Excellent cafe! We stopped by on a Saturday afternoon because we were in the area and I desperately needed a coffee. I was unprepared for the incredible surprises of all this cafe has to offer! The ladies next to us were having a “girls day” and had scrumptious looking sandwiches and salads, I wished I had room for a whole meal. We decided to try something sweet with our coffee and have it “for here” because the staff were so kind and warm. Feels like a wonderful place run very excellently. I can’t wait to visit again. Great place for a date, family outing or “girls lunch”. -
Phenomenal Cuban sandwich… this is a sandwich I am gonna think about often. Also had an ice dirty chai latte and it too, was phenomenal.
The space inside runs a little bit warm in the summer, the space is bright and open, then environment is friendly. I didn’t check out the restrooms but the space looks easy to navigate if you use disability aids. -
Happily Memorable first visit. Robin and Aubrey walked me through the options with superior affability. Lavish sweets surpassed the reputation. A pleasure! -
We stopped by to have lunch after a medical appointment in Durham. The little one in our groupie really likes this restaurant because of the dessert offerings. He ordered all kinds of pastries which were fruit-shaped. He enjoyed those.
We ordered a tuna melt and a deli house salad. The salad was particularly good.
The service was average, nothing special. The display of desserts is quite tempting. -
A good variety of desserts are here and they are all delicious! I especially love the peach one! It just tastes so fresh! I’ve been here a few times and it’s always yummy! The employees here are always very friendly and kind! The fancy desserts are about 10$ each and the standard/normal ones are about 5$-2.50$. They have a decent amount of seating inside along with some outdoor seating!
