What a great little find! On a freezing day outside of Raleigh, I stumbled upon this cozy little…read morecoffee shop! Trying to get a little work done, I was pleased to find a comfy couch, power and Wi-Fi- in addition to the incredible twist on a Mexican mocha and an absolutely insane bacon, egg, and cheese on there in house made biscuit! Greeted by the friendliest barista, I made myself comfy on the couch and watched her work her magic. My " not too sweet" mocha had beautiful latte art. I was actually a little sad as I reached the bottom of the mug. So I opted for a decaf refill, it was pure perfection. Do yourself a favor & pop in to make this place your morning ritual.

The morning ritual is not it's own restaurant, it's essentially the breakfast and brunch menu of…read morethe restaurant "The Goat". The menu isn't broad, only a few options, which I was disappointed with. The staff was pretty decent, they forgot a few things, like a lemon for water when requested, a spoon for my yogurt. We ordered a burrito, the biscuit and eggs and the yogurt. Honestly, I was shocked at how good it was. Burrito had great flavor and was super filling. The biscuits were incredible! They were super crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The jam it came with was also delicious. Overall, it was a weird restaurant set up and staff was iffy but the food was quite good! I likely won't go back because the menu is so limited but if you're in the area, it wouldn't hurt to stop by!

I tried the turkey and brie sandwich and it was absolutely delicious and the food came out super fast. They are closed on weekends and only open on weekdays until 2:30pm. I do wish they had longer hours so I could bring more people to experience it. I love everything about this cafe and can't recommend it enough. Spacious, welcoming, and serving amazing food. Fare & Fellow is definitely worth a visit!

It's super spacious, with tons of natural light, high ceilings, and both indoor and outdoor seating. The outside patio has cushy lounge seats, perfect for soaking up sunshine (though it's right by the highway, so some outdoor spots come with a bit of traffic noise during rush hours). This place is a dream for remote work. Every table is so spread out (esp outdoor) that you don't overhear other conversations, no loud music, and sunlight streaming in from every corner. Service was quick and thoughtfully accommodating. I appreciated that they bring food in a to-go container if you're sitting outside, so you're not stuck carrying plates back. And bonus points for their commitment to using sustainable packaging. The coffee was quite delicious! Jubala Coffee actually makes a type of specialty beans roasted just for F&F. Their drink menu is on the simpler side, but they usually have a couple of seasonal lattes, and everything I tried tasted great. Food-wise, it's a gem: generous portions, very reasonably priced, and flavorful. It reminded me a bit of Fount Kitchen in its "organic, healthy" vibe, but with more non-vegetarian options and even better flavor. There's plenty of parking right out front, but sadly they close at 2:30pm, so it's more of a morning or lunch spot. All in all, a wonderful place for a morning work sesh or a work lunch in style!

We stopped in looking for some nice coffee. The black sesame latte was great and had a nice balance.read more

The yogurt was a large portion and was very good. Coffee was a little strong and bitter, probably designed to have additives rather than being drank black. Pairing with the yogurt made it taste a lot better though. Service was friendly and the prices were reasonable. It was a bit noisy inside, just because there were a lot of customers and everyone was talking. The store is clean and bright with a neat little riser on one side. My only complaint was that there were no refills. That's unusual for black, drip coffee.

This place radiates "good morning" from the delightful lady at the counter to the fun music. I had the heels up acai bowl and could not be more thrilled. It was delicious, filling, and had the best textures. I was happy to have a lighter breakfast option that kept me full all day. I don't live in the area so I don't know the next time I'll be here. But I will let all of my NC friends know this is a great spot to spend the morning at!

Highly recommend!

I came here with my friends and their kids, and they were completely occupied with their toys. The staff here are so friendly and very patient- gave great recommendations, also engaged with my friend's toddler, and also were so patient when we couldn't make up our mind for which drinks we wanted (they have some really unique specialty drinks- don't forget to look below the big menu for even more options). I really loved their cafe/bookstore vibe, plenty of fun little Knick knacks as well (pins, stickers, locally hand crafted toddler toys, origami rose bouquets... you name it). The books are well-organized, and if you buy certain books you can also get a free drink! I loved everything about this place, very cozy vibe and really fell in love with their space. I was recommended to try their iced peanut butter persuasion which also had a peanut butter foam on top. Absolutely loved it- amazing recommendation. Y'all have to come by to check it out!

Middle of a Sunday afternoon and every table was occupied. Very young crowd too. I guess the cool kids who avoid Starbucks hit this place up. They have several bookshelves to select a book from. The cafe beverage menu is quite extensive and they offer a few pastries as well. I ordered an iced chai with oatmilk and I had it within two minutes. That staff works quickly. I can't say it was a great drink, the spices weren't too noticeable. It tasted more like a cup of slightly flavored milk. Staff was quite jovial, so props for that.

The flat white was fantastic, and I could tell the specialist in coffee beans, so I bought some for home as well. The staff greeted several customers by name and exchanged inside jokes. With the great food, coffee, and general vibes, I can see why so many people are regulars here.

For drinks you can choose from coffee, tea, matcha, milkshakes, or smoothies. For food, you can choose from bagels, waffles, oatmeal, yogurt, or pastries. I enjoyed the sunshine hunter bagel and the e sunshine daydream smoothie. My smoothie was delicious and made fresh, but that bagel was everything! The staff was Beth friendly and helpful as it was my first time there. I'd absolutely return in the future.

I had the Italian Panini with avocado (the avocado is an extra charge), and it was absolutely delicious. I also tried the La Poire dessert, and it was so good. It wasn't overly sweet or too rich, just very natural and perfectly balanced. We came on a Friday around 1 PM and even though there were about 10 people ahead of us, the line moved smoothly and there was plenty of seating both inside and outside. The customer service was top notch, and the staff was very welcoming. We'll definitely be visiting again.

I think this was an Italian bakery...and it had a truly sensational selection of pastry items, some which were quite arty and unique!! They were also somewhat pricey...but I wanted to try so many. I ended up trying this dessert called "The Fun Guy". It looked like a Mushroom, but inside, it was just heavenly bliss! (I included a pic with all the ingredients inside) Truly, it ranks as one of the best desserts I've had in a LONG time. That's saying a lot, given how I go to bakeries a LOT! I will say, however, that their Iced Latte, wasn't that great. Still, for the bakery selection, I'll be happy to return here any day!
