Whisk & Rye
Phone: (919) 559–2752
When Andy needed a break from his hectic schedule in the medical field, the idea of serving the community Shelby’s pastries with coffee led the couple to purchase a trailer and start Whisk & Rye. Their rotating menu brings fresh ideas daily, with memorable staples like cinnamon rolls, vegan chocolate croissants, gluten-free ginger cookies and, of course, coffee.

Whisk & Rye has great coffee and lots of vegan pastry options to choose from. Their chocolate croissant is my favorite! Seating is limited but there is a covered outdoor area that we ended up sitting at on a busy Saturday. There is a small parking lot out front where parking is free as well. I can’t wait to come back and try the cinnamon roll! -
Top tier experience every time I visit. The carrot cake latte is DELICIOUS! Try it iced. The croissants are huge and the customer service is excellent. Very community-centric spot with great coffee that is roasted in-house -
Fresh made pastries every day. Best banana bread I've ever had. The sea salt on top with the chocolate bits in it, I could eat so much of🤭 I had take out the first time and dined in the second time. Both were amazing experiences and the shop is cute, clean and friendly. Oh I almost forgot to mention the croissants!
We had a ham and cheese croissant that was so fresh and puffy and just scrumptious. Thank you for serving such yummy food with a smile. We will be back soon! ❤️ -
Cute spot with some solid pastry options and good coffee. I’ve never had a croissant with cream cheese in it but the everything croissant was a win! Will return to try some other items. -
I stumble across this shop mid-Saturday. I was greeted by the most pleasant clerk that I’ve seen in awhile. He maintained a smile and patience while I made up my mind. I think coming earlier will present more options. I chose a cinnamon bun that was tough and dry on the outer ring. But the inside was softer. It was really big and a good value. I ate half there and ate the rest later. It was then that I discovered that it taste better warmed up. There is limited seating inside;however there is cozy, quiet seating outside—perfect for relaxing or reading a book.
