Fuel Café

I was in need of a coffee and something to snack on before heading to the Rehab Pool Party. This was on the way to the pool, so I stopped in for a chef salad and an iced coffee and my friends ordered a couple of breakfast burritos and a latte.
I’m surprised by all of the 1 star reviews because when we went, service was great, coffee tasted fine/​woke me up, and my chef salad was filling and surprisingly good. Yes, my salad was a tad over-​priced, but if you’re coming to Vegas looking for a deal, you might want to pack your own food then. I could have gone somewhere else for a snack, but because of the convenient location to where I was headed, Fuel Café hit the spot.

Avoid this crappie hole! At first it looks like a nice little joint then you get your food and serve neither one were on point! The food and service was terrible! First the girl gave us a salad that was in the display cabinet and it sitting out all day and the lettuce was Brown! Then they were out of the Caesar dressing for the Caesar salad! Then I ordered the cucumber sandwich and the bread was hard as a rock!

Do not even think about coming to this «café». First I tried to order an Italian wrap, which they were out of, So I asked for a turkey wrap which was old and mushy… My friend ordered a Caesar salad and they were out of caesar dressing and the only other choice was ranch. The ranch was sour and my wrap had old sprouts on it which had started to turn brown.
Seems this place bulk orders everything premade and keeps it refrigerated until someone decides to purchase it. And that statement came from one of their own employees!
I would not recommend this place to anyone… Even if you’re in a hurry and need a quick bite… Go elsewhere!

Cool coffee shop in the lobby of the Hard Rock. It’s a little overpriced but it’s good and it’s convienant if you aren’t driving while in town. They have coffee, lattes, cappachinos, etc. They also have breakfast options like burritos, sandwiches, etc.
They have some seating inside as well as right outside the café.

This places coffee is terrible! Stayed at the hard rock and went this place on 2 separate days just to give it another shot as I’m an avid coffee drinker in the mornings.
I only went to 2 stars as the food selection is decent, comparable to Starbucks. But the coffee is gross, near undrinkable if you are a GOOD coffee person, if you will drink any old pot of burnt coffee put in front of you this is the place for you!

Lots of coffee & espresso options. The mocha is okay, the latte is not very good. The pastries/​desserts look like they came from a gas station. They are really quick, which I appreciate. I wish they would offer almond milk as an alternative to the soy & dairy options.

4 stars because the java was pretty good.

This little café is located in the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino, so it’s the go-​to place when you wake up and are looking for that morning caffeine boost. Luckily, it’s not too bad. I had a french vanilla cappuccino and a plain bagel with cream cheese.
It’s noting to write home about, but it was pretty good. The place was clean. The staff was friendly. The prices were unremarkable and to be expected for Vegas. The seating area was limited, so first-​come, first-​served or just grab and go.

Arrived late into Vegas and needed some food. Stopped by here on the way up to the hotel room and got an egg and sausage breakfast sandwich with cheese. Was greasy and small and pricey, but OK in terms of taste. Definitely would have enjoyed it more if it wasn’t so greasy!

When we needed a quick food on the go place, this was where we went every morning. They had coffee, juice and drinks as well. There were sandwiches, breads, fruit and snacks to have if you wanted as well. The yummy treats that my girlfriend and I enjoyed were the red velvet waffle and the chocolate waffle. Made fresh and delicious to have quickly in the mornings! :) Also had the Thai Chicken wrap, which was on the sweet side, but still good nonetheless. Their iced coffee was really good as well! Great place to get a quick bite to eat!

Super overpriced but I had a casino comp and $ 15 got me a shitty breakfast sandwich and a tasty vanilla latte.

Why do I need to show an ID for a 7 purchase??? That’s ridiculous. Also the chocolate croissant was flat and had almost no chocolate. The food in the window should either be plastic or preserved so it doesn’t look so unappetizing. I guess when you are in a hotel that has conferences you don’t need to care about customers since they are always revolving.

The coffee is great, and the breakfast burrito was okay. I don’t think the hours posted here are correct though. I went at 5:15 desperate for coffee, and it was not yet open. The employee said 5:30, and the website says 7:00. Probably not an issue for most folks in Las Vegas. ;)

As far as I’m aware, this is one of the only places at the Hard Rock that offers tea. Culinary Drop Out and Mr. Lucky’s don’t serve none of that, FYI.
I came here twice to get my tea fix. It’s $ 2.60 for a 12 oz cup, which I suppose is reasonable. Actually, the prices here aren’t as inflated as cafes at other resorts. I can’t comment on the food; though, the pre-​packaged offerings didn’t look appetizing.
Service wasn’t as bad as others have experienced. The café was full of patrons when I came here in the morning, making it not the ideal place to quickly grab something to eat and drink and then head off. Might want to go elsewhere for that.

Came in and it was empty. Had 3 people to help and give suggestions. A yummy donuts (6 cream filled — your choice of chocolate, raspberry or cream) with a coffee for $ 7. Perfect to hold me over til dinner time. Had the iced chai tea latte with soy milk and added a shot for an extra boost. Yum! Thanks for a great experience while we waited to go to our dinner at 5. Plenty of food options too if you don’t want a donut. Oh and Unilocal said they were closed until 5pm, but I was happily surprised that they were open.

