Driftwood Cafe
1001 Heavenly Village Way #1a, South Lake Tahoe, CA
Crema's Take
“Nestled in South Lake Tahoe, this casual gathering spot wins hearts with its warm, character-filled interior and genuinely friendly atmosphere that keeps regulars coming back. The full breakfast menu and fresh pastries pair nicely with their mocha, making it an ideal spot to linger over coffee before heading into the mountains, though expect traditional American fare rather than adventurous specialty drinks.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly. Wifi.
