We are in town visiting and love to visit fun, local coffee shops. Nikki was so fun and brought the heat with our drinks! Thanks for a great experience!

I always stop in here when I'm downtown. Sidewalk chalk is available for you to leave a message or doodle. Open late night.

In Fayetteville on business and stopped in for a quick coffee before work ... so good! Quick hot whole milk latte and a piece of Gluten Free pumpkin bread. I was not disappointed. Cute small town dinner/drug store vibe. I was happy I stopped in and got me a pick me up before starting my day. You should not hesitate to give this place a try.

Starting off walking into the place was very difficult, me and my wife were standing in line for almost half an hour just to have ICE COFFEE served in a PAPER CUP. I originally asked for an ice caramel macchiato, HOWEVER the barista made a smart remark saying “we don’t do that we are not Starbucks”. She charged us for a simple cup of ice. Don’t waste your money here, you’re better off spending the extra buck and going to Starbucks.

This was such a cute place. The vibes were amazing and the drinks are even better. I got the addictive Nikki and it really was addicting!! If you are nearby you must try this place. I sat and did homework in the outside courtyard and it was the best:)

I love this place, but when it gets really crowded, I’d avoid it. The shop is just too small to have 40 ppl crammed in there. The food is awesome, and they really put a lot of care & effort into the coffee. But, they usually run out of the things I want ? at least I guarantee it’s fresh produce though, they run out of things because they don’t freeze it & make you eat premade food.

Very nice staff and extremely friendly. I visited with my Son. The Cappuccino is excellent! We did not order Food just Coffee and Cappuccino and it was well worth it! Also a great Variety of Vegan Chocolate bars.

Vegetarian options: 100% vegan Chocolate bars.

Ladies and Gentlemen, THIS place is a whole vibe you do NOT want to miss. It's right next to the Cameo theater, and if you blink, you'll miss it.

The inside is small, but the people are friendly. And the service is spot on. I had a coffee freeze while lounging in the outside area in the back. Yes, in back people. They have seating outside in front, but what you want is through the back door.

It's like being transported to another world but I won't spoil it with pictures. You'll have to check them out for yourself.

Maybe I'll see you there. ??

Hands down the best coffee spot in Fayetteville. Not just coffee but a whole experience. I love to sit on the back patio with a latte and a book and just enjoy the ~ambeyonce~ and art. There is plenty of cool stuff to shop around from local coffee beans to quirky gifts. Great bagged lunch and pastry options, and prices are reasonable. Most of the staff has been there for as long as I can remember, leading me to believe it's a place people actually enjoy working at. They have a points reward system so sometimes I get surprised with a free drink, which never fails to make me smile. Everyone is always friendly and the place is absolutely a Fayetteville iconic landmark and social hub.

My absolute favorite coffee shop! My family & myself enjoy all kinds of goodies from here. We typically have a coffee at least a few times a week here. The best coffee hands down. If coffee isn't your thing, they have many other beverages that you can enjoy ?
We love to take our dog with us and sit outside and enjoy the sights and sounds of downtown Fayetteville. We drive about 20 minutes to come and enjoy our favorite brews and delicious (baked in-house) pastries! It's absolutely worth the drive. The employees are great and always give you the "glad u came" experience.
I could go on and on about the food, desserts and the ice cream.. it's all wonderful at Rude Awakening! Even our dog has snack options, as they have an assortment of dog treats!
This will always be our family's go-to place for a great coffee, dessert, and experience!
