Best Raleigh Coffee Shops for a Jolt of Caffeine | Eater Carolinas

"The Wi-Fi password to this Oakwood coffee shop might be “thisplacesucks,” but it’s the farthest thing from the truth. A strong internet connection, ample tables, and robust breakfast and lunch offerings make this an ideal place to settle in to work for the day. In the morning, sip on a seasonal latte while devouring a McOptimist breakfast sandwich, a riff on the classic McDonald’s McGriddle sandwich. For a change of scenery head to the expansive back patio and break out one of the many board games available." - Elliott Harrell
