Reserva Coffee Roasters Information

Reserva Coffee Roasters at 4217 N McColl Rd #1200 is the Crosspointe Plaza branch, the McAllen location Reserva identifies as its first café with a drive-thru. The company began roasting coffee in 2016 and opened its first café in 2017; McColl later became its fourth location. This branch supports pickup and delivery. For a first stop, start with the Wildflower Honey Latte, then add the Lox Bagel if you want something substantial.

What Is Reserva Coffee Roasters Known For?

Reserva Coffee Roasters centers on artisan roasting rather than a generic café menu. The McColl shop pairs espresso drinks, pour-over coffee, matcha and cold brew with breakfast, brunch and pastries. Its official location page describes the Crosspointe café as urban and energetic, with seating designed for longer conversations. Compared with Reserva’s other McAllen cafés, the practical difference here is the drive-thru.

What to Order at Reserva Coffee Roasters

Wildflower Honey Latte - from $5.27 hot. Espresso and steamed milk get honey sweetness and a touch of lemon. Order it if you like flavored lattes but want something brighter than caramel.

Espresso Tonic - from $5.27 iced. Double espresso meets tangy tonic water and ice for a crisp, bitter-sweet, sparkling drink. Pick this when a milk-heavy coffee sounds too rich.

Pour Over V60 - $5.50. A V60 is a cone-shaped manual brewer that highlights a seasonal coffee. Reserva prepares this as a 12-ounce cup. Choose it when you want the beans, not syrup, to lead.

Lox Bagel - $13.99. An everything bagel comes with house-made schmear, hot-smoked salmon, crispy onions and chives. It is the strongest seafood choice for a filling brunch.

Smoked Salmon Avocado Toast - $10.99. Hot-smoked salmon and seasoned avocado sit on toasted multigrain bread. Choose this over the bagel when you want salmon with less dairy and a crisp toast base.

Coffee, Service & Atmosphere Review

Customer feedback tied to the McColl branch praises the coffee, kind staff, low lighting and a comfortable setup for working or lingering. Some comments are less positive about drink consistency and food value, including a specialty latte described as watered down. For a first visit, keep the order coffee-led: choose the V60 or Espresso Tonic if you want the coffee profile to stay prominent.

Is Reserva Coffee Roasters Worth Visiting?

Yes, especially if you want locally roasted coffee, manual brewing options and drive-thru convenience in east McAllen. Come for coffee first; brunch makes it easier to stay, but this is not a seafood restaurant despite its two smoked-salmon dishes.

What People's Say About Place

First of all, the staff here is genuinely kind—you can feel it even through curbside pickup. After working in customer service, I’ve learned to recognize when people truly care, and here, they do. No one is obligated to be friendly, but they consistently go the extra mile. Even on days when I feel mentally drained, their attitude alone makes a difference. I usually order the same drink—the Wildflower Latte—not because I lack preferences, but because it’s perfect for me. This time, however, I tried the espresso tonic for the first time, and I was honestly impressed. Bright, refreshing, and perfectly balanced. Ordering is simple and clear, never overloaded with unnecessary terminology—everything just flows. Even with curbside pickup, the quality and consistency always come through. Whoever the barista is and whoever is working behind the scenes, you’re all doing an incredible job. And honestly… that espresso tonic was fantastic. It woke me up in the best way possible. Now I can finally finish my projects—awake, focused, and ready to go. 10/10 experience. Highly recommended.

The avocado toast with poached eggs is amazing. Their coffee is okay i got the pumpkin spice latte. I felt it was too watered down. Minus one star because they should be on DoorDash. $8 delivery fee is crazy.

Always amazing but finally posting a review. The vibe is forever it at this location and I appreciate the low lights immensely. Ordered: 1. Avocado toast with poached egg 2. Fruit bowl (off-menu) 3. Wildflower honey latte Delicious as always!

I accidentally found this cozy super charming coffee spot. I ordered my favorite vanilla latte and it was perfect. I ventured with the Lox bagel and it was also on point. A must try!

Whenever I'm in the RGV for work I make it a point to frequent Reserva. It fills a very big gap in the area in a place where great coffee and great food meet. The staff is always super sweet and accommodating and the vibe is super top notch. If you're thinking about going to Starbucks, head here instead

Visited for the first time today after driving by and noticing it! Very very nice atmosphere and large space to be able to work. Excited to bring my work one day soon for a change of scenery. One downside is the food looked a little lack luster/not many healthy options. But my coffee was delicious!

Visiting family in town and was looking for a nice coffee house to sit and catch up with a friend. Was pleasantly surprised it wasn’t busy, the customer service was on point and the drinks were delicious. Almost wished I brought my laptop and joined the others getting some work done here. Would definitely recommend and visit again. Thank you!

First time here and OMG, everything we ordered was amazing! So far so good. Definitely going again!
