I'm knocking off a star for the girl at the counter. We were literally the only people who walked in and she just stared at us. No smile, no greeting. Cozy looking inside, we chose outdoor seating since it was a beautiful morning. The food was delicious, I'd go back again. The French Toast was made from cinnamon bread. 2 pieces with some fruit would be perfect. The coffee, I really wanted to like it but next time I'll stroll down to the wine shop and pick up mimosa. read more

Treehouse Coffee - Chicken biscuit! Sooooo good!! - Cafes Near Me - Duck, North Carolina

We ordered delicious drinks (a mocha latte and a matcha) and we both ordered the crab cake breakfast sandwich and a side of bacon. The servings were huge and the bacon is thick cut and delicious. We wish we would have ordered 1 of each and shared. Also dog friendly seating outside and we're kind enough to bring a bowl of water out for our 2 pups. We would come again! read more

Their lattes + biscuits are INCREDIBLE. I came back three times in our one week vacation! This is a MUST GO, MUST SEE place. I was HOOKED for the remainder of our vacation. I have been dreaming about this cafe and its delicious goods, genuinely kind and attentive staff, and its dreamy cozy spot among the trees! It's truly a special place. The outdoor area is so unique and accommodating for little ones, big families, and enjoying your food or drink among gorgeous trees and a front row seat to fresh biscuits making their way into the kitchen. Oh. yeah. Thank you for what you are doing, Treehouse Coffee! I cannot wait to Lord-willing return and enjoy this spot all over again. Major highlight of the trip! read more

My husband and I stopped in for breakfast here and we were not disappointed! We both chose breakfast sandwiches, and a pastry for each of us. I got the chocolate chip muffin and he got the cherry danish. All of our food was awesome, and the service was quick and friendly. Highly recommend! read more

Treehouse Coffee - Bacon egg and cheese biscuit and Nashville hot chicken biscuit - Cafes Near Me - Duck, North Carolina

Wanted to like it. A probably could with a few improvements. We got there just in time. I will say that. Got there about 830 am. Not a long line. Ordered two sandwiches, one with no biscuit due to gluten allergies. Two coffees. One coffee right the other on not so much. Not even sure it was coffee. Waited 40 mins for food. As stated earlier came out wrong. The one with "no biscuit" They said they could fix it but would be at least 35 mins. No thanks. Was able to pick the biscuit off with little issues. Nice area in kind of a outdoor seating area. Quite and relaxing, then some guy with a guitar shows up, he was ok but why play loud guitar melody's when your already playing house music? Didn't make much sense. Lastly the flys...gaaaaauud lord the flys. Like you could not sit your food down or it was swarmed with flys. Not sure what can be done about that but huge turn off. I get outdoor seating and expect some but this was more than the usual annoying fly. When we left at almost 10..note time we got there..looong wait for food. The line was probably 30 people deep. I will say chicken sandwich/biscuit is good. Falls apart so make sure you get silverware but great flavor. read more

Asked specifically if the "low rider" was gluten free. Was told yes by staff. Meal arrived as breaded chili relleno on a biscuit. Could not eat any of it. Take care if you have dietary restrictions. read more

Really great breakfast spot in Duck! Tree House Coffee and Rope Ladder Kitchen are the same spot. They currently have two seperate Yelp reviews so it can get confusing. You can get your tasty coffee AND biscuits here. For coffee they carry Counterculture which is definitely my favorite NC roaster. They also have an expansive speciality coffee drink menu as well. On to the biscuits! Plenty to choose from for vegetarians and carnivores alike. I went with the classic bacon, egg, and cheese biscuit and was not disappointed. My friend got the special of the day which had brie cheese and apple sausage, and my other friend got egg and avocado. Everyone enjoyed their huge crumbly biscuit and we all agreed we would head back in next time! We had a little bit of a hard time finding them. They are essentially located directly in the center of this group of stores. You won't see their shop from the street. read more

Great experience for breakfast while on vacation - we actually went both days while in town. Caution: very large portions (my husband and I could have probably shared) and serves counter culture coffee. read more

Great spot tucked away in a duck shopping area. Lots of outdoor seating and cute interior. Very crowded and took a long time, but I didn't mind waiting. Good selection of food options, but the coffee was amazing. Numerous amounts of flavors, milks, and sizes. Definitely would go back! read more

The girl taking orders didn't understand English very well. Then they maxed out the ice in my $8 cold brew to where there was barely any coffee in it. I'll skip these guys in the future. read more

