A lot of outdoor seating, under canopies for protection from the sun .
Based on the large garage bay doors, this was a auto garage in a previous life.
When I was there, it seemed to be popular with what I assumed is the college crown.
Located off of Geer St in Durham, NC. Parking is available but limited, and close to the coffee shop.

Plenty of room while waiting for your coffee drink to be made. Relax, enjoy, and make yourself at home for a few minutes or a few hours.
A lot of outdoor seating, small inside seating area, but good chairs and tables.
