    I stumbled upon this fantastic cheese maker on a Saturday at the Western Wake Farmer's Market. You…read morecan sample the creamy goat cheese with a cracker. I have had the rosemary and honey goat cheese and it is such a rich spread for bread. I also highly recommend the cow blue cheese and it pairs perfectly with red wine and fig spread. The cheese is sold by weight and you will spend about $5-$8 per serving. Last weekend the husband of the cheese maker was selling the cheese and he was hilarious. Definitely check them out while at the WWFM.

When my parents from Napa Valley CA came to visit they were completely blown away at how incredibly decadent, mouth watering and FANTASTIC the Hillsborough Cheese Company Cheeses were. I purchased 4 different types for them to savor and while they loved them ALL they completely loved & devoured the Camembert. So quickly so, that I had to return the next day to Weaver Street Market (where they sell it among a few other places) and buy some more. I cannot say enough about how this fabulous and smart small cheese company TRULY KNOWS THEIR STUFF!! Way to go Hillsborough Cheese Co. and thank you so much. I am a fan for life!

    This is as good as it gets. Their Hickory Grove is my favorite cheese of all time and one of my top…read more10 favorite foods ever. They did have a little salmonella scare 2 years ago but so do a lot of people. Also they caught it very quickly and addressed everything. This tastes so good it makes me proud to be a North Carolinian/American. I usually can't digest cheese but I actually tolerate Chapel Hill Creamery Cheese pretty decently. Their cheese has different proteins than most store bought cheese so it's actually easier to digest. I could go on about the taste but just having a local cheese maker who makes original quality cheeses is awesome. Chapel Hill Creamery captures all of the sunshine and bliss and southern charm of Chapel Hill in their cheeses. I love going to different farmers markets and finding CHC cheese.

Fresh Mozzarella -- you can snag a bag for $6 (super creamy and clean -- not the "salty" version you're used to from un-fresh mozzarella). Super yummy in a BLT! Carolina Moon -- super creamy, buttery, and sticky wheel of brie cheese ($11). Has a mushroom-y flavor and is perfect paired with jam or a glass of red wine! Perfect for wine + cheese date-night. Whey-fed Pork Ribs -- can't remember the price ($15?), but they were absolutely delicious!! Cannot wait to try the rest of their cheese and pork selection!

    I don't know how I've never eater at Parker and Otis before, man I've been missing out!!…read more I was the first in line on a lovely Saturday afternoon, but wow that quickly changed. By the time I placed my order, at least 10 other people had come in. Since it was my first time, I asked for suggestions, Randy was so helpful. I was so hungry and everything sounded really good. I ordered the Shrimp BLT, a Fluffernutter Latte and a Ham & Cheese Croissant (for breakfast tomorrow). Oh my stars, the Shrimp BLT was pure perfection, every bite. The coffee was so good. There's plenty of seating inside and outside! It's super cute inside. The store part has all the cutest and neatest stuff and the food part has so many options. They even have grab and go items. They serve breakfast until 2:30. I'm already planning my next visit!!! Shoutout to Brian for making sure I had a great experience as well!!

They have a huge variety of items--from home goods and specialty foods to books, toys, kitchen items, and unique gifts. If you're specifically looking for locally made Durham souvenirs, there aren't a ton of local artisan items, but there are still some fun Durham-themed finds. I picked up an adorable "Meet Me in Durham" sticker that made the perfect keepsake from my summer here. Definitely worth stopping in if you're downtown and have some time to explore. Plan for a crowd on Saturday mornings, but it's part of the lively atmosphere!

    So glad I found this spot. After reading the reviews, I knew I would get my money's worth and the…read moreingredients were fresh. First of all, the bread is soft and has a nice bite, holds the juices of a sandwich well and was fresh. I got the Cobble Hill sandwich and the turkey was really good. Also the size is amazing for the price. When you get there, it feels like you're in the wrong place or entering in the wrong way, but you're not. I asked if this was the sandwich spot and a young man took my order and made my sandwich within 5 min. And there is enough parking behind the State Farm building to pull up and get your sandwich I can't wait to go back and try the Italian and cheesesteak sandwiches.

    "Great deli-style sandwiches, from rather hidden location on Chapel Hill Rd"…read more Came by here on a Saturday. This place is REALLY hard to find... it's behind the State Farm building, but there's barely any signage from the street. (Note: some photos here in Yelp seem to be from an older location.) We actually came one Saturday, but it was unexpectedly closed, but we caught them the following one, so good to call and confirm before driving over. You walk up to a door on the back, and scan a QR code to see the menu. Then knock on/ open the door and someone will come to take your order. Then you wait outside and they bring you your sandwiches. The lady who took our order was very friendly. The kitchen was rather large, so I suspect it's used for more than just this business. We ordered two turkey subs-- the East New York (which was slightly spicy) and the Dumbo. Wait time was maybe 7-10 minutes or so. Both sandwiches came nicely wrapped, and I think total cost was a little over $20. And conveniently, they take Apple Pay. These were not your Subway or Quiznos sandwiches-- these were DELICIOUS pressed sandwiches (we got them on focaccia. I personally liked the Dumbo the best-- it had a nice mix of flavors that meshed well. The East New York was solid and had a nice spiciness, but not quite as exciting overall. Would I come back? Probably, but since there's no seating, and it's a bit awkward, maybe not the first place I'd think to try, but again, the sandwiches were REALLY good. I do think it may be excellent for catering or for getting picnic sandwiches though.
