Over the last week, we have tried multiple different coffee shops in Rapid City. Alternative Fuel is by far our favorite! We found ourselves back there time and time again.
The coffee was so good it didn't need any sweetener or cream.
The atmosphere was very laid back. We loved the music and the messages.
The fact that they had delicious GF options for my children who need them was AMAZING! (Gluten Free) The food that they got was very tasty, even by my non-GF standards.
This coffee shop was less convenient than others in the area (no drive through) but was 100% worth parking and going in!
We loved the outside tables right on the square. It was very enjoyable being able to sit outside and enjoy the beautiful early-summer mornings, and some days, there were even activities going on there.
Daughter wanted bagels, other place yesterday, this one today, and she said Black Hills Bagels is hands down the winner. For me too! Delicious white mocha with almond milk, and gluten free bagels! ❤️ Such a cute shop with a chill vibe, and cool selection of awesome stickers. Will be a mandatory stop every time we're in Rapid City from now on!

The service was amazing. Wendy did a phenomenal job taking care of us. Our drinks never went dry and she was always there. Got our order right the first time and my goodness. The pancakes where amazing. And they even offer gluten free burge runs and possibly toast. Definitely recommended if you are a local or a visitor.
Went in with a large group. Service was quick and polite. Everyone seemed happy with their meal. I didn't eat because of food allergies. If you are gluten/dairy intolerant I do not recommend.
Dunn Bros in Rapid City is really amazing. The nirvana is simply the best coffee out there. I also got the Tuscan turkey sandwich on gluten free bread. It's rare to find a gluten free option that tastes good, but Dunn Bros has figured it out.
Pretty good place to get some pizza. Prices aren't too bad. Not the most amazing pizza, but still good. Very limited on pizza customization. Gluten free crust is an option. The service wasn't very friendly. The soda machine needs updated. I wouldn't call this place a hard pass, but I wouldn't highly recommend it either.
