The best of both worlds can be found at the independently owned café/bar combo, The Daily Beer Bar. This hip spot has it all: coffee and breakfast pastries from local bakeries in the morning; salads, sandwiches and snacks featuring local ingredients for lunch; and a rotating selection of craft beer, wine and other drinks into the evening.

So comfy, such good music, food and drinks. The menu and dining/drinking/working experience has been so thoughtfully laid out, and it’s a lovely, cozy place to pass a few hours. The location is really helpful as well, with the parking garage around the corner and DPAC close by.

The Daily is our (me + my husband's) favorite spot in Durham. The owners make a strong effort to create a welcoming and inclusive atmosphere that is truly unique. The staff are also super friendly. We've found The Daily to be good for both working with a coffee+croissant and for relaxing with a pint+sandwich. It's a community spot with great ambience and delicious coffee and beer.
Check out their Instagram page for frequent events like the Wednesday run/bike clubs or a paint and sip with a local artist (@graywillcreative)!

Easily my favorite coffee shop in town! The coffee is amazing, and nothing beets a cold draft after work :) Also, food selection is nice! They have a variety of seating whether you're looking to work or just chat with friends!

Wow what a nice place. Stopped in here for a beer while walking around Durham. Great beer menu, great recommendations from the owner, very relaxed and friendly environment. It wasn’t quite a meal time so I didn’t order anything, but their menu looks to be interesting, and all prices very reasonable. Highly recommend.

The Daily Beer Bar is open in the morning as a coffee shop. They offer Ninth Street Bakery goodies and a variety of coffee drinks. Try their their tonic espresso.

I love the atmosphere, everything is so cute! The girl was really kind and took our order nicely. I tried the blueberry danish and made it hot with chai latte! Delicious!! Sandwich with chips and cappuccino. The place is cozy!
