    Came to try this coffee after watching a few videos rating this the best coffee they've ever had. My overall opinion is that it is above average. Definitely better than Starbucks or similar chain coffee shops. But to be called the best coffee ever? I would have to disagree. I had salted caramel, which was good. My wife had Mexican mocha, she said it was very good. We also tried horchata frap, which in my opinion was the best drink we tried. So 4 solid stars, but not best ever.

    I've been to this coffee shop a few times, mainly because its conveniently located near where my dogs are groomed. I really wanted to like it, especially since I believe it's family-owned and I love supporting local businesses. That said, the atmosphere has consistently felt unwelcoming. I want to be clear that I am easygoing and don't expect over-the-top friendliness or bubbly customer service. But on multiple visits, I've walked in and not been acknowledged for a while; no eye contact, greeting, nothing. Other times, I've been met with silence and a blank stare. It's honestly weird. Today was actually the first time I was asked "what can I get you today?" here. Even so, after several visits with similar experiences, this spot feels like a gamble in terms of what kind of customer service I'll receive. I only went today because I was very tired, had a long day ahead of me, and I just didn't have time to drive further out. But I genuinely felt a small sense of dread as I drove the short distance there. I visit a lot of coffee shops in the area, and this is the only one where I literally pull up with hesitancy, wondering if I will be met with a cold demeanor. Ultimately, I've decided I won't be returning because I don't need to be anywhere that feels uncomfortable and unwelcoming. When I have a not-so-great experience somewhere, I'm apt to return again (if I enjoyed the product), because sometimes people have off days. But you know what, I've been here several times and at this point...to get a bad feeling before entering a coffee shop? Yeah, I did my due diligence & it's just never that serious to deal with all that to get a drink, lol. That said, there are positives worth mentioning. The shop is clean, quiet, and has plenty of outlets, making it a decent place to work if that's what you're looking for. There are also small dividers between the tables, so you get a sense of privacy from other seated customers. The lighting is on the dimmer side (no harsh overhead lights), and there's usually relaxing music playing. They also have some interesting and unique drink options such as the Mexican mocha and horchata latte. I got an iced sweet vanilla latte with almond milk this time. It was decent. It was also nice that the drink was brought to me at the table I'd been waiting at; that gesture was appreciated. Overall, while I love that this is a local, family-owned business and the drinks are good, the customer service aspect just makes it not worth it for me.

    Iced Horchata Latte and Mexican Mocha

    Skimos is proudly Mexican-owned and they don't hide it! From the flavors like Spicy Mexican Mocha and Horchata to the Serrano Avocado toast. It's a cute little grab and go cafe with some seating if meeting a friend for lunch or going on a solo coffee date. I had the Horchata latte which was not too sweet but average but the Mexican mocha was delicious. Reminded me of chocolate abuelita. We also tried the chicken pesto panini and California panini both were BOMB!

    My husband and I had a hankering for a drink treat after spending a few hours in Lake Mead, so we decided to give Skimos a try. The space was clean with ample seating and lots of outlet plugs (hello to a great place to get some work done). There was a large bookshelf in the backroom with boardgames, books, and magazines to enjoy. There was also one gender neutral restroom onsite; door code needed. The barista counter was clean with a display case of goodies. Both baristas working were friendly. I decided to try an iced vanilla matcha latte. The matcha was vibrant in color which tells me it's good quality; the vanilla used was not my favorite though as it tasted a tad artificial. My husband got an iced Mexican chocolate - this was delicious! I definitely stole a few sips of his drink and I could tell he thoroughly enjoyed it because he drank it so fast haha! I really appreciate that Skimos offers a large variety of drinks for us non-coffee drinkers in addition to their coffee / espresso offerings. We'll definitely be back to try more from their menu.

