Lovely, friendly spot for breakfast, coffee, lunch, and the like. We had great breakfasts, including an all-star egg, cheese, bacon, and tomato biscuit. The coffee you serve yourself in homey mugs, and the cheerful staff bring you your order to the table with a number or sign. Efficient, clean operation with bright sunny windows and tucked into a nice spot. Local wall decorations and a peaceful, relaxing vibe. Observed many happy families, friends, and customers chatting.

The best way to describe this place is to use their own words. They are eclectic. That is, they offer a wide variety of tasty foods derived from a broad and diverse range of sources. Add to this that most of their dishes and desserts are homemade. If you are here for breakfast I suggest the double egg biscuit. I do not think that is on the menu but ask them and they will make it for you. I also highly recommend the hummus and roasted peppers. They have a catchy name for it but I can't recall it right now. To sum it up Nosh serves up fresh delish eclectic food with great service at a reasonable price.

Good food, great ambiance

Each Nosh is unique and has some of the best food in the state! Try Ronnie's gravy if you get a chance!

This restaurant closing could not have happened to a better owner. I'm sure she's blaming everyone but herself, even now. Every bad review was true, and every time she replied she blamed someone else. Marge was downright abusive to her staff, and she refused to listen to anyone's input but her own. Staff was constantly told "if you don't like it this way you can leave" and acted shocked and surprised when staff left. She was nice to your face, and an absolute snake behind your back. There wasn't one shift where she didn't talk s*** about her employees behind their back. Her and the other owner would yell at each other during dinner shifts in front of customers. Bickering back and forth because neither of them knew what the hell they were doing. Yet, an absolute control freak with no grip on reality. Good riddance.

Hard to find place, even using Google Maps. However, once found a delightful dining experience. Came for breakfast at about 11 a.m., ordered from the menus on the wall, paid at the cash register, and then went to find a seat. Breakfast was delivered, but then realized I had to go pick out my own silverware and napkins. I had biscuits and sausage gravy with some quartered fried or roasted potatoes on the side. It was very good. Ate the whole thing. My friend had a traditional breakfast, scrambled eggs sausage potatoes. He seemed to like it too. We stayed about an hour after breakfast talking to each other, I think because the setting was just perfect for that kind of activity. I'd go there again.

I got the the "Duke Slammer" which consisted of a HUGE pancake, FRESH turkey sausage (or bacon or regular sausage if you choose), eggs, and you can choose from cheesy grits, fresh fruit, or curry potatoes. I got the curry potatoes, in my opinion they weren't that great. Traded them out for fresh fruit, which was amazing and truly fresh

Nosh is one of those places that warms my heart just to think about it. The food isn't just good -- it's sincere. The atmosphere is always welcoming.

We visited Nosh for the first time today because we happened to be in Durham and we were recommended by another local business.

Delicious!!! The biscuits are huge and fluffy The scrambled eggs were just right especially with added cheese. The bacon and especially the sausage were perfect.
My food was good and I really enjoyed the atmosphere. There are games and books if you want to use them and the bathroom was clean. When it's crowded it can get a little loud but nothing too crazy. The service was quick and good.

Tamale Factory has closed for good. Too bad, it had some wonderful and uncommon dishes.

A potentially great experience soured by being understaffed and poorly managed. The poor woman working by herself had to manage all the orders by herself and deal with the constantly malfunctioning draft lines. If I were the owner I'd pay for more help to have this place run properly.

Went for a few drinks this weekend. Had fun talking to the bartender and the staff. Will go back soon to try the food.

Wow! Tamale Factory serves superb, fresh Mexican food, all made from scratch, including the crema and fresh condiments. They have great beer on tap and my margarita was delicious, refreshing and expertly prepared.
