Dam Roast House & Browder Bookstore

We liked this spot. Coffee was great and we enjoyed the breakfast options we went for. From the things we tried, the breakfast sandwich was our favorite. The decoration is fresh and airy which felt nice and different compared to all the other places we went to at Boulder City. The book store has very diverse books and I also noticed items for sale made locally.

I stumbled upon this coffee shop while exploring the neighborhood, and I’m so glad I did! The moment I walked in, I was greeted with the smell of fresh espresso and warm pastries. The vibe is cozy and relaxed, with plenty of seating, soft music, and perfect for studying or catching up with friends. I ordered an affgato and an Almond Butter cake . Both were excellent. The Affgato was smooth and perfectly balanced, not bitter at all. You can tell they use quality beans and know what they’re doing behind the bar.

We came here because we love books and the good looked great! Unfortunately the book selection wasn't very good. A lot of new age stuff. Religious books in the fiction section, no classics, no kid books. Food was delicious! And they had a nice variety of coffee drinks. Expensive, but close to average for coffee shops. Decent customer service. Tables were dirty, which they saw when they put our drinks down next to a big sticky spot. They didn't clean it. So we moved to their big table.

After lunch coffee stop while visiting Boulder City. Server behind the counter was friendly and greeted us with a smile. We ordered four Iced Coffee’s. My friend said he had coffee grinds and he had to stop and spit them out several times. My hubby said his was very weak tasting.

Cute place to visit if you're headed to Hoover Dam. They offer some unique coffees and food selections. The book section is very small though, but they do highlight local authors which is nice.

soo cute and literally made for me. first of all board games - i love mancala. smores latte? i thought it was toasted marshmallow syrup. i get a REAL toasted marshmallow. in heaven. i do NOT play about toasted marshmallows. i also ordered the almond butter & berry toast. one of my favorite combos ever is almond butter and blueberry. so so so good unfortunately i am just visiting so i have to return to the disgusting hell hole that is coastal mississippi and yearn for something as cozy and inclusive, fresh as this.

This is a cute little place in Boulder City on their main drag. It has fun coffee drinks and some lighter fare along with pastries. My wife and I ordered some of their toasts from their menu and some bottled soda. My wife really enjoyed her toast that was sweet with bluberries and strawberries and an option of gluten free bread. My toast looked fancier with arugala, egg, and cheese. There was a vinigrette drizzled atop my toast as well. While my toast looked lovely, it was bland and had no flavor. I won't order that again and that leaves my vegetarian options there at a minimum. They should add some flavor to the egg, leave off the tasteless arugala, add some spice... something. The soda my wife had was really good also, huckleberry, my peach cream soda was just okay.

Great coffee, adorable inside, love the book store, offers a nice selection of pastries from local bakers. Enjoyed a live music performer today with my iced espresso, both refreshing. New in town and have tried several other shops, and this keeps being our go to place. Skip the line at Starbucks for sure, you wont be disappointed. Well done. 😎

This little coffee shop is an absolute gem! Tucked away in a small town, it has all the cozy charm you'd hope for and more. The menu is impressively diverse for a place its size offering everything from classic coffee drinks to creative seasonal specials, matcha, and even fun dessert options. Whether you're in the mood for a strong espresso or something sweet and creamy, you'll find something to love. One of the best parts? They don't just stop at coffee and treats they also sell adorable little trinkets like rings and other small gifts, which makes it feel part café, part boutique. It's the kind of place you wander into for a latte and end up leaving with a cute ring and a slice of cake you didn't know you needed. The vibe is warm and welcoming, with friendly staff who clearly care about both their drinks and their customers. It's the kind of place you could spend hours in whether catching up with a friend or enjoying some quiet time. Definitely worth a stop if you're passing through (or lucky enough to live nearby!).

Went to Hoover Dam but it was closed for a special occasion so we headed to Boulder City to kill some time. Found this place and popped in for a coffee and to browse the books. Coffee was very good, got a cold brew with cream and it was yummy. All our coffees were good. Service was good, moved fast Book store is very small. Nice selection of stuff but not a lot of books

everyone here is so kind! i love that there's a bookstore coffee shop together. i'm obsessed. i ordered the cinnamon toast latte iced and i can't wait to try it! i also got a blind date with a book, i'll let you guys know how it goes. update: it's SO DELICIOUS!! i will be back!

