Although on a regular afternoon, Crave Café may seem a little too hectic for studying, it is definitely a great place for night owls who enjoy getting work done at a later time, as they are open 24 hours. Along with the usual lattes and cappuccinos most coffee shops offer, Crave also serves eggs and omelets, both sweet and savory crepes, salads, and even paninis to keep energy flowing for the long night ahead. The workers, always energetic and friendly no matter what time you come in, combined with the offbeat decorations on the walls make studying a bit more enjoyable.
