Central Cafe is Stephanie Prescott's go to coffee place, right next door to REMAX Capitol Properties

If you work or live near Lions Park and the Avenues in Cheyenne, Wyoming, you already know Central Cafe.

Tucked between this beloved neighborhood and downtown, it has become one of the community's favorite gathering spots. It is easy to see why.
The building was once a gas station that sat vacant for years while awaiting environmental clearance. Sam Galeotos saw the potential, purchased it, and transformed it into the neighborhood anchor it is today. Walk in and you’ll spot a photo on the wall showing what it used to look like. It is a testament to how far it has come.
The menu covers all the bases, from cold brew and espresso drinks to avocado toast, breakfast sandwiches, soups, and salads. They also carry locally made caramels from Fallon’s Baked Goods, which make wonderful gifts. As real estate professionals, we are always on the lookout for thoughtful closing gifts that connect our clients to the community. Central Cafe delivers on that front. Central Cafe’s support of other local businesses is just one more reason to love them.
The renovation is something to behold. The space has been beautifully reimagined with dark grey and white blends, French bistro chairs, and white marble tables, all accented by trendy light fixtures with hints of metallic gold. It seamlessly blends modern sophistication with a warmth that makes you want to linger. There’s even a little patio out front for those glorious Wyoming days.
Central Cafe sits in the neighborhood nestled between Lions Park and the Avenues, just a stone’s throw from downtown Cheyenne, and just across the street from us, REMAX Capitol Properties. It is the kind of place that anchors a neighborhood. Locals pop in before work, meet a friend for lunch, or treat themselves to an afternoon cappuccino. They also make it easy with their drive-thru! It is a quick pit stop before work because it is conveniently located on Central Avenue on your way to Downtown Cheyenne, where most community members travel for work and entertainment.
In a world of chain coffee shops, places like Central Cafe are worth celebrating. It is a local business that transformed an important part of Cheyenne into a true community gathering place. And it just keeps getting better.
If you haven’t been yet, do yourself a favor and stop in to see our neighbors! Central Cafe is open Monday through Friday, starting at 5:30 AM, and trust us, once you go, you’ll be back.
