“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Consistently Amazing at RISE!

RISE has become one of our go-to spots—and for good reason. Whether it’s breakfast, lunch, or dessert, the food is always fresh, flavorful, and satisfying. The biscuits are unmatched, the sandwiches hit every time, and the desserts are the perfect sweet finish. The staff is friendly, the service is quick, and the vibe is always welcoming.

It’s a place we keep coming back to—and it never disappoints.“

“We really like the consistency of the quality across the duck donuts franchises. The donuts here are just as good as the original location in Duck, NC. Our favorite topping is by far the raspberry drizzle, it is fantastic! This location was clean and the employees were friendly.“
