Stopped by Bean Traders for the first time and I can already tell it won’t be the last. The coffee was really good, and the sesame bagel with cream cheese and cucumbers was surprisingly amazing…they definitely don’t go cheap on the cream cheese haha. Really liked the place and the whole vibe there. Y’all will definitely see me back again soon.

What a cool place. And it's next to Sprouts. It was packed in here. The baristas are super friendly and helpful. They have a full, creative food menu. I only got an iced latte, which was superb. The espresso beans were more light roast with fruity notes, but still prominent in the latte complex. The line was super long at 10:30 am on a Friday. Also, very good prices for the quality and the current economy. There is a lot of seating... but all the seats were taken. Popular spot. Definitely a must try in Durham.

I wish they would just read the ticket times and make them in order. I used to go every day but had to stop coming so much because they constantly make me late. If I order a bagel and a latte, most of the time the coffee is ready in 2 mins and the bagel in 20-30 mins or vice versa. Today I placed a to go order for a hot marshmallow matcha and a cinnamon bagel. Bagel arrived in 2 mins, on a plate though, not to go. I stood where the drinks come out for about 20 minutes, asked about my order which they said was coming, but continued to make other drinks for people who ordered after me. I eventually gave up when I realized they had not even started on my drink and sat down to eat my already cold bagel. As I’m finishing the bagel, they called my name. I literally had like 3-4 bites left so I continued eating it. They continued to call my name multiple times while I was trying to finish eating. I have had many experiences like this here, it’s a shame because I do like this coffee shop but my order is often skipped or forgotten. Nobody wants to wait 30 minutes for a drink, especially after already receiving their food. Every single person in line behind me was helped first, I think they simply decided to prioritize the drinks they found easiest.

Was in the area for the Apple Store and dropped by twice in a week. A big store front with lots of seating. Pretty welcoming to people with laptops too!
Ordered a hot chocolate coffee first time - it was great! You can taste the drip coffee and the actual chocolate which comes through with more than just sweetness. The chocolate milk was foamy and creamy. There was some chocolate shavings on top as well :)
For my second time, ordered the egg salad with crackers and an iced tea latte with chocolate strawberry tea - the crackers are more like pie scraps which are flaky and delicious! egg salad is very creamy as well :))
