French Broad Chocolate Lounge

A downtown institution, and yes, you're getting the liquid truffle. It's dense, dark, and served in a cup like the world's most decadent hot chocolate. Everything else on the menu is good too, but that's the one to build your visit around.

Eat & Drink

Daymoon Coffeebar Locals’ pick

The closest good coffee to home, and it happens to have a drive-thru. On a slow morning that combination is hard to beat. Pull up, grab your cortado, keep moving.

Eat & Drink

Neng Jr.'s Locals’ pick

This is the hardest reservation in town right now, and it earns it. The Filipino menu is bold and personal, nothing watered down for a wider crowd. Book early or plan on missing it.

Eat & Drink

Hole Doughnuts

They fry the doughnuts to order, so you're eating them warm and a little crackly at the edges. It's a small menu done exactly right. Get there before the line does.
