Free Bird Chai

Yummmm! This chai coffee shop was recommended by a friend and it lived up to the hype. I got the Dirty and it was spectacular. I also like how you can bring your own cup in and they’ll put your drink in it. Loved the plants strewn across the shop.

Very good chai tea, but not the best I’ve ever had. They have an assortment of chia tea to try, per their namesake.

Not good at all. I ordered Yerba, the flavour of cinnamon and cardamom was so strong that it'll make your taste buds go numb to taste any other things. So I had to throw it. Good luck!

The Iowa gal taking our order suggested THEE BEST breakfast/lunch place! The Getaway Cafe
We were gonna leave 5 stars and the photo anyways but she was fantastic energy and conversation. Smiley gal. She is a good asset to your cute little smoothie joint.
Thank you! 🙂🦋

I needed a place to sit and work as my route to work was closed due to weather. I wanted a local place and thought I should try those place out. I had the Original chai which was quite good with lots of flavor. The two gentlemen working there was very friendly and welcoming.
I would definitely recommend and visit this establishment again.

Wonder breakfast with great customer service. The establishment was packed and lively for a Thursday morning. Our food came out in lightning speed, piping hot and very tasty. We never had to ask for more coffee. The best breakfast we've had on our visit to South Lake Tahoe.

Excellent chai with different flavors and choices. We got the Roots and Dirty both with oat milk.

We're not from Tahoe but will be saving this in our maps for recommendations to others.

Side note, the owner is nice, helpful and talkative.

I had a cold brew with light ice. It was perfectly strong without being bitter.

The staff was friendly and the service was quick.

It's a bright, well lit place inside of red hut with a few places to sit.

Great atmosphere and amazing chai. I also loved the plant decor.

After traveling most of the country from east coast to west I can say that I have sampled some of the finest cups of Chai. This unfortunately wasn't one of them. The Chai was ok at best but I wouldn't rush out to spend $5 to $6 on it again. Some places I would. Like Bean & Brew in Tonopah, or The Foundation Coffee House in Tampa, FL. My recommendation to the owner is to get out and sample some of the world's Chai then hone your recipe. Your heart is in the right place, but the recipe isn't quite there yet. It may pass the test of many who haven't had better, but for seasons drinkers it's okay at best. Good Luck.