I love coming to Dam roast house when I'm in Boulder City. It has a really chill vibe, the baristas are always really helpful and there are so many yummy drinks! I recently got the butterbeer latte and a toast. I forgot what it was called, but it had almond butter, fruit, granola and honey. It was so so good. Definitely come check out this cute coffee shop! They also have really cute random things you can buy.

Very nice coffee shop! Wish they were in my home town! Love the vibe. Very nice staff and customers. My coffee latte was to perfection . Honey lavender with coconut and almond milk mix . Excellent! Thank you

"Dam!" ;) Super cute and cozy coffee shop within Downtown Boulder City. But not just any coffee shop, a bookstore and children's nook as well! I opted for the Pineapple Express smoothie (strawberry, pineapple, banana, & coconut) & the All Mashed Up (open faced avocado toast, tomatoes, feta, greens & balsamic glaze). Both of which were a 5 out of 5 and would get again! There were plenty of seats, in couch form or chair. The noise level was not loud, so perfect for anyone who likes to study or get work done. The mini bookstore consisted of new and used books with some card games, candles, and mugs for sale. The mini children's nook with children's books and games was such a unique corner. Definitely a well needed stop here, perfect for a quick coffee or snack for the family or just some simple alone time.

Great coffee, cute kids corner, nice vegan options. We needed something better than a Starbucks to power out road trip and Dam Roast House provided! They also very helpfully filled 5 water bottles with ice water in preparation for our dam outing. The oat milk was a creamy barista blend - fellow oat milk drinkers, have you noticed other coffee shops going with cheaper watery oat milks - yuck? Not dam roast house, you'll find quality milk alternatives and flavorful espresso here. We got hot drinks and some vegan quick breads for the family and made quick work of them while our baby was thrilled to get a break from his car seat to play with the toys in the kids corner. The only downside was the banana bread had a touch of freezer burn flavor - it must be batch baked. The zucchini bread and coffee cake were perfection, home baked taste complete with freshly milled flax eggs. And the vegan breakfast sandwich sounded tempting - not an afterthought but a great menu item in its own right with arugula, just egg and maybe a tomato chutney?

Get in on this gem. Mostly locally sources. Coffee is incredible. Staff is always pleasant and courteous. Prices are average. The vibe is great. Seating area is pretty big for a coffee cafe and super clean. Bookstore is open and attached. Great location entering into BC. They have a wide selection so, if you're into straight black coffee (I recommend) or boujee drinks, they'll have you covered. Try there not so secret secret menu as well. If you want something a bit different, my go to is either their Honeybee Latte (iced or hot) or their chai tea (iced or hot). You won't be disappointed.

A Dam authentic local coffee shop with an EXCELLENT library, quality coffee and tasty food. I thoroughly enjoyed the egg and bacon on ciabatta bread smeared with deli mustard. My cold brew with heavy cream was delightful - no complaints, lots of praise. My only issue, no refills on coffee. Knowing how cheap it is, I was disappointed the barista wouldn't support my caffeine addiction without another $5 purchase... Starbucks does it! But this tastes much better than corporate crappy coffee. I find this shop much better than Coffee Cup down the street. You can actually work here!

So cute and quaint, and located right in the heart of BC. Staff was very nice and quick. Decor was light and clean; lots of area to sit and chat. Loved the book areas, and the children's area was such a bonus. They offer small business sales as well blind date books! The menu is a good size but they have a small "secret" menu which was a fun addition! Ordered the spumoni latte, half sweet, and it was the perfect sweetness. I think they use monin syrups, (I'll have to double check) which isn't a deal breaker, just not my favorite. Got a chocolate and orange/cran muffin, amazing!! Great flavor, so light and fluffy, perfect little size to snack on. I can't wait to go back and actually spend some time in there.

I have to say "Dam" good coffee and vibes. This coffee shop/book store is cozy. Coffee is locally roasted, our group of 4 all enjoyed our drinks. I had the cafe au lait. The book section of the cafe surprisingly has great books available. I'd recommend if looking for a pick-me-up in the area.

The ambiance here was inviting and conveniently located in Boulder. The coffee was delicious and service was quick and friendly. If you're in town definitely drop by and take a look. They have a little Library and ample space and seating to do some studying or reading while enjoying your coffee.

Is a nice and cozy small town feel with a library and sitting area. The coffee was good, they had a nice food and drink menu with explanations which is easy to understand. They also had pastries made from Fleming bakery. It's in a nice quaint part of town in Boulder City.

Pretty extensive menu. I got the latte with almond milk which was good. The food looked good too but I didn't try any. Service was good. Location is nice.

