    Chai latte
    Monica M.

    Nice coffee/breakfast cafe right off of 540. Service is usually friendly but the place gets pretty busy so if lines aren't your thing, maybe this isn't the place for you. The wait is usually worth it though. The food is fresh and yummy and the drinks are pretty good. They don't make the best chai latte but their coffee is on point.

    Solid hot mocha and hot latte last weekend with a friend here. Slow service and little seating but I enjoyed the ambiance and catching up with a friend!

    In the words of my wife when I asked her how the coffee was..... "FIRE". A cute place to come with friends with indoor and outdoor seating. We came in November and the temperature was still beautiful so we sat at an outside table. The service was extremely friendly and the coffee was well you saw what my wife said. Definitely come by sometime if you want a relaxing cup of coffee! Highly recommend the iced salted caramel latte myself!

    Flat white and AMAZING coffee cake

    What a fabulous find! Just spending the night in Raleigh and had a great sleep at the Delta by Marriott when I went searching for a morning coffee shop to do some laptop work. Recommended by other yelpers, Fount did not disappoint! The Customer Service was a true ray of sunshine, my flat white was absolutely perfect and I splurged and tried the coffee cake. Do so, you will not be disappointed! While the ambiance is bright open and airy, it is quite loud when busy. But that is a good thing I guess! Do yourself a favor and try this place!

    Fount be jump jump! Countertop PACKED, each table, PACKED, they even have people sitting on wooden benches on the wall. I don't know if this is what Mondays are like, or if it's everyday capacity. Come early if you want a seat because everyone was elbow to elbow. Cute, simple vibe though. I saw a bunch of people working on their laptops, but it would be too distracting for me to work here.

    Iced vanilla oat milk latte
    Lexi G.

    Loved the vibe of this place and the staff were so sweet! I like my coffee lighter in hue (creamier and sweeter!) so I probably won't get coffee here again. I had ordered an iced vanilla latte. And the food is really healthy whoa. I got a brownie and my husband couldn't even finish it because of the dates (I think that's what it was) in it. Breakfast toast was great! Eggs were fluffy and yummy. Bread was healthy bread. Probably not coming back for a while

    Yogurt Bowl
    Kim M.

    We stopped into Fount Coffee + Kitchen for breakfast and wow, what a hidden gem. I'm not a huge breakfast person--I'm usually the type that just nurses a coffee and silently judges early risers--but I ordered their yogurt bowl and I'm still thinking about it. It was a generous (and I mean generous) portion of plain Greek yogurt--none of that overly sweet vanilla nonsense. It came drizzled with honey, topped with bee pollen, their house-made granola (which needs to be sold by the bucket), and the juiciest blackberries I've ever seen outside of a Pinterest board. I fully intended to eat half... and then licked the bowl clean like a respectable adult. I also tried their seasonal Mango Pineapple smoothie and let me just say--chef's kiss. It was refreshing, tropical, and felt like vacation in a cup. The space was clean, airy, and had that "I'm doing something good for my body and my soul" vibe. We sat outside as it was a little too loud inside for us. The service was snappy. We had our drinks then our food way quicker than I expected considering how busy it was. I'll definitely be back. Fount is officially my new go-to for a feel-good, elevated breakfast that doesn't feel like a gut bomb. Highly recommend. Bring your appetite--and your best Instagram filter, because everything here is pretty.

    I stopped by Fount and let's just say I'll be back soon. Very soon! As I walked in the space was bustling with happy faces and the decor is cute. The service was amazing, she was kind and offered suggestions. I ordered the avocado smash and added chopped bacon. It was delicious! Full of flavor and they were generous with the toppings. The menu looked very appealing and I look forward to trying the buffalo cauliflower Caesar salad!

    Literally my fav place for coffee and a quick meal! Everything is high quality (love the açaí bowl, coffee, buffalo cauliflower salad, etc) and the staff is so friendly. I'm devastated about moving away from the area for a few reasons, and Fount is definitely towards the top of that list.

    Avocado smash with chicken
    Crystal G.

    SO glad I discovered Fount with some down time before the airport. Parking was easy, but my goodness the place was PACKED. Line moved quickly! I ordered the Acai bowl and avo toast with chicken- both were great! I wanted to try every coffee they had but settled on a flat white that was tasty. There's great energy in Fount! Looking forward to returning on my next visit to NC.

    Salted caramel latte
    Danielle C.

    Fount is located in the RTP-close to work, which makes coffee/lunch meet ups with the colleagues convenient. The staff is always friendly and offers helpful suggestions, and the cafe isn't too noisy for those looking to complete their work. The latte was probably the best salted caramel latte I've tasted and the latte leaf art was impressive!

