Walk-in Coffee Closet at Ruane's Den

This café, located in Harkness House, is a favorite spot to study, meet with friends or just grab a latte. Built with a generous gift from the Ruane family, it's a cozy, 1,500-square-foot coffee shop complete with comfy couches, wireless Internet and two large-screen televisions. The café serves baked goods, coffee, tea, cappuccinos, hot chocolate and their famous Nutella latte. While primarily designed as a student space, the café is also open to faculty, staff and campus visitors.
The Walk-in Coffee Closet is only open during the academic year, beginning in August, and is closed during breaks.
