User Reviews for Open Eye Cafe

I consume quite a bit of coffee over the course of the week, but I certainly look forward to my weekend mornings at Open Eye. As a coffee lover, I have to say that everything from their mochas to their drip is delicious. I only wish they had more by way of food to nibble on while drinking and playing on their wonderful wi-fi.

The coffee is good, but i haven't found the same love for it that the other reviewer did--when i went there last night, they were only rated 90.5 by the health inspector and by the way--it's not in Chapel Hill, it's in Carrboro. The best coffee in CH remains DRIADE (even though both shops are owned by the same person and the baristas sometimes trade spaces).

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

I consider myself a coffee snob. The Open Eye has the best coffee I've ever had. I stop by as often as I can before work and get a cup. I wished they opened before 7:00. Always rated 99 or 100 by health inspector. You can't beat that! Reminds me of the 60s era.

Pros: the best

Cons: none

The perfect spot for taking an afternoon tea break, writing in your journal or chatting with a friend.  See the full editorial review.

Insider Tips

The Extras

In the corner, you might spy a solo guitarist picking bluegrass or perhaps a jazzy funk combo laying down lo-fi grooves for all the bean heads. The music is mellow and offsets the edge that often accompanies caffeine dens.
