Ernie's Coffee Shop

Placed a pickup order of a sandwich only! And it took them 45 mins to make it.
When asked about it, everyone responded with different time frames. We clearly felt discriminated.
DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE.

Updated: Thank you Kent for acknowledging the fact that the service was slow. However please understand that I showed patience for 45 mins and everytime I asked for the order update I got a rude and cold reply from your staff. The reason why I had to write this post on discrimination is because when a “white customer“ asked the same staff replied politely and kindly to them. So please forgive me but I felt discriminated and I thought it is important for you to train your staff to treat all equally.

There was one staff who did reply nicely but the other 3 staff members were cold and rude. Especially the person who was taking all the orders that day was very rude.

Excellent place!!! Its been a hometown staple ever since I was brought into this world!!! Mon used to work there, great prices and a real home feeling. Great customer service and good cooks. If your reading this right now you are missing out on some Excellent country fried chicken and biscuits and gravy, with a side off flashbacks. Get in gear and make your order!!!

Ernie's has great food ,clean atmosphere and excellent staff. I recommend their coffee , You can always take a bag of their fresh coffee beans home..& is located only nine miles away from the lake .

We stopped by to pick up Coffee to-go based on some blogger recommendations. It was pretty busy with late breakfast crowd. Staff may or may not be wearing masks!

Very pleased with my meal. Delicious potatoes and tasty gluten free toast. The service was great, super friendly and attentive.

This place has absolutely delicious food! The orange juice tastes fresh squeezed.
Hands down the best food we have had since the start of our 2000 mile trip
Ernies you rock!!!

The food was amazing. The service was incredible. Our party of 6 didn't have a single complaint. The Travel Circus will DEFINITELY be back if we're ever in tahoe again.

We were really looking forward to this place for breakfast but some of the staff were not friendly at all. Can’t even ask a question without a rude response. We get it, it was extremely busy but at least be kind in your tone of voice. Besides that our waitress was really nice and the food was good.

warning: ask for prices of everything, including coffee, before saying yes. coffee was extra cost, and fruits on waffle was extra cost even though we asked for half half.

when we mentioned the unknown charge for coffee, the cashier looked at us and said “i don’t know where you’re from but you got to pay for coffee.”
we’re asians from san francisco. i’ll leave it at that.

it was decent breakfast food, and service was on par.

Ernies is still and always be the best breakfast spot in town. Worth the stop on the way in or out of town.
