Staff is very sweet and attentive. Love the spacious space. Apart from their amazing coffee they have yummy menu items the light breakfast options are perfect and healthy, they also have delicious açaí bowls. Great place to study or work remote.I went back and got the delicious avocado toast it was AMAZING!!Vegetarian options: The avocado toast and açaí bowls are great for vegetarians.Parking: There is plenty of parking along the street or at police station across the street.Wheelchair accessibility: Plenty of room for a wheelchair and tables are at perfect height to pull up to

The good: the majik Mike smoothie was tasty. The Reuben was good. The not-so-good: the Reuben was skiiiimpy on meat and the classic avocado toast was a little bitter to me, especially in an area where it looked like all the spice was concentrated (darker green spot in the photos). The bad: the person at the counter said they'd bring our food out to us (sitting outside). We waited quite a while. After we saw other people had come and gone with food, we went in to find out about ours. Our food has been sitting on the counter waiting for us and had become a cold sandwich and toast and a melted smoothie. We would have waited to get it ourselves if they hadn't told us they'd bring it out to us

Premium-feel yet homey coffee shop / smoothie / light meal place in apex downtown. Some customers I see work here like it's a coffee shop, others dine in for riffs on avocado toast, varied kinds of paninis, smoothies or acai bowls. Staff were pleasant to speak with and offered recommendations and comparisons. Menu has solid enough variety to play their hits.Also, not that I normally check for this, but bathrooms have always seemed clean and everything again seemed sanitary (addressing other reviews I see).Will return!

First time here. I stopped in because I was in downtown apex and waiting for my car to be repaired and needed lunch and somewhere to work. Their pesto panini was the best panini I’ve ever had in my life. It was so delicious. It comes with delicious Carolina chips - the rosemary and garlic were so tasty! They have free water and free guest internet! I’ll be back! Oh and tons of seating inside and outside.

This is my favorite coffee shop and cafe! The staff and management are super sweet and accommodating. Every time I go in, I am greeted by name - and they even have my order memorized. I have also seen the same for others. This place really adds to the small town charm of Downtown Apex. Going there is the highlight of my morning - highly recommend!

I'd never been here before last week and now I've been here twice lol!This is a cool little spot right in the middle of downtown Apex. Both times I've been here have been on Sundays. It was easy to find a parking spot on the street both times.I came here last week because Google told me they had smoothies. When I looked at their menu, I was delighted to see they so serve Açaí! That's a win/win for me!The place itself is small, but there are plenty of seats inside as well as outside. They have a shop on the side that offers shirts, and other sundries.I ordered the PB and Jammin as well as the Conquer the Day smoothie. Both were fantastic! My son tried a bowl for the first time and he loved it!The bowls are pricey, but the portions are big. They fill the bowls up past the top, so I feel like you definitely get your moneys worth.All the staff members I met so far were great! I definitely recommend giving this place a try!

Holy cow. This is the go to spot for breakfast or lunch right here. I drive 25 minutes just to have breakfast here. The açaí bowl is so. freaking. good!!! The Nutella açaí bowl is so delicious. Huge portions. Lots of fresh fruit. I love that it’s really cold too. Paninis I’m not even kidding are some of the best sandwiches I’ve ever had. You gotta give this place a try!

LOVE this place. Friendly staff, great coffee, gorgeous space, and so many beautiful products that support good causes. I was so happy to see Causegear/Made By Free Women products!!ALSO, they didn’t have a cortado/Gibraltar on the menu, so I asked the barista about it and she was so sweet about making me one anyway. I walked her through the steps and she crushed it!! 🤤 so good!

Always hopping. You either have to come in early or prepare to wait. Today was 25 min so bring a book or sit outside to people watch .Btw, i highly recommend the tomato avocado toast. The minced garlic with the balsamic is a good combo. Topped it with hardboiled egg and it's a great after workout grub.

A cozy place to have a coffee, tea, or smoothie and quick bite or shop for unique items you won't find elsewhere. Each of their products has a mission it supports! I definitely suggest stopping by and checking it out. I had the campfire acai bowl and it was SO GOOD! I've also had a few of their baked goods and they are INCREDIBLE.

