TRES GATOS COFFEE

I’ve seen a lot of reviews of the chai at Tres Gatos so I finally had to try it for myself. I was a little nervous it would be a spicier chai because it was homemade but it was perfect! Still sweet but it tasted like a real tea. I got the iced chai with lavender cold foam which I’d recommend. Excited to come back and try their other cold foam flavors. The hot oatmeal cookie coffee was also good! Staff was friendly and helpful!

On my way to work, my GPS decided to spice up my morning and rerouted me past Tres Gatos. From the outside, the coffee shop looked adorable, so naturally I did some online “research” to prepare myself. Pro tip: their specialty drinks aren’t on the drive-thru menu, so Google menu photos came in clutch. I ordered a medium iced John Wayne. I originally asked for a large, but the barista kindly warned me that a large iced is 32 ounces—aka a commitment—so I scaled back. The drink was good, though a little lighter on flavor than I prefer (totally a me thing). The cold foam was impressively airy… maybe too airy, as it disappeared within minutes like it had places to be. Overall, the drink was solid and the barista was super friendly and helpful. I’d definitely go back—just with a different order and maybe a stronger flavor next time.

My mom told me and my sister about this place and she did not let us down!! I got the banana bread chai hot with oat milk…. PHENOMENALL!! Takes the spot as my favorite chai by far!! It had the perfect amount of creaminess and a wonderful banana bread taste. It’s so cute in there and the employees were all so nice! Will definitely be returning soon!

I have been coming here for a few years now to get a chai about 1-2x a week, and have recommended this place to almost anyone that mentions they want to try a coffee shop. This week will be my last week. I ordered a small chai (no alternative milks), and a muffin. The total was $14.50. For $14.50 I could have gotten a whole meal from most restaurants around here. On top of that, the muffin was “warmed,” but it was cold inside and dry, with a burnt taste (which you can kind of see in the picture). If I wanted to pay almost $15 for an overpriced chai and a dry muffin I would have went to Starbucks, but it probably would have been cheaper there! Don’t think I’ll be coming back.

A warm cozy atmosphere with friendly attentive staff that accommodate special requests. The food is great for a coffee shop experience and the coffee is excellent. Recommend asking for double flavor as flavors are generally not intense. ADA accessible restroom is available, dip down close by outdoors, but sitting areas and pathway to restroom would be difficult for someone navigating a wheelchair or other accessibility tools.

The community coffee shop you've been looking for has been in Midvale for a long time. Women owned. All staff is trained in understanding of the rich tradition of coffee and staff always have new flavors of classics you love. Chai latte Mexican Mocha Matcha Latte Splurge sometime and enjoy all three during a work afternoon you want to be out of your house or office and want to have that hometown American community coffee shop experience!

Was wanting to make this place my new coffee spot in efforts to support small local business in my neighborhood. Unfortunately after my 2nd visit, I won't be returning due to the fact my dog was not welcomed when we stopped in for a drink & a pastry. The cashier was super friendly & lovely during ourSunday stroll. The girl who informed me my senior dog was not allowed in there was doing her job, I get it, but you interrupted my ordering then proceeded to monitor the transaction between the cashier & I as if you were trying to make a statement. I told her we will wait outside, which is actually humiliating. I considered just not ordering, then canceling my order for a refund but I just took my drink then went back to my stroll w my dog. If that's the case, open a order window instead of telling locals their pets aren't allowed then make them go outside. A small business should be setting themselves a part from big franchises. I did not tip bc why were you trying to intimidate me when paying for my order? Was it because I'm a brown skinned Native American w a white & brown pit mix? Do better. That whole experience was uncomfortable being monitored like I'm some type of threat w my 12 year-old dog then waiting outside like an outcast. Treat your locals better! Response to owner: Your customer service is actually horrendous & I expected a backhanded reply from you based on the other replies you gave to other past negative experience reviews. Stating your native too is not helping your case in defending the watchful eye of my every move after I was compliant in what I was told and very dismissive in how this manner is being handled. I can understand your use of excuses and victimization, but the lack of appropriate conduct to neighboring locals says a lot.

