An elusive parking lot entrance can make it not seem worthwhile, but a good location vindicates it. Despite the heavily-trafficked corner, the patio is quiet and lively.

Cafe du Soleil is at the core of The Drive. A couple blocks north of Commercial Station, this vegetarian cafe boasts sandwiches, soups, wraps, smoothies, and beer. Even more characteristic of The Drive, some items seem wholly overpriced while other seem to be mostly financed by the other items. But at $5 for some soups and sandwiches, things might even out if you don’t just go to drink. There’s a wide variety of tables and booths for any type of groups and a small stage.
