10 Best Coffee Shops near Hillsborough

“This is the best coffee shop for miles around. Literally, if you're driving down the 85 anytime between Richmond and Atlanta, you should make the time and effort to go have coffee here.“

“Boy was I surprised when I stopped here for breakfast just because it was convenient and got a near PERFECT sausage and egg McMuffin. Way too many McD restaurants fail to toast the muffin, but they made it awesome at this location. I was o pleased that I went back a week later, just to see if my first experience was a fluke. It wasn't. Delightful. Definitely not the newest McDs, but they sure do it right!“

“I’ve been ordering whole bean coffee from Joe van gough for awhile and love trying the newer blends and specialty coffees, it’s what we get up for! So fresh!“

“We were married at the Teahouse in early November and could not have asked for a better night. We've loved the Teahouse since before they became an established wedding venue, so we knew it would be the perfect spot for us to celebrate.

They've been making a lot of gorgeous changes & updates to the property that really make it special! The grounds are full of spots for gorgeous photos, and the indoor/outdoor spaces are perfect for the flow of guests dancing, mingling, drinking and eating throughout the night.

Sandy, the venue's do-it-all person, was extremely helpful, informative, laid back and put together from the start. I believe it was Sandy who designed the custom cocktails we chose for the wedding - both used teas from the Teahouse and were so delicious. We got a ton of compliments from our guests on both the food (tortellini! so good!) and drinks. Thanks again Svetlana, Sandy, and team for all of your help making our special celebration magical.“

“We felt so welcomed here — it truly felt like home! The staff were incredibly friendly and went above and beyond to make us comfortable. They even made me a Vietnamese coffee with dairy-free condensed milk, something I’ve never had before, and it was amazing. We also loved how they took the time to chat with us and recommend other spots nearby with dishes similar to what we enjoy in Vancouver. Such a thoughtful and authentic experience — we’ll definitely be back!“

“The Sweet Tea Cafe is truly one of a kind.

The guy who runs it is awesome - genuinely super cool, and passionate about what he does. And the tea? Hands down the best I’ve ever had.

If you’re looking for somewhere unique with great vibes to take someone in Durham, this is absolutely the place - especially when the weather is beautiful and you can just hang out and relax.

My boyfriend and I jokingly call it the “forbidden” tea shop because it always seems to be open on days I’m working 😂 but whenever I get a day off, it feels like a little treat.

Can’t recommend it enough!“

“AMAZING FOOD!!!! My family loved it there and it’s also so beautiful!! Highly recommend“

“Great low sugar coffee ever.“

“So far, I recommend the French toast donut and the maple bacon donut.“

“Great service and coffee. Would definitely recommend it anyone!!!“
