My partner always gets the sausage egg and cheese. I have had both, and both are AMAZING! The biscuits here are BEYOND EXCEPTIONAL! For lunch, the bacon cheeseburger with lettuce, tomato and mayo is amazing, but the regular cheese burger is just as great. Recently, they have started offering BBQ plates. Let me tell you, the Brunswick stew is ON POINT, and the BBQ is delicious. The hush puppies are great, as is the slaw. More importantly, the service is always both a delight, and stellar. From the owner behind the register, who always remembers our order, the fist bump, and the great attitude, to all those wonderful ladies preparing the food (and I mean wonderful, jovial, and go beyond the extra mile), this place is a hidden gem. Angie has become like one of our besties, and frankly, they are all great, but her attitude and fun loving self makes every trip there enjoyable! When it comes to ambiance, what you see is what you get. It is a service station grill, but it is always clean, tidy, and welcoming to customers. There is a lot of foot traffic, and always a busy pace in there. Based on the number of folks they are always serving in there, you can tell that others feel exactly as I do about the breakfast and lunch, and more importantly, the service. I do not think any of them in there meet a stranger. You must check this place out! It will certainly exceed your expectations - and did I mention... THOSE BISCUITS! OMG - now back to eating mine! NOM NOM NOM NOM!

My first go to is a chili and slaw dog and the price here is right. I got two for just over $3.00 and that's a deal in my book. I could have gotten it as a combo with fries and a drink, but just the dogs was fine by me. Their hot dogs are the red kind, the chili had a little bit of a bite so glad it wasn't smothered all over it, and the cole slaw was crunchy. All and all it was pretty good. The menu is varied from choices of breakfast items served from 6A-10:30A to lunch sandwiches, hot dogs, burgers, and sides like fries and such. Everything is made to order. The food comes up quick and the staff is ever ready to serve the customer. They've got a few booths inside along the window that were nice and clean. What more could you ask for?

What Trinity Food Mart has got going for it is being the only convenient store located…read moredowntown--specifically by the DIY district. Since I have family that live within a three minute walk to Trinity Food Mart, I have been there several times more then the average person. Trinity Food Mart is where it's at for wine and beer in a pinch, although prices are $2-$3 above most (for example, a six-pack of HopNosh will run $10.59 where you can usually find it for $8.99) but you really can't beat the convenience. So, if you're in a pinch for adult beverages and are headed into North Durham, Trinity Food Mart is the perfect place to stop. They also have milk, bread and the assortment of gas station snacks (although NO half & half!) They've also gotten rid of their 9th Street Bakery goods--so sad! According to the man on staff when I asked, 9th Street is selling to other companies now. So you won't be able to pick up a local cookie or muffin but you can still pick up a banana or a cliff bar!

Yes, the…read moreprices are a smidge high and yes they don't have everything you need, but still, it's always a wonderful stop to grab some essentials, and things you never know you needed. Like a fox candle! Ha! I love seeing how they have new vegetables and produce every now and then. Back in the day before the pandemic (and maybe they still have this?), they'd have nights where there was a select menu and you could have a weeknight meal for an affordable price. Kind of like Cafeteria food. They gave you coins to pay for it, and the turn out was always so robust. It was a really nice way to get the community together and also try dishes that you probably hadn't had in a while, or even ever. I remember those events, being the talk of the town. My friends would mark on their calendars that it was a "no-cook night" and to meet them there. Fun times. I've been meaning to sign up for their owners program, that is on my to-do list. By donating a certain amount to the co-op, you become a founding member and help support the co-op. It's a sweet way to be involved and invest in the Durham community. I also love the parking situation at the co-op, you are never fighting for a place to park, and the parking spots are not razor thin. At the front of the store, there is a grassy area with picnic benches, and I find it so inviting. People are having lunch dates there, sharing snacks, and just enjoying the weather. I will say though, the co-op is one of those places that I have to remember to go to. Now that I'm writing out all that I love about it, I will continue to keep it on my mind.

However, I will not stand for "Be back in 10 minutes" notes on the door in the middle of the day, especially when you really mean 20+ minutes. I understand that you sometimes have to leave unexpectedly, but don't undershoot the time in order to benefit your business: give your customers the respect they deserve by telling the truth so that they aren't stuck waiting outside for nothing like fools. If your store is no longer convenient (aka open during marked business hours), then I'll go elsewhere.

As you enter there is a sign that tells you to go look at the menu board, pick out your drink, and go back to the counter to order. I grabbed a diet coke, and ordered a Common Cobb. I was a bit surprise when my total came to $18, as my salad was only $14 but I guess I should have paid attention that my bottle of soda was over $3. How much are the fountain drinks, I wonder? I found us a table inside since it was a bit hot that day (there is also plenty of seating outside AND inside if you go downstairs). The table and floor were messy but someone quickly came to clean it for me. They called our names over the loudspeaker and my best friend went to go get our food. She got the MotherClucker. Our food was REALLY good. If you like Cobb salad, you will definitely like this one. The chicken was pan seared perfectly, the vinaigrette was perfectly tangy and the bleu cheese was especially excellent. My friend's chicken sandwich has SO MUCH chicken salad on it. Impressive. There was so many neat items to see in the place. The murals were great, there were some cute retail spaces, a coffee bar up front, a bar downstairs, and ice cream outside! Unfortunately my bestie and I had too much to talk about so we didn't check it out as much as I otherwise wood. I would definitely try this place again!
