No waffles were involved — but it’s still a Pawnee-level treat.

Diesel Cafe had a VIP visitor recently when actress Amy Poehler walked through the door.

The cafe shared a photo on social media of Poehler with employee Autumn, who recognized “a familiar face” when she stepped in, according to the post’s caption.

A Burlington native and Boston College alum, Poehler is a Primetime Emmy Award winner and two-time Golden Globe winner, known for her iconic role as Leslie Knope on “Parks and Recreation” and her tenure on “Saturday Night Live,” where she co-anchored “Weekend Update.”

“Does this make Diesel officially an A-List status cafe?” the cafe’s post reads.
