Who ever was working 4/21 had nice e every. They accommodated my weird and illogical request of cold foam on a hot drink. They are very kind and the vibe of the location is perfect

Dog friendly indoor and outdoor space! Fast and friendly service. Gold milk latte was the #1 drink on my trip. 10/10 have to try this place.

I came in the other day and I'm a regular customer. I just came in to use my laptop and focus on paperwork. The minute I came in the short older Asian lady looked me down ans tried to guide me to the register. I sat down and started to work in my laptop. She kicked me out saying if I didn't buy anything no business. Honestly I think she is racist and I'll never coming back here again. When I come I always tip too despite the food and coffee being mediocre.

Boring, Bland, and Overpriced. The atmosphere is boring the food is overpriced and that older Asian lady is rude as hell. Do yourself a favor and go to Sir Walter Coffee down the street

Nice coffee shop right next to the park. There was a vegan festival going on at the time so we could grab. Coffee and walk through. Coffee was on the acidic side.

So good that we stopped twice in 3 days while in town. Enjoyed a black coffee, gingerbread latte and a cinnamon roll. All of it was excellent and the staff was very friendly.

Visited 42 & Lawrence twice while traveling through Raleigh. The coffee was fantastic, environment clean, and staff incredibly welcoming and friendly. Get a cinnamon roll!

I come to this place every time I have an early shift at work and need a pick me up. They always get my order right, they know that I love sweet things, and if I could, I could stay here all day to work on my book. Everyone is super friendly and even the dogs that come in are treated like customers. The manager is also pretty nice and makes sure her customers are taken care of and protected, because you never what can happen downtown.

The place is all aesthetics. I experienced anti blackness from the Asian manager I think that's her title. Anyway, I've been all over the world and have been treated better than I was at this establishment. Trash.

This is my go-to coffee shop in the downtown area. I’ve found that I can count on them to be open when other coffee shops aren’t (e.g. super early in the am, New Year’s Day, etc.). The woman who I assume is the manager/owner is very friendly and always ensures that my experience is top tier. She offers me a pup cup when I bring my doggies around and she is welcoming and warm.The coffee I’ve tried is delicious, I typically get oat-milk lattes flavored with lavender or just breve lattes and the drinks are always scrumptious and hit the spot. Highly recommend.
