritual awakening and like I could possibly run for Congress or something. The baristas here are also insanely nice, and if it weren't for the fact that I'm able to grab a coffee and a bite to eat here, I would have thought this was a therapist's office, because somehow it's like they knew what I needed before I did. There are two girls in particular I see a lot - Jazmine and I think the other girl's name is Mar (???) - who bring the most amazing energy every time I see them, and I feel like they put their entire soul into what they do every morning. In general, if this coffee shop were a person, I would trust them with my taxes, my secrets, and probably my first-born child. Literally a 10/10, and I will continue to come here on a regular basis until someone has to intervene. read more

Wow! This has been the best strawberry matcha I have ever had (and I have had a lot). I think they used a syrup as opposed to puréed strawberry which I actually prefer. I can't wait to try pastries. I will be back read more

Okay, this place is really worthy of the five stars and all of the hype! I came here two days in a row while I was visiting my mom in Reno. The fist time I decided to stop by, was because of all the wonderful different choices of drinks Pangolin cafe has to offer. The good reviews always helps too, but let me tell you, I had the orange latte and it was so good, the coffee was smooth and strong while the subtle flavors of orange and orange zest complimented it perfectly. It was hard to get something else today but I had the cardamom latte with cardamom powder, which is just ground up spice, the real way, with good quality honey and macadamia nut milk. Seriously, it's ridiculous how good this was! If that wasn't enough, they give you a small Turkish treat to go along with your coffee, those are delicious and not expensive and worth every penny. This place is one of the best, easy! read more

I bought several teas here. I really like the olong coconut. It's so unique. They even stamped my card several times for buying bags of tea. I like that every drink comes with a Turkish delight and that they also sell coffee, parking on a weekend can be semi difficult. Place is small and cozy but in midtown :) they take card read more

I love going to Pangolin for specific specialty drinks. Their rose vanilla matcha is one of my favorites that I crave during the summer. They do a cool concept of the tea shot latte, which is utilizing the high pressure of the espresso machine for a concentrated tea drink. I love the Red Lavender tea shot latte (pictured). The staff is always kind and the drinks come out quick! The spot is adorable and seems like a good co working space when it's not too busy! Oh! And I loveeee the Turkish delights. Original pistachio has my heart read more

Best matcha in town! Coconut matcha was really yummy and creamy. Strawberry matcha is my personal favorite, however it is fairly sweet so be aware it can sometimes take away from the matcha flavor. Amazing drinks nonetheless and great ambiance inside to chat with friends, study for school, etc. read more

Nice coffee shop with nice staff and tasty drinks. If you order a drink, you can get a Turkish Delight free! I usually ask the barista to surprise me, because I honestly have no preference when it comes to flavors. Try their strawberry matcha and their rose lavender lemonade! They also have a punch card that can get you a free drink when you have enough punches on your card. read more

Incredible! I will forever recommend Pangolin to everyone that I know. It has a relaxing atmosphere and is beautifully decorated. The seating area is small and can be alittle too cramped when super busy, but there's also a great outdoor patio space. They are also dog friendly which is always a plus. The staff are really nice and personable. They are also very knowledgeable and offer great advice on drinks if you're not sure what to get. And you get one free Turkish delight (sweet little gummy treat) with every purchase. I've tried different drinks previously, but currently my obsession is the iced lavender latte with oatmilk sprinkled with real lavender. It checks multiple things off of my happy list every single I enjoy it. I hope you'll give them a try. Much love Pangolin crew! read more

The reviews speak for themselves. You get quality drinks, a large variety, and reasonable prices all bundled up in a cozy little shop that has become our regular stop. My personal favorite drink is the Pistachio latte. Cubano Breve is a close runner-up. Each drink will come with a commentary Turkish delight. I love the Tart Raspberry. The Jalapeño Bagel with the spicy cream cheese will be sure to warm you up in this colder weather. Don't deprive yourself any longer of experiencing this shop firsthand and the welcoming staff. read more

Pangolin Cafe is a Midtown Reno must! Located just off Virginia on an unobtrusive lot, you cannot go wrong here with the creative and diverse selection of lattes and tea lattes they offer. The service is also technical yet super friendly and sincere. A nice change of pace: good honest customer service. They offer many styles from Turkish to Cuban to Matcha to Turkish Fogs and specials. I had the Fall Fog and it was perfect nostalgic goodness. Probably the single best tea latte I have ever had. I love that it was not loud sweetness but just a gentle afterthought allowing the pumpkin spice flavors to be the center of attention to the palette. Best coffee experience I have had in a long time. Cannot wait to come here again. read more

Employees: Amazing! Atmosphere: Cozy! Coffee: BEST IN RENO Tea: Authentic, flavorful, and SO MANY OPTIONS Pangolin is hands-down my favorite café in Reno. I keep coming back for the strong coffee and the kind baristas. They serve delicious, high-quality pastries from a new bakery in Reno (Beloved's), and Liège waffles from somewhere in CA that are to die for! Atmosphere ranges from quiet and studious to a popular hangout spot; in nice weather, there's a patio outside for larger groups to meet. The plants are lovely and there are lots of goodies to pick up, including HOUSE-MADE Turkish delights. Every coffee purchase gets a free piece of candy! read more

Turkish delights... yum... never had them before..(pistachio).. Great that they also have a stamp card!.. Yes, I'll be back!$ read more

I found out that I'm not a fan of Turkish delight however this place has delicious and creamy lattes! I've been wanting to check out Pangolin for awhile as it has been a fan favorite with my friends. I am now a huge fan of their coffee and the extensive menu they offer. I tried a pistachio latte with oat milk. The presentation was beautiful and the flavor is unmatched. It was perfectly sweet with a balanced flavor. The pistachio didn't taste fake or overly sweetened. They offer many unique tea lattes that I will definitely be back to try! They give you a free Turkish delight with each coffee. The flavor was great but the texture was not for me. It was fun to try! Of note, there is no gelatin in the Turkish Delight so it makes the treat accessible to vegetarian/vegan friends. They do offer a punch card which is great especially if you frequent midtown! read more

We ordered the PB+J latte and the cardamon latte. Both of them were silky smooth, not too sweet, and had a nice natural subtle flavor of what we ordered. You can still appreciate the taste of the coffee without the add on flavors to be too overpowering. Both the cashier and barista were very friendly and knowledgeable. We could tell that they really care about their craft and providing a great experience for their customers. The logo of the store is adorable, so we decided to get one of their mugs, too! It was only $10 for this cute and lasting souvenir. This is a great stop for coffee and more when in Reno. read more

Quaint and cozy little coffee shop at a great location in Midtown! The service is excellent and the staff are all extremely friendly. It's a small space, but I don't usually have trouble finding a place to work on my laptop. The decor is warm and inviting. I appreciate the reasonably-priced drip coffee, and espresso options are unique with several non-dairy options. With each beverage purchase you get a free turkish delight! They're made in-house, and it's just such as nice little touch. Also, the toffee (also made in-house) is amazing! read more

I saw this place close by to where we are staying and stopped by- I need coffee in the morning! The person taking our order was really friendly and informative.

The vibe in here is relaxed. There is a lot of light from the windows and quiet music in the background. A lot of people in here on laptops. This would be the perfect spot to catch up on work or catch up with a friend. read more
