“this was my first time coming to the chapel hill location & i was pleased. environment was nice, relaxing & clean. very fast & accurate service. nick was my server & he was very nice & patient with my indecisiveness lol. i came jus in time to try their new shrimp n grits on the menu; which was very good! id give it a 8/10 ; the onions kinda had a weird taste to me, but nothing overpowering.“
“What a wonderful place to visit! It's extremely easy to book a reservation online for your group. While you're not allowed to pick up the cats there are plenty of toys available to play with them. Their names and pictures are posted on the upper floor and whether or not they are pending adoption. I booked an hour for my group and it was great.“
“Probably the loveliest of lovely places to hang out in all of the triangle; one of the few outdoor hangouts left after Honeysuckle closed! Conveniently nestled between E Franklin St and the trees off the Bolin Creek trail, this is just the perfect location with the perfect amount of shade and nature vibes - perfect place to read a book, catch up with a friend, have a first date, or get some work done in calming environs- highly popular for this reason. In the winter they have blankets and heaters, and during the summer they have bug spray out and the shade helps buffer the heat - be aware there will be plenty of bugs/critters, but it goes with the lovely outdoor NC experience! The internet has gotten much better over the years and you can definitely access the WiFi now without issues (was not the case a few years ago). There are only maybe 1-2 plugs on the premises, though best to charge up before you come. Drinks are delicious with plenty of coffee, tea, non-caf options - my favorites are the brown sugar oat latte and the ginger beer cold brew. Service is good with sweet and helpful baristas - there is always a line here but it goes decently quickly. The only thing I wish I could change would be longer hours so you could spend even more time here early AM - later afternoon/evening!“
“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.“

“The food and service is great! They had several very delicious vegetarian options available. The owner was friendly and the food was ready quite fast.It was a nice place to set up and work on my laptop for awhile. There is free Wi-Fi available.“
“Great spot for grad students to grab a quick sip before class. I really love the vegan food items - they don't heat them up for you, but there is a microwave in the cafe for you to do that yourself. My favorite part is that that they don't charge extra for alternative milks!! Seating is sparse since it's a small cafe, but I like to grab my coffee and find a spot in the health sciences library to enjoy my cup.“
“Ran out of BOBA. A dirty tiger W/o boba is gross. They have a long booth of seats so you are sitting right beside people at the next table. No privacy.Parking: Street very busy. May need several loops to get a parking place, that you must pay for.“
“Matcha and lattes are quite watery. Fills up real tight on weekends. Book selection is very social-justice oriented, hard to find science, business or modern psych books. Even bestselling fiction books like "Lessons in Chemistry" don't make their shelves. Churos were stale last time I had them.“
“Nice strong' ☕️ in a real ceramic cup. Great library lgbtqi++, people of color, etc. Educational materials to help teach children about white oppression. Me being an old Caucasian male, got the eye from the occupants. Still I escaped with no resistance ;).Parking: Parking is difficult anywhere in Chapel Hill. Electric scooters preferred,,.“
“I got a snack size smoothie bowl and it was delicious! Love that they have options for sizes. Food is on the pricier side but pretty typical prices for this type of food. Would definitely go back.Vegetarian options: Plenty of vegetarian options!Dietary restrictions: They have vegan options!“
