    The coffee was amazing! I ordered a hot cafe latte with almond milk and something about it just satisfied all the coffee flavor notes. The avacado toast with egg was a great paring to offset the hike that was just accomplished. Great spot!

    Super cute place with every board game imaginable! It has a very cozy vibe, with a lot of people on their laptops and a few people playing card games when I went. I was really excited to try the croiffle, though I ended up quite disappointed to discover that it was literally just a croissant warmed up in a waffle iron. Not sure what I expected, but I guess I thought it would be more of a freshly made waffle. Next time I will try the waffles instead. Anyway, service was fast and friendly! Menu looks great and I look forward to trying some other things next time.

    I love Meeples! Great staff and fantastic coffee/food options. What sets this apart is their board game passes. Very cheap to place games all day and hang out. I could imagine this being a super cute option for a day date.

    Cute place for coffee and a great space if you want to bring or rent board games. There's plenty of seating inside and out. I ordered a maple latte and it was delicious. I asked for light syrup and they accommodated my order. This was served in a nice mug. I would have preferred the coffee a little hotter and less costly ($7.00).

    Got a latte and a sandwich and both were good! Typically, breakfast sandwiches have scrambled eggs so I was a little surprised that their breakfast sandwich comes with boiled eggs, but it is indicated on the menu so I knew to expect it. They have a nice variety of board games available, and I think a board game Café is a brilliant concept!

    I didn't have the "full" Meeples experience as I got my order to go and didn't play any board games. The employee in the front who took our order and made drinks was super nice, and they have a decent number of items ranging from coffee to breakfast to flatbreads and more. However, the portion sizes were so small! It was a good thing I got a milkshake (s'mores) in addition to the Hana BLT sandwich because I would've been hungry. My friend got the avocado toast and that was even smaller. It looked like one piece of toast sliced in half. Order more than one thing.

    Bottom line: Cute little coffee shop in Morrisville with delicious coffee beverages and interesting eats to offer. There is a board game library that customers can "check out" games to play while there, which makes it unique around here. The Deets: I've seen Meeple's Brew pics and reviews for a while now, and finally got by to try out this local coffee shop/eatery/board game cafe. It is located down near the O2 Fitness location at Park Place shopping center in Morrisville. There is ample seating both outside and inside, with some tables inside large enough for small groups. It's nicely decorated and quaint with a hint of modern inside. Some electrical outlets are available at some seats/tables but not every one I found. Across from the ordering counter is a large shelf of board games that can be "checked out" for use (at the time of this writing there is a $5/day "Library Pass" advertised by poster). At the ordering counter, you can find the beverage and food menus as well as menus for board games to select as well. For both of my visits recently, I had their skim latte to drink and both were excellent. On my second visit, I decided to try out some items on their food menu. I started out with the cheesy scone, which the cashier did point out had a bit of seasoning to it...I am glad she did, as one bite I took had quite a kick to it! It was delicious although I could have done without the spiciness I encountered in that one bite. I also ordered their ham/egg/cheese sandwich called the Hammified but when I found out that the only way the eggs were served there, even on sandwiches, were hard-boiled then I decided to skip on the egg (hard-boiled eggs are really not my thing now). The resulting toasted ham and cheese sandwich was pretty tasty, even with no melt to the cheese it was not bad. I also saw at the next table over some pretty amazing looking waffle creations, if you like a lot of things on your waffles. Of note, the customer gets a beeper to let them know their order is ready, and honestly wished they had a silent/vibrate mode as it does break the mood of the cafe when one goes off loudly. However for the most part I like this little coffee shop/cafe in Morrisville and from the amount of customers I saw coming in each visit, looks like many feel the same way. Oh

    Always good coffee but this last visit the wait was way too long and I couldn't understand why as there was nobody ahead of us. Still a place I like to visit. Just happened to have to wait way too long at my last visit.

    I recently went to Meeples Brew to catch up with and old friend. It was the first time there for both of us, and we had the best time seeing each other, reminiscing, and sharing new ventures. Meeples really such a cozy and inviting space that brings that out and makes you want to stay longer. They had quite a bit of seating and large tables that are perfect for groups to gather to study or enjoy the large selection of games on the wall. I ordered the honey lavender latte with whipped cream. I'm not a coffee gal, but this was a nice light flavor that I think other non-coffee drinkers would appreciate. The service was super quick and our cashier was extremely friendly and helpful when we ordered.

    Daily deals!

