He answered every question my husband throw at him and we loved hearing his process on how he makes his tea! The Tea is AMAZING! It will ruin sweet tea because it is that good! His lemonade is equally amazing! We will be adding this place to our snack stop list!“

“A great local coffee shop with both classic and creative drinks. The staff were super friendly to answer my questions. The Turkish coffee sounded good, but I ended up ordering a baklava latte, which was excellent. Just enough sweetness with great flavor and small bits of pistachio. The space is inviting to stay for a bit. I’ll definitely be back!“

“I just got back from Asia for two months so paying five dollars for a cup of coffee to me is absolutely ridiculous.

But the place is fine. The people are nice. It’s just jaded coming back to the states. After experiencing Vietnam/Japan, it’s all downhill…“

“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 venue was amazing. I got married here last week and it was beautiful and all the staff was attentive and helpful. Honeysuckle also has their own bar service which we used. They offered several drink options, which most being locally sourced. We also used their catering service and all of the food was exactly what we wanted. Even with some special requests they were so accommodating. They decorated our arch with beautiful greenery and flowers the day of the ceremony and it turned out gorgeous. The only minor issue would be the bridal yurt was very hot and even with the AC it was quite miserable for the whole bridal party, including the makeup and hair artists. But a minor compliant for the space and service we received from all of the Honeysuckle Tea house team. Thank you Sandy!“

“I'm a lover of crepes and smoothies so I love this place. If you have a sweet tooth, a Nutella crepe with banana and/or strawberry is the way to go! for more of a savory dish, the chicken pesto crepe is my favorite. I also love the smoothies- all 3 flavors are delicious!“

“The food is ample reason to frequent Saladelia. But now that their new location is so beautifully landscaped there is even more reason to frequent Saladelia. Not only is the outside dining area bordered by planters with a variety of lovely, interesting plants but the area adjacent to the parking lot is also attractively landscaped. Thank you Saladelia for providing your customers with such delightful surroundings! Susan June24, 2023“

“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.“

“That have a great deal of food“

“Twinnie’s has quickly become one of my favorite eateries at Duke! I come here at least once a week and it is always a pleasure to see the team. Special shout out to Jack who never fails to make my day! He is so kind, fun to chat with, and full of great recommendations. The food is top notch (cafe style entrées and drinks); seriously everything here is delicious. I’d recommend trying the daily specials or the classic Chicken Pita. Also, the seasonal pumpkin latte is back! I just drank it for the first time today and it won’t be my last. Check out Twinnie’s for good food and good vibes :)“

“I had lunch on February 16 at Southpoint. That’s my location for 10 years. I have always gotten good service and food. On yesterday the food was not great. The pizza was over cooked and the bread pudding was burnt on top. I didn’t want to ask to do it over because I didn’t want and ( i will fix her attitude as I have heard formal cooks talk about.“

“Really enjoyed the experience! Thank you for the excellent service. 🙂“