Stopping by at 10 pm for a caffeinated beverage does you no good — even as the hours are listed that they close at 11pm :(

Had a coupon for free coffee, but I needed to buy a sandwich or dessert! So after looking at the menu the girl tells me we only have sausage mc muffin or bacon and egg! I was like okay great choices! Not! The sandwich was whatever’s to expensive 7 bucks really?? not the best tasting sandwich! It was like McDonald, but more Cheese melted on paper wrap! Lol seriously but this place gets a star for their coffee!

I popped in during the afternoon for a bit to eat and a pop. It was dead and there was only one girl working. She was cleaning and stocking and getting ready to close. I asked for a slice of pizza and she went to heat it up right away. The pizza is either made else where or just earlier in the day. It was fine for being in a hotel as a small eating place.
They do have some awesome donuts but they only make them for a few hours in the morning.
The girl was fast and offered me cheese or red pepper for my pizza which was nice. She wasn’t super friendly but she was obviously trying to go home which I can understand. It was okay. Convenient if your staying at the Hardrock paradise tower and don’t want to go all the way to the other side of the casino.

Any place that gets me my morning Caffeine Fix fast, uses quality Coffee, has reasonable prices and good Customer Service gets Four Stars from me!

4 stars for chai.
0 stars for customer service.
Chai was surprisingly good. Huh. Thanks barista man who made it ! You’re a super star !
Customer service: We were on break from the conference & decided to get some chai. Had 3 – 4 people and after I named all of the drink orders cashier said they need to see ID with debit/​credit cards.
Ugh fine — but maybe put up a sign !! She said she will get the drinks started so it will be ready when I get back.
Walked all the way back and stood at the register for a bit — there were 4 more customers at that point that had not ordered yet — she rang me up and we waited. Everyone got their drinks before we did — including those that hadn’t ordered yet when she was swiping my card. They also forgot some guys tea. So
A. They didn’t start it like she stated they would
B. They forgot about us and made Drinks for 8 or so people before making ours.
And here’s the most annoyingly part — guy in his wheelchair spills his coffee on his hand and on the ground in the middle of the café. They didn’t close the lid right enough so as he was putting his cup into the holder the lid just slipped off * good job guys !!!
He tells the barista folks and no one goes to wipe it up — mind you its in the middle of the floor = safety hazard. So guy in the wheelchair starts wiping the floor — you“d think they would stop him and clean it’s up? Nope.

I wasn’t expecting much at this café, since it was at the Hard Rock. It was pretty dead when we came in. The girl at the register wasn’t too bad. She took our order and went straight to making our drinks. She was by herself. We got our drinks pretty quickly. Took us about 5 – 10 minutes. My ice black tea was good, not sweet as I requested so I’m happy about that. The one thing I didn’t like about this visit was she didn’t wash her hands after she used the register and sneezed then make our drinks. It’s gross.
We had our coffee and tea, then my friend texted me to get her a coffee too. We went back in to order another drink, this time there were 3 other people in front of us. It took a while for us to place an order because it’s only one person working. Then we see another girl walk in from some where else carrying a bunch of items and sat those down on the counter behind the bar. She went straight into making the drinks on the bar. Once again, this barista didn’t wash her hands either before touching food and beverage items. This last visit took about 15 – 20 minutes for latte.
Staffs need to wash their hands after touching themselves and doing anything else before serving customers!!! This is a place where germs are spread like crazy!

The Service was bellow my expectations.
So I was at the hotel for the weekend and we decided to get coffee, bagels and oatmeal for breakfast. We were one of the first one to get in line and the cashier was amiable. The bad part was when the other lady made our order. The iced coffee that I got was more water than anything! And I told her and she asked me if what I said was true about the coffee and I told her that she needs to make me a new one but instead a frappé. So she did and she also burned our bagels! So it took her a long time for our order and she also gave us an attitude. I’m never coming to this coffee shop ever again.

Just sucks! I’ve never had this experience in my life .Such a no manner staff. Make me so upset from morning! Unbelievably stupid attitude for customers. I can see this company does not give any education for staff.
Also they didn’t prepare oven so they asked me wait 15min for my sandwiches. I waited for more than 25 min there. Just don’t go to this place.
I have to put 1 star but for real this place is lower than –5 star!!!

Out of two coffees, one was fine and the other came out tasting burnt and disgusting. Staff was lackadaisical, not sure why I tipped at all if you’re going to set my drink on the counter furthest away from where I’m sitting and not even call my name– I don’t expect you to walk out to me necessarily, but if I am literally your only customer and you can’t be bothered to do the bare minimum, maybe you shouldn’t be open.

Came here to get a late breakfast before wandering out for the day. They were really packed. Apparently it’s the place to come and leave your suitcases in the middle of the floor while you’re waiting to leave for the airport.
We got a couple of coffees (which were lava hot) and a bagel and a muffin. It was all good, for being coffee and a bagel.

Pretty good coffee drinks using Illy. Not that jacked up of a price considering that it’s Illy & in the hotel. But service can be slow. My friend waited for her breakfast sandwich for at least 20 minutes and clearly they forgot about her. My turkey pesto sandwich with cheese didn’t look like a bagel sandwich in the display case but it was. It was pretty dry and bland sadly.
Just come here to get coffee.
