    Do you have a favorite place on Fremont st. to have your morning coffee or drink? It's been a few years, but I used to like coffee at top of The D outside steps. My buddy liked to have a Bloody Mary at 4 Queens, at video poker bar. For me it was interesting to watch Downtown wake up...the "all nighters" staggering back to their Hotel, buskers arriving and setting up, the morning walkers etc. Any stories?

    Depending on the drink you are looking for, there is a Starbucks in the Golden Nugget with outdoor seating that is great for people watching in the morning.

    Magnolia’s has great coffee and fuel for the day. And if overlooking the casino you won’t have to worry about crowding issues :rolleyes:

    My favorite part of the day! Every morning I’m in Vegas I head over to the coffee kiosk inside the D and pick up an excellent americano to savor while hammering away on the VP progressive at the Vue Bar, followed by a leisurely stroll down Fremont.

    I like my coffee from dunking donuts. Don't remember what casino it's in. Otherwise I'll take a morning screw from 4Q

    I've only had coffee downtown at Donut Bar... not really Fremont Street. But it was good coffee, and the stuff that goes with it was tasty.

    Didn’t know any downtown casinos offered this service. And they don’t even charge a resort fee at 4 Queens!

    Donut Bar has good, inexpensive coffee to go with their large donuts.

    I usually get a cup at Dunkin’ at the Fremont and chill by playing some video poker.

    When my lovely bride wakes up we walk to Starbucks near the Bonneville Transit Center. The employees are always very friendly, the walk is refreshing, we can use our rewards there plus it’s interesting to see downtown waking up.

    I get up around 6, whereas my wife sleeps till 9. I like playing VP early in the morning, enjoying two to three Bailey’s and coffee and watch the casino ‘wake up’. Usually at the VUE Bar, or the Four queens floor.

    EAT has great coffee but doesn’t open til 8. They have a bar you can sit at but no video poker. It’s on Carson Street across from the Container Park.

    I do that Starbucks walk sometimes. it is a nice little break from the chaos and bucket beating.

    What "rewards" do they take at the Starbucks by the BTC?

    Starbucks rewards. Generally casino located Starbucks do not allow you to use your “rewards=stars” to get free drinks, food etc...Not to mention the premium you pay in said casino Starbucks.

    Ok. I drink pots of coffee at home. Not at Starbucks enough to accumulate much...was hoping it was GG/D rewards like you can use at some restaurants around Fremont.
