Rise & Shine Fuel Coffee

“Give Me Fuel, Give Me Fire, Give Me That Which I Desire!” Metallica But for my purposes it would apply to all of the tasty hot and cold refreshing beverages and treats @ Fuel. Best place on the Western Slope to recharge and to chill.

Inside a funny looking building on Hwy 92 in Delta, CO, you'll find a most wonderful café serving coffee, tea, breakfast, lunch...and some of the most delectable treats you'll ever encounter. When you first arrive, you wonder if it's actually a fuel depot. Then, stepping inside, you find yourself in a very comfortable, inviting setting designed to make one feel at home. It definitely has a ton of class! And the "fuel" they serve is outta this world! Check out these incredible coffee creations: the "Lumberjack" (chocolate, maple, salted caramel!), the "Charlie Brown" (chocolate, hazelnut, macadamia nut!), and the "Campfire Mocha" (chocolate, toasted marshmallow, brown sugar cinnamon!). We tried the weekly special a while back -- the "Horchata" -- and were blown away by the authentic flavor of this coffee offering. R&SFC also has a healthy variety of herbal teas as well. But those desserts! Those fantastic desserts! The cake pops are to die for! The bagels are fantastic, too! This place is always busy -- inside and sit-down -- to the drive-through...but the staff ALWAYS has time for their customers! Great coffee! Beautifully inventive drinks! Great food! Fantastic and very very friendly service! We love making excuses to stop in and delight in R&SFC's menu...even if they are not on our to-do list. The cafe is just that gooooooood! Keep up the great work! You have a pair of loyal customers! Thanks!

By far still my favorite coffee place on the Western slope! They have such amazing blended drinks! Every month they have fun special drinks. Right now they have a murder mystery one where they create you something. The sweet woman made me the best drink and she is very intuitive because it was all my favorites in one delicious cup of heaven. They always welcome you like a friend here. They have zodiac teas which I love doing tea leaf readings with. They have comfy chairs where you can just chill for hours in. Please get the jalapeno bagel you will thank me later!

I visited this coffee shop for the first time yesterday and had a good, relaxing coffee experience. The location mildly convenient, is interestingly decorated on the outside and especially on the inside, is right off of Rt. 92 near Delta town center, is confusing to figure out the front entrance and especially back exit and how to find and get to their back parking lot, there are beautiful flowers lining the path into the shop from the back, was not greeted as I entered, there's an abundance of different kind of seating including comfortable seating, the dining room was clean, no music was playing, their free WiFi worked well, their WiFi password was prominently displayed, the employees are varying degrees of friendliness, their coffee is tasty, their beverage & food menu includes a ton of things with many pastries, and the restrooms were beautifully decorated and clean.

What a great space to hang out and have a coffee!! Coffee was good and has to be one of the coolest, comfiest coffee shops to sit and enjoy that I’ve ever been in…and we travel and check out coffee shops all over the US!

I just love this place. First, the coffee. It is my last addiction so my strength standards are high. You can fix too strong coffee... water it down, cream and sugar it to death, but as we say in the South... where weak coffee is concerned... don't pee on my shoe and tell me it's raining. And that ice coffee is STRONG. I sometimes save half for later. Have had an egg, cheese, and guac croissandwich that was delicious and reasonable... generous on all items, good size croissant. And the folks who work there are stellar... on the ball, A+ friendly... and I may sound old, but I have not found that to be true of late in the 25 and unders. (I am NOT hopeless AT ALL... and believe they will save us, ultimately with their open-mindedness and forward thinking... story for another time... but this team is downright adorable, utterly delightful, and does more than the bare minimum. Truly heartening.) And the atmosphere is utter charm. The one thing is I am not a huge fan of fluorescent lights, the only non-natural light. HOWEVER, it is combated by a huge front window that frames a glorious view of the mountains and through which pours natural light, but never so directly as to glare due to the sensibly placed overhang outfront... Aesthetics? Charm? Visual engagement? Well, I'll there are plenty of pictures, but I'll add some from my perspective.

The very best coffee and the very best service in all of Delta! No matter if you are stopping in for a quick or staying to have a get together company meeting, you will always get exactly what you hope for… a beautiful space to enjoy your coffee, quick sweet service, and reasonable prices!
