I ve been there only once but i would like to mention the kindness of the staff here . Independent coffee that you are happy to spend your money at ! I definitely recommend it to my friends . Good products and we love their kindness !
Employees and what seemed to be the manager appeared to be rushing around and unhappy even when it was a slow Tuesday morning, which is not the environment you want in a coffee shop. Speed is not impressive. Espresso had a terrible flavor profile. Overrated and Durham has much better options for coffee shops where the employees actually seem happy to be there.
Nice place to sit and enjoy a cup of coffee and a bit of breakfast. We had the Mexican Mochi and a waffle 🧇. Both were delicious. Friendly staff and parking validation make this a go to spot for us.
Both the iced Chai Latte and Americano were delicious. Friendly and attentive staff. Very quick service, and the space is beautiful. Comfortable and vibrant atmosphere but quiet enough to have a conversation or focus on work.
I went on a Saturday after farmers market and regretted choosing to have coffee here, especially with so many other options around. I’m not exaggerating when I say it took forever to get our coffees (the owner should really consider investing in more machines). The wait wasn’t even the worst part, the taste of the coffee was terrible. We ordered a chai latte (horrible), a mocha (horrible), and a latte (it was okay). I don’t recommend getting anything here.

Serving Durham with locally roasted coffee, delicious bites, and a cozy community vibe.
