Read moreThis a fantastic little coffee shop! I stopped by for a few hours to get some work done while waiting for my daughter’s school to let out. I noticed a 1 star review for the establishment not allowing dogs inside unless they are trained service animals; which means that dude has never worked in any food service place and is unreasonably mad because he got told “no”. The owner responded very well to him and that’s all I’ll say about him.
The coffee shop itself is awesome! It is located right in downtown Cary, within walking distance of a lovely park, post office, library, markets, or whatever you’d need in downtown. My tea latte was prepared quickly and was just what I needed! I also tried a pastry that is supplied by a local bakery (chocolate chip cookie- classic but delicious!)

This place has a clear mission and is doing very well to achieve it! Very glad I chose to come work here today! I will be...
Read moreThis is a really lovely place to get a cup of coffee. From the moment I walked in the door, I felt welcome. It was really really helpful, being away from home and in a new city, to have a place I could go for my morning coffee where I felt safe. Scripting by the employees meant that I was able to interact using my own scripts, saving me mental and social energy. It also wasn't too loud, the lighting wasn't too harsh, and the overall environment was extremely pleasant. The merch and art available was fantastic and I found a few things I just had to bring home! I appreciated the creative seasonal drink options and they were very tasty too! It's a great option in the area if you like sweet and fun drinks, including those without coffee in them. Many shops use a very dark and intense espresso, which is not my preference, and so it was extra-nice to have something a bit lighter. The chocolate croissant I had was simply ok, but it's a coffee shop, not a bakery! If I'm back in Cary, I'll be back...
