The coffee here is absolutely divine, and if it wasn't so far from where I live, it would be my go-to for everything. I don't have a very large sweet-tooth, but wanted to give their turtle-frappucchino a try. To my delight, it was sweet without being over the top, like some mixed coffee drinks you get through drive-thrus. It wasn't full of whipped cream or drowning in chocolate and caramel, but everything was blended beautifully. I was so impressed, that I make sure to stop out any time I have to run to Woodman's for groceries.

Lots of seating available inside and they also had a drive thru. We didn't get food but our drinks were very good. The menu was large and a little overwhelming as we weren't really sure what each drink consisted of and it was too busy to ask too many questions. Would definitely go again but would try to look online first for drink descriptions to be a little more prepared!

A cozy end to a fantastic vacation…read more Tim described Racy D'lenes as what coffeehouses were like before they exploded everywhere. What he would consider to be a true coffeehouse. This got me excited as I do like a genuine cozy coffeehouse that does it's own thing and Racy was just that. We rolled in around 9am to get coffee and enjoy the quietness before Matt and I drove home. The sky was overcast with the constant threat of rain. The inside of Racy was nice and cozy. I got my americano, a giant chocolate chip cookie and a funny sticker for my final Eau Claire experience. Tim and Matt both got the Cadbury Egg latte. The place was a bit busy so we ended up sitting on this couch. We weren't crammed in there but 3 grown males put it to the test. I kid you not, this americano and cookie may have been the best thing I had during this whole trip. I know I'm easily excitable and tend to give high praise for most things but those two things were legit delicious. The cookie was so good that it made me wish I got a hot coffee just to dunk it in as that sounded divine. Both Matt and Tim said their latte were amazing and tasted just like a Cadbury egg. As we sat there and made small talk and went over the fun of the last few days, I couldn't help but look around and notice all the little things strewn about the place. There was a tank with a live turtle in it. There was a skeleton handing from the skeleton talking to someone (I couldn't see where the line went) via a can and string. The walls were painted or had stuff hanging up. This place must've been here for a long time now. Speaking of the cozy feeling, if this place had a fireplace, I would've fallen asleep so easily. I was already nodding off due to the weather and being perfectly content and settled in, it wouldn't have taken much more to slip off into a light snooze. Now that would've been a first for me, falling asleep in a coffeehouse... but if you've been here on a rainy day, you would understand. Eventually we made our way outside and were doing the midwestern goodbye when it started to sprinkle. That put a little pep in our step to get back to our cars and say goodbye to Eau Claire. Two things to keep in mind for visiting here is that its on the backside of The Nucleus and that since it's on the backside of a building, parking is very limited and you may need to park on the street if it's busy. Racy D'lenes... I will definitely be back.

They have tables available and also couches/chairs for a more comfortable experience! There are some parking spots available in the back or street parking is an option. They also allow you to use reusable mugs, so feel free to bring them if you're getting a drink to go! Edited review based on business response: Based off of the Visit Eau Claire website for dog friendly places, I previously understood that Racy's was dog friendly. It indicated, "Racy D'lene's Coffee Lounge - You and the pup can enjoy a laid-back morning or afternoon at Racy's together. Their coffee and sandwiches and pastries will be a real treat for both you and your trusty four-legged sidekick." It appears that is not accurate and dogs are not allowed inside the building.

I didn't even know this was a thing until one of my friends had mentioned it to me. The menu is limited with donuts as it should be. The options should only be the best! We got donut holes, brown butter donut and the classic glazed. I've ordered the Nutella one before and that one was pretty great! You can tell these donuts are kind of stale though, which is kind of a disappointment. I would assume the donuts if you live in Mn would taste more fresh, so I will have to stop in at the brick and mortar store in Mn. There's really no options of fresh baked donuts besides the grocery stores around here and Dunkin Donuts. I would recommend coming here, since there is no bakeries around that specialize in really good Donuts. I would prefer these donuts over Dunkin Donuts any-day, but just wish these would taste a little more fresh. I didn't love it, but didn't hate it either. I did love our drinks though. We got a mocha a d a Megacano, I know the drink menu changes seasonally. So check it out the website for menu changes for drinks. The store has merchandise they sell too, so I have a few pics.