    The fall menu is on point t ! Sweet potato waffle And mint matcha was remarkable ! Staff always SO helpful in making my selections !!!

    Latte (vanilla)  since it's vanilla flavored it's sweet
    Saloni V.

    Wow! Absolutely love this place. From their coffee to salads, everything is amazing!!! Staff members are extremely nice and attentive. The spot is perfect for folks that are either working from home or for students. It's cozy and cute. They have indoor and outdoor seating area and cool bleacher like spots with outlets to connect your electronics. Plenty of parking spots. All of their options are gluten free and according to their staff member everything is cooked in either olive or avocado oil. We tried their lattes, salad and toast with egg and bacon!!

    Bottom line: Purple & Pearl is a nicely decorated shop with many types of tea/milk/matcha type…read morebeverages. I enjoyed the strawberry lime tea here a lot with the minimum sweetness level. The croffle was good, I was a bit confused by the offered toppings however the whipped cream it originally has on it works well but has a very thick layer of it. I'd definitely come back for the strawberry lime tea in the future. The Deets: During a recent walk through the neighborhood, I noticed the newish Purple & Pearl and decided to pop in there. Purple & Pearl specializes in fruit tea/bubble tea/milk tea/matcha latte/Vietnamese coffee/fresh milk beverages with a few snacks in the form of croffles (waffle and croissant hybrid). Upon entering, this space is very nicely decorated with high aesthetic appeal. I looked over the menu and decided on getting the strawberry lime tea with a croffle to snack on there. I got the tea with the lowest available sweetness (sticker on it stated 25%, from the natural sweetness of the fruit it was explained to me as I did ask for no sweetness) and liked it a lot with a great taste as well as refreshing. Looking at the topping section of the menu under the snacks/croffle area, I saw custard and asked for that on my croffle. I was quickly informed, short version, that the custard was not actually available as a croffle topping so after the explanation I decided on going with the default topping which was a lot of whipped cream with powdered sugar. I did take off a majority (not all) of the whipped cream and powdered sugar and enjoyed the croffle itself as a nice snack (in the future I would ask for no powdered sugar). I would definitely visit Purple & Pearl again for a refreshing beverage, I enjoyed the strawberry lime tea choice very much.

The cranberry lemon muffin was absolutely perfect, so much flavor, so fresh & moist. The Salted Brown Butter Latte was the best. From the first sip to the last drop, I loved it. I sat on a small section of a very comfortable couch with pillows and all. I later sat out front on one of the benches. They also have a patio seating out back.

This particular morning, I knew I wanted to stop by Trader Joe's afterward, but they weren't open yet. So I pulled up the map looking for a coffee shop where I could get a little coworking done. Thousand Hills Coffee popped up, and it had been on my "need to try" list for a while. I also shot my buddy KH a quick text to see if he wanted to join me and catch up on our latest ultra running training shenanigans. Thankfully, he was game. I rolled in around 8:30 a.m. and managed to grab a decent parking spot. Worth mentioning because the coffee shop shares parking with the apartment complex next door, so I imagine spaces can disappear quickly. KW arrived a few minutes before me and had to park a bit farther away. Walking inside, I immediately liked the vibe. It feels modern but still cozy, almost like someone's really well-designed living room. There are several distinct seating areas, plenty of soft chairs, a long community table, and even bar seating overlooking the baristas. It struck a nice balance between coffee shop and comfortable workspace. Since I'd already knocked out my morning run, I was ready for a little breakfast. KH and I both ordered the cheese, Danish. It looked huge in the display case, though it shrank a bit once it made it onto the plate. That said, it was really flavorful and definitely worth ordering. I also grabbed a regular drip coffee, which was excellent. My timing was amusing because they had just finished the last pot and were brewing a fresh one, but honestly, getting a fresh cup probably worked out for the best. We grabbed chairs next to the long community table instead at the table since the morning sun was already heating things up. We spent a while catching up, talking running, races, and all the usual endurance athlete nonsense. After KH headed out, I relocated to the long table that was in the shade and spent another hour or so catching up on emails and getting a little work done. It turned out to be a great co-working spot with plenty of room to spread out without feeling like you were taking up space. One last shoutout to the staff, who were genuinely friendly and welcoming throughout my visit. Good coffee is one thing, but great people always make the experience better. Overall, I came away impressed. Somehow, they've been open for about two years, and I'm honestly not sure how they managed to stay off my radar for so long. Safe to say they'll be making it into my regular rotation whenever I need a good cup of coffee and a comfortable place to get some work done.
