As the leaves change color and the frost moves in, what better way to warm up then with a nice warm beverage? The E-Street Cafe is just one of Ramstein’s places to obtain the desired cup of joe. With friendly service and a full menu of seasonal delights, it’s hard not to stop in for a morning or afternoon treat.

“We often cater to the request of our customers, you want it: we make it,” says Alex Flaugher, E-Street Cafe barista. “Most times individuals just take the menu drinks and add flavors and ingredients until it’s all their own. Making a special drink is fun and really easy, we already have the supplies and we like to experiment. “
The E-Street Cafe has around 600 purchases a day and an estimated one million customers per year. Not only do they have a wide selection of cold and hot beverages, they also have a selection of food and desserts; to include wraps, bagels, muffins and a variety of cheesecakes.  

Specials for the holiday seasons include a variety of fall and winter themed drinks.
“The E-Street Cafe is my early morning life saver,” said Dennise Everheart, a Black Friday shopping enthusiast. “With all the seasonal flavors they added to the specials, there’s no better way to get me up and ready for the holidays.” Not only do they spread the season cheer to all they serve, they also make time to serve the community. Last month was breast cancer awareness month, said Michael Forcier, 86th Force Support Squadron. The E-Club Cafe was dedicated to the cause by selling shirts and other supportive merchandise, which allowed all the money raised to be donated to the cause. “Base support or community involvement, call it what you will,” said Flaugher. “Our team tries to do as much as we can with our customers and the Ramstein community.”

The E Street Cafe is located in the Ramstein Enlisted Club. Hours of operation are from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. Sunday to Thursday, and 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. Friday and Saturday.
