Stopped by Brew Coffee Bar while working in Cary and it turned out to be a great, convenient find. There's plenty of parking in the shopping center, which makes getting in and out easy. When you walk inside, you're greeted by a large, open space with a clean, minimalist design that feels modern without being cold. The menu is where this place stands out. There are a lot of fun choices, including several unique options you don't see at most coffee spots, which makes it worth exploring beyond your usual order. I kept it simple and went with a red eye, and it delivered--good, solid coffee with the extra kick you want when you're in the middle of a workday. Overall, a convenient stop with a cool atmosphere and a menu that brings something a little different to the table. Definitely a good spot to keep in mind if you're in the Cary area. read more

The espresso tasted sour. It was also lukewarm. I think it was just sitting there before she handed it to me. The pimento sandwich barely had any pimento on it. Was 90% bread. Also, very expensive given what you get. Really bummed because the reviews looked good. read more

BREW Coffee Bar - McNeill Point - Avocado toast and cortado - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Raleigh, North Carolina

We came here looking to try a new coffee place, unfortunately Brew is just OK. The size of the coffee they give you is TINY!! Look at my boyfriend's hand for comparison. It's about 4 sips for $5. Pretty disappointing as they only offer one size. We had the avocado toast which was good, but, for $11 it's not quite worth the price. We spent almost $40 here for the two of us (2 drinks and 2 avocado toasts) and it is NOT worth the price point. Bigger sizes are definitely needed for the coffees. Overall, nothing special. read more

BREW Coffee Bar - McNeill Point - Caramel latte & iced matcha - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Raleigh, North Carolina

Finally a coffee bar in Raleigh that the hubs and I can truly rally behind. Truthfully, I been struggling to love the coffee beans and brews in Raleigh, but BREW Coffee Bar didn't give me the "it'll do" effect that I've been experiencing as of late. Lately, the coffee scene for me has been not bad, not great, just a tad bit better than average-- but not worth a return visit. I was beginning to think I'd maxed myself out so-to-speak. We've just been coffee bar crawling hoping to hit it big at some point. Well, I'm pleased to report that I loved my honey lavender latte at BREW, and the hubs commented favorably on his iced mocha as well. We also appreciate the abundance of plant life and the aesthetic at BREW. True story-- We took our first sips and gave simultaneous nods of approval. Finally, I have a "favorite coffee thus far in Raleigh" winner. Cheers! read more

good experience here! There is inside and outside seating, plenty of free parking in the lot, and free wifi. They have a handful of food options, and coffee was good! Got a iced caramel latte for around $6.30 read more

I mean this might be the most mid coffee I've ever had. I make coffee so much better than this. Not to mention $8 for a sippy cup? Like cmon a mini 14oz for 8 bucks? You can't even bless me with a 16oz? It's so small that I doubt it has any caffeine honestly. The service was okay. That is the only reason it's getting more than 1 star. If you're looking for a bad coffee run on a beautiful morning, go here. Will not be coming back. Enough said. read more

Best coffee shop and staff in Raleigh. Great service and espresso presentation. The chocolate banana muffin thingy Is so so so good

Every time we stop here we are treated so kindly and efficiently. Great espresso tonic and my husband really likes their iced vanilla latte! Great open space off a busy road but you would never know it. read more

BREW was ok! And definitely worth a visit, if you like the energy you observe in the photos from Yelp. All very accurate! The cafe is low key and has a pretty good menu. The volume is low and the place is generally pretty clean, with some coffee shop crumbs! I had a regular latte and tasted my friend's dirty chai. Both were ok! My honest opinion is that I've had better but if I were in the neighborhood, I'd stop by to give the drinks another chance. However.. The drinks didn't score BREW -1 star. The service was the ick factor. As someone who frequents coffee shops and gets really excited about good coffee and experiences, I appreciate all types of cafes and personalities. My review has everything to do with delivery and attitude. It's a good thing there were two workers when we visited because one was cold, inattentive, and would've earned 2-3 stars max. The other, quite the redeemer, was warm and made sure we enjoyed our drinks and visit. read more

