Sola Coffee Café · Raleigh, NC

January 31, 2023 by Fiona Hutcheson Leave a Comment

Two cups of coffee on a counter.

Long Story Short

Sola Coffee Café is a seriously adorable family-owned coffee shop located in North Raleigh. Serving up freshly brewed Counter Culture coffee, beer, wine, and an impressive menu of both savory and sweet eats, this place truly has it all. Sure, the lines can be long on the weekends. But I’d line up any day for an iced maple cinnamon latte and a bag of hot mini donuts.

What’s to Love

  • Counter Culture coffee and great housemade syrups that aren’t too sweet
  • Surprisingly affordable (and delicious!) food
  • Dog friendly cafe with plenty of outdoor seating for when the weather’s nice

Things to Note

  • Secret’s out on this place; the lines are always long on the weekends
  • No wifi on Saturdays or from 9-1 on weekdays
  • Closed on Sundays