Stopped in for a coffee today, and Brooklyn and Delaney helped me, and they did an amazing job because oh my God it was AMAZING! I got the almond joy mocha, and it was one of the best coffees I've ever had! Such a cute place, with fun baristas, and great vibes!

I love this place. It's cute and vibey and the coffee is good. I've yet to go inside cause I love a drive thru but it looks cute from the outside. Service is super nice and they always give good recs.

This spot is in a cute little area tucked away. The street it's on is super cute with all these cool murals. There's outdoor seating which is nice with summer coming up! Food wise everything I got was delicious. I got a chocolate chip cookie and it was massive! It as soft and just the right amount of sweetness! My favorite thing I got was the Jalapeño cranberry scone. Omg when it was warmed up with was good. Food wise everything for me was 5/5. Drink wise it was like a 2/5. I got the passionfruit mojito drink. It did not taste like passionfruit was more like mojito. But it just tasted very syrupy to me. I think I just got the wrong thing here. Next time I'll stick to coffee! Overall cute spot, wasn't overly crowded and their pastries were good!

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.

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!!!

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.

Wonderful variety of flavors, knowledgeable and adventurous baristas, and a quality product that is as tasty as advertised. What else could you want? Shout out to the raspberry hibiscus iced tea with peach. Refreshing as hell and taaaaasty! They're amenable to mixing and matching flavors to whatever you want -- the jalapeño cranberry scone is proof. Go here. Enjoy the natural light, pillows, and buzz of a locally-owned neighborhood coffee shop without the sugar, cost, and headaches of the big chains.

Tres Gatos really never disappoints. Baristas are top notch and management has got that joint locked down. Still the creamiest, spiciest, most delicious chai in the whole state.

I've seen a lot of reviews of the chai at Tres Gatos so I finally had to try it for myself. I was a little nervous it would be a spicier chai because it was homemade but it was perfect! Still sweet but it tasted like a real tea. I got the iced chai with lavender cold foam which I'd recommend. Excited to come back and try their other cold foam flavors. The hot oatmeal cookie coffee was also good! Staff was friendly and helpful!

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.

I love discovering new pockets and neighborhoods in Salt Lake City! This has been on my list forever and I was excited to finally check it out. Tres Gatos has truly the friendliest staff ever! I was greeted by the sweetest people when I walked in. I ordered my classic iced chai order and it was AMAZING. One of the best chai's I've found here in SLC. They have some pastries here - both sweet and savory options, but that's the extent of the food they offer. They have both indoor and outdoor seating. The indoor seating is limited, and we were lucky to have some sunshine on the patio when we visited so we sat outside. They also have a drive thru! There's a small parking lot behind the building, but there was plenty of parking on the street. Excited that I finally got to check this place out and can't wait to come back!

A lovely shop with plenty of outdoor seating and a good supply of indoor seating. We had decaf Rocky Road mocha and decaf latte, both of which were very tasty. They have a selection of vegan and gluten-free food items. Adorable stickers, both as decoration and for sale. Staff was very helpful, friendly, and welcoming.

Easily found parking on the street. I was drawn by their Instagram where they make it clear they're empathetic and they'll help you figure out what you want. And it's true! I had no idea what to get. I told them I have the palate of a child- I don't do coffee or tea or carbonation or caffeine . So they custom-made me a Berry'd Alive with no lotus and no soda and real sugar in the flavor syrup. It's wonderful and exactly what I needed. AND I got the last gluten free muffin! Maple and brown sugar warmed in the oven. Yum!

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.

The menu here is seriously elite, I'm pretty sure they can make a cold foam out of any flavor but chai is by far my favorite. Everytime I've come here the person taking orders has been super sweet and patient. The cost is fairly standard, $5ish for 16oz of drink. The scone was good, I wish I had tried it warmed; it had cheese, bacon, and sausage I think (they never specified what's in it).

