Double Oaks Bed and Breakfast

The original details in this historic house are what make the place stand out, from the warped glass windows to the solid wood doors with key locks. The outdoor space is idyllic, and I can picture watching live music on the small stage. It's a cool, aesthetic coffee shop just a couple of blocks from Greensboro College. I also love that they locally source products and pay their employees a livable wage, with a $15-an-hour base pay. Great spot to grab a coffee and chill. I'd recommend it.

I've been here twice and tried several drinks in one visit, and they've all been good quality. The staff are super nice, too. The inside is pleasant, and so is the garden on the side. My top pick is the matcha latte with lavender syrup. Delicious. I'd keep coming back.

A lovely spot for reading quietly or working on your laptop. There are small and large tables, plus outlets if your battery runs low. The wood, high ceilings, vintage sofas, and warm lighting make it feel like a cozy old, fancy house. They offer hot and iced drinks, along with beer and wine, and host several events. The patio is spacious, with a porch where you can sit and watch people pass on the street, or a backyard with a beautiful garden.

The vintage feel and cozy atmosphere made me love having lunch and coffee here. The young barista was welcoming and helped me choose. The HT's soup was delicious, and so was the Clarence sandwhich. Service was great. I hate that they don't have the bed and breakfast option anymore, but the coffee and food are worth stopping for. It's a beautiful historic home turned business. I left the owner my card in case they need restoration work, since we have experience with historic places and it deserves to be restored properly if there's a water emergency or something.
