One of my favorite weekend coffee shops I visit frequently. I usually get a lavendar latte or the foster street special which is consistently good! It's conveniently located by the Durham Food Hall and an easy spot to stop after the Durham Farmers Market on Saturdays. The shop is cute and has many outlets for those who want to get some work done, and there is also a quieter space off to the side.
Situated right by the Durham farmer's market, Foster Street is ideal for a pick-me-up before spending a morning wandering through vendor's stalls (or for a study spot if you come in on a quieter weekday.) I've found the more uniquely flavored drinks to be hit-or-miss, but they make a reliable iced vanilla latte. A special highlight is the service-- the baristas actually hand-deliver your drink to you!! Worth a stop if you're in the area.
Stopped in Foster Street Coffee after the Durham Farmers Market on a Saturday morning. While it was busy, they got my coffee out quickly. It seemed like a great spot to catch up on some work and grab a delicious coffee. They had multiple fun flavored lattes if you are into that kind of thing.
Hubby and I along with his brother stopped in for an afternoon iced coffee. I ordered a 16 oz honey iced coffee to share with hubby. We both enjoyed it. Not too sweet, good amount of ice, mild honey flavor. Fast and friendly service. The bathrooms were clean. Lots of WFH people hanging out in there. I liked the chill, laidback vibe of Foster Street Coffee. We would definitely stop in again.
This place is clean and modern. The chai I got was delicious. Service moved quickly considering how busy they were on a Saturday morning. Will be back next time I'm in the area.
