We ordered an iced matcha latte and one of their barista favorites(Josiah), as well as a blueberry scone. The drinks were good as they weren't overly sweet and the blueberry scone had good flavor. There were also a bunch of cute things you could purchase that were made locally. There was even a room for younger kids to play in. The service was friendly, and overall it's a great place to hang out. We need to try their ice cream next time we come back.

I went during their holiday menu and was blown away. I tried the Little Debbie latte and not only…read morewas the drink delicious but it came with the cutest latte art on top! It looked just like a Little Debbie Christmas Tree. I loved that they had a lot of patio seating. It was perfect for taking our GIANT donut outside to feed to the toddlers.

(So be prepared to wait--and maybe know what you want to order so you're ready when you get to the register.) Before heading out of town, a friend and I were recommended to pop into Sonder for the coffee flight. When we were ready to order, we were advised that they only had enough cups for one iced coffee flight, but they could do a hot coffee flight. Both wanting iced, we opted to get a regular sized coffee and smoothie bowl to go. Though disappointed about the inability to try the (iced) coffee flight, the lattes we did order and my friend's smoothie bowl were delicious! We will definitely be going back to try out their new location and the coffee flight!

Parallax Coffee in Wendell, NC was such a great find (thank you @coffee crawl) especially since it…read morewas my first time in Wendell! I'm a sucker for a seasonal menu and the shortbread old fashioned was like heaven in a cup. #Caffeinefix The space is cozy enough to camp out and work remotely, but spacious enough for both big groups and intimate hangs without feeling crowded. The staff was amazing and shoutout to Pamela for supporting my insta moments. To sum it up, this place is comfortable and welcoming. I'll definitely be back!

This coffee shop has been on my list to try for months and since it was part of the RDU Coffee…read moreCrawl list for April, it was a sign that I just had to go! They just celebrated their second anniversary yesterday so I guess it hasn't been around for long but they have a lot of locals stop by and hang out for a bit. The space is massive, offering plenty of seating and lounging spots, super clean and just a beautiful aesthetic (maybe just need to give their plants some TLC lol) but the coffee was incredible! You can tell the baristas take pride in their craft and it shows with their drinks. I had the brown sugar flat white which was a recommendation from one of the regulars there and it was heavenly. It's a solid 40 minutes away from home but worth the trip!

They have a seat yourself service on Sunday, except there were no tables available since they all still had plates/trash on them. Took about 20 minutes until we could order, girl running the cashier was nice and helpful though. Food only took about 15 minutes for my family but about 25 for mine. Family had the Pressed Bagel with ham, egg, and cheese as well as the 3 cheese grilled cheese and I had the bacon, eggs, and side of home fries. Everything was ok, nothing out of this world but then I found a males hair in my food. I wasn't even a quarter into my food so that was extremely wasteful. To top it off, my daughter stood by the counter waiting for someone to help her grab a container for her muffin to-go and the man running that side completely ignored her several times. It wasn't until a young lady walked over that my daughter was able to get her attention for help. For the price we paid it was not even close to worth our time let alone our money. Besides the tables not being busted it was pretty clean, bathrooms were clean, and a cute set up.

The staff was friendly, welcoming, and moved with purpose--no one was just standing around. I ordered the herb-crusted salmon mesa bowl and it did not disappoint. The salmon was seasoned well with a perfect sear, and the sides actually felt fresh and intentional, not like fillers. Loved the kale, the sweet potatoes, and that corn was shockingly good. The green sauce on the side added the right kick and pulled everything together. Portions are generous, the food tastes clean and well-prepared, and the atmosphere feels like a local favorite in the making. I'll definitely be back.

I've been here many times and there's always something new to try. This visit I ordered the special Lovers Latte, with raspberry flavors. It was not overly sweet but just right. Still a good espresso base with just a touch of flavor. The vibe is friendly and easy going here. You can get in and out quick or stay to study, as many do. It's clean, parking is fairly easy and there's seating indoors and outside. They even have a coffee bag vending machine out front now. That's pretty cool.

I am a pour over junkie and look for coffee shops that have it and also brew pour over had home daily. These are the best beans around. I will often drive 20 minutes to Wake Forest just to get some. Whether you're wanting a great cup of coffee at their cafe or want to brew your own at home, it doesn't get any better than this! I recently bought a bag of Esteban Zamora and it was one of the most amazing cups of coffee I've ever brewed. Imagine a great cup of coffee with hints of cinnamon and apple pie but without being sweet and beautifully enhancing that warm, roasted goodness. I love the downtown Raleigh location too. They have a great courtyard patio to hang out and enjoy a cup of coffee when the weather is nice.

The booths are spotless, comfy, and practically beg you to linger--at least until the crowd rolls in. When it's quiet, it's charming. When it's busy, it's loud. Think espresso machines competing with over enthusiastic kids and a room that amplifies every giggle, shuffle, and snack-time negotiation. Intimate in size, big on personality, and absolutely buzzing when the tiny humans take over--come for the coffee, stay for the chaos (or bring noise-canceling headphones). The staff here are the kind of friendly that feels genuine, not rehearsed--always attentive, always moving, They whip up a solid cortado with confidence, but where they really shine is the cappuccino: velvety, balanced, and clearly made by people who care about the details. The breakfast sandwiches are freshly made, warm, and reliably good--nothing fancy or overthought, just simple, satisfying fuel done right. The prices have a bit of main-character energy--slightly higher than you expect, confidently so, your wallet may raise an eyebrow, but the coffee shrugs and says, worth it. Cheers!
