New World Cafe - Durham

I am probably going to be a regular here because I am obsessed with breakfast sandwiches and these hit the spot. They have multiple bread/bagel/english muffin/croissant options to put it on as well as condiments, meats, cheese, eggs, and vegetables. My go to breakfast toppings are avocado, egg, cheese, turkey sausage, and cream cheese so I'll probably have that in every bread variation they offer. Also, the breakfast sandwich is GOOD and FLAVORFUL. A lot of places put together a sandwich with no flavor, don't melt the cheese, cold, etc. This one was the opposite. I went two days in a row and will be back tomorrow since they're open every day until 3.The staff was friendly, the cafe is small and cute, and the food came out fast. They make a great coffee too. I got a vanilla matcha latte with oat milk and toffee syrup and it was fantastic. They also sell different types of boxes of teas and sell them individually for people to try too. The orange blossom caught my eye.At the register there is an assortment of pastries so I got a blueberry muffin because it looked so moist and pretty and it ended up being the best blueberry muffin I've ever had and my partner agreed. I love a perfect cafe and this was it.

We stumbled upon this place and wanted to try a local coffee shop. It's located next to Dram & Draught on the corner. Inside is modern with a few tables and chairs to sit down. It's clean inside which was good to see. The staff were friendly and got our orders correct. Prices for drinks are about typical, I had the fresh drip coffee. I ordered the medium and it felt like I ordered a large. We would come back in the future!

We had seen this location while driving by several times and finally decided to pop in for coffee on a Saturday. The interior is a little small and pretty basic. They offer items like breakfast, toast and acai bowls but we were only here for coffee this day. The staff was friendly and the coffee/chai drinks were fine. Unfortunately, I just don't see a big draw for us to come back unless we happen to be in the area. There are other coffee places downtown that are a little homier.

Great little place. Limited seating but quick and fresh meal service. Baristas weigh and measure every cup of drip coffee to order, loved seeing the automated pourer at work.

Amazing! I walked over during my hair appointment at Posh. This place has the best coffee and reasonably priced menu! The baristas are friendly, as well. I had an iced latte with vanilla, and it hit the spot! It was not watery or overly sweet! I think they use counter culture, since they sell the beans. But, I am not entirely sure! If you want an excellent espresso-based drink, come here. The only room for improvement is the ambiance is a bit bare! It could do with more decor!

Food: 4/5Can't speak to the food per say but I got the 16 oz açaí smoothie which I think is a great deal for only 7.50! Delicious fruity and sweet, would order again and add protein next time. It smelled amazing when I walked in here.Ambiance 3/5The outdoor seating is small but nice, would be great in the fall! The inside has 4 tables, only one of which that can fit more than two. Definitely a grab and go type of place.Service: 4/4They were kind and quick to take my order. I got a cappuccino and smoothie, yum!!

Came here in the morning to grab breakfast and catch up with a friend. This cafe has nice lighting, big open windows and it was a nice place to have a conversation (not too loud, not completely silent).I got the Vermont açaí bowl, which was packed full to the top of the container. I like that it came with a lid so I could take the extras back. Great flavor, not too sweet and very filling. It was also prepared quickly within minutes and assembled very neatly!Not sure if this will become a regular spot for me, but definitely worth checking out!

As a regular at the Raleigh location, I can confidently say this Durham location is just as good! We drove out here because the Raleigh location is currently undergoing a move - that's how much we love and prefer coffee from New World, and it was worth the drive. The location is spacious with plenty of outdoor seating to enjoy the nice weather too. It's not in the heart of downtown Durham, which I think is a plus.The staff is friendly and knows their coffee! We're creatures of habit and tend not to try new items on a menu, but we tried new beans per the recommendation of the barista, and it was delicious.

If you're in the area, you have to stop here. The coffee and the food is amazing! Cute interior and exterior. Knowledgeable and friendly staff. It looks like a small spot this coffee shop hit it out the park!

It's a new business so that's the only reason I gave 3 stars! No one said hello when we walked in. We were told when ordering that they "aren't like Starbucks" and can't add syrups to their traditional drinks. I didn't really appreciate the comment or the fact that once a traditional drink is made... they can't walk over to the syrups and add a few pumps. Both my wife and I didn't enjoy our breakfast sandwiches. Barely any cream cheese on mine and the only flavor was from the everything bagel. My wife didn't even eat hers because she said the chipotle Mayo wasn't good. The lattes we got were basic lattes. I hope they make improvements soon and add more ambiance because there are other really nice restaurants and bars in the area.
