Whether you're drawn in by their carefully crafted specialty drinks, fresh pastries, or simply the warm, unhurried atmosphere, Cuppa Tahoe feels less like a caffeine pit stop and more like a beloved gathering place where locals and travelers alike find themselves staying far longer than planned.”

What a cool little coffee shop! From the vast selection of delicious brewed coffee’s and freshly made pastries, to the gift shop and reading nooks throughout the store, Cuppa Tahoe is a great place to stop for a bite, a sip or to relax. The staff is experienced and helpful in guiding you to the right flavor profile to fit your palette. There’s ample seating located both inside and outside of the shop, so you’ll have no issue finding a place to sit. The gift shop area has a large selection of odds and ends for both the tourist and locals. Overall, one of the best coffee shops in the Lake Tahoe region.
Cuppa Tahoe has amazing ambiance, coffees, cozy nooks, and lots and lots of books!! It's just what a coffee place should be, a place that invites you to read and enjoy a delicious coffee. I had a Brown Sugar Bourbon Latte and it was great, not super sweet. As you can guess, it is very popular but I highly recommend a visit!

One of my favorite coffee shops I have ever been to! You walk in and you are instantly amazed by the books/reading areas, smell of coffee, the beautiful atmosphere and everything they sell! I love how ecofriendly they are with their innovative cups and to go utensils! I wish there were mote places like this in other cities!
i would give cuppa tahoe 25 stars out of 5 if i could. everything about this gem of a bookstore, coffee shop, and co-working space is above and beyond. the staff is friendly and knowledgable, cheerful and warm. their homemade pumpkin spice blend with the excellent chai was the best i've ever had and i was able to find creative one of a kind gifts. the co-working space is unmatched and they have a fantastic process for signing in and out, getting drinks delivered, etc. i would literally fly back to tahoe from my home in portland, Or just to return to cuppa tahoe. don't miss your chance to visit this gem!
