“Such a cute coffee shop on Franklin Street! There's a lot of space inside to do work or chat with friends. I got a lavender iced latte, which I thought tasted great. It's also the same price for any size drink! The barista was also very nice and helped me pick out coffee beans.“

“Cafe McColl is a delightful, business casual dining establishment where friends are family and family means olive garden. Tourists and locals alike flock to Cafe McColl, or "La Comida Grande", in search of coffee, food, or maybe just a smiling face. There are many options to choose from - Cafe McColl offers an international pantheon of exquisite and fairly priced meals for even the most discerning of palettes. Might this reviewer suggest the daringly authentic 'Kung Pao Chicken' or the whimsical and exotic "Cheese Quesadilla". If these sound intimidating to the reader, the cafe also offers bagels, a salad bar, and their lunch-time special, claustrophobia.“

“This is a small branch of Saladelia in Marsico Hall on campus at UNC. They bring in food early in the morning with some hot and cold food choices such as breakfast sandwiches, soup, salads and grab and go items as well as coffee and bottled drinks. Clearly not as nice as the main cafe in Durham, but a nice choice to have for some variation from campus dining.“

“Came in right when they opened. Place was cleaned, lady was nice, available items are ok if you’re just looking for something to eat and not spend too much at the local food truck or going out. They have cold sandwiches as well as some hot items. Deserts, snacks, drinks, salads, etc. I purchased at the food truck before coming in here to eat, and should have came in here first. So, try for yourself first before going off someone else’s experience reviews. Specially when they’re negative comments.“

“I recently photographed a wedding at The Honeysuckle Tea House, and while the rain kept me from exploring the grounds as much as I’d have liked, it’s clear this is a unique and charming venue. The rustic, cozy atmosphere inside made for a warm and inviting setting despite the weather, and the surrounding greenery added a beautiful, natural backdrop. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout the event, which made the day run smoothly. I can only imagine how lovely the outdoor areas must be on a clear day—definitely a venue worth considering for anyone wanting a scenic, laid-back space with great hospitality.“

“Amber was awesome to us and the food was perfect!“

“Excellent, historic restaurant with 102 years of satisfied customers. Convenient location at 138 Franklin Street. Wide selection of foodstuffs for breakfast, lunch or early dinner.

Parking: Limited, paid street parking along a busy, main street adjacent to a popular college campus.“

“Relaxing music and free WiFi. British breakfast is my favorite among their hot teas. I had the egg white Avocado and Spinach. Was able to switch the bagel for wheat bread, which made it good for my diet. Thank you Panrera for an diet friendly and enjoyable item.“
