A place to enjoy specialty coffee. Omies shines brightest in their top quality, roasted on-site coffee. They serve it in a classic modern specialty coffee atmosphere: clean, minimalist, sufficient seating, play space for small children. Creative (delicious) seasonal craft drinks. Also offer a small selection of pastries.

So glad to have stopped when traveling through Durham. Welcomed with a warm smile, lovely conversation and coffee. Can’t wait to try the coffee beans I bought while on vacation!

Omie's is a very cute coffee shop in a renovated garage. The interior is well designed with plenty of seating including some seats facing out the front windows. Staff was quick and friendly as well. The espresso of my cappuccino was good, but the milk wasn't really frothed right so it felt more like I was having a small latte. All in all, I'd come here again, but I wasn't blown away.

The coffee here is, of course, very good. But I really appreciate how friendly the entire staff is (and how they obsessively dial in the espresso) and the environment that creates. They did a great job subdividing the spaces to give people a place to work without disrupting the social environment of the other spaces.
It's just a well-thought-out and well-designed space with great drinks and a nice lil' selection of stuff to eat. Bonus points for having the roaster in space where you can watch!

The best coffee we've had in Durham. My husband and I really enjoy good coffee and typically are int he hunt for a good third wave coffee shop. Not only was their coffee flavorful but their latte's were as well. At the time they were making an excellent home made pumpkin syrup which if I remember correctly had browned butter within it. So so good. Addison, the owner, kindly welcomed us into her shop at the counter and calmly served us our drinks and treats. Not only do they make their drinks with skill, but they roast their own beans and have produces incredible flavor profiles. We purchased some bags of beans and it was well worth the price, even to the point that we have considered having them shipped to us.I also really appreciated that they used so many compostable produces and clearly had a focus on reducing waste. Thank you Omie's.
We have multiple kids and they have created a wonderful space for kids and parents to hang out, which was such a relief and help. I plan to go every time we are back in Durham and hope you give this place a try, it's well worth your time and money. They also have great spaces to sit and work or chat with a friend.
This place is a gem of the city that I hope you find.

This place is a gem. It’s cozy and doesn’t give that over-produced and redundant feeling that every coffee shop seems to have these days. Best of all, the staff was amazing. Maddie was a great barista and super friendly, and Olivia (go bruins!) was roasting beans and made time to chat it up as well. Thanks guys, love this spot already!
Oh and the coffee hit the spot!

Cute little coffee shop in a refurbished garage. The coffee was really smooth and had great taste. They had some fun seasonal drink options to choose from & the girl working was extremely nice and welcoming. Plenty of room to work or sit & relax. Overall a great addition to the coffee community!

New addition to the area, and it hasn’t disappointed yet! Unique space in a converted auto garage, but the facelift is well done with comfy and quirky furniture. One of the better chai lattes I’ve had! Light and tasty with just a hint of sweet (you can add simple syrup if you want to).
