Calling all Henderson café lovers: Makers & Finders has finally arrived.
Owners Josh Molina and Valeria Varela have truly made their mark on the local coffee community and their latest store does not disappoint. The Instagram-friendly decor serves as a colorful complement to the Latin cuisine and creative beverage offerings that M&F is known for all across the Valley, and this spot is just as charming, in its own way, as the Arts District and Downtown Summerlin locations.
It would be foolish to skip the empanadas, where fillings are tucked and fried into a signature crescent shape and served alongside different dipping sauces. Luckily, the menu offers a flight ($22), making it easy for you to find your favorites. Golden and crispy yuca frites ($7) are made fresh-to-order and served with roasted garlic aioli, and these cooks don’t play when whipping up an order of salsa verde chilaquiles ($14).
But let’s talk coffee. The espresso bar menu is enough to make you reconsider your drink of choice. The lavender-infused latte ($5.50) is served in a cup large enough to require both hands and garnished with dried aromatics, and the café con leche could make any abuela smile.
Large windows brighten the dining area and the upbeat vibe from both the music and staff will have this spot in your rotation of places to bring friends. But if there’s not time to sit and chat, the walk up to-go area is an equally satisfying option.
MAKERS & FINDERS 75 S. Valle Verde Dr. #260, 702-586-8255, makerslv.com. Monday-Saturday, 8 a.m.-5 p.m.; Sunday 9 a.m.-5 p.m.
