Who doesn't enjoy visiting a local cafe while supporting a great cause?…read more Esteamed coffee is a non-profit coffee shop in downtown Cary. They provide meaningful jobs and social opportunities for adults with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities. The cafe sells coffee, tea, pastries, and locally crafted gifts. They have seasonal offerings, nearby parking, restrooms, and indoor and outdoor seating. Leashed dogs are allowed on the outdoor patio. We visited on a weekend morning. The cottage was bright, welcoming, and bustling. As we waited in line, an employee greeted us, presented the menu, and answered our questions. The walls around us were adorned in beautiful paintings. The line moved at a steady rate and soon we were enjoying our drinks and pastries at an indoor table. Overall, we had a positive experience here and recommend this cafe to others!

The vegetables were crisp, the chicken was perfectly cooked, and the spicy ranch dressing tied everything together with just the right amount of kick.

The café has a welcoming atmosphere, friendly service, and quality food that goes beyond just coffee. I'll definitely be back to try more of the menu. If you're looking for a fresh, satisfying lunch in Cary, this is a great spot!

Grabbed coffee and a few snacks here recently and had a good time…read more First, the parking lot was pretty darn busy but we did manage to find a spot. I was shocked at how long the line was (at 2 PM!) but I guess people love their Brecotea :) The array of pastries, both savory and sweet, was impressive. My wife and I got savory options this time around and they were decent, but everything was pretty unhealthy and my chicken curry roll was definitely cold in the middle. We also got lattes and they were really tasty. There's a good amount of seating throughout the restaurant and it's reasonably comfy. By the time we left around 5 PM, it was much less busy, so maybe hit up Brecotea around then if you're interested in a more chill experience. Overall, we enjoyed ourselves and would definitely come back, although I may stick to the sweet pastries next time.

Vietnamese Sub…read more Venue: medium sized place for sub/sandwich place. It's order - pay and you can seat yourself place. Food: tried Paris bahn mi in Orlando and decided to try here as well. Ordered grilled pork bahn mi and Thai green tea. My honest opinion, I've had better and worse. The meat portion inside the sub is good. However it is lacking in flavor within the meat marinate or the sauce inside the sub. So far the banh mi from pho Thien phat has the best bahn mi in Cary in my opinion. The Thai tea lacked in sugar and very strong tea. I typically order less sugar at boba shops but I did not here just wanting to taste the original flavor of the house, I was not impressed. Service: you order, pay and pick up your food. The lady from the kitchen brought the hot subs out for us which I thought it was very kind. Price: well- the price of food has two versions: cash price and credit card price. Sigh...

Bottom line: Even though the Chatham St La Farm Bakery location looks big, it actually provides a…read moresmall cafe experience to use with no dedicated inside seating (only outside seating). Small selection in comparison to Preston Corners location, but still good quality. Delicious bakery items as you would expect from La Farm and very friendly helpful staff encountered here. The Deets: I had the chance to go by this location of La Farm Bakery near downtown Cary on Chatham St a couple of times during the past holiday season. I had walked over first to see about getting some gift baskets shipped to friends for the holidays but found out upon entering that they only handle shipping at the Preston Corners/Cary Parkway location. I was surprised as this location had such a large footprint with being the size of a grocery store but most of that size is used for the actual baking/storage itself it appears. The bakery service/cafe at this location is pretty small but nice and clean, with the only sitting area only outside with no actual inside seating to enjoy any purchases. There is not a dedicated inside sit-down cafe experience here. The actual selections on the shelves available seem in less volume than say their Preston Corners location (on my second visit here I wound up going to Preston Corners again for the items I wanted for a holiday party I was to attend). The same, still delicious, baked items in their display case as well as coffee/beverages are available here and still as enjoyable which earns most of their four stars here. Luckily the second visit I made here was on a warmer day so the outside seating could be utilized if you wanted to eat there. Another reason for their four stars here is the great positive attitude and friendly demeanor of the staff here. Even though they could not help me with my shipping of gift baskets on the first visit when I inquired, I was offered coffee while I waited for my ride share to take me to the Preston Corners location and that was greatly appreciated. The small cafe at the downtown Cary of La Farm Bakery is a nice stop for bakery items and goodies but for more of the full "La Farm experience" for gifts etc. then you may want to start out at the Preston Corners/Cary Parkway location. I may have had more of a 3.5 star full experience here, they get to those 4 stars with the deliciousness of the La Farm baked goods and the friendly helpful staff I encountered.

Toppings are unlimited - what a refresher, because so many other places nickel and dime you.
