My favorite coffee shop in Durham. Cafe Latte outstanding. Staff always very nice and helpful. Great vibe and good background music which is not too loud. I am glad about the no dog policy. The only suggestion I have for the fabulous owners is to bring back the comfortable leather seats in the middle. Table which is now there doesn’t seem to fit more people. If someone takes the middle seat nobody will join the table usually, since not enough intimate space. Also seems like anyone sitting there is on a pedestal and seats are not very comfortable. I recommend to add some cushions on the bench. That would be wonderful 💜

Not the best coffee or the nicest people, on the expensive side too but the atmosphere is kinda cool. 3 stars because I don’t want to be rude

This cafe is adorable and the coffee was amazing. The staff were very friendly and quick! We got the log cabin shaken espresso and a nitro cold brew. Both were phenomenal!

Chill music, woodsy vibe, inclusive feel, top notch juice they modified to my needs (less sweet), and they even ASKED if I wanted my matcha sweetened (I sure don’t), compostable straws, strong arm croissants (so tempting), local nut butters and whatnot, and “for here” cups for an earth-first mission. They are rocking it! Just recommend eco lightbulbs since some of the ones I saw seemed to be the other kind. Wish they were on 9th street too!

Really enjoyed my chai tea latte! They close fairly late, so it's a chill place to work if you're in downtown past 5. Staff are friendly.

I just love coming to this café! The fresh juices are all phenomenal and can be customized. The lemon avocado toast is gorgeous and delicious. Tea and coffee drinks are divine and have multiple non-dairy milk options. I can't believe I haven't tried a smoothie from here yet. The staff are all lovely. There's free parking beside the building, a rarity in downtown Durham. Can't recommend this place enough for a cozy sit-down for a drink and a snack.

Chill atmosphere. Really good coffee drinks and food. And next to/part of Yonderlust Outfitters with lots of great outdoor gear. Grab a drink and some food and get geared up for your next adventure!