Down on Main Street you'll find this Dam roast house and bookstore. It's bigger inside then I expected. I stopped by to grab a drink on my way out of town. They have a variety of iced and cold drinks, I grabbed a hot chai with almond milk. They also had pastries with three different gf items to chose from, I wasn't hungry but I did like that they had more then one gf item. There was two people in front of me and a few other people already waiting for their drinks so it did take a bit longer then expected to get my drink out. Once I did have it in hand, it was hot so needed it to cool down a bit. It was a bit overly spiced for my taste but it was still good, I'll prolly get it iced next time or I'll try the matcha.

Nice array of food and drink options. The latte I ordered was made to perfection. The establishment is clean and spacious. Friendly staff. Attached to a cool little bookstore. Good space for doing work or for chilling.

I love this place. They have a great variety of baked goods and prepared foods too. Excellent place to come curl up with a book over a latte

Needed some coffee on the way to Hoover Dam. People always talk about the other coffee shop in town but I saw the crowd and how noisy it was I decided to look elsewhere. I stumbled on to this place called Dam Roast which I thought was a quiet and cozy. The girls up front were as friendly as can be and they serve up a decent variety of brews and desserts. I wound up getting this fruit tea which I thought was delicious and this waffle dessert that was also very delicious. Place was quiet enough to enjoy reading some of my social feeds while getting ready to drive to the Dam.

Absolute homerun! Avocado Toast, açaí bowl, and mint iced coffee were all some of the best I've ever had ! Very fresh ingredients, especially the fruit. Service was exceptional as well.

I am glad to see a coffee shop in downtown Boulder City. We actually talked to a nice local couple whilst having our coffee.

The coffee here was good, and the decor is super cute! I was so excited when I saw this place also had a bookstore. I think the term bookstore is a little bit of an oversell though. They have a few shelves, but I truly would have thought they were closer to part of the decor than a bookstore had I not seen the sign. It would be a four star, but the vibes were bad. Everyone there definitely gives off "locals only" vibes. I live in Vegas and visit Boulder City because I have friends there, so I'm aware that some people are more okay with out-of-towners than others, but I didn't get one smile from anyone. No greetings, no helpful coffee suggestions when I had a hard time deciding, no "thank you!" or "enjoy your coffee!" I haven't caught bad vibes that palpable in a while. I couldn't wait to leave, but I did enjoy my coffee.

Love this place! It's aesthetic and cute, has plenty of seating, and a great coffee menu. I just wish they had more regular pastry options instead of so many vegan ones lol

Great cup of coffee. Friendly staff. Great building and decor. When I need a good cup of coffee I grab a drip Brazilian coffee from Adam Roast House.

Cute little coffee shop great vibe! Coffee selection is very good service friendly. Love the addition of the books for sale.

Friendly staff Delicious coffee Fair prices AND a bookstore too! I loved that they had a used book section.‍ I tried the Cinnamon Toast latte and enjoyed every last drop. We just passed through this time. If we ever come back, I'd definitely pop in again. The pin that I purchased was the perfect token to symbolize my little camp getaway.

Lovely little spot. Nicely decorated, great service and a wonderful selection. They have vegan options and gluten free options. I had the cinnamon crunch latte and vegan coffee cake. It was delicious

This little coffee shop was surprisingly good for being in a small, touristy area. It is bright and open with plenty of seating. They have food options and they even sell some books in the back. I ordered my usual latte and it did take a longer than usual amount of time but it is a small shop. The drink was good. The milk was at a good temperature and the consistency was pretty good as well. The barista was not really able to draw any latte art but the flavor and feel of the drink was good. They do have both paper cups and ceramic so ask for the ceramic if you are staying to drink. Overall, a nice little shop for a coffee break.

This is a great spot to grab a latte and work for a few hours if you need to study or what not. The girls at the counter were sweet and the latte was pretty good! I stopped in today for the first time and I was very impressed with the space inside. It's very roomy and welcoming and, honestly, I would come here often if I lived in the area! The latte was decent, I ordered a S'MORES LATTE and it had a cute little presentation, just wasn't my favorite for the price. I've had lattes and milk teas from all over and this place is a little pricey, but the hospitality is WORTH IT and I would come back just to support this wonderful business. Boulder City has needed a spot like this for many years and I'm so glad this one has popped up!! With the quality they provide, I am sure they are here to stay.

Love their coffee and their lattes but the lids come off too easy.the lids tear. Not sure why?

