Great coffee, but not impressed with the food or service. We sat down and ordered and had to ask for flatware. There were no refills on coffee, and the server forgot to place our to go order. I had the meatlovers skillet. It did not come with scrambled eggs, but fried eggs were 80% potatoes and over whelming spicy to the point you couldn't taste anything else. My husband's breakfast burger was good, though. It's been a few years since I have been here, and I'm not sure I will be back. Was really hoping that was going to be good.

Great spot for breakfast! My son and I visited Milwaukee and stayed down the street at the Iron Horse Hotel. Great trip!

Everyone at my table loved their food. I had the hot chicken and french toast benedict which was everything I hoped for and more.

The bartender (didn't get her name, skinny blonde in a white sweater in Amry pants and a ponytail. Very cute), was amazing. She's the reason I will come back. Service is a lil slow, but the attention upon arrival makes up for the time waiting. Atmosphere is real "social-esk." Worth a visit for shore, especially if you like motorcycles with a vibe. Thank you, Miss. You know who you are.

Fuel Cafe has been on my list for a while, especially since they're such a big sponsor of Flat Out Friday & Mama Tried. Overall, the atmosphere is really cool. There's motorcycle & flat track memorabilia everywhere, not to mention the huge burnout on the bar. We came on a Monday afternoon (around 2pm), so the place was pretty empty. That being said, we were seated right away & our server was attentive. I ordered: --Lavender latte: Not the best coffee I've ever had, not the worst. There was the right amount of lavender syrup, which I really appreciated. I know it's a latte, but I wish there were a more espresso-forward flavor. --Garden of Eatin: Wheat bread spread with jalapeno cream cheese and aioli, with cucumbers, red peppers, onion, tomato, leaf lettuce, sprouts & cheddar with a side of fries. The fries were super crisp & tasty with a perfect flavor & saltiness. The sandwich itself had tasty, buttery bread. The spread added a nice flavor & I loved the fresh veggies. I don't regret my choice but it does feel like something I could make at home; either way, I'd give it a 4 of 5!

The coffee was exquisite, and the service was truly exceptional. While our food arrived lukewarm, the server promptly addressed the issue, ensuring our satisfaction. The outstanding service alone would entice me to return for another visit.

Some food good (Bacon Crack). Some food not (rest of the breakfast food). We had a reservation and they seated others at our table and would not tell them to leave. We waited almost an hour past out reservation time to get a bunch of tables put together so we could eat. Very disappointing and poor customer service. All we got was excuses from the manager and the host. Not professional at all. The server was great though mostly. She did forget our ranch we asked for and forgot about my coffee drink I ordered but was still charged for. All we got for our troubles was two free apps and nothing else was comped. Would visit again but be prepared for waiting even if you have a reservation as that clearly means nothing to this business. Vibes were cool with the decor etc but it was too crowded of a space.

Been here a few times, last time it was almost 20 minutes to get our order. Drinks are always on point.

Drinks and food are good. However it sucks when you've been waiting for 30 minutes and you get sat, and no one talks to you. 3 servers were in the area and no one said anything to us. Terrible service, walked right out and they had the gall to say bye to us.

Great breakfast menu! Interior design was unique with lots of seating available for a group of six.

We stopped in for breakfast on a Monday. Right away the motorcycle theme drew us in. So much to look at. The staff was quick to seat us and take our order. The food was great! Make sure to get the breakfast potatoes and the sausage, you won't be disappointed.Parking: Metered parking takes card or coins.

They leave you waiting a lot and have unoccupied tables.
