UPDATED RESPONSE: The food here was excellent — great quality and outstanding flavor. The restaurant was very clean, which I really appreciated. They didn’t have bottled water, (update: they had filtered water better than bottled for free!) and the person taking our order wasn’t very friendly or welcoming (maybe he was having a bad day it’s hard to tip a cashier who isn’t friendly). However, the overall experience was still very positive. The food and cleanliness definitely make this a restaurant worth it!

One of my favorite restaurants in Raleigh. The every day menu is good enough for this to one of the better restaurants, but the rotating specials are where its at. We started almost exclusively ordering the specials when we go and the only disappointment has been when they are removed from the menu.
Its disappointing that the restaurant that makes the best French Toast, Chopped Cheese sandwich, Biscuits and Gravy and Buffalo Chicken Wrap that Ive personally had in Raleigh doesnt have those every time I come in.
I do not really come here for their baked sweets or coffee as those are only a little above average.
Their breads are really good too, but you owe ut to yourself to co.e and try one of their specials.

Their croissants are so crunchy and lots of layers, it is a must have item.

I ordered a Cuban sandwich. I took one bite and noticed the whole sandwich tasted like garlic. I opened up the sandwich and there was a whole clove of garlic and their menu doesn't even state that it comes with garlic. What upset me most is when I brought it to the attention of one of the male employees. I ask if the sandwich is supposed to have garlic in it because they should advertise in case people are allergic. He said he didn't know. I told him what it happened and he didn't care and I could not eat the rest of the sandwich because the whole thing reeked of garlic, and so did my mouth . I just don't like the way I was treated.

Nevermind. Stayed away for a couple weeks & they're back to their old tricks. Ordered the Big Breakfast(among 3 other things), paid extra for bacon & sausage, got no bacon. Also, didn't get the maple syrup for the hocakes. Ugh

Coffee, atmosphere, and pastries are all excellent but I’m not a fan of the menu changes over the years. Miss the collard greens and grits. Don’t like that bacon is default on the hash and is in almost everything else. I’m not even vegetarian but there’s nothing on the menu I can eat without substitutions now (pork allergy, GF). Also the $4 upcharge to sub a tiny side of home fries for the salad or chips feels absurd. Maybe y’all could improve margins by making bacon the add-on instead.

Excellent atmosphere, great tunes, lovely decorations and wonderful staff. My husband got the Cuban (look at that cheese pull!) and I got the Union Egg sandwich. I highly recommend the Chow Chow aioli as a substitute or on the side. We shared an order of fresh sourdough with sorghum butter and it was absolutely delightful, so crunchy. I especially loved the butter and had quite a bit to take home. I also highly recommend one of the sodas from a local NC company, Bingo-Bango. The strawberry lemonade was sweet, lightly tart and very refreshing. Great experience all around. I recommend coming as early in the day as possible to sample more of their delicious baked goods.

My favorite bakery in Raleigh. it’s the place I go for a reliable loaf of bread and coffee+biscuits for breakfast on weekends. They’ve never let me down and like many others have mentioned, the vibes are immaculate. I get the biscuit with a side of sausage and it’s simple and satisfying every time. Their drip coffee is also world-class.
