vanilla latte
Alexis M.

traveled to Thousand Hills Coffee to see what the rave was about, maybe if you live in that area, sure but not worth the 30 minute drive in my opinion. The cafe was beautiful, clean, coffee and work area tidy and pretty quick service; However, for the price of a standard vanilla latte...I was disappointed. The vanilla part was nice, no after taste (like you get from starbucks or dunkin) but the burnt espresso was too overpowering..i drank enough to take a picture, threw it out and went to dutch bros. If you're in the area, esp the apartments in the back, I would give it a try...the staff is super friendly

I just left this spot after finding it on maps. Like literally just left. When I tell you this is the FASTEST I have ever ordered a coffee and then received it. MY GAWD. And the drink is fire too! I swear I was planning to wait minimum 7-10 minutes, because that's what I have experienced at other coffee shops. But not here. The staff was nice and welcoming as well. I will 100% be back! Keep up the great work!

Interior

Super friendly neighborhood coffee shop with modern interior and lots of spots to work or chill indoors and outdoors. Had the salted brown butter pumpkin latte (seasonal) and was shocked that it wasn't overly sweet. Super smooth, subtle flavors of fall - perfection! I will def be back.

Such a cute place! Love the vibe and atmosphere. Lots of great coffee and tea drinks to choose from. They also have beer and wine and small snacks. Lots of varied seating including tables soft chairs and couches. Service was pretty quick. Was a great little stop for an afternoon pick me up.

A very cool trendy coffee shop that's very popular and lacks a decent amount of parking. I went here the other day to meet a friend and get coffee. I got the seasonal cold brew with pumpkin cream. It was very tasty. A little pricier than most places for the size. They have a well curated but smaller selection of drinks along with a pastry selection. There's a lot of comfortable seating but mostly taken up by a lot of Gen Z's on laptops.

Maple brown sugar latte

Thousand Hills Coffee is nested in a busy apartment complex. There's plenty of free parking available, though not all immediately by the entrance of the coffee shop. We went on a Saturday afternoon which probably did not help the cause, but there were only a couple of tables available, which luckily we snagged one. I opted for the maple brown sugar latte. I really liked the flavor of the brown sugar itself, though I wished the espresso notes would have cut through more. My preference is for stronger, more acidic tasting espresso though. Glad I was able to check this coffee shop out since it was on my list, but not sure it's one I will rush back to.

I fell in love with Thousand Hills the moment I walked in. The decor is so beautiful and there are so 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!!

My friend and I stopped in after having it bookmarked for a while and fell in love with the space and drinks! The coffee shop is connected to an apartment lease building and the decor is cozy , open, and vibrant. The cafe was full and I like the bright open windows. As for the coffee, we both had iced latte drinks (vanilla with salted cold foam) and the cardamom one. Service was great and our drinks were really yummy. The pastries also looked very fresh and will have to give them a try next time.

Salted Brown Butter Latte

I was so excited to see one of my favorite local coffee shops on the list for RDU Coffee Crawls - this spot has ample sitting space both indoor and outdoor, a smaller coffee and tea menu with some signature drinks added in as well and they also serve beer and some delicious fresh pastries/sandwiches. The baristas are wonderful and eager to make sure you're ordering something you love so ask for their advice if you're unsure. Perfect little hidden spot by the airport!

We went around 9 on a Saturday and had about a 10 minute wait! I would 100% go again if it's not busy I do not know that the coffee shop is part of the leasing office for the apartments, so a lot of tenants were there also. This was a unique structure, but it didn't impact the service or seating. The space is very cute and we didn't have any issue finding parking. Not to mention, the coffee was delicious!!

Thousand hills might be one of my new favorite coffee spots in RTP! I love how spacious it is in side and how they have lots of indoor and outdoor seating. My friends and I came on a weekday afternoon and it was pretty busy inside. I ordered the periwinkle matcha and it was absolutely delicious! I love how a lot of there drinks can be latte or matcha. I ordered a coffee to do as well to drink the next day and it was very good the next day. Also, the staff was also so friendly! I will definitely be coming back

Cardamom matcha latte with a buttered and a chocolate croissant
Jillian S.

Excellent customer service. Elegant exterior and foliage. Bright spacious interior. Flaky croissants and decent coffee. Adequate parking. Sound level is lower making it a reasonable place to work or unwind. Overall, a good choice for coffee and pastries!

Nice floor-to-ceiling windows that let in lots of natural light
Mo F.

Visited Thousand Hills on a summer Sunday evening, about 30 minutes before closing. The 218 Southport Dr address on Yelp is incorrect; it's located on Athletic Ln. It's next to a leasing office and close to condominiums/apartments -- really tucked away and I wouldn't have ever noticed it had it not been for reading Yelp reviews. The spacious indoor seating had a good number of patrons that Sunday evening. I found a seat at the counter along the floor-to-ceiling windows. While the overall atmosphere was pleasant with soft music playing in the background, I did note that this may not always be ideal for deep focus or quiet studying. Because the space is large and invites a larger number of patrons to enjoy their coffee indoors, there is more collective chatter (and just one or two loud patrons would be enough to make it difficult to concentrate, but this is not establishment-specific as it could be an issue at any larger shop.) I ordered the strawberry lavender matcha, which was very refreshing. The hint of lavender was a lovely touch. I also treated myself to a childhood favorite -- a Rice Krispie treat. The space has a modern, inviting vibe with a variety of seating options--counter-like seating by the floor-to-ceiling windows, cozy sofas, a long communal table with lamps, and spots near the baristas. It's stylish yet comfortable. I'd definitely return. It seems like the perfect place to catch up with a friend over coffee--especially in the fall, when the outdoor seating would be enjoyable (it was way too hot for outdoor seating during my visit). First-timer tip: They do not accept cash.

