Kudos to alex , and DJ for making good coffee and other staffs as well! When we say it’s good coffee, it’s good! (Been going to diff coffee shops in diff states

This is my favorite espresso spot in all of Reno and I have been to all of them. The people are incredibly friendly and welcoming and non-pretentious. If you like good music and a warm environment and the great smell of waffles you have to come into Old World coffee lab.

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.

Local coffee shop at its finest. From the specialty espresso machines to the single origin coffee beans, this place embraces what a genuine coffee shop is. My matcha latte and my fiancé’s chai were awesome. Made with whole milk and lots of love. Nothing is too pricey, but it’s not the cheapest coffee bar I’ve been too either. Overall, absolutely worth what you pay. There’s also plenty of seating and good light to get work done. I’ll be back with my stuff soon.

Old World Coffee is a solid contender in the emerging Reno third wave coffee scene. Located on trendy California street, steps from the main drag of Midtown, it offers excellent coffee and a clean atmosphere to study, relax, and sip on your joe. OWC roasts their own beans at a separate location and you can purchase all their offerings in store. The baristas know their stuff and make a consistent pour, a hallmark of any legitimate third wave spot. Along with the coffee essentials, they have a small offering of baked goods sourced from a local bakery called Butter Salt. The price for a standard latte is $4.50, slightly higher than other places in town, but still in a similar price range. The interior design is clean and modern with wood accents to add a bit of warmth. There are several tables and ample space to spread out and not be distracted by other patrons; great for individual or group work. They have decent WiFi (tested 20 down 5 up) and upbeat background music. It's a place that screams productivity, where you can clear your mind and get stuff done. It doesn't, however, have big comfortable couches to relax on, so don't expect a winter lodge vibe. Old World Coffee is a great place for coffee enthusiasts, for sure I'll be returning.
