    Eggs Benedict with hash browns
    Rebecca M.

    White Story Cafe is located in Downtown Wake Forest. It is located in the historic Wilkerson Building. The renovated building still has the cozy atmosphere and even some historic photos on the walls. Parking is on the street or in a nearby parking lot. White Story Cafe shares the dining area with the Burger Shop. I had not heard about this cafe opening but I happened to read a post on Nextdoor so decided to go check it out as I am always looking for new places to explore. I was immediately greeted when I entered the cafe. They have the menu on the wall behind the counter and actual menus too. They offer breakfast, sandwiches, salads, soups, desserts, coffee and tea. The menu had some photos and my eyes went to the Eggs Benedict so that is what I ordered, which I tend to order often. It came with a choice of Canadian bacon or ham. Then it came with a side of fruit, hashbrowns, grits, or salad. Somehow, I ended up with fruit and hashbrowns. I also ordered a Thai sweet tea. After you order at the counter, you are given a number and a tray. My Thai sweet tea was a little too sweet for me so I will try something else next time. The Eggs Benedict was great though. The eggs were cooked a little longer than I'd like as I prefer runny yolks with the Eggs Benedict. The English muffins were huge, the Canadian bacon generous. The hollandaise sauce was lighter than I had had in the past but still delicious. The cup of fruit was huge. The hash browns were diced. The staff was gracious and kept making sure I had everything I needed. They even brought out all sorts of condiments someone might want. I was looking forward to my next visit before I left and even checked out the menu so maybe I will order something else next time. However, that is hard for me when I find a dish I enjoy.

    I love this place. Great food! Great staff! Fabulous menu! Healthy drinks!! White Story also does catering !! Recently, my father passed and we wanted to have it catered at Bright Funeral Home. It was close to the holidays. Cherry and Apple , White Street Owners, were very supportive. She supplied an amazing food station with sandwiches, fruit , desserts. She also had a drink station with delicious coffee, tea, cocoa and juice. Our guests raved about it. Very professional!! White Story went the extra mile for us and will for you too!!

    Turkey veggie omelet with hash browns and toast
    Renardo R.

    The service was great!!! The food was delicious..the grits were so creamy.. We both got omelets; meat lovers with a side of bacon and turkey omelets with grits. Atmosphere was amazing.

    Cheesy grits

    Came here tonight for the first time and glad I did! I ordered the eggs Benedict with the turkey. Next time I'll try the Canadian bacon. It was just ok- but might be better with the bacon. THE GRITS HOWEVER OMG. Get them with cheese on top. Creamiest best grits I have had at a restaurant in a verrrrry long time. I'll be coming back even if it's just to get the grits.

    What a great surprise! I truly loved visiting this café! We had two sandwiches: turkey pesto and turkey brie! It's hard to say which one was the best one! Both were delicious.

    Great breakfast dishes, especially the waffles, egg and bacon or sausage combinations. The lunch menu is equally as good.

    I had such a wonderful experience at this tea café! Scheduling the tea party was incredibly easy. I…read morereached out via email and received a quick response, along with a list of sandwich options and the opportunity to share any dietary restrictions, which was a great touch. When we arrived, we were seated right away and asked to choose our tea flavor. I loved that each person gets their own full pot of tea. It made the experience feel extra special. The food was absolutely delicious! We started with a fresh salad, followed by a beautiful three tier tray filled with sandwiches and desserts. From the scones to the bonbons and mini cakes, everything was flavorful and thoughtfully prepared. The staff were incredibly attentive and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our visit. It truly felt like a full experience, not just a meal. If you are looking for something fun and a little different, I highly recommend trying the tea experience. And if that is not your thing, they also operate as a café where you can stop in and enjoy a treat without committing to the full tea service. Either way, it is definitely worth a visit!

    Met my friends fo an afternoon tea. WHAT AN AMAZING EXPERIENCE!! The staff were very personable…read moreand friendly. Service was impeccable. Food was delicious.

    I had a craving for a matcha latte and so I picked the nearest place in the area and this place…read moredidn't disappoint! I was a bit thrown off by the overhead sign that read "Oak Roasted Coffee", but looking below on the door I saw Summer Moon Coffee. I walked in and I wouldn't have pictured this place the way it was set up in my mind, it wasn't your average coffee shop. It was chic, stylish, and modern and gave home decor, which I loved. The guy that helped me with my order was very patient and pleasant as I asked him for his recommendation on how to order a semi sweet matcha latte. We landed on the "1/2 Moon Matcha latte" and it was perfect. Not too sweet but also not bitter. There was a good balance and the drink was made pretty quickly

    First, the location is great, plenty of parking. It's the perfect size, cozy yet spacious. There…read morewas a nice crowd of people when I arrived, but I wasn't in line too long. I asked a couple of questions about the pastries and then decided to order their seasonal Autumn Moon Latte w/ Oat Milk and a Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Muffin!!! While I waited, I sat in one of the very comfy big leather chairs near the front at the fireplace. There are several tables throughout as well. It was love at first sip!!! It literally tasted like a beautiful fall day. The muffin was so fresh and delicious. The service was great might I add. I'll definitely be back soon.
