I really like their newly expended space. There are big windows and good lighting. The coffee is roasted in house and taste good!

I ordered a coffee sampler box last month, specifying the 4 different roasts I wanted to try. Two of the four were wrong, one of which was technically my fault because I misinterpreted the choice (thinking "Roasters Choice" was the name and not the roaster chooses for you).

Bare Roots is our favorite coffee house in South Lake Tahoe, or anywhere. The beans are roasted in house, and you can taste the love and care. There are delicious and fun seasonal offerings. And specialty syrups are also made in house. Blackberry Mocha is my go to and I always recommend it, but everything is good.

"5 stars for the bomb coffee and the service! Bare Roots has a great local vibe with plants, art, and sunny outdoor seating. The barista was so helpful with local recommendations for dinner and sunsets. We loved the iced coconut mocha, cappuccino and the fact that they don't charge extra for alternative milk.
