The Dripolator Coffeehouse

Couch-filled coffeehouse on State Street that's been roasting its own beans since long before Black Mountain got busy. Doors open at 6:30am for a slow morning. There's usually a gluten-free or vegan pastry in the case too.

Neng Jr.'s Locals’ pick

Book early or plan on missing it. Hardest reservation in town right now, and it earns it. The Filipino menu is bold and personal, nothing watered down for a wider crowd.

Eat & Drink

Hole Doughnuts

Doughnuts fried to ORDER, so they hit warm and a little crackly at the edges. Small menu, done exactly right. Beat the line.
