Other Suggestions

Some great local businesses have recently opened their doors in downtown Durham that should be on everyone’s list to check out.  If you are over in the Bull City this weekend stop in to Cocoa Cinnamon for a great latte, cup of coffee, or tea. I also recommend you check out the just opened brick and mortar location for Monuts Donuts. They make the best donuts ever! Both of these local businesses  have created incredible spaces for the community to enjoy.
