Nevada Joe Coffee on Main
1572 U.S. Hwy 395 N, South Lake Tahoe, CA
Crema's Take
“Nestled right on South Lake Tahoe's Main Street, this espresso-focused spot has mastered the art of balancing speed with quality, making it perfect for both morning commuters hitting the drive-thru and locals lingering over a cinnamon roll latte. Their signature creative drinks shine with thoughtful touches like generous sugar-free options and carefully calibrated sweetness levels, while their pastries—particularly the homemade cream cheese danish—elevate what could be a quick grab into something genuinely memorable. The consistently warm hospitality from the team makes them the kind of place where they'll remake your drink with a smile even when you arrive 30 minutes before closing.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with creative signature drinks. A quick-grab spot, good for meetings. Pastries on the menu. Family friendly. Drive-thru.

Legitimately some of the best coffee I’ve ever had. Customer service is really good too, I pulled in about 30 mins before they closed not realizing and they were really nice. They even remade my drink even though it was my fault I forgot to ask for it iced. Totally recommend.
This drive through coffee shop was so good! The homemade cream cheese danish was the best I've had from anywhere. They had a wide range of coffee options and flavors, the friendly staff answered all our questions, and we got our order in a timely manner.
I love this coffee. I would come here every morning if I lived here. They are small yet that's what gives it great character. Great service, many drink options, fantastic food, I can't get enough of it. I'm already ordering my next drink. I'm sad that I am leaving tomorrow, but…
