Yonder Coffee

I had heard great things about Yonder, and they were all true, just not as good as I expected for as much as I had heard about it. It's clean. Doubles as a bar. Good coffee. A few pastry options.

Solid coffee shop w lots of space, good music and great coffee. Polite fast service. In the morning they have some simple counter service but there is a cafe next door for more food.

I went in with my service dog. The barista did not seem to be aware of any legal protections surrounding service dogs. I checked in with her, asked her if she knew the two legal questions. She didn't, so I told her what she could legally ask service dog handlers, and what appropriate answers would be. She said she wanted to accommodate me, and they had outdoor seating. I told her again he is a service dog. She said she knew, but without much tact checked in with her manager. If you don't know the law, at least be kind and don't suggest I sit outside in 45 degree weather. Her manager said it was fine for me to stay inside, but at that point I decided I could spend my money elsewhere. Staff should be educated on disability laws, and if they aren't educated, at least have customer service sk

I’ve been to Yonder a few times now, and it’s quickly become one of my favorite spots in Durham. The space has a really welcoming vibe, and the staff are always kind, friendly, and genuinely accommodating. I especially love some of their teas, a few of them remind me of how I used to have them back home in India, which makes every visit feel a little extra special. It’s a place where I’ve always felt comfortable, included, and well taken care of. Highly recommend! 🙌

A friend brought me here on a visit to Durham and I loved it! They have a really tasty selection of single-origin coffee and local pastries, it's a cute place (great mugs!) and the staff are super sweet. The owners seem to care a lot about building community in Durham and host and participate in a lot of cool events :) hope to be back soon!!
