Cafe Carolina and Bakery

Nice place! Quick, easy, and great food! The broccoli quiche is oh so yummy! So many choices! Breakfast options and lunch choices.Didn't get a pic, we were hungry!Good coffee too!You order at the counter and seat yourself. They call your name to get the food. You do bus your table.Inside and outside seating.

I've been to Cafe Carolina for lunch a few times and I've always had a great experience. The salads are delicious, fresh, and well balanced. The tomato soup was delicious and my friend had the chili and said it was some of the best she's had. The service is always great; and the restaurant is clean. I love the new location, it's so spacious and inviting. This is a great lunch destination and one of my favs. The only downside is parking.

Met a friend for brunch. Got an apple basket pastry, and ham and cheddar sweet potato biscuits. So delicious! Very happy with the decision. I could not have imagined the taste of the biscuits.

Stopped by for lunch and grabbed a turkey sandwich with pretzels. I thought it tasted very fresh and yummy. All the veggies were super fresh. The whole-wheat bread was delicious with some real seeds in it-maybe they bake their bread in house(?). You get a choice of chips or pretzels. The bread also had avocado, mustard, and mayo. I like that they have nutritional information on their website too. The sandwich was filling and a nice option for lunch.

Cafe Carolina and Bakery is located in the Village District so there is ample parking. The restaurant has plenty of inside and outside seating. Ordering is down at the counter and you wait for your order at the other end of the counter.I ordered the strawberry waffle but expected more strawberries. But other than that it was ok. Those that ordered eggs were not happy with them as they were just reheated and not from cracked eggs. So I will not order anything with eggs on a return visit.

Great local spot for a classic breakfast! Came here on a Sunday morning and it was busy but we were able to get a table for 4 right away. We ordered at the counter and then picked up the food at the counter once it was ready. No wait staff, so a lot more casual. The food was good. I got a regular egg sandwich on a honey wheat bagel and it was good and filling. My friend ordered the ham and sweet potato biscuit which was delicious. Lots of breakfast options for whatever you are in the mood for! Also a great coffee bar and menu, if I lived in Raleigh I would definitely make this one of my go to spots! Casual, easy and delicious for a good price

I love this place! I'm sad the Cary location closed but so happy this one is still open so I can get those sweet sweet ham and cheddar sweet potato biscuits! These tasty morsels are so addictive and delicious! I'm also in love with the club sandwich and their soups here. Everything is perfect for warming the soul and helping you get through the day. If you're needing a soul warming soul, a delicious sandwich, or a tasty treat you've got to check out Cafe Carolina.

Busy busy on a Sunday, parking is always a nightmare in Cameron village on a weekend. I ordered the turkey avacado panini which was really good and had a chocolate pastry. The kid warmed up my pastry which was worth it, hot. This is a quaint spot. Food is delicious staff is nice. Just be aware of the parking here. There are also shops in the same plaza to go walk around to after.

This is a great restaurant, the food was excellent and there was a great variety of products offered. We went there with friends and the seating is laid out so you can carry on a conversation. I worked as an executive in the restaurant industry and I recognize well operating restaurants and highly recommend Cafe Carolina.

Is this an exercise to see how quickly you can ruin what used to be an institution in Raleigh? My first visit to the new location, I've not yet even eaten anything and I know I'll never return after coming here monthly for 20 years. Park in a parking garage, get on an elevator and then a sad dining room that is clearly a failed restaurant rather than a cafe. No where to plug in a laptop, a coffee bar that is 1/3 the size of the prior one. I have to assume there were reasons for this move (lease?) but it's sad that there is no way this Raleigh icon survives.
