Great local coffee shop where most of the business wheeling and dealing happens workday mornings . Great coffee, knowledgeable baristas, and a solid selection of breakfast and lunch snacks . My only ding against it is the early closing hours during the week and kind of odd weekend hours. But, still five stars since it's hard to fault them not being open *every* time I want coffee.

Hillsborough's fantastic local coffee shop. A great atmosphere and friendly employees. Their rice crispy treats and pastries are worth it.
They generally offer three rotating specials every couple of months. The flavors sometimes lean towards being more experimental or niche. I applaud and encourage them to continue as they are fun, and it's exciting to see what is next along with the accompanying art work.
Which brings me to the only gripe I have to keep this from being five stars. The rotating specials are not always what my partner or I want/enjoy. I think it would be great if they offered a few standard specials that were always available for when the rotating ones do not appeal to a customer.
They do have a list of their syrups you can ask the cashier for, but figuring out your own flavor combination while the cashier and the line behind you waits is a little much- at least for me.
This coffee was shop warm, welcoming, and delicious. We had the vegan chocolate chip cookies which were SO good! We had a slight issue with our order, and the staff handled it kindly and generously. They have fun gifts and a seasonal display, overall such a lovely experience. There’s street parking and a lot about 5 minutes away, and plenty of tables to sit at.

This tiny place truly “rocks.” Fast, efficient, accurate service, always with a smile and sweet spirit. There may be a line but I promise it will disappear before your eyes. The greatest chocolate chip salt cookie imaginable, and quite the scrumptious

Wasn’t sure what to expect but as I saw that the pumpkin menu was out I knew. I’m not a breakfast sandwich kind of girl BUT I HAVE CHANGED. Genuinely amazing food and drinks. This is amazing!!

this was my first & last experience w this coffee shop. it was not a good experience from the moment i walked in the door. the employees were cleaning up given that i came in an hour & half before they closed. they took a min to take my order & made it seem as if i was interrupting them. the coffee was horrible it tasted like burnt coffee beans w that weird syrup feel in the coffee. Super disappointed i just moved to the area & was looking forward to having a homey local coffee shop but this is not homey at all it was a cold standoffish local coffee shop.

Coffee is great but seating is limited.
Yall are going to get a laugh, BUT it was our first time searching for a coffee shop in Hillsborough, and we ended up at the actual facility where they process the coffee beans that Cup-A-Joe sells 😅. The ladies at both places were awesome!! Everyone, myself, hubby, and daughter all enjoyed our coffee/tea, and we all ordered something different. We will definitely go back if we're in that area again!
