I fell in love with Thousand Hills the moment I walked in. The decor is so beautiful and there are…read moreso many comfy places to sit as well as tables inside and outside. 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 can't wait to go back to Thousand Hills!!

We happened upon this coffee shop on a day trip to the triangle area. Parking is very limited near…read morethe coffee shop. It's a very busy place. Inside there was seating and space for whatever you're looking for. Chairs, sofas, meeting spaces, and outdoor seating. It's a large coffee shop. We waited in line and ordered our coffees. A few minutes later we received our beverages. We found a couple chairs with a small table in between. The table was dirty so I asked for a towel or rag to clean the table with. 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.

Hands down my favorite coffee house…read more As someone who cares not only about ambiance, but also the quality of service & of course coffee & treats, Simmer hits the mark everytime. A great spot to work from or grab a coffee with a friend with cozy corners & a friendly atmosphere. Also can we take a moment for the Ube cloud?? Never had Ube before, & was used to Matcha tasting like grass- 1000% recommend stopping in for this alone to try something new (especially with the Spring weather rolling in)!

I absolutely love Simmer Coffee House. I try to visit at least twice a month. If I lived near by,…read moreI'd be there everyday!!! The customer service at Simmer is the best in NC. From the owners to the baristas, everyone is so friendly, and so intentional. They always remember me. Special shoutout to Matthew!! It's super cute inside, cozy, yet spacious. You can grab a table or sit on a comfy couch. I dream about their coffee, it's so amazing. I make sure I try a different latte every visit! Sad to say I've only had the salmon salmon & capers toast, but I loved every bite. The next chance I get to sit in and enjoy my visit, I'm trying another toast. The pastries are super yummy as well. They also have matcha, teas, cocoa and a variety of cold beverages. I went in today and they now feature local artisans goodies. I purchased a bag of Chad's Carolina Corn, Gourmet Popcorn. If you're ever even remotely in the area, you have to stop by and experience Simmer House for yourself.

I have tried the Mac & Cheese bowls, Tacos, different proteins and bases and all the sauces. I don't have a favorite, I eat whatever I feel like for that day. Definitely don't miss the chocolate chip cookies! In response to the other review, we've never had a problem with the portion size of the proteins or veggies. In fact, we find them generous and a hearty meal, including a post-workout meal on a Sunday afternoon. If you haven't tried this place, you are missing out on a unique experience of flavor and an tasty alternative to the same old burger or chicken and fries.

Our whole experience here was pretty bad. We ordered drinks and tried to put lids on the cup but…read morethe lids seemed too big. I asked the cashier at the front about it and she told me that there are lids under the drink station. I guess she was too busy to get them for me and tried to make me do it? I couldn't find them so I gave up. She did eventually come out and replace the lids though but never told me that she did it. They also ran out of broccoli and had to drop some more but never told us how long it was going to take. So I was waiting for 5-10 minutes for my girlfriend's food to be ready as my food got cold. Wouldn't have been as bad but they never told us how long the wait would be and we were both getting hungry. There were also a good amount of flies in the restaurant. We tried to sit outside but there were a lot of flies there too. Instead we walked to the brewery where the flies seemed to leave us alone. My food was seasoned well enough and had a good flavor but it didn't really taste that fresh. Not sure if it was from the wait but I'm sure it didn't help. It seemed like the ingredients may have been sitting out a while. I don't think I'll be back which is unfortunate because I was excited to find a healthier fast food restaurant.

The drink was super refreshing on a sunny day, and it was perfect for midday pick-me-up. 10/10 recommend getting after having Bulkogi first! Service was not as fast as a typical coffee shop for making my matcha, so if I was in a time crunch, I wouldn't get that drink. The fall specials my coworkers got were completed a lot faster than mine, and everyone had to wait for me.

There are tables inside and out (when the weather is good they even open the garage door so that it morphs into one large space), comfortable and ample seating, and even some fun multilevel bench style seats inside allowing for you to work, hang out with a small group, or even just quickly grab some coffee. The staff was friendly and service was prompt. The coffee options were plentiful, with options for whatever your preferences may be whether you're more of a coffee enthusiast looking for lighter roast to taste all the notes, or enjoy more flavored and decadent drinks. One thing that was an incredibly exciting surprise the last time I went were the whole beans they had for sale from Fritz Coffee (imported from Korea im pretty sure). I had to grab a bag despite them being a bit pricey as they were freshly roasted too (price was expected for something like that). A slight down point for me though was the food, got a couple chocolate chip cookies and they were very much not worth it. Overall though would highly recommend and will likely return, though do need to be careful of timings as there can be quite the rush due to high demand.

The yogurt was a large portion and was very good. Coffee was a little strong and bitter, probably designed to have additives rather than being drank black. Pairing with the yogurt made it taste a lot better though. Service was friendly and the prices were reasonable. It was a bit noisy inside, just because there were a lot of customers and everyone was talking. The store is clean and bright with a neat little riser on one side. My only complaint was that there were no refills. That's unusual for black, drip coffee.

It's super spacious, with tons of natural light, high ceilings, and both indoor and outdoor seating. The outside patio has cushy lounge seats, perfect for soaking up sunshine (though it's right by the highway, so some outdoor spots come with a bit of traffic noise during rush hours). This place is a dream for remote work. Every table is so spread out (esp outdoor) that you don't overhear other conversations, no loud music, and sunlight streaming in from every corner. Service was quick and thoughtfully accommodating. I appreciated that they bring food in a to-go container if you're sitting outside, so you're not stuck carrying plates back. And bonus points for their commitment to using sustainable packaging. The coffee was quite delicious! Jubala Coffee actually makes a type of specialty beans roasted just for F&F. Their drink menu is on the simpler side, but they usually have a couple of seasonal lattes, and everything I tried tasted great. Food-wise, it's a gem: generous portions, very reasonably priced, and flavorful. It reminded me a bit of Fount Kitchen in its "organic, healthy" vibe, but with more non-vegetarian options and even better flavor. There's plenty of parking right out front, but sadly they close at 2:30pm, so it's more of a morning or lunch spot. All in all, a wonderful place for a morning work sesh or a work lunch in style!

I really loved their cafe/bookstore vibe, plenty of fun little Knick knacks as well (pins, stickers, locally hand crafted toddler toys, origami rose bouquets... you name it). The books are well-organized, and if you buy certain books you can also get a free drink! I loved everything about this place, very cozy vibe and really fell in love with their space. I was recommended to try their iced peanut butter persuasion which also had a peanut butter foam on top. Absolutely loved it- amazing recommendation. Y'all have to come by to check it out!

The staff working were very kind and brought out more chairs for the group when all the spots filled up. I browsed the store before leaving.
