1. The shop is named after the most trafficked animal in the world to bring awareness of its threatened life to the public.
In efforts to help save this endangered species, Cafe Pangolin donates a portion of their profits to savepangolins.org.
To me, a business that works so hard in making a difference is an amazing business worth supporting.
2. The taste and quality of their drinks and food are superb.
I worked at Seattle’s Best Coffee and Starbucks waaay back in the day when I was in college, and between work and visits to big foodie cities, I had the opportunity to taste so many different types of coffees and teas. I quickly learned that all coffees and teas are not created equal.
Just like fruits and vegetables, there are different levels of taste and quality. Coffee beans and teas grown in ideal conditions, with the right soils and nutrients, can develop more complex flavors and characteristics compared to their counterparts.
Just by looking at and smelling Pangolin’s loose leaf teas, I can tell they pack plenty of flavor. Based solely on their appearance and aroma, they remind me of the high quality loose leaf teas I’ve enjoyed at popular tea bars/houses in San Francisco.
I do know that their Matcha Green Tea is high quality. The flavor was outstanding in their Maple Matcha Latte. A lot of places may skimp on matcha because of its high cost, but definitely not Pangolin. You can taste the matcha in every sip.
At first taste, I knew that what I was experiencing at Pangolin was quality. And the same goes for their confections called Turkish Delights.

3. Their drinks and food are works or art.
While my priority is taste when it comes to food, I am not complaining that Cafe Pangolin not only brings taste, but presentation as well. We do eat with all of our senses, after all.
4. They have the perfect ambiance.
On many visits, I've witnessed so many people at the shop working on their laptops and and having a great time with family & friends. Their modern styled business is super classy, laid out with lots of great details, including Thomas Edison-style lights and real and hip house plants. It's such an inviting and cozy atmosphere, especially during the day when the sunlight shines through the windows.
5. They support local businesses just like themselves.
If there's one thing I love about Reno, it's the loving and caring community and their willingness and didcation in supporting one another, especially through tough times.

| Seasonal Items As of Oct. 2021 |
6. They go out of their way to create seasonal items for the enjoyment of their customers.
There's nothing like getting into the holidays and seasons with seasonal treats that capture the flavors and feeling of the time of year.
It takes great effort for businesses to keep up with seasonal items. They have to take the time to create recipes while keeping up with trends, advertise, estimate demand, and order supplies and specialty ingredients. All of that work goes on behind the scenes just to give customers something new and exciting to look forward to with each season. I really appreciate businesses that put in the extra effort to create these special items because it makes each visit feel a little more fun and gives us another reason to come back and see what they come up with next.7. You can place orders online.
Order ahead online and pick up treats and drinks at your convenience.

Sea Salt Chocolate Dipped Toffee is Out of This World! |

| Turkish Delights are Delightful |
10. Their housemade confections are out of this world, and you get one free with every drink.
Their handcrafted Turkish Delights & Toffee are so stinkin good, and they come in so many fun and rad flavors!
What is a Turkish Delight? It’s a chewy confection made with a base of cornstarch and simple syrup, which is made from water and sugar, with a wide array of flavors added. They are then coated with cornstarch and/or powdered sugar. They are so fun and flavorful, with just the right amount of sweetness. I’ve had these candies at many other places, but they just don’t compare to Pangolin’s. |
11. They ship througout the USA. Is there anything better or more convenient than having this gifting option available 24/7 for those times when we need it most? It’s a thoughtful gift that goes a long way and makes it easy to brighten someone’s day, even when you’re short on time. |
