Spirituality in Every Sip

The thing I love the most about Vegas is that even though it is easy to get lost in all the amazing corporate food chains, there are still little hidden gems of privately owned food places that provide some of the best food and drinks out there.

One of the hidden gems that I recently discovered is “Coffee Religion”, a coffee shop located on the corner of Charleston and Brush St. The shop opened in 2019 and they believe that “what you drink is equally important as where you drink it.” With this motto in mind, they not only strive to make the delicious drinks but also create an ambiance that allows you to feel relaxed and at home in their space.

The owner of the store, Lotus, even took the time to transport an eleven-foot sculpture of the second buddha, the figure that brought Buddhism to Tibet. The transport took two months and allows all the guests the opportunity to mediate and find inner peace while they enjoy a delicious brew. The thing that really drew me into Coffee Religion was their Afternoon High Tea. They provide ‘reservation only’ high tea that is $35 per person and includes tea, finger sandwiches, and dessert. Coffee Religion also, of course, acknowledges COVID and offers a super cute packed to-go versions of high tea that you can take to the mountains or a park to enjoy in the outdoors. A perfect idea for a light-hearted date, just know their hours are 9am-3pm and they are closed on Sundays.

I know we all love a good Starbucks, but if you are feeling adventurous and want to take some time to center yourself over a good cup of Joe, this is the place for you. You can visit their website here: https://coffeereligionlv.com/
