| - CAUTION: Mild ranting to follow...
I went to this coffee shop after having just arrived to the Cosmo, our hotel, after a 5+ hour drive; thus, coffee was a necessity! :)
Anyway, I was happy they had almond milk, BUT dismayed by the price. $7 for a regular almond milk hazelnut latte. In addition, I asked for a cup of water and the barista tried to charge me $.25, so I said forget it. The flavor of the coffee was fine, but it was nothing special. After having Stumptown coffee in New York for cheaper than $7, this was a joke.
I know Vegas is expensive, but there are other coffee shops that will probably be cheaper in Vegas. Some cons, though, are that if you want a flavor shot or almond milk, they charge a lot more. For hazelnut flavor, they charged me like $1.50 and then another $.50-$.75 for the almond milk, which added up to a ridiculous $7+!
...end of rant.
Overall, not worth it. I would venture across the street to the Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf. It is a bit pricey as well with flavor shots and non-dairy milk substitutes but at least they give you a 16 ounce beverage, instead of a double-the-price 12 ounce beverage. If worse comes to worse...can't believe I am saying this...just go to Starbucks...at least you know the price is standard and what to expect.
