First time here and loved it! The place itself had a lot of good seating and an outside patio too! The service was amazing and the two guys working were nice and had good vibes! I got a cold brew coffee with oat milk and toffee nut flavoring. The taste of the coffee was delicious! They also have the small ice that's fun! Will be back to try some more coffee and other menu items! They also have beer and wine that I want to come back and try!

Excellent service Excellent coffee Laid back atmosphere/ambiance is hipster This was my first time coming here, as every time I'm on Water Street, they are closed. I'm so sad that I've never been here before!!! This place is awesome! Coffee and some breakfast items are available in the mornings, and evening time they are a really cool wine bar (yes, yes, I will be coming back for vino!) Tons of seating available, and they have covered seating outside as well. Dog friendly patio, as far as I could tell, as well. Very clean and super cute indoor area. They even have live music on certain days. Swing by and support LOCAL! This place is better than Starbucks, for sure.

I hadn't been here in a long while, and thought I'd give this place a go. My daughter and I ordered a PSL and a cinnamon roll. The coffee was not too bold, and the pumpkin flavor was not over the top or too light either. The cinnamon roll was fresh. They get them from Flemming's European Bakery on water street. I would have liked a few more options for food, but I understand that with fresh offerings, you get more selection the earlier you come. There wasn't a line when we arrived, and they were prompt with the coffee as well. We liked the comfy chairs they have available. However, they also have cafeteria style tables and high tops for people who need a workspace. I liked the phone booth of books. I thought that was a clever use of space. I was also surprised to learn about the attached wine bar. The last time I was here, that wasn't there...so it's been awhile. I'm glad I made it back.

I paid a visit to nearby City Hall to drop off my electoral ballot and I decided to swing by Public Works Coffee Bar for a coffee and a light snack on my way home. This Public Works is the standalone location, with the other one being inside America First Center, the arena where the Silver Knights play. I've actually never been this far down Water Street before and was amazed to see new local business that I've never seen before, especially Public Works. There were a few parking spaces right out front, but despite the ridiculous heat that we're in right now, I chose to park in the parking lot just up the street and walk over because, I did not dare to parallel park on the street, which is something I haven't done since my driver's test over a decade ago. The staff was full of energy and were singing along to the early 2000's music playing. Heck, it made me want to sing along with them! With it being so hot outside, I ordered a large iced coffee with vanilla flavoring and a bagel with cream cheese as my light snack. They have a very nice, spacious patio outside but I chose to remain inside due to the heat. The coffee really hit the spot and it just burst with that vanilla flavor upon my first sip. The bagel with cream cheese, which was warmed up, was soft and had lots of added flavor to it with the cream cheese. I had the first half as my snack for that day and the second half as my breakfast the next day. The best part is that my bagel didn't dry out overnight, which meant it was still edible. I loved the phone booth inside which had books and Polaroids of random dogs! This reminded me of my recent trip to Europe, where I saw a real life but out of service phone booth in Scotland that resembled the one here. If you're in or around Water Street and need a coffee fix, Public Works is your place. Come check them out!

Stopped by after at an early Saturday morning and figured we'd try out their coffee and breakfast. They're located in the Water Street District and it was nice seeing that the area has been cleaned up. The coffee shop/wine bar has a cozy ambiance and is self seating, definitely would get crowded if you're here later in the day. We got two iced vanilla latte as well as the salmon lox toast and the Loraine quiche. Coffee came quickly and food took a while, big overall the wait wasn't too bad. Coffee is decent but not the most flavorful, and the food had good portions and plenty of flavor as well. There's not much service for the mornings, as you order at the counter and get your coffee and food from the counter when they're ready. They're also using disposable utensils and to go boxes, so it feels more of a grab and go place than a sit down, relaxing coffee spot. Give it a try when you're in the area!

Been here before but it was crowded and noisy so we haven't been back. This Saturday around 11:30am was perfect. There were some ppl there but plenty of seats/tables to enjoy. They have slightly renovated since the last time I can here with nicer bar stools and nicer furniture. Looks like they are going to stay open later this June as they are opening a wine bar of sort. Can't wait for it. The coffee is always nice here to enjoy. We got our lattes and worked away. WiFi was easy to connect. Very clean shop. Workers were all attentive and there were a steady amt of ppl coming to grab their day's coffee fix. Plenty of seatings outside as well. It was too windy today for us to sit outside but would love to do that on a nice day.