Such a cute spot! I've been here several times and it always delivers! Most recently I tried their latte w/ oat milk and honey syrup. While it could have used less pumps of the honey syrup, the coffee itself was delicious. I also had the biscuit with cheese and egg, which was super yummy, albeit quite filling. The ambience is so cute with all the trees and outdoor seating. Highly recommend! read more

Delish food, very cool scene. Had to wait an unusual amount of time for hot coffee to be brewed but it might have just been a miscommunication or someone forgot. Other than that, great place! read more

Finally a decent cappuccino in OBX... or at least that's what my notes say. And my memory says they also had pretty decent biscuit sando's. But nothing really to write home about. I'd stick with the coffee- take it to the large courtyard and enjoy the morning views... read more

My wife and I enjoyed Treehouse Coffee 2X during our stay here in Duck. We thought the hot beverages were very good; latte, cortado, regular dark coffee. The biscuit with honey was very tasty as well as the bacon, egg and cheese biscuit. (Be ready to use a fork for the bacon, egg and cheese biscuit, not a big deal at all) Service was timely and the space itself is very nice, whether or not you'd like to sit inside or outside on the covered porch or courtyard. Colm was a nice young man who was efficient and caring. read more

Cutest coffee shop in Duck, and they also have brunch each day that they're open! I love coming here for breakfast when its nice out because you can sit outside in the courtyard of Scarborough Fair. I also love coming just for some coffee and walking around to the shops afterwards. My favorite things at Treehouse are: The specials- there are always really unique specials, like Duck Empanadas! Matcha- Iced Almond Milk Matcha Latte with one pump of Vanilla! The Biscuits- They're homemade. read more

Biscuits lived up to the hype....so delish! Coffee was great, and the vibe there was so beachy and fun!

This cafe is tucked away but it is worth the trip. Breakfast biscuits are the best! The scrambled eggs in the biscuits are the fluffiest I have ever eaten! Great coffee and beverages. read more

Stopped by Sunday morning on the way out of OBX and had the breakfast burrito. This was by far the best breakfast burrito I have ever had in my entire life! The eggs were moist and fluffy, not a lot of potatoes, and the cheese, avocado and lime sauce blended perfect with the salsa. The salsa Rosa was on the side so you can spice it up to your own taste. Can't wait to get back down there so I can stop by again! read more

This is a good little spot on Scarborough Faire if you are staying in Duck or nearby. It's a beachy and relaxed place with great coffee. The staff were friendly and the place was clean. The food was average. The biscuits and brisket was not great as the brisket was dry and tough and not enjoyable. My favorite dish was simple, biscuits with honey and sea salt. read more

Get the French toast- seriously good. Biscuits do tend to fall apart for sandwiches but flavor is great. Nice courtyard seating and bomb coffee read more

We stopped by one morning for breakfast. I had read the wonderful reviews and frankly didn't believe them. The reviews seemed a little too good. News Flash- the biscuits there really are THAT good. Fluffy, tender and full of flavor (honey). My husband liked the biscuit but didn't care for the sweetness of the honey. Lovely courtyard, inside dining or out at any of the tables on the boardwalk. Try the biscuits!!! read more

This is the best coffee shop in Duck in my opinion...coffee is good the cashier is so sweet even tho they are CRAZY busy ALL the time...expect to wait but you will not be disappointed! If you are in a rush this is not your place...and trying to skip the line an mobile order -doesn't matter you will be waiting!! But again you will not be disappointed!! They are a hard working crew so tip well! read more

It was initially a really cute spot to grab some breakfast and hang out. However, the line was really long so I decided to place a mobile order and wait instead. I stood at the pick up counter for around 20 minutes AFTER the order stated it would be done for 1 drink so at least 45 minutes, and when I asked the lady making the drinks if it was perhaps missed..she stated I had to wait in line to "check in" and acted confused like it didn't exist. It really defeats the purpose of placing a mobile order if you have to proceed to stand in line to checkin. It doesn't even state that anywhere when placing the mobile order. The service needs some work. Don't place a mobile order expecting it to be ready anywhere near the time it gives you. read more

Okay, yep, I had a good meal. Nice little bacon egg and cheese on a delicious biscuit? Yum. Yum. Yum. I'll be honest with this next part ya'll... the bacon was f-a-n-tastic. Not sure if it was the ingredients or the cook but either way, compliments to the establishment on that bacon baby. Yum. Seriously, this is a great little teeny spot in Duck. Only problem: quite a wait for my coffee. Moss grows fat on a rolling stone type deal. However, that one little flaw should not and does not besmirch this place from being a fantastic breakfast spot(except for holding it back from the coveted 5th star). Thank you, Treehouse, for the experience. read more

