Basecamp Coffee Company

Great coffee! Great service! When we are in town we will be back!

My normal coffee place, starbucks, had an issue with their system today but I was in bad need of coffee so I decided to try this place. Most places do not know what a ristretto shot is or how to pull a short shot of espresso which is similar to ristretto but when I asked the lady at the counter she said that even though it's a rare request they can accommodate it. I ordered the coffee with low expectations. I got cinnamon, vanilla syrup, two shots of ristretto and oat milk. It did not disappoint! Granted, it was a little bit more expensive than what I normally pay at Starbucks but you can tell that the baristas take their time when making the coffee. The only thing that I would suggest would be to offer a bigger coffee menu by offering different flavor syrups or styles like a flat white, a latte, cappuccino, etc. Other than that, they are definitely my favorite backup when I can't get my Starbucks.

Loved this place! Plenty of room to spread out. Lots of tables to work at if you want. Very relaxed and pleasant atmosphere. BTW the coffee is excellent and not overpriced. Definitely a go to place.

Super friendly service and delicious food/drink!

Definitely try it!! 👌

I came to Basecamp initially for coffee. The baristas right away greeted us very enthusiastically and told us to try their homemade Tamales. My friend and I decided to order them and we were left absolutely amazed by such a great texture, flavor, and unique taste. I look forward to coming back on my next visit to South Lake Tahoe.

Coffee is pretty good most of the time, but the lack of COVID precautions is appalling. No masks, no wiping of tables, very little social distancing, and the staff will serve you and make your order without masks. During my last visit I watched a member of the staff taste test a drink before handing it to a unknowing customer. The staff is friendly with the exception of one extremely rude individual and the service is very slow. And this all depends on whether or not you can find parking anywhere without your car being hit. I am all for supporting local but after seeing the way this establishment shows how little they truly care about the Heath and safety of both their staff and costumers I will not be back.

I tend to go into base camp every once in a while, but the few times I do I’m always kindly greeted by this barista Marissa. Marissa is always super nice and really helped me find a coffee I like. (I’m not much of a coffee drinker.) She really put my likes and interests into choosing the correct blend for me and gave me a great drink! Love the relaxing atmosphere, but most importantly love Marissa for introducing a new coffee to me!

It was our first time there. Good coffee and pastries were yummy.

i love basecamp and come here often. the baristas are always so kind. however, it’s been extremely disappointing to see the two people who i presume to be the owners continually serve customers and make drinks without masks. From my observation, all of their employees follow mask protocol, as required by the city, so i feel like owners should set the standard for their employees. They mentioned in a previous review that their employees are required to wear masks when serving customers, so i simply don’t understand why the same doesn’t apply to the owners. hopefully this has changed because I really do love coming here and want to feel safe doing so!

Good coffee, average food!
I ordered an iced oat milk latte, avocado toast and carrots and hummus on Uber eats. The latte was delicious, however the baby carrots were covered in slime! They were so slimy they literally slipped out of my hand as I picked one up. They must have been out of date or needed to replaced, I ended up not eating them in fear of them making me sick! I also got the avocado toast, it was just okay, could definitely have been more toasted and needed salt so badly! Everything but the bagel seasoning does not contain salt I do not believe. For $6.50, i could’ve made a better avocado toast at home.
