As a coffee aficionado, this place has it together. Inviting, full of energy, amazing mini donuts and polite staff . I may make this 20 minute drive more often. TIP: Try the mini donuts ????

This is the greatest little coffee house in Raleigh, NC!! The seasonal cinnamon plum hot cider is incredible...and don't forget to pick up at least half a dozen of the hot mini donuts !!!

Southwestern chicken sandwich , Sola BLT (sandwiches come with a side: go for the arugula salad ); mini-donuts – rolled in cinnamon and sugar, served warm – are an absolute must. Read more

Gluten free items !!! Top find any coffee shop that can also feed me is difficult. To find one with great traditional espresso and yummy gluten free food is priceless!!

My first time in...Looks like a winner. Not too loud , the owner is very friendly , lots of room, coffee is great and it is right around the corner from me. I plan on being here often.

Other than the fact that they seem to ALWAYS be out of chai , I really like it. Super cute , staff is super friendly , and they often have live music .

The peanut butter banana toast was amazing, but the iced caramel latte was just alright. It didn't really taste like caramel and they don't offer almond milk ????