    We stopped at Meeple's for breakfast after we arrived at Raleigh-Durham airport. We wanted something more local than a big chain. Coffee was tasty as well as the chai. The staff were friendly. The food was really tasty: smoothie, avocado toast, oatmeal and a waffle. Fresh and prepared to order. They have LOTS of games -- would be a great place for a game gathering! (We did not have time to play )

    One of the amazing places to hangout in RTP! My husband wanted to really try a fancy art coffee in the area and we ended up finding this gem. Since then I have gone back here a couple of times including when I wait for my AAA appointments, conveniently in the same complex. They have a delicious selection of coffee. We have tried waffle on one of our morning visits and it was good. Their breakfast menu is not extensive but complements the coffee. The highlight of this quaint little place are the several stacked up games. While you can always work on your laptop, chat with friends, I think the games add an amazing dimension to this place.

    Meeple's Brew is a unique spot that combines board games with a cozy café vibe. I came for a weekend brunch with friends, and thought it was definitely a great experience. The breakfast menu includes different flavors of waffles, oatmeal, and breakfast sandwiches. There's also a wide variety of cafe drinks including lattes. I ordered the oatmeal and a tea latte. I thought it was a nice touch that they put cute little animal-shaped tea balls to make the drinks. Overall, my drink was solid. Lastly, prices are reasonable for a local cafe.

    The gluten-free options of bread were completely out of stock, and that is one of the main reasons we chose that particular venue.

It's located alongside the leasing office for the apartment complex. The service is great. There were two young ladies working and they were both friendly. I arrived around 4:30 on a beautiful Saturday afternoon and ordered a muffin and a decaf latte since it was so late (for me to drink caffeine). The cranberry lemon muffin was absolutely perfect, so much flavor, so fresh & moist. The Salted Brown Butter Latte was the best. From the first sip to the last drop, I loved it. I sat on a small section of a very comfortable couch with pillows and all. I later sat out front on one of the benches. They also have a patio seating out back.

I received confused looks from the two employees that were standing behind the counter. They didn't have a rag to clean with so they told me to use wet napkins to clean the table. The response wasn't what I expected, but I got the impression the employees don't clean this establishment. They had no idea what to do. Kind of strange. I used water and a pile of napkins to clean everything off onto the floor. Other than that, the coffee and atmosphere were good. Not sure we'll return. It is a cool place though.

The space is fairly large and they stay open late (until 11 PM on weekends), making it a great place to hang out with friends or stop by to satisfy a sweet tooth during a night out. I've purchased their macarons as gifts, tried several desserts here and to-go, grabbed coffee and stayed to do work, and even stopped by for lunch. Their light bites are quite tasty, and I especially enjoy their phyllo-dough pastries. Their latte options are great--the flavors are creative yet still approachable, and the syrup options are delicious. Service is attentive and efficient. There's always a big team behind the counter, and instead of calling names, they give you a number and bring food or drinks directly to your table, which is so thoughtful! They can get quite busy at times - lots of families and big groups stop by to hang out. I enjoy the community it brings, though sometimes this is not the most ideal place to get work done. Highly recommend Asali for anyone looking to try creative desserts, a great cup of latte!

It took some time to find parking as the surrounding parking lots were full, but I found street parking around the corner. The ambiance is warm and cozy.

I ordered a cookie butter latte and an oatmeal raisin cookie w/ walnuts. Both were absolutely delicious, a great combo. When I finished my latte, I dipped my cookie in the cup to get the last of the foam...so good. The baked goods are from Ninth Street Bakery in Durham. How amazing local supporting local. I sat at the bar area. I loved that there were hooks underneath for your belongings, you don't see that everywhere. They have the high top areas, along with a few tables and chairs.

Overall, the little coffee shop is cute and has a little bit of outdoor seating which I liked but is expensive for being so mid in my opinion. I ended up paying almost $7 for a blueberry latte. Overall, my latte tasted like a regular latte, even though it did have a seasonal blueberry syrup added to it. I know that blueberry is very light in flavor compared to coffee so I asked for more than the allotted amount of syrup and their response was that they had a certain amount added to of syrups added. So I said ok thinking they would take that into consideration but when I got my coffee, guess the amount they added didn't matter because it tasted the same as a latte regular. Unfortunately, at the end of my coffee (like the last 20%) had what I assume to be bits of berry in it? The texture made me toss the remaining amount. With the high prices and the location right on a busy street / no parking I probably wouldn't be back but I did enjoy being about to sit outside under an umbrella and the service was nice / fast. All the stars would go to the servers and overall cleanliness honestly.