We've come here several times when we are in town to visit my folks who have recently re- located here. It's a very nice coffee shop with a little bookstore in the back. We've never tried there pastries but their French press coffee are very nice and plenty for the two of us. They have clean restrooms and the staff is friendly. It's a great little place to hang out and have a cuppa coffee! We've purchased a couple of books here as well.

What an adorable coffee shop/bookstore in the heart of downtown Boulder City! My parents and I stopped by Dam Roast House after my grandpa's memorial service at a nearby church. Despite coming out to Boulder City a hundred times, I've never been here before, but my parents have. It was a busy Saturday afternoon so it was a little difficult to find nearby parking, eventually we did find a parking spot a few blocks away. This little coffee shop can be found across the street from Beer Zombies. Their coffee did not disappoint at all! I tried the blended s'mores latte and my parents both got an iced latte. The s'mores latte came with a marshmallow on top and it was the bomb! My parents said that their lattes were very good too. They also have many vegan food and drink options for the vegan lover in anyone. We live in Henderson but I got myself a punch card, where I get a free drink on my 11th visit. Service was excellent and prompt and I'm looking forward to returning next time I come back to Boulder City.

Dam Roast House is an adorable spot to grab coffee, tea, smoothies, or a light bite in Boulder City. This cute coffee shop is located on the main drive of the historical area of Boulder City. It's an older building with charm. The inside looks like they pieced together two shops. There is plenty of seating and lounge areas to stay and enjoy your coffee or food. They even have a small bookstore in the shop. The employees have always been friendly and acknowledged me right away. It was quick to place my orders. When I was down here for the 4th of July Damboree I stopped in for an Iced Berry Hibiscus Tea. They actually brewed the tea fresh so allow a few minutes for the steeping process. This was overly strong on the berry flavor. I didn't care for this. Yesterday I stopped in specifically for a Spumoni Latte. Yes, a Spumoni Latte! If you aren't familiar, this is chocolate, cherry, and pistachio. It was SO good! I really enjoyed sipping this on the drive home. My husband enjoyed his Pumpkin Pie Latte. How fun that they are still offering pumpkin as an option. I'll look forward to trying more of their delicious coffee next time I'm in Boulder City.

Stopped in for a cup of black coffee and a chocolate croissant on our way to do the Historical Railroad Trail to the Hoover Dam. Both were delicious! Street parking was easy. They also have some books available for purchase and seating areas. Would highly recommend!

Such a gem! We stumbled upon this place looking for a coffee. I had no idea they served food until we arrived. I was happy to see they had a vegan food item, "the vegan" toast. It was really good! If I ordered it again I'd order extra tomatoes. For coffee, I ordered the mocha monster with soy milk. It was bomb! Inside was clean with a variety of seating options. I'd recommend for groups of no more than 4, as they didn't have larger tables available. Street parking is available. I had to park a few streets over, but it wasn't a bad walk.

Way better than Starbucks. Better service and nice atmosphere . The barista was nice to talk to plenty of good conversation.

This is a great place to go to if you're looking to be productive while drinking some great quality coffee! I went here with some friends to get some work done and found this to be a super comfortable environment for both working and chatting. There's many different seating options, along with a good variety of reasonably priced drinks!

Super cute coffee shop! Probably the best cinnamon roll I've ever had. Excellent vanilla lattes. Baristas are friendly and efficient. Cafe is light and airy with room to sit and stand. Water is easy to get yourself! Nice to sit outside on the sidewalk bench to enjoy treats.

This coffee shop has a 5 star rating for a reason! Super relaxing tranquil spot even though it was pretty busy! There's no music in here which would make it good for studying but isn't awkwardly quiet or anything. The spillway slush and Pineapple Express were exactly what we needed on a super hot summer afternoon! The baristas were all super nice as well. The book selection is tiny but fun to look at anyway. Give me a hammock and I could have slept like a baby in this coffee shop lol!

Such a cute spot that now has become a must stop every time we are in the area! The s'mores latte is delicious (pro-tip: add some vanilla syrup to it for a yummy boost of flavor!) I love the cute bookstore they have within the coffee shop and each time we have been the service has always been so welcoming and friendly!