I like going to local coffee places over larger chains, so when I saw this one I had to go. The drinks that I got tasted amazing. I got a honey/lavender iced matcha also an iced toffee-nut latte. The service was also fantastic. The girl at the counter was super sweet even though clover didn't want to load for her. The shop itself is super cute. I love the mural that's painted on the outside of the building, and the decor inside

Excellent Service! The Staff is always friendly and helpful when we come here. This is our third time trying this place out and we loved it the first time! The problem is we enjoyed everything so much we kept forgetting to take pictures before eating. Love the Cuban Honey coffee, the Lavender, Caramel and Chocolate Latte. The Lox and Bagel is to die for, if you want to share ask for it open faced, and my number one favorite is the Avocado Pesto Toast! I will eat this until the Apocalypse!!!

Egg bites, add bacon and avocado. Chefs kiss.

Back again for my breakfast cravings. Today's egg bites, add bacon and avocado were different in appearance but delivering the same satisfying taste! Fast. Friendly. Fulfilling.

This coffee shop is in the water district in Henderson and is nicely decorated. We had the matcha honey and cheese egg bites and both were good. The service could be better but will try again.

I was very sad to see my little water street coffee shop close down, so discovering Public Works has been a great consolation. I truly enjoy the downtown/Water St district in Henderson with its hometown feel and charming Main Street vibe. The coffee is hot & fresh & perfectly brewed. The baristas are super friendly & know what they're doing. There's an area inside with seating to enjoy your beverages or enjoy a yummy bite from the menu & a really great elevated patio area to eat outdoors on one of our many sunshiney days! It's location is "out of the way," but so worth it for a great coffee date with friends. read more

Super friendly service that puts you at total ease. The vibe is very modern, and open. They had Christmas decorations up too. There is a good sized menu with different yummy options. I tried the Trés Leches latte- it was bommmmb. They even put a cute little teddy gram on the top. My mom had a chamomile tea that was deemed very mild and earthy. We also had a cruffin. It was flaky, sweet, but not coyingly sweet. You'll catch us here again, and again. Awesome job guys! read more

We visited this place over the weekend and was excited to see if they lived up to the reviews. Several people were there so we thought that was a good sign...or maybe they just don't know what good coffee is?! We wanted a pastry and breakfast sandwich from the display but they all looked stale and days-old, so we just ordered a hot coffee and one iced snickers latte. Neither of us liked our beverages so we tossed them and ended up going elsewhere. The city of Henderson area is quaint and they have great outside seating for this cooler weather. We have no plans for returning. read more

No, not good. Prices are way too high, took way to long to make, and the drinks are not good at all. I bought three drinks to give them a fair chance... all three tasted almost the same. And that flavor... so familiar. The closest I can describe it is day old, watered down Sanka. This experience was a disappointing rip off. I got a hot latte and the cup wasn't even close to full. Honestly, I would rather go to S*******s, and that's saying a lot because I seriously hate that place. And even worse than S*******s pushing their America hating liberal agenda, Public Works actually has a red communist fist for their logo. What exactly is the agenda they are trying to promote? Luckily, with coffee this bad and prices this high, only fools will return and they won't be around long. read more

I have been going to this coffee house almost every weekday morning for about a year now and I love it!!! I absolutely love the coffee here too, obviously!!! I have the regular drip coffee (which gets a free refill) and it is always more than excellent... but my favorite specialty is the Cuban Honey (I add an extra shot of espresso). But it about more than coffee... it's the people, Larry, Marino, Logan, Sam and Sonny, (especially Larry & Marino) who really add to my day on a regular basis. They always greet me warmly, remember my regular order (sometimes having it ready for me before I get there) and I feel go the extra mile to make me feel like family. I love the delicious choices of nibbles (although I wish they had a few more) and the easy feel of the decor. I also enjoy the way they support local artists... the art pieces on display each month are for purchase! I am constantly telling everyone to visit Public Works Coffee! You will only be delighted! read more

I have been anticipating this place for a while. Downtown Henderson is near my home and I work across the street on certain days of the week. I was stalking the internet for months to find out when they would open and was happy to see it all come together. The interior has a welcoming and fun vibe. I love the style and set up -- and plenty of seating near large open windows. My first order was a Tres Leches Latte and a Pesto Chicken Sandwich. The Tres Leches was milky and sweet - like the dessert - but not too sweet, which I like. The Teddy Bear Graham on top is cute touch. The sandwich was ok. I was not in love with it (it was slightly cold in the middle), but I'm willing to try out more of their food options. They're new and I love that they support the local community with the coffee they offer - Mothership and local beer varieties. I haven't been here for dinner or Happy Hour, but I plan to in the future. I'm excited to see what's to come from Public Works. Great new addition to the neighborhood! read more

