| - While walking along the Fremont Street Experience on my earlier jaunts to view the famed Fremont Street Experience Light Show years ago, I got thirsty for a nice, hot coffee. It was a cold October day. Lo and behold, this Starbucks Coffee Shop situated inside the Golden Nugget Casino Hotel in Downtown "Old Vegas" was the answer to my beverage thirst.
Oh, goodness:
I recommend this not only for that great coffee Starbucks is known for but for the spectacular spectacle for any scenery-watching and sightseer like me is this location's relaxed seating on its outside patio.
Seatings and tables surrounded by a wrought iron fixture surround which wraps this patio right on the Fremont Street Experience pavement. I sat and watched the light show drinking my coffee and a pastry treat! Several visits followed thereafter, when friends and family is in the city to relish the spectacle of the Light Show and this place presents a seated outdoors "theatre experience".
The staff service is attentive and prompt.
A cozy little coffee shop with seatings inside the shop, too.
Besides the coffee, I like their cheesecake, chocolate eclairs and fruit tarts all at a price between $2.95-3.95... a little on the above-average pricing.
What, not tech-y?
My most recent visit was this month to meet my Mom, I have found out that one thing that this Starbucks is not up-to-date for is the absence of "Free Wi-Fi" unlike other locations in the U.S.
Note this:
There are two locations of Starbucks in Golden Nugget. The other is in The South Tower but it opens only from 5a.m.-10p.m. Best yet eversince with THIS LOCATION OVERLOOKS the Fremont Street Experience, this coffee shop stays OPEN 24 HOURS!