Did you know that the new Morrisville location is actually in Pennsylvania? That's what the corporate website shows under locations :(

Yes there is a location in Pennsylvania but there is also one here in Morrisville off Southport. Each location is privately owned.

Do they serve food?

Hey there, we’re starting slow on the food it so for now it’s just a ham and cheese croissant. We should have a breakfast sandwich and breakfast burrito rolling out in the coming weeks. Baby steps for now! But thank you for your interest and please…

With customizing the ice and sugar added level, you can get the drink that suits you the best. A large menu selection and pleasant service here (although a kiosk ordering option is available as well). I enjoyed it! The Deets: While doing some errands at McCrimmons Corners, I spotted this place and decided on a refreshment stop there. Even on their own items, I've seen this place as BenGong's Tea and Ben Gong's Tea which supposedly means "Her Majesty's" Tea in Chinese. I went into the quaint, bright, inviting bubble tea shop and saw that you can order with staff or by kiosk, a plus for those of us that are not "kiosk friendly" yet. In looking at the menu, I spotted the Green Grape Sparkling Tea and went with that one. The staff member was pleasant and helpful taking my order. I ordered with less ice and no added sweetness, with the added fruit in it the sweetness was just right for me without adding extra so good call. The tasty bubbly tea was just what I wanted, I liked this drink. I did notice afterwards with their online menu that the "toppings" included with this drink are crystal jelly and lime slices, so I think I might ask for no crystal jelly next time. Also of note is that their containers are very sturdy with a good sized portion as well (as they are not the cheapest beverages but again, good quality). My tea came out in pretty good time, I thought, but did I did see others waiting around a bit for their order so it may depend on what you actually order on how quickly you get it. I'm glad I stopped to try out BenGong's Tea and won't hesitate to visit in the future when needing a bit of refreshment.

Helpful service in a nicely decorated small cafe, a nice stop for getting a morning going. The Deets: Deciding to venture out a bit to try some place new, I found Morning Ritual on the trusty Yelp app and headed off to there. It is joined along side The Goat restaurant on the edge of an apartment complex campus near Brier Creek. I like the look of the building and while noticing there is outside seating available, there is a convenient take out window on the side as well. I went inside and liked the warm, inviting but still slightly modern look of the cafe style seating and ordering area. There are a couple of seats within range of a power outlet and there is WiFi but note it is public/no password/unsecured access, it appears. Their menu shows a good array of beverages and eats to satisfy those morning needs. I decided on a 16 oz hot skim latte to drink to enjoy there and then ordered the Egg + Cheese Scramble which has Monterey Jack and Cheddar and served with one of their biscuits. You order and pay at the register/counter then they give you a table number to take to your seat. My beverage came in well enough time to enjoy while I waited on my food order. My latte was so good that I had no need for additions such as sweetener or syrups and I like the mug with it to enjoy in house. Food came in good time as well, looking pretty tempting. The toasted biscuit was good and I liked it but a tad small bit sweet for a Southern type biscuit (the type that I'm used to/grown up with enjoying). The scramble was really great...I usually do not favor getting cheese in my scrambled eggs but everything was delicious here and perfect texture as well as portion on the eggs themselves in a small cafe setting. There's always that challenge in a new coffee shop/cafe in figuring out their used dishes protocol/station but loved that my server saw me searching and happily took my dishes at the counter for me. I enjoyed this first visit to Morning Ritual and can see me visiting in the future, I like it.

The coffee was actually delicious. The service not so much!…read more To be fair I ordered my coffee with my breakfast at The Goat (the restaurant that Morning Ritual shares the building with) but the coffee is listed on The Goat's menu, so they need to get in sync. Our breakfast ended up coming out before coffee, which made no sense. I had to ask about the coffees before they were actually made. When the girl came from morning ritual She brought out my husbands, hot cappuccino but my mocha out iced and I immediately said I don't drink cold coffee and I did an order iced. Instead of being apologetic, and stating that she would change it, she just snatched the iced coffee and walked away. That was such a strange encounter. It was rude and I got no apology, nor did I get any explanation of what would happen next. I let my server know to ensure I was still going to get a coffee because I can't live without my coffee in the morning! When my Moca loved her honey, oat milk, coffee came I took a sip and was glad i didn't flip out and say "forget the coffee" (as I was already done with breakfast by the time in arrived) because the drink was delicious! If I'm ever back in the area (I was staying in Raleigh but decided to take a little detour into Durham that morning) I'll come to only Morning Ritual to see if I can change this 3 star review for service issues into a 5. For now they need to work on getting coffee service to The Goat streamlined!

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!