Mixed feelings about BREW - let's sort it out. First and foremost, the service was 5 stars. I asked the barista about the seasonal strawberry syrup they had listed. He was super helpful in making suggestions on what I may like and how to incorporate it. We decided on an iced latte with strawberry and white chocolate. He asked me what level of sweetness I liked as well, and I said middle of the road would be good. He was super kind and I really appreciated his willingness to make solid suggestions and he was just overall very pleasant! After looking through the photos, it seems like the iced lattes that were ordered to enjoy at the store are maybe bigger than the to-go option. I don't think I was asked what size I wanted... but this was the tiniest coffee I've ever seen. After all the ice, I feel like it was less than 8 ounces. I drank the whole thing before I was out of the parking lot. It was still like $7 or $8, with the oat milk swap which I felt like was CRAZY for a tiny coffee. I normally go for like a 20 oz and the price point is usually around what I paid for this. I ended up stopping to get another coffee somewhere else because it just wasn't enough. The espresso in the coffee had a very nice flavor, but I wish I could've tasted the flavor more. Maybe there was less syrup since I said I preferred it not super sweet, but I really wanted to taste the strawberry and it just wasn't there. It's a really nice ambiance and the service was nice, but I don't know that I'd make it a point to come back. I would like to give more stars since the service was really good, but the taste and value just don't warrant it unfortunately. read more

I went to Brew on a Sunday afternoon to study for school. I ordered hot tea and a bagel. After about 30 minutes of ridiculously loud rock music I asked the girl behind the counter if she could turn it down. She acted completely annoyed and simply walked away. She did turn it down but for less than 5 minutes. It was turned up seemingly even louder. She was rude. I will not return to this coffee shop. read more

Brew's Raleigh location is bright and minimalistic with lots of seating. Our drink took a bit to come out even though the cafe was pretty empty. We ordered an Iced Vanilla Latte, which was watered down and mainly tasted like syrup. We enjoyed Brew's atmosphere but didn't feel that their coffee lived up to our expectations. read more

BREW Coffee Bar - McNeill Point - Iced Vanilla Latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Raleigh, North Carolina

This was my first time at this location. It seems McNeill Point is crowded no matter what time of day it is (9:30 a.m.), but I found a parking spot a ways down. The inside is open, bright and inviting with a good number of seats. The barista greeted me when I approached the counter and answered some questions I had. Since I'd already had cold brew that morning I went with the watermelon mint spritzer. They steep fresh watermelon to make the syrup. It didn't have too much mint flavor, but was still refreshing. Needing to do some work, I grabbed a table by the windows and looked like there were power outlets available at most, fortunately. The only issue I had was that it was freezing! I had goosebumps the entire time. There was a steady stream of people for most of the time I was there, but it seemed to be slowing down a little when I left close to noon. read more

Why is it so hard to find good coffee? So many coffee places have great food and crappy coffee, which always seems backwards to me. I know it may sound strange, but I go to a single origin coffee establishment for the coffee, the food is just an added plus to me. BREW coffee gets it! I ordered an Ethiopian pour over and one drink in I was already thinking, I need to remember this place. The coffee is amazing, I drink it black and it has a natural sweetness, some fruity notes, especially strawberry. So if you are looking for good coffee when you go to a coffee place - you won't be sorry if you go here! Nice and clean inside, plenty of seating and the guy that helped me seemed very nice. 5 stars is nice, but my ultimate review is this, I will come back here when I am in the Raleigh area, for coffee!!! read more

If I lived in Raleigh, I'd work from BREW as much as possible! The interior is clean and airy, and there are plenty of tables inside. The iced caramel latte I ordered was perfectly balanced - not too sweet, and the coffee flavor came through strong. You'll find your typical coffee shop drinks here - nothing frilly or over the top - as well as light bites, such as sandwiches, cookies and muffins. read more

Just ordered latte and bagel. When using card to pay, the cashier went ahead and added their own tip before I paid. I could see she was taking her time before flipping the screen for my signature. I was really tempted to not tip as a result and say something but held off. Not good form. Don't do that. Don't like feeling like being played just to get a cup of coffee. Coffee is fine and seems like good place to hang out otherwise. Not to mention that entering an unauthorized charge on someone else's debit card is theft. Not really worth it for just $2.10. read more

Stopped in to kill some time while I waited for my dog to get groomed. It was my first time at this location and as soon as I opened the door I could hear smooth jazz blaring through the speakers and the smell of fresh coffee! Nothing like it! I ordered a small drip coffee, of course with oatmilk and a cinammon roll. The atmosphere is open and bright which makes for a chill space to get work done or even just zone out to escape reality for a bit. My coffee was delicious and HOT, just how I like it. The cinammon roll was tasty as it was flaky like a croissant and not too sweet, again, just like I like it. The staff were friendly and helpful. So happy I stopped in, will definitely be back read more

This BREW is clearly still settling in to their spot as there are no decorations on the walls making for a bit of an echo. I have no doubt that will be resolved. In the meanwhile, how's the coffee? Excellent. I ordered a cortado and it was prepared perfectly. A lovely deep shot of coffee, steamed (but not foamed) milk and I got my caffeine boost for the day.

