I sample a lot of quick breakfast at the cafes around town and the Crest definitely gets an award! I was hooked on the Bomb Sando, but now gravitate to the Brunch Burrito with grilled veggies probably twice a week

The breakfast bowl with chorizo bacon was great, as were the Mayan mochas and the bomb sando!

A Spicy Start to the Day at Crest Cafe & CateringCrest Cafe & Catering turned a regular morning into an unexpectedly delightful experience. In need of a quick breakfast fix, I swung by this cozy spot for a breakfast burrito and a drink with a personal twist – the "Angry Dirty Chai Tea Latte," a concoction I dreamed up back in Tucson.Initially met with a puzzled look from the barista, my request for a dirty chai latte spiked with cayenne pepper (to add that 'angry' kick) soon turned into an exciting challenge for her. She crafted the drink with enthusiasm, and the result? A perfectly spicy, warming beverage that hit all the right notes.The breakfast burrito was another win – packed with flavor and just the right amount of comfort to start the day. It's these little culinary victories that make Crest Cafe & Catering a go-to place for anyone in need of a quick, satisfying bite."For a fiery twist on your morning routine, Crest Cafe & Catering serves up the heat!"

I strongly support any independent restaurant doing business in Alpine Meadows. But it is tryingly difficult getting lunch from Crest Cafe. The problems are threefold: Fairly unreliable weekday hours, mostly not answering the phone for pre-orders, and for pick-up orders that do work out, there's a single general line for new orders and pick-ups. Consequently it is mostly not possible to get lunch done in 30 minutes, since pre-ordering is a low probability and the line. Unfortunately that means I can't eat at Crest Cafe, even though I'd prefer to get take-out from them probably 10 days a year.

I was just there yesterday and when there to get breakfast with my two other friends. It was a small hidden gem and definitely recommended to visit when you are visiting Lake Tahoe. The price was really reasonable, staff and vibes was great feel like you have a secluded getaway. The pancakes and waffle are huge, we are all stuff when we done with it, the food and the drink was great. Even in cold weather I like to drink cold instead of hot drink and they still recommended it. I also buy one sticker from them as well. Is a souvenirs to remind me of the great experience of this venue. Highly recommended.

Cute little cafe. They have breakfast pizzas, breakfast burritos & sandwiches. We shared a ham & cheese on a bagel. It was delicious. They are located right on the Truckee River. Very friendly customer service. We will definitely recommend & come back!
