Perenn at Rancharrah - Reno, Nevada

Jacqueline Sepulveda

Estuve un mes en Reno y fue muy difícil encontrar buenas cafeterías. Este lugar me gustó el café, el matcha, el pan, el servicio. Lo único malo es que hay mucha gente, aún así está lindo para ir con pareja o amigos.

Tienen una gran variedad de pan, todo es exquisito, tienen postres para hornear en casa, el budín muy recomendado, su baguette siempre fresco, y tienen un delicioso café, su personal amable y el lugar tiene opción de desayunar en la terraza. La mejor cafetería en Reno.

Perenn has a lot of potential to be great, but after coming here regularly for the last few months has made me question that.

Let's start with the good:

Atmosphere: Aesthetically pleasing on the inside, fairly spacious

Food: One of the very few places that has different options for breakfast that isn't the basic American breakfast combo.

Service: Friendly staff

The bad:

Atmosphere: Gets very loud, especially when they get busy. Tip: google gives you their "busy times" so you know when to avoid the crowds.

Food: Incredibly inconsistent with quantity and warmth. I've had times where the food came out promptly and you didn't feel like they "skimped" on the food you paid for. Other times, it felt like they were scraping the bottom of the bowl and without a care gave it to you stone cold. Perhaps due to different cooks working that day and/or gets overwhelming with the crowds. Regardless, a restaurant that is managed well can still be consistent.

Service: 99% of the time that I have come, the tables are not wiped even though they've been cleared off. Would be good if they had at least 2 people assigned to buss the tables, one being on the "floor" at all times during the busier times.

From my observations, lack of staff, organization, and proper operations contributes to poor quality and service. For how much you pay for, this place is mediocre in my mind. A matcha latte and Turkish eggs come to $30-ish in total before tip. If a business is charging that much, then I expect better. It's sad that local businesses like this attract a large number of people for the "uniqueness" but in the end can't seem to uphold a certain standard that they so promise in their mission.

However, due to the very limited options in Reno, I will continue to come here. Just less often and earlier in the day.

Our people: "our team members' hard work truly makes a difference and helps us in our pursuit of unsurpassed quality".

Attached are some photos, did not take pics with every visit.

Lemon ricotta pancakes, variations of the crunchy brunch potatoes (extra egg, side of bacon, mushrooms instead of the bacon jam), and Turkish eggs.

Not worth $70. The chicken breast was tough, service was slow (had to bus own table), and seating was worse than a diner (3 people to a 2 top). The coffee with French baking spices was good.

This is the best vanilla crème brûlée and croissant I’ve ever had. I really miss that flavor after returning to Taiwan—it was absolutely delicious. Next time I visit Reno, I definitely have to buy it again.

If I could give 10 stars I would.
The food and atmosphere are perfect. The Turkish eggs are my favorite. The pastry selection is amazing and their rotating coffee menu is so fun.
Bring your family, bring out of town guests, sure to impress and leave with memories made.

Expect to spend $$$$ though. Hard to get out of there under $30.

We stopped by for a quick brunch before golf. I chose it after seeing the reviews, but it's really long. But so many of the staff are fast moving. The elderly couple at the table next to us said they waited for more than 30 minutes, but we were served in about 10 minutes. As a croissant obsessive, the classic croissant scores 9 out of 10. The wait can be a bit long, but you can get service from very friendly staff. However, it was unusual that the tip was already included in the bill. I really liked the bright, high ceiling interior. If you are visiting Reno, I highly recommend a visit.

For a place this expensive and in a relatively nicer area I had much higher standards. I was aware that I would have to wait in a line to order my food because I checked beforehand but the food itself was OK at best, we had to wait for 20 minutes and seat OURSELVES, not to mention there was no one cleaning the tables, no joke everyone was just ravaging around waiting to see when a spot was made available. The atmosphere online was made to look very serene and aesthetic, only to show up and everything is so unorganized and hectic. Not to mention the etiquette as well, they just let anybody in there I guess. Please don’t waste your money here, I’ve been to Starbucks nicer than this place.