$8.66 for a 16 oz hot Mexican Coffee with an extra shot of espresso. All I could taste was milk, cinnamon and sweetener. Way too sweet, and I really couldn't taste any coffee. There was a ton of chocolate syrup on the bottom of my cup when I went to throw my cup away... When I walked in I just wanted a nice fresh cup of house (drip) coffee. They didn't have any made, and they didn't offer to make any. They suggested the Mexican coffee. I guess most people are opting for frozen drinks in this 90 degree weather except for us die-hards. Parking is still hard to find a spot on main street, but they do have a drive thru if you just want to grab and go

Probably my favorite coffee shop by far! I love that it has a unique menu and everything is pretty great! I got the chai tea latte and it was so good. I will be coming back for that. I also got the lemon blueberry scone. It was super good and they warm it up. The barista who helped me was so sweet and super knowledgeable. I will be coming back soon.

The scones were fresh and tasted great! The staff were so nice and the atmosphere was pleasant. Next time I'll sit outside to enjoy the artwork

Drive through option! Super friendly and speedy service. I got the house chai latte iced and it's probably one of the best latte I've ever ever had. They have larger drink options, which I really like also so if you want it to last a little longer I got 32 ounce and they use pebble ice, which is always plus, we came through the drive-through with our little dog and they even offered him a treat. We will be back.

Pro tip! Follow them on Instagram to keep up with what's new as well as the tried and true favorites! It's also where they post their new product and the few times a year you can buy chai by the bag! We love everyone and everything about this local gem!

Very unique drinks that taste like the name / what they're supposed to be!!! Expresso brownie is super crumble y and a little dry so I wouldn't get the food again but drinks are 10/10!!

Tres Gatos is located in a vibrant neighbourhood which has many murals. It gives a very artistic vibe. Tres Gatos is a cute little place which offers varied beverages and food. It has a limited seating with lots of games. We had tiramisu mocha and it was amazing. If you are looking for a sugar rush, this should be the perfect drink but if you looking for a caffeine rush, then order something else. The service is really friendly and nice.

I adore Tres Gatos Coffee. They have the best drinks as well as amazing gluten free and vegan type desserts and muffins, cookies, treats, and some yummy lunch type of items as well. I mostly love the name and the drive through is just fantastic. It is located in old town Midvale and they don't usually stay open past 3pm unless there is a mural fest or something going on in the streets or neighboring businesses. Don't miss out on this place and their amazing non dairy options for lattes and delicious goodness whether coffee or not coffee.

This place is pretty good, considering this is Utah. The area it is in has a lot of construction going on, so I feel bad that no one really knows it's here. The place is so cute tho. On the inside and outside. Surrounded by beautiful murals. The service is great! And the coffee was good. I got a Mexican mocha iced with oat milk and I enjoyed it. They also have really cool stickers!

Great strong coffee. While traveling shamefully just go to chain coffee. Because of good reviews thought we would give this place a try. So glad we did!

If you're into great service, and strong, flavorful coffee, Tres Gatos won't let you down. I've been through the drive thru several times now, but as a mom whose husband is not a morning person, I haven't yet had the pleasure of sitting down inside. Service in the drive thru has always been very friendly, and genuinely so--surpassing Dutch Bros' friendliness, even. I'm a latte drinker. I take it plain when it's hot, but at Tres Gatos I need sweetener because their coffee is strong. This is a good thing, obviously. Just making sure that if you're used to Starbs or Dutch, you know ahead of time that you may need some more sweetener at Tres Gatos. I know many people who are fans of their chai. I don't generally love Chai, so I cannot attest. But I really just don't think you can go wrong at Tres Gatos.

Delaney is an awesome barista. Her recommendations are on point. Super nice location too.

Really good coffee! Driving by, I saw they had a drive thru and immediately decided to make a detour for a bit of caffeine. You order at the window and the baristas are friendly and efficient. Their menu covers decent ground too. Stop by when you need a boost!

This place has the best chai in Utah, hands down. Their lattes are also always delicious, and I look forward to their seasonal menus and specials. The baristas are super nice and friendly, and the service is fast! I usually use the drive through, but the inside of the shop is cute and comfortable, and they play good music.

