2nd Street Café Express

Crema's Take

Tucked inside a casino but standing entirely on its own merits, 2nd Street Café Express wins devotion for its exceptional pastries—especially an apple fritter that inspires pilgrimages from regulars who've traveled the country for forty years. Open 24 hours with a genuinely cozy atmosphere, it's become the reliable refuge for insomniacs, early-morning workers, and anyone craving oversize pizza slices and a chocolate muffin at 2 AM, all handled with warmth by a manager who treats custom cake orders like personal celebrations.

I've been coming here for years with nothing to do with the casino in which it is located within, but solely for their apple fritter. The best I've ever had after traveling 40+ years of my life.

Open 25 hours which was nice for some midnight pizza, VERY large slices, I ordered 2 but should have had one. No complaints.

This place is very cozy. I enjoyed the wide selection of pastries which were all delicious. I really the chocolate muffin. Their pizza slides are large too. I liked that it was open 24 hours so I could get food at a reasonable price all day. The staff are super friendly too. Great place to work and grab a bite

If you’re in town, at the GSR for work - I recommend keeping this place in mind! It’s especially helpful to have somewhere open 24hrs when you have early call times and nothing else is open… or if you work really late haha. Be aware, I’m pretty sure the use chef mike for a lot of things here (microwave). I tried: -Sausage bagel: the sausage was very small, and very hard lol - probably overcooked… -Philly cheese steak: 9/10 honestly haha, very good -Chorizo burrito: pretty good, I’m from Phoenix so I have pretty high burrito standards… I would buy this again, but more out of necessity than anything ha! The staff is always super helpful, and the prices, although still high, are better than anywhere else in the resort!

The manager of the cafe and bakery was outstanding! I ordered a 5 layer cake for my sons 21st birthday and it turned out incredible! I could not have been more pleased. I would highly recommend them.