This review is LONG overdue. First and foremost, shout-out to Sunnie & Liz for being the most amazing baristas in the world. I love that every time I come in they customize my tea order to what I'm looking for- if I'm in need of relaxing, a pick me up, or if I just want to try something new. Employees like them are what elevates a business to the next level and keep me coming back every single time. They're professional, yet down to earth and one of the many reasons why I love this place. Second, the vibe & energy in this place is so chill. From decor to the music, it's the perfect place to study. The volume is never too loud or awkward soft and the music they play is perfect. As a college student always looking for the perfect study spot, I've definitely found it. Last but not least and certainly the most important... the food. You can feel the love they put into making it. One of the best breakfast food places I love going to. It's been a while since I've been back due to the holidays, but the quiches are great. I especially love the mushroom one. The wraps are good too. They have a pretty good selection for vegetarians and vegans especially if you go in the morning. It's apparent that from the employees to the food, these people take pride in their business. I'm going to be a lifelong repeat customer for sure. read more

This place is such a fun find!…read more We started with a glass of wine and ended up grabbing a bottle to take right down the block to Azzurra--perfect setup. The whole spot feels upscale but still super welcoming... vibrant, clean, and full of energy. Happy Hour? Great. Starters from Azzurra? Even better. And then you've got a wine wall and a small record shop?? Just a cool, unique vibe all around. The wine selection was surprisingly great--and very attainable (no sticker shock).

From the moment you sit down, you feel like a regular -- even if it's your first time in. Today John was at the bar. He has a real talent for reading the room. Busy night? Your drink appears fast and exactly right. Slow evening? He'll chat with you just enough to make the place feel warm without hovering. That balance is harder to find than most people realize. John always makes the drinks well -- no shortcuts, good pour, and he actually remembers what you ordered last time you were in. The attention to detail is what separates a good bartender from a great one. The vibe of this whole bar really comes down to the person behind the counter, and John and the rest of the bartenders absolutely carry it. Friendly, professional, and genuinely seem to enjoy the work. If you haven't stopped in yet, do yourself a favor.

About three tastings in (we don't really drink) we needed to add some carbs to the party so we checked out the food menu. $10 for a small pizza, not bad at all.

I was the only one eating but my family all ordered drinks. I got the hot honey chicken sandwich and it was really freaking good. I'm obsessed with hot honey these days and it really hit the spot.

I WANT to love this place. It is so close to being fantastic…read more I have eaten here about 10 - 15 times over the last year and a half. The Burger should be great. The meat is fantastic, the bun is excellent, but I'm just not a special sauce kind of person. All they need to do to make their burger really awesome is to carry some BBQ sauce. That's it. This entire establishment does not contain any form of BBQ sauce. Don't get me wrong, I am not somebody who would ever put it on a good steak! But burgers, wings, fries, this place offers a number of things that could be elevated by keeping a few bottles of BBQ in the fridge. Just give me the option, you don't even need to list it on the menu. I used to love the beef stroganoff that they had for a while, but I guess it must not have been popular because they got rid of it. It seems that in it's place they started offering a Shepards pie. I was excited about this meal until it arrived and the potatoes were filled with cheese. A Shepards pie does not traditionally have any cheese. So it is probably a good idea for the menu to mention that it is in there. In any case, I tried to order it sans the cheese but I guess it is pre mixed into the mash or something. They cant make it with no cheese. :( Lastly, and most depressingly, they took the shrimp appetizer off of the happy hour menu! This was a real kick-in-the-dick for me. I have probably came to BLVD Grille at least 10 times in the last year specifically because the happy hour $5 shrimp appetizer was so outstanding. I am genuinely depressed that they took it off the happy hour menu. I haven't tried the steaks yet, I want to, but most days, I'm just looking for some shrimp, a side of fries and a drink. I haven't given up on this place yet, but I feel like I'm losing my favorite menu items one by one.

I was visibly angry and telling them to get away from me, yet no member of the staff stopped to ask what had happened or whether I was okay. Everyone simply kept things moving. I understand that the restaurant is not responsible for the behavior of every person who walks through its doors. But it is responsible for managing its space and paying attention when a customer is being harassed or assaulted directly in front of staff. Please improve how you manage the pickup/line area and train employees to recognize when something is clearly wrong.

