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. One donut was easily 2-3 regular donuts. Can't wait to return and try the Valentine's Day Menu.

(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!

Parallax has been on my list of coffee shops for some time now, and I finally made it today…read more It's located in downtown Wendell, which is so cute and cozy. There's plenty of parking surrounding Parallax. When I arrived there were 3 others enjoying the very beautiful coffee shop, but by the time I left it had gotten very busy. It's super pretty inside, very spacious and comfortable. I had 2 cookies, the chocolate chip cookie was ok, and the cinnamon roll cookie was delicious. I had a hot brown sugar latte and it was perfect. The service is good. It's a must if you're in Wendell or looking for a cute place to hang out. They are open til 5pm everyday but Sunday, they close at 2pm.

A Delightful Surprise…read more 41 North Coffee Co reminds me of 'The Little Engine that Could'. It's a rather small coffee-house / cafe that serves everything from Premium Coffee Concoctions to Biscuits & Gravy to Paninis & Quiche to Wings & Burgers to Steaks & Lasagna to Affogato with a Biscotti (Gelato with Espresso). I think it has the most diverse and extensive menu in our area, and everything I have tasted so far has been delicious. Inside seating a somewhat limited, so it can get crowded during peak hours. There are a couple of outside tables and the roof-top garden is open when the weather turns nice. Except for Sunday dinner, they are open for every meal every day of the week. The Chicken Salad Croissant was slightly sweet and piled high on a large flakey fresh-baked croissant. The Goat Cheese & Fig Panini came with Mozzarella Cheese, Bacon, fresh Spinach and a Balsamic Glaze pressed in Sourdough Bread. It was exceptional. Our grandson devoured a fluffy Waffle and pronounced it the best he had ever had. We also recommend the Spinach Artichoke Quiche - a generous serving of my favorite egg custard tart loaded with Spinach & Artichoke and gooey Mozzarella & Provolone Cheese. The Bacon, Egg & Gouda Sandwich is another winner. The Apple-wood smoked Bacon, Eggs and Cheese are packed into a toasted English Muffin. For something sweet, try the Oreo Cheesecake - simply delicious. One last thing - the Coffee is also very good.

The food was good, until I found hair in it…read more We had just popped in for a quick brunch before heading home. 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.

I wanted to take a friend to a nice spot Friday June 12, he had never had the pleasure of…read moreexperiencing. I've been here many times however it was his 1st visit. I let him know the food was great, home cooked and good portions. The one thing that ruined the evening was the RUDE waitress, he walked up to the table and before he could sit down she bought my drink out, she asked what will you have to drink, he's looking confused and responds still standing, well what do you have? She rambles all the options so fast I'm not sure he understood all but made a choice. Then he sat down. She came back and slid it on the table like a fly by.. Soon she bought a hush puppy basket they were cold, I dare not complain she was so nasty and distant. Next she came back, order book open and I was like it's his 1st time, she didn't say anything, she just looked out the window and waited, so we just knew we needed to order, so I named my meat before I could finish SIDES??then he simply asks did they have bone in chicken ( I didn't know he was going to ask or I would have told him beforehand) she says no we have , fried chicken breast tenders, sisco chicken etc, she named every chicken dish on the menu without taking a breath.. I can give her props for knowing that..we both were looking at her confused and she never looked at us it was always "looking out the window " He said just give me "Flounder " one piece or two??? He replies one, SIDES??? Like we needed to be on point. She took the menus and left. She asked the questions she needed but was mean, not engaging and just rude. The WAY she asked.. When our food came this waitress walked by and literally slid our food on the table in a way that was like HERE! And kept walking I don't even think she stopped when she put them on the table she may have slowed down. We had to reach towards the end of the table to slide our plates in front of us. We both looking at each other in agreement she just nasty! The next time she came back she walked by and sat down a half glass of refill for his drink, she hadn't asked she just did it, suppose he wanted a glass of water? When we put our forks down she came over to get his plate and bought me a to go box as I still had half my food on my plate and she left the ticket. She didn't say is there anything I can get you or anything the entire time. He put his pymt with the ticket and put it on the edge of the table, I hadn't been in a while so I forgot we would pay on the way out. She was cleaning the floor near us and slid our ticket/pymt farther on our table, as if it was in her way, again he's confused so he said this is ready and she let him know to pay up front. I have never experienced such a nasty waitress at this restaurant and because of this I probably will never go back. I don't like not feeling comfortable and welcomed in a place where my money and time is going into. I started to complain before I left but in reality I don't think it would have mattered, and we left a tip not as much as we would have if she was more pleasant. I don't know whether she was having a bad day, a long day or to take it personal but I can't deal with attitude like that and won't take a chance on it again. This man drove a hour to experience this was just unbelievable!!!!

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.

Small but mighty, this coffee shop is a cozy little caffeine cave wrapped in warm wood tones and…read moresleek modern flair. 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!
