Flat White Cafe – Coffee shop & brunch café in Durham
The sister coffee shop to Flat White Kitchen, serving what they call the best coffee in the North since 2010, right in the heart of Durham City. The food menu leans into fresh, simple favourites, think pressed juices, smoothies, daily homemade cakes and scones, and a solid line-up of toasties (the bacon sandwich on toasted brioche with chilli jam is a nice touch).
The draw: reliably good coffee, a frequently changing menu, and a central Durham location right by Elvet Bridge.
Hours:
Mon–Sat 9am–5pm
Sun 10am–4pm
Vibe check: casual and easy-going, geared toward breakfast and brunch rather than an evening visit, good for a coffee stop or a light bite in the city centre.
