Dam Cafe

What a great experience! The second you walk into the cafe, you are greeted with the home-y atmosphere, the smells of deliciousness and the friendliest people ever!! I ordered salmon cream cheese bagel and .. omg! Yum!! Everything is so fresh! It tastes AMAZING too! The portion is great to share but I had it all to myself. My husband got a bacon egg and cheese with an avocado and he loved it too! Chai latte was also out of this world fantastic.. but what makes this place the hit and the place to not miss in Tahoe City is the people! The owners are the friendliest people and have a smile on their face all the time. What a great experience! What a great way to start the day! We will be back!!! If you are reading this, GO STOP THERE!!!

What an experience at Dam Cafe. The staffs are so friendly and super helpful. I ordered breakfast sandwhich and chai tea latte. The food is so soulful, tasty and fills you! So is the beverage. I had the best chai tea latte so far. The owner of the cafe is also so friendly, on our way out she greeted us ans asked if we had a great breakfast! Highly recommend to everyone who visits Tahoe! Also Tahoe Dam is just on the opposite side of the cafe! :) Will visit again when I come to Tahoe!

The best Cappuccino in all of Lake Tahoe. So hard to find baristas who know how to make a classic Cappuccino but this charming little Cafe delivers! Their home made pastries are also a home run!

SO GOOD!! Loved the Salmon Crème Cheese bagel and build your own breakfast sandwich. Iced Latte was perfect.

Had an orange creamsicle smoothie or something like that & a breakfast sandwich - bacon, egg, & cheese on sourdough. Both were really good.

My only complaint is I just noticed I paid over $25 for them both. Seems a bit steep.

Love the Dam Cafe's burritos! One of our favorite lunch spots in Tahoe City. Fresh, quick and the service is excellent. Plus the location is perfect - right by the Truckee River and the historical Fanny Bridge. Can't wait for them to reopen!!

Scone cost $4.82 with tax and was basically a Bisquick biscuit with fruit? (Couldn’t find any fruit except two on top for show). Would be an acceptable addition to the scant egg burrito. Egg was cold, avocado rotten, small serving for $9.00 with tax. Very little seating. Serve yourself coffee. Located on busy road. Two stars instead of one because coffee was good and dog friendly in outside seating.

Lunch and coffee were delicious, filling and perfectly prepared!
Too busy eating before I got a photo of the turkey on sourdough because it was SO good.

Coffee was hot and tasty, plus it was organic if that matters to you. Had a sausage sando on croissant… really tasty for the price. I met the owner and she was awesome! Great place, great vibe!

Such a cute and delicious spot in Tahoe. Great service, great food, great atmosphere, and very vegan friendly! A bit pricey, but it’s expected in Tahoe! I ended up going two days in a row on my trip for a filling breakfast. Both days I ordered a breakfast sandwich with veggie sausage, avocado, tomato, a hash brown, on an everything bagel, with no egg and cheese. I also order a vanilla latte with oat milk and it was the best coffee, I’ve had on this entire trip! Next time I’m in Tahoe, I will definitely be back!
