Omie’s Coffee Shop and Roastery

I don't really drink coffee, but when I do I usually stop here. I enjoy talking to the staff, because they always make me feel heard. The service is fairly quick, but I probably slow em down because I yap. I did frequently get the espresso cola when it was in season(must try)! The space is always clean, I can always do some work on my laptop which is a plus. I'd give it three thumbs up if I had an extra hand! TL;DR: good coffee, nice people!

3.5 rounding up!I didn't have the best luck with my coffee stops on this visit to the triangle. I stopped in at Omie's on my way home, and it was kind of a mixed bag.The service was quite friendly, and I really liked the barista. The interior is interesting, but not a place you would really stop and hang out.I was really impressed with their creative seasonal menu. I immediately wanted to try the cherry cobbler latte. It was supposed to be a single origin espresso, cherry pie syrup, and a cherry on top for the iced variety. The to-go cups were cute and had a rounded bottom I'd never seen before. You could definitely taste the quality of the espresso... but other than that there really wasn't much flavor. I really wanted to taste the cherry flavor (which is also a flavor profile in this espresso) but I really couldn't detect it. It also did not have the cherry on top that it advertised. Not the end of the world, but it really would've been nice for the presentation, and I was kind of disappointed since it did advertise that it would be on there.Their specials menu was really creative and I'd love to try more, I'm hoping this was a fluke!

I've been here at least 6 times and gotten every different drink they have and it's been consistently amazing every time. It's a small space but has a couple of good little study tables and bench. The service has been fast and polite each time as well. I love coming here and getting a little sweet treat after exams. Parking is limited but just park next door at King's grocery store which is a pretty decent place with prices if you care to check it out. Also please keep in mind it's closed on Monday's!

This hidden gem provides a nice pick-me-up for the mornings and has a cozy, indoor seating if you wanted to get any work or studying done.There are different options for coffee beverages and a handful of options for pastries. It is not extensive as it is a small business but I'm glad they have something for everyone. I came really early in the morning so it was not very busy but my drink, The Mabel, came out promptly, with that extra espresso that I needed.If you're ever in North Durham and need a cozy place for coffee and chilling, come check out Omie's!

This coffee saved me on my long road trip from DC to Charlotte! It's in a perfect location right off the highway so I didn't have to add more than a few minutes to my trip. The staff was friendly and the cafe was clean as well as the bathroom! There's several seats to sit at if you wanted to work, study, or get school work done. The lighting was great and I loved all the plants around the cafe. I bought the vanilla iced latte which was tasty. The only negative part is there isn't enough parking spaces.

Here's a hidden little gem in North/East Durham. Wasn't sure this place existed until it populated on my Apple Maps. I was glad to see a coffee shop in this part of town. We came here and glad we did, it's really well decorated inside and makes you feel cozy. It's small with not a ton of inside seating but there is some. Seems like more customers were taking their drinks to go. The girl working here was sweet and accommodating. The Fall Menu looked really good, after getting the drinks I'd say the drinks need more pronounced flavor. Got the Brown Butter Pumpkin Pie Latte which has espresso. I couldn't taste any specific flavor, not even the espresso let alone the sugar. That's why I'm giving this place four stars and not five.Would I come back, absolutely. I'll probably try a fresh drip coffee next time.

I really enjoy visiting Omie's because it is in my neighborhood. My favorite part are the seasonal drinks and the pastries. My favorite seasonal drink was the Sweetheart latte and I am excited to see what the fall drinks will be! Highly recommend checking out the other businesses around like Don Becera and LA Superior when you're stopping by.

Cute little coffeeshop in North Durham! I got The Mabel iced (latte with burnt honey and lavender), which I enjoyed and had a good balance of both flavors. I also tried my friend's seasonal drink, the Cherry Cobbler iced, which could have been a little more heavy on the cherry. The place is pretty small, but we were still able to study comfortably for a good bit! Service was friendly. 7/10 would recommend!

Great coffee, and very unique recipes. Cute hidden gem in Durham. Service was great as well! 4/5 stars simply due to the size of the shop- it can get very crowded very easily and there aren't that many comfy seating options. I came on a Sunday morning fairly early, so I was able to enjoy some quieter time before it filled up. Most of the seats are hard benches or stools, and I was able to find a padded chair to sit in. I would certainly be more inclined to visit more often if they had comfy couches/chairs!

Off the beaten path in Durham coffee shop. I got their signature coffee which uses burnt honey, lavender, and espresso. A great combination I must say and great for a cold day. They also have some pastries and tea options as well. I tried one of the teas and almost tasted like a liquid jolly rancher. Overall great coffee and tea selection. Inside has 3 different areas. 1 area with seating and where you order, 1 section with just a couple seats, and the last area has a kids area and the Roastery space. The staff was kind and helpful in picking a drink. Prices are also fair. Overall, I definitely liked this place. Parking is very limited and something to think about as to whether you get your drink to go or have it there. Will definitely be back next time in Durham to try some of their seasonal drinks.
