Stopped by Cultivate Coffee Roasters on a realtor tour of some houses in the Fuquay-Varina area and…read moreneeded some coffee. When you arrive parking can be found either on the street or in a nearby parking lot. There was a pretty long line wrapping around the coffee shop so we hopped in line. When we were at the coffee shop there doesn't seem to be enough seating for how much traffic is going through the shop as the inside and outside seating were pretty full. Unfortunately the atmosphere was a bit overshadowed by being overcrowded and several kids running around. The atmosphere inside the coffee shop feels like a modern vibe but nestled within a small town. I ordered a strawberry glazed donut and a vanilla latte. I wasn't the biggest fan of the donut as it didn't taste the freshest and the espresso shots weren't pulled correctly as the latte tasted a bit watery/thin. This coffee shop is crowded as it's really the only option in Fuqua-Varina but may try it again if I'm in the area again.

It's got a steampunk vibe with tables both inside and out. Good crowd on a weekday at 9:30am with people just stopping in for a coffee and muffin, having meetings, and enjoying a leisurely breakfast. I ordered the chicken biscuit and wow, it was phenomenal! Would have added the hot honey but was afraid of making a mess. My partner had the breakfast mugwich which he thoroughly enjoyed. Iced coffee and Chai rounded out our meal. Would definitely stop here again!

Overall Rating: 3.5 stars (if Yelp allowed)…read more Service/Ambiance (5 stars): Super friendly people. Love the exposed brick and the decor gives it a nice city vibe in this small town. Food (3 stars): We tried the sticky bun, cinnamon bun with icing and a cheese danish. The icing on the cinnamon roll was the best part. Both buns were more on the dry/bread-like side and I prefer a soft/gooey-middle bun. The cheese danish was our least favorite. I think all of the pastries would have been better warmed, so I would recommend taking your baked goods home and microwaving before eating. Coffee (2.5 stars): As recommended by another Yelper, get coffee at a nearby coffee shop. I had a hot vanilla latte (not good) and my husband had the crème brûlée latte (better, can't really taste the coffee).

"The Perch" is Playing a Different Game…read more The Perch is on the corner of the first floor of building 1000 Peterson Station, where I live. I popped in today and spent some time talking with the owner, Jacob. I quickly realized this is no ordinary coffee shop. In fact, there is nothing ordinary to be found here. VIBE: It has a warm industrial feel with open ceilings, exposed ductwork and concrete, balanced by dark wood, brick, rich teal accents, leather seating, greenery, and natural lighting. Unlike the cookie cutter coffee shops, I am used to, the generosity of space here gives me a sense of calm. MENU: Besides coffees, teas, you's and me's there is a dynamic menu. Check out the "Savor" food menu. If you want to tease your belly take a peek, Licorice and Pickle Spears? SWEETS: The regal cheesecakes sparked an interesting story from Jacob. They are custom-created by a business partner recruited by him. Jacob struck a great deal and here we are, one-of-a kind cheesecakes you will not find anywhere but The Perch. TEA: Not an after-thought. For refined tea lovers The Perch serves up "Art of the Tea" choices. See photos for the surprising selection. I'm going for the Blue Pineapple. COFFEE: Genius! The curated collection of coffee couture is a branded sipping surprise! Whether novice or connoisseur, customers will relish Cat & Cloud specialty coffees, Vim & Vigor coffee bags, plus chic and useful Chemex pour-over equipment! I thought I knew something about coffee, but looks like I have much to learn! The Perch is proud to feature "CRUDE" organic Bitters and Sodas, made in our neighboring city, Raleigh. Small batch-crafted bitters and shrub syrup are intense concentrates of botanical flavorings. Adding just a dash or few drops adds complexity to coffees and other beverages. GAMES: The Perch is sure to draw a legion of fans to its Game Arena. Jacob personally designed this space for people to stay, play, and socialize. There is a sweet offering of classic board games and a huge curated library of modern table-top gaming including some light-my-fire RPG selections. Do you see a fave in the photos? Accessories galore! MEMBERSHIPS: Exclusive perks (get it?) as a member of the Game Arena begin October 1, 2026. I would give you a rundown here, but better! Get on over here and see for yourselves. Featured will be organized play, tournaments and grand prizes. Besides member meet-ups the gaming team will be showcasing game creators and playtests. You will find all this on the "Stay" menu. The secret's out! Speed puzzling competitions are soon to come! Nimble brains and speedy fingers ready, set, go! As I said at the beginning, there is nothing ordinary The Perch!
