Quarter Note Coffee

V 2 months ago

A tad overpriced for what you get with the food itself, but a lovely atmosphere and aesthetic, definitely recommend enjoying inside their venue. All these items were ordered in-person togo: The overnight oats had the freshest blueberries ever, and the oats had a consistent consistency, chewy in the best way. They are not sweetened (though you can request some honey for just 25 cents), glad to have such a fresh and healthy breakfast option. Yogurt and housemade granola are always a fantastic pairing, but especially here, they know what they’re doing. Big, crunchy granola pieces atop a semi-sweet, creamy yogurt. I added on blueberries, because they were so good with the oats. The cinnamon bun is godly, can’t go wrong with it in any way, unless you’re watching your weight. An easy contender for best cinnamon bun I’ve ever had. Avocado toast is an interesting concept with gochujang sauce and cotija cheese. All the ingredients including the bread are fresh and arranged with care. It wasn’t my favorite, but it was still good and worth trying. Different palates might enjoy it a lot more than mine. (I say all this as my mouth still waters thinking about it…) The sausage, egg, and cheese English muffin just didn’t hit the spot, the muffin was chewy and had a cardboard taste, and sausage was honestly not much better than fast food. I don’t see it on the online menu as of writing this review, so it might’ve been taken off. Hopefully they can add a meat breakfast option back that is up to par with the rest of their menu. I have not been able to try their single origin coffee since it was out of stock, and the availability of various items can fluctuate based on whether they’ve ordered all the ingredients, and if they’ve ripened enough (e.g. avocado, banana). This guarantees the quality of everything they serve, which I appreciate, but some may be disappointed by the lack of consistency, so be aware if this is you. Not a place you can go for food with specific expectations. Great place to get some work done, quiet atmosphere, most people are alone working on laptops.

A bright, cozy café with a relaxing vibe. The Korean Sweet Pancake Latte was unique and delicious—nutty, warm, and perfectly balanced. Great latte, friendly service, and free parking nearby. A spot I’d definitely come back to.

I needed a quick pick me up and wandered in to give Quarter Note a try. Sydney was super helpful with explaining the seasonal coffee flavors and making suggestions. I am not very big on the flavor of coffee but she blended my latte to perfection! When I saw the beautiful coffee art that she added to my cup, it brought me so much joy and brightened my day. I could tell that she put her love and passion into my cup and I will definitely be back again. I don't know what she makes as a barista but whatever it is, she deserves even more! The service was priceless! This was my first time in and I'm already looking forward to the next.

Coffee!!! ☕☕☕ That 24 hrs of not having one teeny drop of caffeine is for the 🦅 🦜 🦉 Anyhoo, found this pretty sweet coffee house here in Raleigh. Lots of nooks and crannies to sit and sip a cuppa o'java. The flatwhite was my kind of strong.
