Tres Gatos Coffee

What a nice, hip cafe in a quiet neighborhood in Midvale! It looks like something I would expect to see closer to the downtown area. We came here because it was halfway between a friend and our locations. Additionally, I was interested in the house made chai and vegan and gluten-free baked goods, which are rare finds in south Salt Lake. The cafe had ample seating and a nice ambiance, minus the construction work going on outside. Service was fast and friendly- a staff member even ran out to me after I had forgotten my fanny pack. As far as the chai, it was a little sweet for my taste, but I am pleased at their nondairy milk options. I enjoyed the three varieties of vegan and GF muffins. Having baked a fair amount of vegan and GF things myself, the muffins were great considering they were gluten-free. Overall, this place is great to meet up with friends and very dietary restriction inclusive, and I would be happy to come back to try out more of their drink options.

This coffee shop is really cute, and has indoor and outdoor seating. There's even dog parking! So they do encourage dogs hanging around outside with their humans they just can't come inside unless they are service dogs. The staff are friendly and the menu offers a wide variety of items. There's definitely some unique options. I tried one that had peanut butter and peppermint. (Holiday flavor.) The flavors weren't too strong so unfortunately I couldn't taste that part very well. But the coffee itself was good. I also did try an iced matcha that was pretty good. Next time, I want to try their own, house majnteevaon They advertise their homemade Chai a lot. I need to try it next time!!!

Hidden gem! Another great local coffee spot in Utah! They have street parking and a small parking lot in the back. The inside is very small but cozy. The staff is extremely friendly and kind. They have a drive through for convenience. I had the iced salted vanilla latte with oat milk and it was really good.

It's a cute little coffee shop with indoor and outdoor seating. Pets are not allowed inside but they are outside, and the front is kind of fenced off. Parking can be a little tricky but not impossible. They close at 3 on weekdays and 5 on Saturday, but double check before you go. They have a selection of sweet and savory treats but I didn't get any today. I got an iced medium chocolate donut drink with toasted marshmallow cold foam from their seasonal menu. The ice is crushed and I don't mind. Drink was about $7-ish and I think cold foam was $1 extra. It was really good, not too sweet and not too watered down. The toasted marshmallow tasted a little more on the coconut side but it was still delicious. I follow them on Instagram and they post daily different fun drink combos. So I like how customizable drinks are here. The woman taking my order was super nice. And the tip amount on the iPad starts at 18%. I didn't super pay attention but I'm sure you can do custom amounts too.

I was hoping to find some cats, but instead I found a lovely coffee shop on a darling tree-lined street in Midvale. I'll forgive the bait-and-switch since the coffee was absolutely phenomenal. I think the word has gotten out, since there was a steady flow of people Saturday morning in the shop. Service is friendly and quick, and the drip medium roast was delicious. Although I was here in the cold of winter, I noticed that there is outdoor seating. I could see myself sitting out there on a summer morning, sipping on a cup of Joe while waiting for the gatos to show up. It's probably more likely that there would be a dog sitting out there, which I'm equally happy about.