I'm just going to update my review because this place keeps getting better! Today is cinco de mayo and I ordered one of the special drinks from Tres gatos and let me say I'm still drooling thinking about this drink! It was a blended mango drink and I'm so deeply obsessed. Fun things: STICKER WAL!! ADD YOUR BUSINESS OR YOUR FAV STICKER ON THEIR WALL! Also it's a drive through!

I fell hard for tres gatos. I usually need a couple times and I'm okay with a place and it closes. With tres gatos I love the style, mural(s), drive thru aspect of all of it. They made great drinks and since I saw they had a vegan gluten free coconut horchata muffin featured as the "muffin of the week" or "muffin of the day". Either way I'm eager to try more & more. The turkey bacon sandwich on ciabatta bread was offered to heat up kindly or wrap. Rating of the food was 10/10. No complains here!

This is by far the best tasting coffee in Utah and every time I go in the staff makes my day. They always remember my favorite drink, the Mexican mocha. It's more than a coffee shop it's your neighborhood feel good shop!

Open Sunday! Drive thru! Plenty of parking! What more could a girl want. Place is super cute. Staff, maybe owners?, were very friendly. Cold brew was way good as was the cereal bar. Can't wait to come back!

AMAZING! I was in town 3 days and went here 3 times. Loved their cold brew & cold foam! Each time service was so friendly and loved they had a drive thru when I was looking for a quick stop!

Second time visiting and as delightful as I remember. A hazelnut latte for my daughter was delicious and really good espresso. The blueberry scone was beautiful on the outside and in. It was served warm and we loved it. I got the Mexican mocha and it was really tasty. Just a truly lovely place to stop.

When I saw the name and logo of this place, I had to try it! The hours made it hard for me to make it in since I work in Lehi, but I left a bit early one morning and it was worth it! I like trying local coffee shops that have decaf espresso since I've limited my caffeine intake. They have a cute setup, a little small, but cozy. They also offer beans, bottled cold brew, and a variety of pastries and sandwiches, with even some GF options! I met the manager, Aubrey, and another crew member, Day, and they were super sweet and helpful. I even walked away with a cute Tres Gatos tumbler because this crazy cat mama must have one, in PINK no less! This place will be one of my regulars. They do get kinda busy sometimes, but worth the wait. And a drive through for convenience.

The dirty chai was very good and I understand why this place is well known for their chais. The place was not busy when I got in. All the tables were clean! They also have a drive through which is perfect if I'm ever in a rush. The berry scone I had was also really good.

This place is hidden in small streets in the city of Midvale. It's a cute coffee shop with a must have dirty chai tea. They have a drive-through location and the whole staff is nice and friendly. They have seating areas inside and parking in the back. They have homemade scones. I got two of them. I got the blueberry lemon school, and it was very delicious. It was nice and warm and soft inside with a little crunchy on the outside. I could taste of blueberries, with a small hint of lemon it was very flavorful. The breakfast scone had bacon and cheese reminded me of a homemade scone with a twist of adding breakfast meat so it's cute. I got the largest size for the dirty chai and it was the best dirty chai that I've tasted in a while from top to bottom. Usually by the time you get to the bottom of your cup your drink is a little water down and not so flavorful that wasn't the case with this drink. They pack a lot of flavor in their drinks and their food options. Love this place will go again .

I go out of my way to get my coffee from here. Excellent coffee. Excellent service. Definitely my favorite coffee shop!

I have been coming to this coffee shop for a little over a year now, and I don't want to go to any other place! The staff is always so friendly. They also do their best to remember faces, names, and even your drink! They'll make sure the espresso shots are pulled PERFECTLY. If it pulls bad they will remake it, making your drink taste wonderful! My favorite part about this place is they will have different gluten free VEGAN muffins!!! They are sooo delicious. Just like this one! Seriously. You neeeed to stop by. Also bring your pet, they love all the pets.

Came here on a coffee date with the work bestie. There is a parking lot behind the building, which I wish I would have noticed on incoming, but I didn't park too far. It is a bit of a drive for me, but it was a beautiful, sunny day and the patio here was perfect for a catch up. There also aren't many seats inside, so definitely take advantage of the outdoor seating in good weather. I ordered a signature - the Mexican mocha and she tried an iced lavender dirty chai. Both were made with love, you can tell. We also sat and watched while they were made lol Very welcoming vibes, good flavor variety, and although I didn't try any, they have a bit of a baked good selection too. I need to make a return soon to try something new. If it was closer to home for me I could see it being a favorite.

