Nice location with nice atmosphere
Great teas and coffees. Great customer service. Great safety precautions
Love this place, great coffee. BUT the pricing makes no sense. 8 oz cappuccino with 2 shots: $4.50. 6 oz cappuccino with one shot (why?): $3.75. If you want to add the 2nd shot back in (are they actually only pulling one shot?? Or pulling 2 and throwing 1 away?), it costs $1.50, which is more than the 8oz capp that has more milk in it. What? But if you switch to a cortado (6 oz? 4 oz? Not sure), it's $4.50 - again, same as an 8 oz capp that has more milk in it.

Open Eye Cafe is a great local coffee shop in the heart of Carrboro, serving tasty coffee and offering a cozy interior with plenty of seating options, including more indoor seating than any other place in the area. The staff is friendly and remembers regular customers' names, contributing to a welcoming atmosphere. The coffee menu features rich and smooth espresso, classic brewed options from local roasters, and their mochas are to die for! Accompanying their coffee, they offer baked goods from Ninth Street Bakery.
The cafe caters to dietary restrictions with soy, almond, and oat milk options, though the pricing for these may raise some questions. With a cute patio in the back and shaded seating in the front, Open Eye Cafe is a must-visit for coffee lovers. It also provides free wifi, super clean bathrooms, and a free parking lot right behind it. With its solid roasts, including a fruity and complex cold brew, this place has a vibe that keeps customers coming back, making it a favorite spot for studying and relaxation.