Located right on Water street, this charming local coffee shop that has just added a new wine bar, and I couldn't be more thrilled! The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, perfect for either a morning pick-me-up or an evening wind-down with a glass of wine. The coffee selection is fantastic, with a variety of roasts and specialty drinks. I had a delicious cappuccino that was expertly made and full of flavor.

They have a great selection of local wines, and the staff is knowledgeable, offering excellent recommendations based on your taste preferences.

I love the original Gäbi in Chinatown, but it's too far away from me and gets overcrowded often…read more So, I'm really happy when this smaller Gäbi opened up on my side of town! I've been here multiple times to do some coworking with my friends. The working tables are spacious and have plenty of outlets for the whole group. I got a lavender matcha for my morning caffeine and by lunch time I ordered a a prosciutto avocado toast with a galaxy ade for a refreshing drink. I wish I was given actual silverware though, because I was struggling using the plastic utensils to slice through the toast. I love the quiet ambiance and cozy decor, and I can easily spend the whole day getting some work done here.

I wandered in this morning with my wife…read more The woman at the counter says "We can't serve you, the system is down. You can wait if you want." There was no: Hey, we need a few, have a coffee. Or any pleasantries. We left. No sale. No good will. No future customer.

Our family came in on a hot Sunday to get some iced coffee and was met with a rude man (I think the…read moreowner) while waiting for our order. The man threw his hands in the air in frustration and told us to move but really there was nowhere to go to in such a small place. A little kindness would have gone a long way Cant speak to the dine-in experience (only 5 small tables seats 2-4 people each) but avoid the take out experience. It was terrible. I would not return. The coffee itself is pretty basic. Go next door to the grocery store if you want coffee to go.

Powdered sugar sprinkled on top was a nice touch. My mom had the French toast with seasonal berries (strawberries & blueberries). What a big portion she had. A large platter. We both had coffee, very good coffee here. Very quaint and cozy inside. I really like the high tables. Tons of Italian pastries to choose from. They also serve lunch items. Plenty of shaded seating outside on the patio, overlooking the lake. Very quiet and peaceful. Great service too. Nice prices as well. This place is wonderful, inside and out. The 2 people working this day are very kind and friendly. The restroom is in the back, and very clean. You must try this place. The pastries are delicious. I look forward to coming back, at least 7 times because there are 7 menu items I really want to try. Don't miss out going here. I live behind the Westgate, and it only takes about 25-30 minutes to drive there. We left home around 8:35 am. And there is plenty of free parking. Also handicapped parking. Lots of different shops within the corridor. It's very nice here. I will definitely be back for more breakfast and lunch items. 7 times, so I can try everything that looked great on the menu.

I like this place a lot! Air is bumping, ample seating area and WiFi, pastries, really nice…read morebaristas, and delicious drinks. My first visit was a happy accident (ended up in this plaza by mistake) and I was going to do the regular einspanner but took the barista's reco to try the tiramisu one when I mentioned I was in the mood for something sweet. It was fantastic. Their milk-ice-espresso-cream top ratio is perfect. The cream top itself was like a dessert but the drink itself was not overly sweet. I got a donut that looked like a mini cronut that hit the spot. I liked this place so much the first time that I came back the next day and tried a vanilla iced latte with oat milk. Super solid and consistent spot. Prices are also super fair.

This is a small coffee spot located in a strip mall, so plenty of parking. There are also plenty…read moreof seating so you can relax or work as needed. Soft music plays overhead but it isn't loud. They do sell small snacks like donuts and of course the coffee. I had my usual latte and it was very good. The milk was well texturized and the beans were flavorful but not too bold. They had a regular cup to use but it would appear it was the only one so it is likely if you come they might just use to go cups for everything. The only small knit would be the nice young barista clearly was new or inexperienced at the job. She was not really knowledgeable about pouring the drink so the latte art was really just a mess and she ended up trying to pour thru when it was fill and so it so pilled over and into the counter. Not the dream but not a massive issue. With some training, the drink could be amazing and as it was, pretty good. This place is located almost across the street and down a little from Dark Moon so stiff competition right nearby. I'm glad there is so much quality in Henderson!

I got the Piña Colada smoothie which the first sip gave me instant dopamine. The whip cream gave me a weird filling in my mouth after eating a couple straw fulls of it but it didn't ruin the drink.
