Wild Cherries Coffee House

Average cafe. Counter service. Breakfast sandwich is okay--better than fast food. Smoothie didnt taste fresh but was okay. Decent espresso. Lots of floor space taken up by merchandise (tshirts and hats for tourist sales) while the tables are crowded into a small space plus some high tops.

Hands down the best blueberry croissant in the world. We all had something different, it was all exceptionally good. Fresh baked breads and pastries, and bagels. The vegetarian chilli was great with the chips. My caramel latte was pretty good as well.

Very busy, but worth the wait! Have some patience. Here's what the lemon bar looks like. Rich and decadent. Vegan chili and cornbread is really delicious 😋 too. I like the hot chai latte. They have many choices.

I found myself exploring the Truckee area after finishing a hike, I was thirsty and wanted a small bite- sadly I got neither as I strolled into Wild Cherries. The place was cozy with a lovely outside seating area. I immediately didn’t care for the “order at the counter” method they have going on. (My personal preference is to sit with available waitstaff) Needless of my feelings I was already there. The next inconvenience was nothing on their menu was cooked to order, it was sandwiches, wraps, quiches, pastries, etc. (for some this may not be an issue) The reason why I did not get to eat was because the line was literally out the door and the staff was in chill vibe, but given it’s a vacation hot-spot I can somewhat understand. I however was not inclined to wait. I felt a need to just provide you feedback on what to expect & what they offer. Please help yourself if you have more patience than me. Happy Waiting!!

Wild Cherries Coffee Shop sets the gold standard for coffee and service in the entire Lake Tahoe region. In a landscape full of options, they stand completely unmatched when it comes to the quality of their brews and the warmth of their hospitality. Their Blueberry Cream pastries are nothing short of divine—rich, fresh, and incredibly flavorful. It’s not an exaggeration to say they are among the best pastries I’ve had anywhere, not just in Tahoe. If you’re searching for top-tier coffee and unforgettable baked goods, Wild Cherries is truly in a league of its own. You simply won’t find this level of quality anywhere else in the area.
