    The cute barista made us the most amazing iced vanilla latte with maple syrup, loved the fact that she used wholesome ingredients. Highly recommend this place.

    GREAT service, incredibly kind & helpful staff, yummy coffee, tea & treats! Our family rented kayaks for an hour and enjoyed relaxing on the beach with tasty treats. The dog friendly beach was heaven for the pup, and the views can't be beat. Definitely check it out!

    Today was cruising the Lake area and decided to stop in and chill for a bit at the lake. Love it because it's never very packed and it's great little gem with plenty of seating on patio and you can take down to the beach at picnic tables as well. First time trying the food and Aiden was the young man who helped me and was great service. Kudos to the girl too (didn't get name) who made the burrito because it was Delish. I had the Bacon Jam Breakfast Burrito.I love that the burrito was grilled and had like an herb encrusted grilled on that was so good . Size was perfect, Comes with a side salsa that was delish too. Just chilled on the patio and enjoyed the Lake. Highly recommend the spot and Beach too. You can bring your dogs to beach too and it's a smooth rock beach not Sandy but still very enjoyable for a nice dip in the water. Enjoy !!!!

    This is one of my favorite spots on North Shore. The small café offers coffee and light breakfast options. They have tons of paddle boards, kayaks, and other items to rent for water adventures. There is a restroom available as well. The adjacent dog beach is great for bringing your pup to frolic in the water.

    Beautiful location! Fun to swim in, water is closed as usual. Theres a putting golf set nearby too! We rented a two-seater kayak for $150 and I think it's pretty worth it. Super sweet service from the two dudes who helped us! (I didn't get their names I'm sorrryyy.) I got an iced rose latte with their house made almond milk... DELICIOUS! 9/10 the rose taste was there and the coffee was just as strong. (It was pricey though). My partner got the chai milk tea. If you like yours creamier, this is the drink for you! It has a nice spice to it :) I would def come back here for the service we got from the dudes at the rental spot! Shoutout to them :D

    A hidden gem! Don't miss this local favorite! What a perfect spot for coffee or breakfast. The views can't be beat, as you are on the lake. They have plenty of outdoor seating to enjoy in good weather. They have a selection of coffee drinks, pastries and sandwiches. And you can also rent paddle boards and outrigger canoes here too!

    Great coffee shop and breakfast/lunch spot. Come earlier in the morning to not have a long wait and to enjoy the peacefulness of the lake. Good options for breakfast and lunch and drinks. Lots of non-coffee options for tea drinkers. Stay and enjoy the outdoor dining as it's gorgeous. Limited parking in lot especially with the outdoor activities so plan ahead.

    vegan and plant based folks with your highfalutin, self-imposed dietary restrictions will be glad to know that you can get an almond milk chai latte here that is every bit as good as one that might've been made with a dairy. They also offer a muffin that is mostly vegan with the exception of the chocolate chips, which may have trace amounts of milk chocolate in there On days where the water & winds are calm and the temperature is favorable You can rent a dirigible water vessel. Thats right! a single kayak can be borrowed for about $35 and a double for something in the range of $50. If two people splitting that would be 25 each which seems very affordable. ambience: there are so many great spots to sit here both inside and out. This is also a pet friendly environment given there's a dog beach right in front of Waterman's. There are benches scattered throughout the trees and it's perfect for doing a little stretching before heading up to the resorts or out on a hike/bike or boat

    My SO, the pups, and I were stoked we found Waterman's Landing next to Patton Beach. This is a cute coffee cafe/shop that serves up your favorite caffeine beverages and brunch items. The shop also has services like kayak rental, and per the barista, they're adding a motorboat service in the summer of 2024. My SO and I asked at the window in the back of the shop if we could bring our hounds in. The barista (I didn't catch her name) was super friendly and let us bring the pups in. DRINKS * Latte - good notes of espresso deliciousness * White Mocha Latte - I ordered this with their homemade almond milk, the only alternative available to dairy creamer/milk. I added some peppermint syrup to make it a peppermint white mocha. I enjoyed it because it wasn't overly sweet. The almond milk was very smooth and tasted delicious. We will return to grab a drink, even lunch, and visit during the summer to check out the kayak service. The dog-friendly beach right behind makes it so much easier with the pups.