Wowe. Just WOWE. We absolutely have nothing else like this in SLC/UT. I've never had coffee/drinks this good until we ran into Tres Gatos. A secret little hidden gem on main street that's kinda tucked away but with the most beautiful hospitable energy when you walk in and house made everything, to the extent where you can really taste the difference. They have a house made Mexican coffee and Chai and both are the absolute best I've had anywhere in the country, very on par with many I've had in various metro cities. We are so incredibly lucky to have something this outstanding in Midvale, UT. Sitting in here for the first time just listening to everyone here talking about how they drove from Orem to come here, makes sense people travel far and wide to come to this place. Phenomenal at the least.

I was told by multiple people that I needed to come here and try the chai and it did not disappoint! It was very sweet and flavorful! But to be completely honest, my favorite thing that I had here was the gluten free muffin! Seriously that was one of the best muffins I've ever had and I'll definitely be back for one of those! Such a fun place!

Cinco estrellas for Tres Gatos! The coffee shop is beautiful, trendy, very clean, and has an open layout. Indoor seating is limited with a couple of tables, bar seating, and a couch. The barista that helped us, I think her name was Aubrey, was very friendly and helpful. She answered our questions about the menu and went above and beyond. There were several couples and families that came in at the same time, but she busted her butt and got everything out quickly and accurately. We ordered the breakfast sandwiches and mixed berry scone. The sandwiches were fresh that morning and very good. The scone has heavy on the lemon flavor, but I really enjoyed it. To drink, we ordered the Cinnamon Toast latte and Oatmeal Cookie latte. The Cinnamon Toast was very sweet, so we'd likely order half sweet next time, while the Oatmeal Cookie was subtle. We really enjoyed the food and lattes, and will definitely be back. The owner came in towards the end, and asked us how everything was. We loved that and could tell he prides himself on his local business. Thanks again for everything and see y'all again soon!

The ladies running the show yesterday (8/1) were super friendly and upbeat! I felt welcomed the second I stepped in! I got myself an iced tan mocha and it was the cat's meow! Only downside was no cats to play with while waiting for my drink! (Unless they were hiding, which cats do tend to do!) I'll be back! Still hoping for cats!

Super cute coffee shop and baristas were nice. Got a blended chai and it was way too sweet- couldn't finish it and I ordered the smallest size. Also, pricy. The reason I won't be back is they don't accept Amex, that's really inconvenient for me.

Best coffee, Mocha, and Chai in Midvale hands down. They make the Chai mix and the Mexican mocha from scratch in house btw...

Recommend the Mexican coffee. It is smooth, chocolaty, creamy, and delicious. You won't be sorry. Next time we are down here from Oregon, we will try the chai. Friendly service and very welcoming. Go here!

tried this cute local coffee place for the first time and i am super happy to have found it! it's a local coffee shop in my neighborhood in the historic midvale area surrounded by artsy murals and some latin american stores and markets so it's great to just drink your coffee and walk around and explore! i ordered the iced nutcase latte and believe you can choose your flavors! such a cute place.

Overall, great drinks, experience, and atmosphere. COVID - didn't seem to be any precautions in place at this time Drink- I got an iced dirty chai (pictured). This one was pretty good, you could taste the spices but it was still fairly sweet. A good balance. I also got the bottled cat nip to go. It isn't bad at all, though strong (as it's advertised lol). Food- I got the hot breakfast sandwich. It was egg and bacon on a ciabatta roll (might have had more in it). It was really good, but not super filling to me. Either way I was pleased Atmosphere- it's a small space indoors but they've got plenty of patio seating outside. Probably not a place to study for that fact, but if you get a spot to sit then you're fine, it wasn't busy when I went Service- I didn't catch his name but the guy who helped me was so nice and very helpful. Great customer service and the products came out pretty quick Other- they sell some coffee accessories and also have a drive thru