    I have been to Skimos a number of times over the years, but have always forgotten to leave a review. Skimos is a very consistent coffee shop in the Green Valley area. They offer coffee, teas, and food. Their pumpkin spice latte is among the best there is due to the fact that they use pumpkin puree in the coffee. The shop is warm and cozy and has a decent amount of seating. They have music playing in the background to help with the vibes. Staff are friendly and knowledgeable. Definitely give Skimos a try.

    Highly recommend take his word for the French toast coffee ! Great service! Giving edgy vibes!

    This is my second time coming to Skimo's Coffee Shop, and I absolutely love it here. They have great options for both coffee and food, and the place itself is so cozy. I especially love that they even have games in the back--it's such a fun touch. The staff are also incredibly kind and welcoming. I would definitely come here every day if I lived closer, and I'll for sure be coming back.

    Caesar salad wrap

    Walked in early afternoon the place was dimmer than most. Seemed like a cool place to study as they have a back room, separate from the front coffee area. I was kind of bummed as my Matcha tea latte tasted a little watery/blend. I asked the worker if there was anything I can add to it like sugar or syrup said that they would have to charge me for syrup. I know all coffee places are different, but most accommodate to least ensure your drink is to your liking. On the flipside, we did enjoy the food as it was nice, fresh and tasty! The gentleman that helped us towards the end was very friendly and nice. He asked if everything was okay, but by that time I gave up on matcha latte. Unfortunately, don't think we would be back though.

    Avocado toast
    Michelle K.

    Super cute coffee shop! I highly recommend the Mexican mocha with the avocado egg toast!! Food was great, coffee was delicious and not too sweet, which I really appreciated. The workers were very helpful and gave great recommendations! I'll be back to try more items there!

    Jasmine V.

    Got the blended matcha, creme brulee latte, California panini, and everything avocado toast. Blended matcha was a nice blended cold slush but it needed way more matcha. The matcha was not authentic. Creme brulee latte was good. It had a nice touch of creme brulee and coffee was delicious. The California panini was so delicious! I liked how they actually press it real tight and it was perfectly filled with just right amount of sauce. The toast was fresh and crunchy. The add of avocado and the everything bagel was perfect. Staff were friendly and service was good.

    Egg salad avocado toast
    Sabrina D.

    I cannot say enough about the amazing quality and flavor of the food that Skimos coffee shop sells! I went for a coffee date with my girlfriend, and we both had a seasonal coffee and the Egg salad, avocado toast. The pumpkin spice latte was the perfect amount of pumpkin, coffee, and spices that was not overbearing. The avocado toast was the creamiest and most delicious I have ever had. This is a walk up and order restaurant. Your food will be brought to your table when it is complete, I believe this is a small family owned facility and they are definitely doing something right! The servers were kind and the food was brought out in a decent time. There are a small selection of seats that offer both booth and chair options. This is a great place to study or go catch up with a friend.

    Honey vanilla latte

    STILL the best coffee in the city!! Congratulations on the new location Service is always on point and the coffee is out of this world. Calm chill energy in here even when it's packed.

    Great hidden gem. Very cozy and quiet coffee shop. We always have great experience at this coffee shop. They offer a great variety of drinks and food. Our favorite are their lattes. They are so flavorful with smooth and creamy taste. You can taste the difference in a quality of the coffee. We have tried their pastries and they were fresh and delicious. The place is super clean, quiet and welcoming. We liked the ambiance and the service was great too. They are very attentive and quick. We have felt welcomed and appreciated. We are highly recommend it and definitely will be back!!!

    There is still a back room. I do not believe they usually reserve it, but I bet you can ask. Better to do so in person. To me, it could fit 20 people comfortably.

Savor Coffee literally can't be missed. It's right across the street from Sunset Park and it can be easily seen while you're driving up and down Eastern. Parking is incredibly easy and they have multiple spaces available, especially when it's not too busy. Since it was a nice day outside the day I was there, the door was propped open. This is a very cozy coffee shop. The music that they had playing in the background really fit the ambiance. I ordered a lavender matcha drink, but it looks like they only have one size available here, which was a small. It looked like the barista was making the drink in a homestyle fashioned kind of way, so it did take a while for it to come out. I've expressed interest in matcha drinks lately, with a little bit of lavender added in, and this one was really good! My hairstylist operates her salon out of her home, which took about 10-15 minutes to get to from here, and I was about halfway done with this drink right when I arrived and I finished it during my appointment. I really liked this place! I don't frequent Eastern too much but I wouldn't mind coming back here again.