Cute little cafe and bistro in downtown Apex! We got coffees and an avocado toast - the avocado toast is a crazy value, $10 for 2 slices of bread and a thick layer of smashed avocado. The shop is very cute and is a nice location to grab a bite or do some remote work.Only three stars because WOW there's some bad hygiene practices happening. We watched 2 employees walk in the back door and immediately come in behind the counter and start working - no hand washing at all. One of them used the point of sale, which was being used by other baristas who were also making drinks and food. The other employee was making lots of food items.Additionally, the employee making food only switched gloves once or twice between multiple orders and touched her face multiple times while preparing orders.It also seems like one of the hot coffee carafes is weirdly close to the floor. It's not ON the floor? But it's on a lower level of a stainless steel table, meaning your coffee cup is about 3 inches off the ground (and the carafe spout is about 6 inches off the ground!) when it is being filled. It doesn't seem like a great practice.Even though the drinks are good and the food is a good value, poor hygiene practice is enough for me to not visit again.

I keep a running list of dirty chai lattes on my phone called “Chai Notes” in my quest to weed out the disappointing ones. I’m that person. Mission Market gets a (rare) 👍 👍 thumbs up for a very satisfying dirty chai (I got mine with almond milk).Service was friendly and efficient, the atmosphere was comfortable, and the portion size on their avocado toast was generous. I believe they emptied out a whole avocado for mine, and the juicy, sun-dried tomatoes were delicious with the balsamic and evoo drizzle. It was a bit messy to eat, but I was pleased with the quality, preparation and portion.

Their acai bowls are good! I'd say they're comparable to what I used to get in CA (where I used to live, there were acai bowl shops in almost every shopping center 🤣) .I am also a huge fan of goji berries and they happen to have that as a topping here. They also have a cute little gift shop inside with local crafts and gifts to browse through.No designated spots but parking has never been an issue for me!

I don’t know what happened to this place recently. I’ve been coming here a while and ever since they got new, prettier menu boards (from their hand written ones before) something else has changed besides the menu.For one thing, their avocado toast used to be amazing and delicious. It was high quality bakery style bread with a generous portion of avocado. Now it’s 2 lame pieces of store bought cardboard with a thin layer of guac on top…and for the same price!! Such a huge disappointment. I couldn’t believe it when it saw it. For being as pricey a shop as it is I just expect a little more. Will never order any of the avocado toast anymore. Don’t waste your money.They added a lot of options to their new menu which is fine except the quality of the rest seems to have dropped. Their service and staff seem slightly annoyed to have to be working there also. Lastly, this is less important, but holy cow are their chairs uncomfortable.Credit where credit is due; their coffee is so so good and their açaí bowls remain delicious.

This quaint little coffee shop lures me in every time I take a walk down Salem Street. The smell of yummy coffee and the friendly atmosphere is the perfect spot for any reason to get out of the house.

Amazing place with a great atmosphere and my lunch was delicious. This will become my new favorite work and get coffee/yummy eats spot. Excited to have in downtown Apex and you can tell the folks there have a passion for what they are doing.

I only just started working in downtown Apex and I'm so glad I walked by this place. Everything is so yummy here. I mostly get smoothies, avocado toasts, and coffee but I can't wait to try all the acai bowl options and the sandwiches. They have fun and different flavors to put in you coffee other than the boring vanilla, mocha or carmel. My favorite is lavender. The food takes a little long to get so maybe order online if you're in a hurry.Vegetarian options: Avocado toasts, acai bowls, and smoothiesDietary restrictions: Lots of veg and vegan options

Absolutely adored this place when I first moved to NC, but boy if it hasn't fallen hard since then.Used to be managed by a lovely woman and you always felt welcome, coffee was consistently on point and baristas knew their stuff. At some point we noticed the management very clearly changed hands, and the staff started to turn over way more often with whispers of displeasure with the new management pushing away quality workers.The last two times I've gone there the coffee has been a major disappointment compared to what it used to be. Baristas obviously not well trained and bar flow/technique was a mess. I'm sure the owner will respond about how everyone is well trained but my wife was an espresso barista for 10years and we can both spot poor process a mile away, and results don't lie.I have thrown away the last two espresso drinks I've ordered and gone to Fount instead. Really pains me to write this because I LOVED THIS PLACE and had to get through several phases of denial before accepting it's not worth going to anymore.Really hope they return to their past quality but I'm not holding my breath. :(

My cousin from LA was in town and wanted to take her out to a cool coffee shop in the area. Honestly, I had never been here but heard it was good. We both loved the atmosphere and the coffee was great. My cousin got a Acai bowl which she said was delicious.She has now gone back to LA but I still plan on stopping by when I am in town!
