We value fresh local ingredients and use them whenever possible. Our eggs come from Latta's Egg Ranch in Hillsborough and goat cheeses from Celebrity Dairy in Siler City, Grits from Carolina Grits and Co. Menu items are prepared with fresh produce from Blue Sky Farms in Wendell. We have partnered with Muddy Dog Roasting Company in Morrisville to serve coffee made from the best roasted coffee beans.

We now have FREE Wi-Fi courtesy of iCary!

We welcome feedback, below is a recent e-mail we received:
One late Saturday afternoon, my family and I were in search of a place to get coffee in downtown Cary....a lot of the restaurants/bakeries were closed so we decided to try the Chatham St. Cafe. Unfortunately, it was closed. However, as we were standing outside the door, the owner (I believe) came outside and asked if we needed something. We told her that we were looking for coffee. Even though she was closed, she offered for us to come in. She brewed some fresh coffee and we also ordered some of their DELICIOUS desserts!! Because of their AWESOME hospitality and service (and for their great desserts) we also went back that weekend for dinner. The dinner was extremely good too. I would recommend the Chatham St. Cafe to anyone!!
