    Cozy corner at IV Starbucks.
    Elaine P.

    We were staying in Incline Village during shoulder season so Starbucks was not busy the day we stopped by. DH and I found a cozy corner and settled in. The batista even delivered our drinks to us. Friendly service. My one complaint was that a woman with a large dog was so engrossed in signing up for something at the counter that she totally ignored her dog. The dog proceeded to lick a bunch of bananas and other wrapped merchandise. A turn-off for me.

    Still pretty good for Starbucks, Consistent drinks and food. Quiet today. Had the papaya lemonade which was refreshing. Servers are nice and prompt. Easy access.

    Hole on both ends. Not supposed to be the case.

    Our drinks were not filled for about 1/4 of their cups. This is a bit much. The bags holding 2 of our sausage wraps had holes on the opposite end of them. 1 fell on the floor because of it. You wouldn't think to check for a hole. We were not given cream cheese for our bagels. Been to many Starbucks. This was pretty bad.

    Super busy but if you use your phone app they are quick. Staff friendly and does a good job moving people in and out.

    This Starbucks is hard to find and parking is tough, but worth it. Nice lobby and, on my visit, folks willing to let me sample the brew of the day. Good product, nice people, a taste, and life is good.

    Incline Village can sometimes give off that sleepy little place feel, but a double shot latte from here could change your perception. LOL During my stay, I found this Starbucks to be the little green mermaid that could. Unlike most, I didn't experience any long lines or difficulty parking. It was always an easy, in and out thing. The Baristas are also very nice and they get your order right the first time. My only difficulty was finding the place since there was a lot pine trees greenery blocking the view from the road. But, that's where Yelp's NAV came in handy!

    We stopped by Happy Tiers Bakery on our way home after finding out the little Christmas store we…read moreused to visit nearby had closed. We decided to walk around the other shops instead, and as we were walking we both looked at each other and said, "Do you smell cinnamon rolls?" The amazing smell led us right into the bakery. We ordered a cinnamon roll to go because we were still full, and the staff suggested warming it up for about 40 seconds when we were ready to eat it. That was the perfect recommendation! Once I got home and warmed it up, it was absolutely delicious. The roll was soft and fresh, and the frosting wasn't overly sweet--it had the perfect balance. My only regret is that I didn't buy more! We'll definitely be stopping by again.

    I have been wanting to write this review for about a year, but I kept holding back because I did…read morenot want to negatively impact the cafe's rating. Unfortunately, the experience has continued to get worse, and I keep noticing the same problems every time I visit. At this point, I am seriously considering taking my business elsewhere. The problems are not one-off incidents. They are recurring issues that, in my opinion, show a lack of attention to basic cleanliness, consistency, customer experience, and investment in the business. I am being very specific because I genuinely hope the owners read our negative feedback and actually do something about it. 1. The bathroom is consistently disgusting. The bathroom is almost always a mess (see photos). I have repeatedly seen feces left on the toilet, stains all over the floor and sink, and missing toilet paper or paper towels. This is not an occasional bad/busy day, it has become a pattern for several days in a row. There are several employees working there, and the owners are frequently present, so it is hard to understand how something as basic as keeping the customer bathroom clean is continually overlooked. If the bathroom that customers can see is consistently this poorly maintained, it naturally makes me question the level of cleanliness and attention to detail behind the scenes as well. 2. The temperature inside is uncomfortable year-round. During the summer, it is ridiculously hot inside. They rely on loud fans instead of investing in an AC to cool the space, which makes it hot and noisy. Then, during the winter, it is the opposite, the cafe is cold. After coming here for years, I have seen this issue repeatedly.  3. They are constantly out of basic inventory. They are frequently out of basic items such as honey, raw sugar, and other staples. What is even more frustrating is that these items can remain unavailable for weeks, sometimes with no clear indication of when they will be restocked. They are not in their year 3+ operation so they have data and should plan better. 4. The staff turnover appears high. There always seems to be a new employee, and the constant turnover of good employees gives the impression that something is not working internally. 5. The cafe is repeatedly used as a storage/construction space. There always seems to be some kind of remodeling, repair, or construction project happening, and construction materials or equipment are left sitting in a corner for extended periods. 6. The food and beverage quality does not justify the prices. For a bakery, I find the quality surprisingly disappointing, especially considering the prices. The croissants, in particular, do not even look like proper croissants. I have had better-looking croissants from Costco than from a specialty bakery, charging premium prices. And some of their pastries are served on tiny "paper" plates!! I have also discussed the cakes with multiple friends who have had similar experiences: they are expensive, yet they often seem less than fresh. When you are charging premium prices, customers should be able to expect premium quality and freshness. The coffee is another consistency problem. My Caramel latte tastes different almost every time I order one (different temperature, sweetness, milk-to-espresso ratio, etc.) depending on who makes it. There seems to be no consistent standard.  Overall: After repeated visits, my impression is that the business seems much more focused on cutting costs than on investing in quality, consistency, the customer experience, or its employees. I have given this place plenty of chances because I wanted to support a local cafe, but at this point, I don't feel that the experience is worth the money. Unless these issues are addressed seriously, I will be taking my business elsewhere.  They are already so slow compared to the other coffee shops, and if there were more competition in town, they would either have to close down or make a major shift in their quality and service. Their winning card seems to be the lack of competition in a small, touristy town. They know customers don't have many alternatives, so there isn't much pressure on them to improve. And as you can see they didn't even take time to reply to any of the yelp or Google reviews and that means they don't really care.

They split and provide the cream cheese, but $7 is a little spicy for something you can get at the market for less than a buck. The almond croissants were... just ok. I didn't like the filling bc it felt very intense almond flavor, which I like, but almost tasted fake. I also didn't love how dense they were. I like a fluffy croissant. The Americano was and I also can't wait to have another. Unlike what others posted previously, I didn't see Starbucks coffee. It's a local roast in Tahoe. They serve it as drip and in speciality drinks. Perfect stop and go location for drinks, salads, sandwiches, flatbreads, quesadillas, snacks, ice cream... Can't miss it.

I ordered the night for one special or something similar. Came with crab cake appetizer (1 crab cake) Chilean sea bass ( with quinoa and broccolini) and crème brûlée. The quinoa had no seasoning and was very dry. Had to douse with lemon to make edible. The broccolini was decent again with lemon and the bass was fine.. nothing special. For 60$ I was hoping for more flavor overall. Daughter got the clam chowder. Which was really good. Wife and son got pasta. Wife got the shrimp pasta son got the butter and noodles. We ended up mixing the 2 together and was decent. Dessert we got the strawberry butter cake, crème brûlée (came with my meal), and lava cake. Dessert was definitely the highlight of the meal. Definitely recommend the butter cake! For a 200$ dinner overall was disappointed. Service was fine. Ambiance was nice- decor was nicely done. Just don't think the food was worth the price personally.
