Old World Coffee Lab - Midtown

Nice espresso served with sparking water. Modern ambiance that feels a little on the low-budget side. Not the comfiest spot to sit and read, but friendly staff and plenty of seats. When I was there I saw a few people sitting around chatting with friends, a few working on laptops.

Very nice cortado. Yummy pastries and waffle. Fast WiFi and super friendly staff (maybe a bit too chatty?). Great place!

Incredible coffee to start with, paired with a Modbar setup really guarantees an exceptional cup each time! They have the hip vibe and clean aesthetic down, and with a bit more training should be able to hone in on consistency in pours.

Best cappuccino in Reno, best service, most chill. Wonderful light comes through the big windows to illuminate a crisp, clean decor that invites you to sit and relax. A hip establishment without the hipster attitude. They will make a decaf cappuccino with a smile (try that at some other places...). Thank you Old World 🙌

Very trendy hipster spot with excellent coffee! Careful if you're mobility is limited an their floors aren't all that even. Most of the shop is fine just by a door that not in use (close enough where if you're at a close by table your chair will teeter) and the bathroom. I got a latte and my wife got a drip black coffee, we both enjoyed our drinks very much.

good coffee but $1 for oatmilk is absurd

reply is gaslighting me. one cup of whole milk is $4.41 per gallon (at the grocery store, not wholesale). so $0.28 for a cup. let's imagine my 12 oz latte contained 8 oz of oatmilk. okay then a half gallon of oatmilk is $5.29 per half gallon at the grocery store (again not wholesale, which would be cheaper), so $0.66 for 8 oz. this is only $0.38 more than whole milk, not $1.00. am i doing the math wrong?

We stopped here driving through town. The single origin espresso, cold brew tonic, and pour over were all excellent.

The decaf Mocha Drogata is well worth crossing the ice for. At least there’s a little grit on it, so the coefficient of friction is maybe 0.01.

I ordered a Vanilla Lavender Latte over 10 minutes ago paid in cash and gave a tip. Six people came in behind me…they have ALL been served and seem to be enjoying their coffees. I am completely disappointed and dissatisfied with this place. Wondering why? The girl who took my order looked straight at me a couple of times. 🤔 I ’ll make sure to let others know how I was completely ignored/forgotten. If I could give negative stars I really would. I would rather be at one of the big corporations and be enjoying my coffee instead of here…trying to support local. I will find a better place to go. I did get a full refund including the tip…I guess there’s that.

Overall, great place. They are bike friendly and they allow your road bike to be placed inside if you don’t feel comfortable leaving your very expensive bike outside. The coffee is always on point, and the pastries are always looking good.
