Food: 4.5 Location: 5…read moreInside/seating :5 Service: 5 Overall value: 4 My spouse and I came here for lunch as we were in the area, and it was recommended. I had the BLTA sandwich with french fries and Dijonaise on the side and my spouse had the sausage, egg, and cheese breakfast burrito with home fries. We also each got different sodas from the cooler area. The total for two lunch entrées and two canned sodas was about $40. I feel like this is pretty high relatively speaking for a sandwich and fries, and a breakfast burrito and home fries + two canned sodas, which is why I gave the overall value a four. However, the breakfast burrito, home fries, and regular fries were AMAZING. Probably one of the best breakfast burritos I have had in a really long time, and the home fries were crispy and well seasoned. The sandwich I had was pretty good, but nothing super special, and definitely not worth $16. I didn't particularly care for the Dijonnais, but that's just personal preference and glad I had it on the side. The restaurant itself has ample parking and is easy to find. It has a lot of seating, as well as lounge type seating for the breakfast/café crew and people who might be coming to do a little bit of work. You order at the front and they give you a number and bring the food out to your table. Everyone we interacted with was friendly and kind. The restaurant itself was clean. Overall, I would probably give this somewhere between a four and a five, but I do really love to support Local and I could tell this place probably makes a banging coffee drink and had delicious looking desserts, so I went with a 5. Unfortunately, we live between 35 and 40 minutes away, so we likely won't return, but if we find ourselves in that area of Chapel Hill, I would consider stopping in for another breakfast burrito!

My husband had essentially the BLT plus avocado and turkey and I think that was even better. Could do with some fries instead of chips though . Coconut cake was also delicious! Next time I'll have to try the pulled pork sandwich. I only wish they were open later. I can totally see myself enjoying a cozy soup and hot sandwich on a brisk fall evening with some live music under their string lights.

Merritt's is a place on my list (and my mother's) for a while, and now we have a chance to visit. We made small talk with the staff. They were thrilled to learn my mother bookmarked this place when she worked at UNC Hospitals some years ago. The staff treated us well. They call out orders by name, so listen closely for your name. It was too hot to eat outside, though I imagine their bamboo patio out back will be delightful to sit at in the cooler months. The inside tables along the window have a view out to the street. There's a display case featuring fresh made desserts and other sweets worth checking out. I loved the fresh tomato, lettuce, and crispy bacon on this sandwich. I'd enjoy coming back, though I think I'll take my sandwich home next time. BLTs are the specialty here, and they do a great job making them.

If you even look at their google photos- you can see how good the food looks there as well. It did not disappoint at all. I feel like you could get anything here and be happy with it.

The tacos are damn good, but don't sleep on the beans, rice, and guacamole -- everything is fresh and well done, and there's something for everyone. We came in with our kids, who were... not at their best , and the staff could not have been kinder or more understanding. That alone makes this a place I'd recommend to other families. They also have a 99% health rating, which shows in how clean and well-run the space is. If you're a family looking for a relaxed, genuinely welcoming spot with great food, this is one of those quiet gems that's easy to miss but absolutely worth supporting.

The staff was friendly and kind, and helped us get some pictures. The food, chicken and waffles, seemed like the perfect meal for my midwestern mother, the waffles were good but the chicken way over cooked, it was dark, dark brown, dry and difficult to chew. Three of us had the Burratta Bowls. The flavors were fabulous, the tater tots crispy and onions and peppers were sauté nicely. For a breakfast bowl I would have like more eggs in this dish, it felt like one egg on a bowl full of tater tots. My sister loved the yogurt and fruit bowl and my cousin devoured the eggs in hollandaise sauce. I loved my chai tea! And everyone else said the coffee was great.
