Yelp Review 2024 #57:
We drove by this building and noticed one of my favorite coffee shops (Golden Fog) was no longer there and is now called Dig It! And I wasn't sure what kind of establishment Dig It was - is it a vintage clothing store? The next time I was having brunch in Downtown Las Vegas, I searched for coffee shops nearby and Dig It popped up and bookmarked them.
I finally had the opportunity to stop by today and I'm glad I did. Their drinks are delicious and the service was wonderful. They stand behind three things: "kindness, coffee, and inclusion" and they truly do live by that. They employ people who are differently-abled and keep a safe and non-toxic work environment for them. And honestly, we need more places like this. The owner, Taylor Gardner Chaney was there helping serve drinks and clearing tables. And Taylor's sister, Lindsay (that inspired Taylor to open a coffee shop focused on inclusion) was enjoying her breakfast at the coffee shop.
They were busy this morning and we were lucky to get one of the last 3 tables. There was a bit of a wait which was completely fine - it's a Sunday morning and we had no other plans aside from having coffee before going to lunch nearby. Our drinks arrived and they handed us a free drink coupon for our next visit for having to wait - I don't think we waited that long. I've been to other establishments where I waited over 30 minutes and somehow they made me feel like it was my fault I had to wait that long. I believe in karma (good and bad) - Taylor and everyone at Dig It definitely deserve all the good karma because they're all wonderful humans which we need more of.
Their drinks are priced anywhere from $3 to $6.50 which is very reasonable considering how expensive it is to lease a space in DTLV nowadays. You can have coffee, latte, tea - hot or iced with dairy and non-dairy options (almond or oat). You can add different flavored syrups: vanilla, caramel, mocha, hazelnut, peppermint, mocha, white mocha, strawberry, and lavender. You can get a stamp card called Kindness Club (which comes in 2 designs: flowers or disco ball) so you can get a free drink after your 10th beverage. They have pastries, cookies, cream pie, bagel, muffin, cake pops, brownie, burritos, avocado toast, açaí bowls, etc.
Matcha Strawberry Latte:
I will always choose matcha over any type of beverage if it's available. A pronounced matcha flavor and color with a nice hint of strawberry. I like this better than Starbucks' watered down matcha latte. Other matcha drinks on their menu are: Peanut Butter Matcha, and Matcha Lemonade which I will try on my next visits. 5/5
Mocha Latte:
A good balance of coffee and chocolate. We got the hot version and the iced version. 4/5
The interior has remnants of Golden Fog but with disco balls and new wall art with 2 Chainz. They have more seating but they're busier.
You can get cool Dig It merchandise such as keychains, shirts, tumblers, coffee mugs, drinkware, caps, and coffee in a bag. I wish they had tank tops since it's getting hot outside.
The concept, and mission and values of this fun coffee spot is admirable, commendable, and genuine - I DIG IT! And if there's only one local business I can support for the rest of my life, it would be this.
