Drift Coffee

3151 Elion Dr, Durham, NC

★★★★★4.8(34 Google reviews)

Crema's Take

Drift brings a bright, Scandinavian-inspired warmth to Durham with thoughtfully crafted lattes and creative specialty drinks that leave visitors genuinely impressed. Beyond the excellent coffee, their avocado toast and full breakfast menu are clearly made with real care, making it an equally inviting spot for a solo work session, book club gathering, or leisurely meal with family.

Drift was the perfect environment for our book club. The space was bright and welcoming. With a variety of coffee and drink options everyone was pleased. We ordered several lattes, a mango smoothie, chai and a hot cocoa. The barista was very sweet and helpful and when my order wasn’t quite right she apologized and fixed it! Meeting us at the pick up counter, the cutest latte art topped things off beautifully! Thanks Drift!

I’m visiting from VA and was just so impressed with everything I ordered I had to leave a review. The avocado toast (+ goat cheese) was phenomenal - the bread and whatever they put on/in it tasted straight from heaven. The salted coconut oat coldie was incredible and same for the chia cup. Everything was fresh, flavorful, with just enough sweetness for a perfect balance that still felt healthy. So well done - every bit. I also ordered this on doordash and it was just as good and beautiful as I’d expect it to be in house. 10/10.

Lovely new coffee shop! Bright and spacious with Scandinavian vibes. Nice seating options, both indoors and outdoors! Easy parking in the deck across the street. Our barista was kind and answered all our questions. They serve Black and White coffee, and our drinks were delicious. The kitchen was closed because they were down a chef, but it was no problem for us, since we were just there for coffee. My only recommendation would be to offer a printed menu that describes the more unique drinks! Looking forward to future visits.

We are so excited to have a Drift in RTP! Great menu and atmosphere- very clean and gorgeous inside. The staff here are friendly and helpful- and the food and drinks came out very quickly. Will definitely be back! Love that they have options for mobile pick-up too if you’re in a hurry.
