Megan D.September 20, 2011A Bicycle Benefits sticker gets you a free small coffee with any purchase.
Greg PfeilApril 25, 2010I love the food, but the wifi is the worst— expensive, slow, and unreliable. Every few months I forget the pain and sign up again, then quickly regret it.
Large iced soy latte after a good work out. Their large is LARGE. Thirst quenched.
try the cider delux while it's still in season or the tuck's turtle!

Ask for the accelerator with an extra shot. (via Scoville) Read more
- Omg get the green tea latte iced! It tastes like a GT ice cream milk shake! :D
Iced coffee with a shot of vanilla tastes just like lucky charms.
Go to Diesel Cafe and try the egg and cheese sandwich on focaccia instead of the default bagel. Fewer calories, tastier.
Nick MartucciJuly 6, 2013Unimpressive. Like an Au Bon Pain or a Panera with more hipster cred. Sandwiches are overpriced and sub par.
Kiersten MaillerMay 8, 2012This place sucks. The food is great, but they charge for wireless and are always packed with people taking up 4 person tables by themselves. Go to Starbucks.
Gilly RosentholMarch 18, 2010Get the raspberry lime rickey -- perfect refreshing treat for a warm day.
- Don't get the large Thai iced tea. It'll eat you ALIVE. XD

"plenty of gluten free options and they take extra care for no cross contamination when making sandwiches for celiacs like me. coffee and food is amazing - worth every penny!"
Toni P - 9.0
"The most European-style coffee place in the area. Order a shot of espresso to take at the standing bar. The cortado is my go-to here...so good."
Lindsay D'Andrea - 6.0
"The sandwiches are outstanding, the espresso is the best around, and you can play a record on the turn table. A great new addition to the neighborhood. A strong alternative to bloc 11 or Sherman cafe."