    So glad I had this cute little cafe walking distance from my airbnb! Ordered an iced espresso drink which was fine, but the parfait was AMAZING. I don't know if it was the honey, granola, or strawberries, but it was so good that I ate two of them. If you're looking for a lovely place for breakfast or lunch, try it out! If anything, you have a gorgeous view of the lake

    A cozy coffee and breakfast spot right on the water. The coffee was so good! We got a croissant, iced vanilla latte, white mocha and a coffee with a quad shot. They also have a shop with various healthy snacks, such as Laird bars. Going to be back while I'm here on vacation for sure :)

    Burrito

    Amazing cafe on the water in Tahoe Beautiful scene, vibe-y music, water activities, unique tasty coffee ( I had the mushroom macca mocha ) and the food was delicious. I just had the vegan banana muffin and the rest looked amazing as well - also they have giant burritos

    Can't believe this cute coffee shop/paddle board has been here for 12 years. We stay in Tahoe every year & I don't know how we've missed it. Stopped by for a drink on our way back to our room & were pleasantly surprised. Hubby got an Americano & I got a hot chocolate to share with our pup. The place is cute. They sell clothing, jewelry and food that looked yummy (pastry, burritos, etc). They are located right on the water. Dogs are welcome. There is a short paved path to the water with signage to explain the surroundings. Staff were very nice. We will definitely stop by & tell our friends & family!

    I don't usually write an update so soon, but after today's (3/12/26) amazing event, I just had to!!…read moreI am sure you can tell from my excess photos, we shop here too often... We are very loyal customers. Quality/Quantity - Here for the Wax and Watch event DIG. My first time and what an amazing event. Fundraising for so many nonprofits, see pictures. Also sponsored by Fifty Fifty Brewing Co; I had a few too many beers, too good of a time. I also found out about Fifty's Grand opening at RPM, which we also supported and attended the next day, see other Yelp Review. Non alcoholic drinks were also available. Too lazy to have brought our equipment for the wax. Plus Mt Rose gives us each 4 free waxes that I rarely use up. Raffle - We did NOT win. Atmosphere - Clean and organized location. Love the NV art on the side of the building/in the parking lot. Cool! See pictures. Open 7 days a week from 10am to 7pm and on Sundays from 10am to 6pm. Small parking lot, but because we came in off peak (weird) hours, it is rarely an issue for us. And today we got lucky as the lot was full but a car gave us his space. Service - The team is so welcoming and friendly. This is the #1 reason we are loyal customers. Events available - See website. Again, my first but NOT last time that I will attend an event. We will probably come back Sunday for the Mt Rose Passholder Spring Sale. Price - Expensive, but worth the quality, service, and culture. Owner Comment - Congrats on your success since 1973. And thank you for also giving 1% to not-for-profit workers "to defend the earth." And having programs that raise awareness of environmental and social issues. My favorite program is Worn Wear. You can either sell Patagonia your used clothes or trade them in so they can fix it. I believe that reusing is better than recycling. Furthermore, they give you credit ranging from $15 to $150.

We used their online portal to pay for the box and filled out the pre-installation paperwork with photos of where we wanted it installed. We got an email response within a couple business days that there were no issues with the location. Then we received a phone call the day before they installed it. From payment to install was within a week. The box looks like it was installed perfectly. So far, no animals have figured out how to get in. I was a little put off by paying for the whole thing prior to receiving any kind of service. But it worked out great. Pay with a credit card if you're worried about that kind of thing. We put off buying one for years because of the price. I think it would've payed itself off when we compare the cost of the damage we have had to repair due to bears and raccoons. We should've reached out to these guys years ago.

They don't answer their phone and the answer to their newer design handles that the bears can now open is to add another security handle to the newer design. I sent 3 emails and called 5 times, the owner said he "would try to call me". Nope, left me in the lurch to find a solution. If they allocated 1 person for 1 or 2 days a month visiting customers that have problems it would go a long way and they would probably end up with more customers and certainly more happy customers.
