Almond & Oat, the dairy-free coffee bar from the team behind The Coffee Class, is now pouring at its third shop, inside shareDOWNTOWN at 1300 S. Casino Center Blvd., Suite 110 near Colorado Avenue. Every drink is built on Oatly oat milk and Onyx Coffee Lab espresso with housemade syrups, and the case carries pastries and savory bites alongside matcha and the shop’s Elixir drinks. The room is about 1,400 square feet with roughly 30 seats, including custom banquettes and a bar along the front windows, so it works for a laptop morning as well as a quick pickup. The brand started on St. Rose Parkway in Henderson in 2023 and added South Jones in December 2025, and the shop’s website lists Arts District hours as 7 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Sushi Roku at The Forum Shops at Caesars Palace now opens at noon every day and serves its full menu straight through, so the Hanabi crispy rice, White Lotus roll, sashimi and robata are fair game for a midday meal. Hours run noon to 9 p.m. Sunday through Thursday and noon to 10 p.m. Friday and Saturday, with happy hour daily from 4 to 6 p.m., and Nevada residents get the first three hours of Caesars parking free with ID.
Carson Kitchen in the old John E. Carson Hotel downtown has added more than a dozen new dishes and cocktails for fall and winter, including Fettuccine Foiefredo with duck confit, a Ginger Pear plate with brie and pecans, Neeps & Tatties made with sweet potato and rutabaga, and grilled oysters done Rockefeller-style with Swiss chard. If you want a cheaper way in, the bar-only happy hour runs Monday through Friday, 3 to 5 p.m., with grilled oysters and “Devil’s” eggs at $3 each and gyro tacos at $5 each.
Toca Madera at The Shops at Crystals is pouring three seasonal cocktails nightly through Nov 2: Howl at the Moon (a mezcal margarita), Blood Orange Eclipse (a spiced paloma served with the house flame) and Black Night (a coffee old fashioned). There’s also a dark raspberry dessert called the Poisoned Rose, plated with edible “soil” and creepy-crawly decorations, and dinner starts at 4 p.m. on weekdays.
