I’m proud to call this a piece of my hometown. I’ve sadly never been since moving away but was delighted to stop in for brunch. They have house made specialties and seasonal items. Everything is freshly made from their bakery to the bar and food. Indoor and outdoor spaces with light and airy vibes, rustic and home-like interior. It can get very packed and busy but they are efficient with the ordering process. It’s truly a gem!

I read the good reviews on Google and decided to give this place a try for breakfast. I ordered the Eggs Benny on brioche with thinly sliced extra smoky ham and it was tasty. I liked it a lot more than Canadian Bacon. Our table also had the sausage and potato omelet, some fries, a pancake and thick cut bacon. Please show some love for decaf coffee folks and keep a hot pot available. Mine was lukewarm at best.

This was a lovely place but I had to ding the ratings service and atmosphere because of how confusing it was. There's a bakery (awesome) and a restaurant. The bakery is down some stairs and to the right. The line to the restaurant is to the left. There's a ramp that leads down to a window where you order. They put out a sign with instructions basically saying not to line up on the ramp, but it was very unclear if that meant we could start lining up at the window before they opened at 9am and no one gave us any kind of direction other than the sign.
The food was good. My wife and sister-in-law shared an omlette and a single pancake. I got the smashed avocado omlette and a hot cardamom latte. We left with full bellies. -
What a gem! They serve food all day but I’m stuck on the morning / early afternoon brunch menu. The avocado Benedict is my favorite menu item (sub fruit for fries and get the curry ketchup) but the croissant sandwich, the chicken sandwich and the Rueben are all amazing as well. The bakery is top notch, my go to’s are the sea salt chocolate chip cookie, earl grey scone and the brownie. The danishes and croissants are fantastic also. The coffee drinks are incredible and the menu for them changes seasonally - I had the blackberry cardamom latte today and it was delicious.
The outside seating is a pleasant atmosphere with lots of art sculptures to look at and I definitely prefer sitting outside but the inside is beautiful and comfortable as well.
One of my favorite places in Durham ❤️ -
Super cool German spot, love the atmosphere, nice outdoor seating. The schnitzel and cheese board were honestly OKAY but the Currywurst was surprisingly good. They have a seasonal shrub soda, many beers, and many other cool drinks. Would certainly go again, especially when the bakery is open.