Long wait and closes at 12pm but man is it worth it or what!!! I got the honey biscuits, all kinds of coffee, the yummy peach waffles, and so much more! I will wake up early just to make sure I get here. The prices are good too and they are in this adorable area where you can sit outside and enjoy before getting started with your exploring day. There are also a bunch of cute shops so grab your coffee and a snack and shop around read more

Amazing food, no matter what you get. We went on a Saturday late morning during a holiday weekend. We had a 45 minute wait for food but well worth the wait!! Grab a pastry while you wait, you won't be disappointed. We also got their Chi Tea and cold brew coffee which were both excellent. Enjoy the peaceful outdoor setting while you visit with friends and family. read more

I'll start with saying that the food here is really good. The chicken biscuits are amazing, and while I haven't tried everything I've seen most items and have received feedback from people I've been here with. The exception being the avacado toast which isn't great and overpriced. Service is good, and the ambiance is ok..it feels like a small town coffee shop. Manhattan pricing..if you're looking for grab and go there may be better options. Being local I'd go more often and support them during the slower months with locals discount. read more

Was going to leave two stars as the service was acceptable for being busy. However, after waiting 45 minutes for a dry biscuit that crumbled upon touching the plate and receiving a thousand bread crumbs, I was clearly upset. Not to mention a single strip of bacon for what "could" be called a biscuit. Wanting to request a replacement, the fear of waiting another 45 minutes... I accepted defeat. Yet, after making a comment - "This place sucked" in a private conversation, the bald food runner felt it necessary to approach me and ask me to leave. A private conversation that he intruded on. This business received my money, I was dissatisfied and made a comment in a private conversation. If he felt it necessary to approach me, maybe offer a better product. The Wendy's up the road has a delicious $2 biscuit, you'll have better luck there. V.S. read more

Best coffee on the banks. We love this coffee shop . We have since it opened and nobody knew of the place. Now with the reputation they have and the outstanding food they have added it's crazy getting into this place. An hour and half wait to get coffee on days we are not eating breakfast is a little much. I wish they would separate their food to a different ordering place instead of the same person taking your coffee order and food. The food, coffee and service is 5 star and it shows. read more

This is the best coffee in Duck, and they also make some great breakfast sandwiches! Everything is served with a polite "Go F yourself attitude" by the European help they hire each year. Nothing against Europeans by any means, the ones here just have a bit of an attitude. Barring that, the coffee is excellent. Give it a try. Expect a long line on summer mornings. Drinks are pretty quick, sandwiches can take quite a while. It is set back from the main road but easy to get to. Turn on Christopher Street and you can park right next to the shop. If you're going to enjoy your latte there get it in a "for here" cup and enjoy it in a real mug instead of paper. Everyone raves about the biscuit sandwiches. I don't notice it being different than any other biscuit, but they're made fresh and the sandwiches are good. Mine came with a very very small side of fruit on an otherwise lonely plate. They have Aardvark Hot Sauce to add to your sandwiches. Look for it. Excellent stuff. read more

My wife and I stopped in for coffee and ended up eating brunch... she had a most inventive salad which had avocados, quinoa, black beans and assorted other cool items; to quote her: " this is one of the best dishes that I have ever had!" I had the Huevos Rancheros, which came wrapped in a tortilla and they were spectacular! Very generous portions and the young lady taking orders was super friendly and had a giant smile on her face all the time! Oh yeah: the coffee was great as well! read more

A great place for coffee, local food, and friends hidden in the woods. This place is phenomenal and is very welcoming when you enter. When you walk in, there is a barista counter where you order your coffee and food items. There is plenty of seating available throughout the cafe that can range from a spot of 2 to 8 people. The food is fantastic as well. I always get a mocha with the homemade biscuits. They are absolutely the best biscuits I've ever had, with honey and jam available to add to it. I am attaching some foods that we enjoyed and definitely recommend. The staff is super thrilled to have new comers and are very talkative with locals as well. 10/10 recommend if your visiting the Duck area! read more

Treehouse Coffee - Waiting for our breakfast - Cafes Near Me - Duck, North Carolina

Not Open on Sunday needs to update hours so you don't have to go all the way back there.

We decided to stop here for breakfast on a Saturday around 8 am and it was clearly a very popular place judging by the line to order. They serve coffee and breakfast sandwiches all on their own biscuits. I ordered a biscuit and honey and my husband had a ham and egg sandwich. We both shared a blueberry muffin which was definitely not quite fresh as it was cold from being recently removed from a refrigerator. The biscuits were great but honestly the coffee was the best part. Do not come here if you're looking for lighter fare. Our food was great but definitely greasy and buttery. It took us about an hour from the time we got in line until we received our food so plan accordingly! read more