I was looking for a place where I can just sit and have coffee and do some work on a weekend. I stumbled into BREW and it was just a perfect spot! The latte was pretty large and tasty, the space was opened, and it was very nice! I went around 2pm on a Saturday and it was not as packed but around 4 when I left it got a little more busy. Definitely would encourage others to visit and will absolutely be back! read more

Had to write a quick review bc this place slaps. Nice vibes walking in. I think there's a cat that frequently visits bc one of the baristas went out to pet a cat that looked like it was here for its daily rubs. Lovely. The guy with braids and glasses who took our order just absolutely radiates kindness. A real cool cat. Love him. He whipped up an absolutely divine hot vanilla latte and hot peppermint mocha. Like fuckin a that shit was splendid. They really know how to BREW here man. read more

I was so happy when I heard BREW was opening on this side of town. The Midtown area really only has two Starbucks that are super close by. I'm happy that BREW came in to switch things up. I was suprised by their interior, it is very bright, white, and modern. Not as cozy as their location in Seaboard Station. They are locked right on the corner across from Simple Greek, they don't have a sign up yet so unless you are looking for them you won't see them. The baristas were very friendly! I didn't see a food menu, but I may have just missed it. I really hope they carry their peanut butter granola parfait like at Seaboard Station. I ordered an iced chai and it was really good. No gross waterdown tea here, the spices were strong, and overall the drink was flavorful. Parking is easy! I look forward to heading in many more times! read more

This modern coffee shop is a great addition to the area! They're coffee is pretty good--nothing notably special about it, but a fun place to try out. They do something called the Brew Mug Club which is unique, and they also sell Big Spoon, tea, coffee, and other things. They also provide books for you to read and you can trade in books as well. A shwae concept. read more

STEAMING TURD As we approached we could see through the window that NONE of the 10 customers were wearing masks. Noting that, and the mask sign on the window, we left ours in the car. Walked up to the counter to order and the girl feigned shock and shrieked, "Would you mind putting a mask on?!?" I said, "No one in here is wearing masks." "I KNOW, but you're required to when ordering." I said, "OK, we'll leave then." The girl giggled... Of the people in the establishment maybe 3 had coffee in front of them. Most were busily pecking on tablets or laptops. Add to that the questionable practice of serve yourself water carafes right next to used cups and dishes (and in the midst of all the unmasked customers). Makes no sense at all. read more

My son and I went for some one on one time together before I leave the country. This was a great choice! 5 stars even though all I had was a latte. The staff were friendly, coffee, latte was very good. And the atmosphere was bright and clean. I will go again for sure and try more of their items. read more

Great place, would recommend. I had a drip coffee, cortado, and a peanut butter bar. The drip coffee was meh, but let's be honest, drip coffee is never great. $1 refills though, so that's nice. Cortado was good. This place takes their espresso and pour overs seriously, so you won't be disappointed if you go that route. Decent selection of baked goods and other food as well. Aesthetically, the place is stunning. They're going for that ultra-modern everything-is-white look that a lot of places are doing, but it often feels stiff and industrial. BREW pulls it off while still being comfortable. Plenty of space to read alone, catch up with a friend, or work on your laptop for a while. read more

The baristas were so nice to my friends and I! Very helpful staff and the interior is very cute. The chairs are comfortable so it's a nice place to hang out for a bit. Has a quiet atmosphere. read more

Finally. A BREW nearby with ample parking and the same great service. I love their lattes and am excited this is right by my house and gym. It's CLEAN and OPEN and lovely. There isn't a lot of plug ins for laptops so I do wonder how they will handle the people who want to plug in and work. Perhaps that's not the intention for this location. The vibe is mid century modern style with a neutral color palette. It's well lit with natural light from the large glass walls. I hope they put some seating outside on the pavement to the left of the business. I could see it being a neighborhood hang out or an after work stop. Come check it out for yourself. You'll have no trouble parking, lots of menu choices, and friendly quick service. read more
