There are some small spaces indoors/outdoors to dine, but not many people stay there and eat. It operates more like a carryout almost. My favorite quick meal here is the chunky chicken noodle soup and 1/2 grilled cheese sandwich combo. Comfort food on demand! Smile. You order at the counter and the wait is generally only a few minutes. 3.5 rounded to a 4. Docked 0.5 because the saltine crackers were somewhat stale.

The attitude I faced at Hereghty today upon entering the…read morecafe twice within an hour, will stick with me for a long time. Perhaps the counter attendant is related to the owners, based on the confidence with which she displayed her disdain for communicating with a customer. As I read other yelp past reviews especially the WiFi one, I can picture the non- working WiFi scene vividly. The woman I worked with today must be the same employee that was so apathetic with the messed up WiFi. One entering a great little cafe like this one as a respite, deserves better treatment than I witnessed. I love the food at Hereghty. But not so much it's worth the bad taste the mistreatment left in my head.

I drove two hours to Raleigh for a client meeting and decided to stick around after to work from a…read morelocal coffee shop. My client recommended Hereghty Heavenly Delicious for their pan au chocolate, laptop-friendly space, and great drinks. Unfortunately, they were out of pan au chocolate (a bummer, but not a dealbreaker), so I ordered a sugar-free vanilla matcha with oat milk for $8.21 (tip included). Before ordering, I mentioned to the barista that I was there specifically to work from my laptop. She knew the internet wasn't working but didn't mention it--so I bought my drink, got settled, and then discovered I couldn't connect. When I asked her fi the internet was working she just said, "Nope," like it wasn't a big deal. Definitely not what I wanted to hear after planning to spend the afternoon there. Hoping for a solution, I asked another staff member (maybe the owner?), who told me the WiFi was working fine for them in the back. When I explained it wasn't working for me and what I had tried, she just kind of shrugged. I totally get that they're not tech support, but a little effort to help or at least acknowledge the situation would have been nice. At that point, I packed up and found another coffee shop 20 minutes away that ended up being amazing--great vibe, solid internet, and a menu that had me wishing I had come there first. But then, in true "one of those days" fashion, I realized I left my computer charger at Hereghty (are you kidding me!), so back I went before giving up on staying in Raleigh and heading home. That said, Hereghty does have some good things going for it: A nice selection of pastries A normal café drink and food menu A quiet, cozy atmosphere Plenty of seating inside and out A convenient location with lots of parking Maybe it was just an off day for all of us, but the lack of communication about the WiFi and the indifferent response left me a little disappointed. If you're just popping in for a pastry and a drink, it's probably a nice spot! But if you need WiFi, I'd double-check before settling in.

We got a cereal donut--good but tasted like sourdough bread which I wasn't expecting so not my favorite. Very large for the price! We also ordered the Carrrot Cake Columbian and a Banana Bread Latte. Both drinks were very coffee forward and had little to know flavoring to them. If I was to go again I would save the money and just order an Americano with cream.

On a nicer day you can sit outside if you prefer. My daughter ordered the waffle with Nutella, and since she wanted syrup, we added the cinnamon glaze. She really enjoyed it. I do wish they had whipped cream as an option because I feel like waffles and whipped cream just go together, but that's honestly a small thing. I ordered the avocado toast with the fried egg on top and also the house-made granola. I did not realize the granola serving was going to be so big, so I definitely over-ordered, but no regrets because everything was so good. The avocado toast was delicious. The bread was soft, fresh, and filling, and the whole thing was just really satisfying. I ended up taking the granola to go, and later that day when I ate it, I was like wow... it was still amazing. Honestly one of the best granola and yogurt bowls I've had. So good. I also got an almond latte. Nothing overly fancy, just a solid latte done well. Staff were friendly and patient, especially with my daughter wanting to order. That always means a lot. Another plus: plenty of parking, and they have two single-stall bathrooms, which is helpful. I also really like the Lafayette Village area in general. After you eat, you can walk around, hang out, and enjoy the area a bit. So it can be a quick coffee stop, or you can make a little outing out of it. Definitely worth checking out.

They are located in a VERY BUSY shopping center. Lots of folks sticking around to hang outdoors in the area. Thankfully I found parking in the lot downstairs in a parking garage with a short walk over. The line was long but moved fast. It was cold and sorta dark inside and crowded compared to it being nice outside, so I chose to sit outside. The courtyard side was packed, so I sat on the parking lot side. Not the best view, but got the job done. They were still serving biscuits, but were no longer serving the oatmeal which was a disappointment. I got the yogurt instead and didn't care for the toppings. My coffee and food came out fast and the biscuit tasted amazing. The biscuit was large, the egg and bacon were perfectly cooked and the iced coffee was delicious. The food is the shining star here. I just wish the ambiance was better. I will be back on a weekday when it's less people to contend with.

This morning, I walked in and saw not one familiar face there, and I've come to learn all the staff walked out simultaneously weeks ago. After getting to know many of the staff over the years of frequenting there, anything to make every staff member walk out at the same time has to be big enough to leave a sour taste in your mouth. Am truly sad to see such a Raleigh staple not see the value in the community their staff created. Cheers to Joe, Brennan, Brett, amber, and all of the others past a present (shout out Tim and Casey and Jackie!) for their place in our lives over all of these years! If you are looking for a coffee nearby, jubala (pendo), black & white (videri), heirloom are all great options (and sir Walter coffee and 42 & Lawrence are decent and close)