If you're feeling the need for a bite and/or caffeine, this is a great stop. The shop is filled with cute locally made items. Don't miss the books next door! There's a nice selection of healthy and not so healthy food items. A lot of great coffee and tea options are on the menu as well. I really love the little tables outside. I sat in the sun as my order was being prepared. If you're planning to stick around, they do have a coffee punch card. My almond milk chai latte was so good. I am a little confused why it's listed as chai tea on the menu...chai = tea. The Hulk Smash Smoothie Bowl had avocado, spinach, banana, pineapple, local honey, almond milk, topped with chia seeds, hemp seeds, blueberries, and honey. So delish and perfect if you want something light and refreshing. Staff are pleasant and patient as I take forever to order because everything on the menu looks delightful. The s'mores latte had rave reviews from by friend.

Was in Las Vegas near Hoover dam! Went to Dam roast house and it was really cute and a book store as well! Got two Irish cream cold brew and man it was strong! Then my mom got the cinnamon roll hot latte!

I'd give this place 100/100 stars if I could. I've gone to this coffee shop & book store since it's opening & the baristas are so kind and loving. I was even gifted flowers and a get well card when I broke my knee this year and was unable to keep going into the shop to get coffee. The owners Amber & Misty are awesome and so are the baristas. I wish some of the older Baristas didn't have to pursue their careers because I miss them so much! The coffee shop & book store is impeccably clean, with not a decoration amiss. (Unless visiting children/kids mess up the decorations, which the shop quickly fixes.) Ashley does a great job teaching new Baristas how to make proper coffee. She teaches them how not to waste or burn shots. Grace always has a gigantic smile on her face and has the bubbliest, kindest personality! Kaiya makes the best coffee and is just a doll! I've not been in enough since I broke my knee to learn all of the new barista's names, but you're sure to make friends at this coffee shop when you visit. Fast WiFi to work remotely while enjoying your coffee, food and sitting in a comfortable chair or desk. Cute & creative signs are always hanging out front which I always get a kick out of. Hands down, no other coffee shop comes even remotely close to the quality of Dam Roast House in Boulder City.

Very nice coffee shop and book store. Friendly staff. Nice atmosphere. Had egg bites and a s'more latte. Both tasted great.

When I heard about this coffeeshop opening in BC, I planned out a Saturday to drive down and check it out - love the vibe here, from the patio and clean white entrance to the cat decor, book selection, and plants in the space. Definitely an inviting, cozy shop. Staff were friendly and I love the menu - extensive drinks along with toasts and open-faced sandwiches, and an appealing pastry case. I had the mint latte and the Mediterranean toast, both of which were great. Didn't explore the bookstore area too much but feels like a great business to partner with - and I like that they have a YA Lit section. Looking forward to coming back!

Good coffee, nice cozy spot, however if you order a drip coffee the cashier won't pour it and just queue it up behind the rest of the more time consuming orders. Had to wait 14 minutes for a drip coffee although it was busy... Other cafes pour drips right away.

I give them 2 1/2 stars. People were nice. Little pricey compared to other coffee shops. Wasn't able to play my online game as their WiFi prevents game playing at their store. Am disappointed

Back in 1931, Ida Browder moved to Boulder City and set about founding the first commercial building in town and opening up Browder's Cafe. Its main customers were Hoover Dam workers. Today, that same building is on the National Register of Historic Places and is home to Dam Roast House & Browder Bookstore, the spot to get your coffee or tea fix and more. I stopped by yesterday after an early morning workout at the lake and had the Maker's Mint, a refreshing iced drink with espresso, turbinado sugar, muddled mint & milk (oat for me). In addition to coffees and teas, DMR also offers up açaí bowls, smoothies, various toasts, vegan pastries, non-vegan pastries, and Smorgas (Scandinavian open-faced sandwiches). The bookstore section is small, but has variety, including a kids' reading section. The combination of history, coffee, and books in one spot is a winner and makes this coffee shop a unique gem.

The boho mid century modern aesthetic of this locally owned small business isn't the only thing you'll love about it. Comfortable seating, xo working spaces, and of course, coffee! My personal favorite is the Day Dreamer. However, as it's fall, the Dracula is a tasty burst of raspberry. They have muffins and cookies and a few other tasty treats. Many of which are vegan or gluten free. Come and say hi to the staff, they're all very kind as well. There's even a small bookshop in the back where you can "have a blind date with a book." I come every week. That in itself says it's good. :)

Best latte around! Wonderful service, great menu! They have many vegan choices. Get an avocado toast, egg bites, waffles, fresh fruit, smoothie, lots to choose from. Plus peruse the bookstore while you are here. Local authors are featured. Nice quiet place to buy a book, get a coffee or snack and just hang out. Historic building, one of the first in downtown.
