Omie's Coffee Shop and Roastery

Omie’s is my favorite coffee shop to go to in Durham !! All of the staff are super friendly, their drinks are phenomenal and they always have great pastry options.

My go-to drink is an iced “mabel”, which is genuinely the BEST honey lavender latte you’ll EVER get in the Triangle!

They also have super creative seasonal drink offerings that are worth trying out 😊

Omie’s also uses locally sourced ingredients, roast their own coffee and are super involved in their community 🤍 plenty of parking, too. Go check them out!

From the moment we stepped into Omie’s Coffee Shop in Durham, NC, I knew I was in for a treat. This cafe exudes a warm and welcoming ambiance that makes you want to stay a while. The latte with oat milk Dana ordered was nothing short of fantastic, perfectly brewed with a rich flavor that coffee lovers will appreciate. My cappuccino was nothing less than perfect. It’s clear that Omie’s pays close attention to the quality of their offerings, as the bakery goods, including an exceptionally good cinnamon roll, seemed to be locally sourced or made in-house. The prices were also fantastic, adding to the overall positive experience.

What sets Omie’s apart, though, is its community connection. The cafe has a palpable focus on being community-centric, which is both refreshing and admirable. The owner, Izabella, was the embodiment of this spirit - very nice and attentively focused on our needs, enhancing the overall visit.

Initially, I reserved 5 stars for only the “OMG” level cafes, but reflecting on my experience, Omie’s truly deserves the full five stars. It’s a gem in Durham that serves not just great coffee and bakery items but also a sense of community and warmth. Highly recommended for anyone looking to enjoy a great cup of coffee in a place that feels like home.

Really good espresso and drip coffee! The best part for us was their toddler and kid play area right next to comfy seating in the roasting room. Other perks were definitely the thoughtful space and low waste system (reusable towels in bathroom, labeled compost/recycle/etc, self serve lids on cups), and the really tasty laminated croissant style pull-apart apple muffin. I’ll definitely be getting a bag of beans next time we come.

As someone who prefers and frequents small local businesses I’m so sad I haven’t noticed this place sooner. I had been going to Whisk and Rye but oh my word, this is next level delicious. I know this is my new go to cafe. Espresso is smooth, they offer oat milk (although there is an up charge), and have a station where you can add milks and simple syrup to make your drink perfect. I usually have to add milk or something to mine but I was amazed that I didn’t need to alter my latte. 10/10, would highly recommend. Hopefully they grow and can offer more options with food.

Great coffee shop. They have a wonderful space for sitting and enjoying your coffee. I have had countless conversations here. They also have wonderful seasonal menus. Not the biggest selection of pastries, so get there early!

The best coffee we've had in Durham. My husband and I really enjoy good coffee and typically are int he hunt for a good third wave coffee shop. Not only was their coffee flavorful but their latte's were as well. At the time they were making an excellent home made pumpkin syrup which if I remember correctly had browned butter within it. So so good. Addison, the owner, kindly welcomed us into her shop at the counter and calmly served us our drinks and treats. Not only do they make their drinks with skill, but they roast their own beans and have produces incredible flavor profiles. We purchased some bags of beans and it was well worth the price, even to the point that we have considered having them shipped to us.I also really appreciated that they used so many compostable produces and clearly had a focus on reducing waste. Thank you Omie's.

We have multiple kids and they have created a wonderful space for kids and parents to hang out, which was such a relief and help. I plan to go every time we are back in Durham and hope you give this place a try, it's well worth your time and money. They also have great spaces to sit and work or chat with a friend.

This place is a gem of the city that I hope you find.

This is my absolute favorite coffee shop in the area and I’ll tell you why. 1) The staff are always genuinely kind and lovely. 2) The shop has GREAT natural light and the temperature inside is always comfortable. 3) Their specialty drinks always hit the spot and are fairly priced. They also change it up with always providing the classics but having seasonal drinks that change monthly 4) It is a truly welcoming environment and they stand up for global and local causes.

Love it here! Omie's is such a sweet little community coffee shop. They have great drinks, strive to be zero waste, and have regular art pop ups! Such a lovely place with kind owners

I love the Mabel, which is a honey lavender latte, It is so good. BUT today I tried the orange Shortie (I cannot remember what they named it exactly) but it is absolutely one of the best coffee drinks that I’ve ever had in my life. The orange flavor mixed with the pink Himalayan sea salt it’s absolutely divine. If I could, I would drink it every single day. I’ve been wanting to try the Aphrodite, but it’s always sold out. Maybe one day!

Absolutely one of my favorite coffee shops in Durham. Not only is the coffee yummy, but the staff are so personable and the vibe is welcoming. I always feel like a million bucks after leaving Omie's. It's perfect for meeting friends or working. ALSO, who doesn't love a beautiful pink building. Highly recommend.

I really enjoy having this coffee shop in the neighborhood! I love their seasonal menus and their space is very cozy.

Had a very nice time at the new coffee shop on the north side of 85! The coffee was good, the ambience pleasant, and the staff very friendly. The bathroom was clean and well-stocked. My one year old and I really liked the children’s play area! A great place to come on a hot afternoon. Prices are about what you’d expect. The milk steamer was broken today, but expected to be repaired soon, and too hot for a hot drink anyway!

I dream of Omie’s specialty drinks…no seriously. My friend once drove from Durham to Asheville with the Mabel in a thermos so it was hot and ready for me, THAT is how much I adore it. Don’t get me started with the seasonal menu. I’ve only visited in person a time or two, but the baristas have always been so warm and friendly. You can tell Omie’s takes pride in their coffee, their community, and the way they care about their customers. All the love back to you, Omie’s ❤

A place to enjoy specialty coffee. Omies shines brightest in their top quality, roasted on-site coffee. They serve it in a classic modern specialty coffee atmosphere: clean, minimalist, sufficient seating, play space for small children. Creative (delicious) seasonal craft drinks. Also offer a small selection of pastries.

New addition to the area, and it hasn’t disappointed yet! Unique space in a converted auto garage, but the facelift is well done with comfy and quirky furniture. One of the better chai lattes I’ve had! Light and tasty with just a hint of sweet (you can add simple syrup if you want to).

I’ve been to Omie’s a bunch, but I don’t live close enough to be a regular (wish I did!)

They have a rotating seasonal menu with some fun drinks, recently there was an eggnog latte and brown butter latte. The staff is always friendly, and they take care to make the drinks well.

A great coffee shop, that takes pride in their beverages.

Cute little coffee shop in a refurbished garage. The coffee was really smooth and had great taste. They had some fun seasonal drink options to choose from & the girl working was extremely nice and welcoming. Plenty of room to work or sit & relax. Overall a great addition to the coffee community!

I looked at some of the reviews and had to stop by since I was in the area. A M A Z I N G! The atmosphere was calming and relaxing, a great place to work on papers while sipping well made lattes. I received a sample of one of the coffees that they were selling and just had to buy it. The Barista was friendly and super informative. Above all else one they compost! Trash bags are compostable, all single use plastic is compostable, and of course the coffee. I love a business that thinks about the environment and puts the effort in the small things. If you haven't already been definitely check this place out ☕❤

This place is a gem. It’s cozy and doesn’t give that over-produced and redundant feeling that every coffee shop seems to have these days. Best of all, the staff was amazing. Maddie was a great barista and super friendly, and Olivia (go bruins!) was roasting beans and made time to chat it up as well. Thanks guys, love this spot already!

Oh and the coffee hit the spot!

I ordered the iced Mabel. It’s burnt honey and lavender. Sooooo delicious. I’m definitely returning. Very clean. Friendly staff. Plus, it’s on my way to work.
