The hand-poured coffees are amazing. But you truly can't go wrong with anything you order. Their teas , lattes and sipping chocolates are great, too! I love taking my girlfriend!

Baron Mojohito

This place sets the bar for coffee houses world-wide, but what really stands out are the raw cacao drinks. Not to be missed in Durham!

The News & Observer

Try the Al Mokha: a semisweet spin on the standard, thanks to its real melted dark chocolate and Sri Lankan cinnamon topping, the latter a nod to the port as a trade stop in the spice trade route. Read more

AMAZING creative and high-quality coffee drinks. Great selection of pastries , vegan/vegetarian quick food options, and fabulous service.

Kaie S.

Wonderful, chill , trendy atmosphere. Low-key and cozy . Drinks are the best I've had in Durham. The sipping dark chocolate is especially good!

Carlos Russo

Great local shop to enjoy warm beverages. Might be difficult to find a seat, but when possible, it's great to relax and get work done.

Kaitlin

Oh my worddddd. This place is so good! And the drinks are wildly inventive. If you're looking for a daring latte , this is the place to be.

C H

Different coffee options than your normal coffee house , which was nice. Cool atmosphere. Waited about ten minutes in line though, so it's not a quick grab-and-go stop.

Jeff Bowen

Cool space. Above average, but not amazing coffee . Soft seating, outlets, and Wi-Fi. Been very crowded every time I’ve been here. Be prepared to share a table with a stranger.

Janette H

Great vibe and interesting globally inspired drink menu. It’s my favorite cocoa cinnamon location

AJ T.

This place is a little too "hip " for me... Many coffee/espresso type choices, and also wines ! But not an impressive selection of sweets/desserts (which was what I was looking for).

Chloe Benjamin

They have parking , and the best latte I've had on the entire East Coast. Good place to bring the dog for outdoor seating too.

Shawn Cook

Cool, hip coffee shop . I ordered the Dr. Durham . It was awesome.

Grace S

Confession: I HATE coffee , but this coffee is delicious. Try the Dr. Durham specialty drink !

I love this place. Lots of character, great baristas, and interesting people.

I found my favorite barista from (another coffee shop ). She was the only one who was actually friendly .

Frank Overton

Everything!! The staff and what they make are wonderful!!

Carrie Nation

Hot chocolate or drinking chocolate on a cool night, sitting outside... It's pretty much heaven.

Pam ☕️ O

The "milkadamia" milk is much tastier than any almond milk you'll have elsewhere!

Marissa B.

Must try the latte inspired by Nina Simone sweetened with molasses. It's wonderful, tasty, & creative!

Sarah

Great iced coffee , and they have coconut milk !

Gail Rankin

My husband says this was the best caramel latte he's ever had - not too sweet!

Caoba hot chocolate is thick and creamy. Perfect hot chocolate .

Get here early to get a seat! Packed on a chilly Sunday

Great espresso . Finally, a place that handles it right.

John Oxaal

Single cup drip coffee , run crack, and a seat on one of the couches !

Kallari hot chocolate is incredible. Best I've ever had.

Trendy coffee shop !!

Spencer Ziegler

The Moroccan Mint Tea is incredibly refreshing on a nice, hot day.

Jonno Schmidt

Fantastic Cappuccino ! Drinking chocolate is like liquid heaven.

Dan

It's a nice local coffee shop but it's always crowded with people on laptops and it over priced for what you get.

Alaric Hahn

Careful of the dude who cuts in line wearing pajama pants. He's crafty...and sweaty.

Matt Bernstein

The Middle East cold brew was something special. Drink it black.

Brittany Best

Best hot chocolate I've ever had. Hands down.

Dan

I like the idea of this place than I actually like it in actuality. Overpriced, slow and never really had a stellar drink there. Too many bum students on laptops.

Whitney May

Best Americano in all the land. Dark like molasses.

Nation Hahn

The See-Line Woman is an absurdly good latte . Try it immediately.