This was exactly the experience I expected and wanted and needed. We came in our own crowns, and I'm honestly a little regretful because they have a whole collection of appropriate crowns, hats, and headbands to enjoy your tea as you should. The teas, The Teas! so many to choose from. You can smell them before and decide on 2. so beautifully presented in the most adorable of tea cups. In fact, a whole cubby room of tea sets to see! And the menu is delectable. I don't know if the menu changes, but as of this posting, it is the same I had. I won't say there was a stand out dish; It's a stand out experience! I guess my complaint is I couldn't finish it there, enjoying these unique surroundings; but in the other hand, plenty to enjoy later at home. I need to mention our hostess, certainly Fae- (I'm so sorry I've forgotten your name)- a flittering, fluttering bright spot to the day. Hare, Hatter, Caterpillar in one. I might have imagined her but there every step of the way to let us know what was happening, explain anything that needed to be explained and what was next. Of course it ends with a photo shoot on a throne with props! The little store is adorable and sells the teas and fancy tea thingies. it's always hard to tell how big a space is, and it is fairly small, but perfect for any high tea birthday, girl's day out, club meeting lunch, just because. You pay when you reserve because the food is prepared fresh to your reservation. My biggest regret is not stopping Chef as she passed through to say hello and thank you. Thank you, Chef, you and Fae, for an absolutely lovely experience. And one last thing, and most important to me, an incident did occur that needed a human heart and compassion, and they met that with grace I had a wonderful time and absolutely loved this experience and have shown off my High Tea pictures when someone had asked how I've been this month

It wasn't working right so I called and was told if I wanted a pop tart to come in the morning, understandable. When I was ready (different day) to go I was again having trouble ordering ahead with inkind. I called and Savannah was kind enough to sit a pop tart aside as I explained what I was experiencing, I asked for something else too but changed my mind when I was in line there. Funny thing is the day before I picked up food at a different restaurant across the parking lot, had no idea that they were there, hiding and waiting for me to discover them! I went on a Sunday. Did brunch for my mom's birthday. It was BUSY! I get that there's other places but they need a bigger spot, everyone was there. It was the spot! Patio/outside was packed and inside was busting like some biscuits lol. Truly packed, and a line almost to the door. I highly recommend ordering ahead if possible. Like I mentioned I had the pop tart plus I can't remember what on hold. While in line Savannah put out 1 fruit pop tart. The fruits on it made it a no brainer. Tho I know for a fact the other one would've been epic, that fruit tart was calling my name! Michaela helped me and she's a rockstar! She's kind, patient, funny and knowledgeable. I did the spinach crab Benedict. I asked about the crab. Making sure it wasn't mix, she said it was blue crab. Sold! I ordered woman the brown butter latte w lavender cloud top and loving seasonal items I did the banana biscoff. I got my pastries immediately, food took a minute and drinks a bit longer. Someone else waiting on their food left so I got her spot/table. They stay busy! There was very rarely a moment when no one was waiting. I was probably there 40ish mins possibly a few more. I tried my drink when I got I. The car and wasn't super impressed. No problem. I loved the way they packed everything, I was able to plate it nicely as well. The Benedict was nothing short of FABULOUS! Every flavor compliments the other perfectly. The crab was delicious and for the price you can't beat it! The Maine blueberry pop tart! Omg! And the fruit tart tasted better than it looked! Woman loved her drink and was raving about the food and pastries. My drink didn't much taste like banana or biscoff despite the crumbles on top. Still, the foods amazing, staffs amazing, place is cute, just small. I'm going back, no question. New favorite!
