Best Coffee Shops in Apex NC

by Ellen Pitts

best coffee shops in apex nc

If you don’t live in Apex, you might not be aware of all the incredible coffee shops the town has to offer. They are all a little bit different and depending on what you like, you might prefer one over the other. I’ve pulled together a a great list of what’s unique about each of these Apex NC coffee shops right here!

Central Apex NC Coffee Shops

Notes Coffee House 

Notes is a unique coffee house with some really interesting menu items. They serve the traditional coffee options but also have lotus drinks like Pink Lotus with watermelon, raspberry or cherry. And they serve locally brewed kombucha. Notes is located just of 55 and Perry Road, about a mile from downtown Apex. They are inside Rock and Roll High School and much of the decor and some menu items are music themed. 😀

Sipcha Boba

If you’re looking for a coffee alternative with a coffee shop vibe, you’re going to love Sipcha! They have hot tea, sparkling tea, boba tea, fruit tea and milk cap drinks. Menu items are made with fresh fruit, they offer lactose free milk and many milk substitutes including oat, soy, almond and coconut milk. And if you’re looking for a little something sweet, they also serve rolled ice cream!  Located in Beaver Creek Shopping Center.

Bonafide Bakeshop and Cafe 

According to their website, Bonafide Bakeshop and Cafe offers “craveable northern classics and good ole’ southern comforts.” Everything is made from scratch and they focus on high quality ingredients and local, seasonal offerings. Guests love the variety of vegan and gluten free options, as well as the amazing breakfast sandwiches. Apparently their chocolate chip cookies are the best around! 

West Apex NC Coffee Shops

Sweet Talk Cafe 

Until I found Sweet Talk Cafe, I had no idea what a croffle was. Maybe I’m behind the times. If you don’t know either, let me let you in on the secret… it’s like a waffle and a croissant had a baby. And apparently, you haven’t lived until you’ve had a croffle from Sweet Talk Cafe. The atmosphere is adorable…kind of like spa meets coffee shop. They serve all kinds of speciality coffees and other beverages as well as Asian inspired desserts. You know, the kind you see on TikTok and wonder how anyone makes anything so perfect? 

Wake Oasis Coffee 

If you need coffee quick and don’t want to get out of your car, Wake Zone Oasis Coffee is your place!! They have DRIVE THROUGH! Bring your dog for a pup cream. They also have a selection of bagels and muffins. 

Downtown Apex NC Coffee Shops

Common Grounds 

Common Grounds Coffee is one of the most popular coffee spots in Apex. Some people refer to it as the living room of Apex. It’s located in the historic downtown inside the Tobacco and Mule Exchange. It’s really a great spot with lots of tables. There is seating both outside and in the historic Mule Exchange building, which is really quaint. 

Mission Market 

Mission Market is another cute little coffee shop in downtown Apex. In addition to coffees they serve a variety of health minded breakfast and lunch options like acai bowls, smoothies and paninis. 

In addition to great food and coffee, Apex has some great neighborhoods to call home! Want to daydream about living in Apex NC? Check out our homes for sale in Apex NC page.
