Rude Awakening coffee house

The staff was nice. The brown bag lunch wasn't really all that the reviews made it sound like it was. It was pretty basic and didn't include a drink. For a little over $6 I got a croissant sandwich, a cookie and a choice from 3 types of chips or a fruit cup. The sandwich was pretty good though, I must admit. It would be worth the money had it included a drink. Other than that, nice environment and nice place to relax.

The smoothie and coffee was fine. Service was unfriendly and transactional. I probably won't be back.

Cute little cozy eclectic coffee shop in the middle of downtown. I love its hip vibe. Staff is always friendly. The cheesecake and the coffee are delicious. Chairs and tables outside are pretty cool during chilli days. Been visiting since 2004, we moved out of town, and always stop when visiting town.

The drinks are delicious! Definitely deviates from the coporate, standard made drinks you would get from a franchise. The fresh baked bread is to die for! The quality of the product and the low prices make everything a steal. From the very first visit, you feel welcomed and comfortable. The staff is extremely helpful and genuine in the way they talk to you, as opposed to a forced demeanor and fake kindness. When I was having trouble ordering, one of the servers offered to make me a drink that was a personal favorite of his (which tasted amazing) and also offered to make me a custom drink every time I came in if I preferred. Keisha, from my first visit, made me feel right at home with her honesty and outgoing personality. Jennette is very kind and helpful, answering any and all questions to ensure your order is to your liking. There are multiple seating choices, from inside with the nice AC, out back in the beautiful terrace, to the cute tables out front that allow you to see the town and people watch. I have quickly become a regular and I'm astounded by the negative comments I've read. I would recommend Rude Awakening every time!

I ordered an iced breve espresso with sugar free pumpkin & sugar free brown sugar.. it tastes like pumpkin cream cheese! Which is amazing bc I don't like regular plain pumpkin spice. I appreciate the fact that they have many sugar free options! So many places only have sf hazelnut and vanilla... I also love that they are trying to reduce the use of plastic with paper cups and paper straws... the cups aren't esthetically pleasing BUT the cause is more important... as some other reviewers seemed to not comprehend (*rolls eyes*).. Thanks guys!

My favorite favorite favorite coffee house in the area! Staff is super nice and I would absolutely consider them friends of mine 🙃 They have an excellent selection of whole beans, and the pastries are top notch. Definitely recommend stopping by on your next trip downtown.

The place is really nice they have a mask mandate and i have a breathing disability to where if i wear a mask I begin to suffocate within a few minutes and I wasn’t allowed in. Disappointed.

This place has great coffee and excellent sandwiches. It is amazing what adding a tomato and lettuce to a sandwich will do. The staff are always polite and helpful when I go for lunch and an afternoon coffee pick me up. They also have free wireless for their customers which is very convenient.

One of my favorite coffee shops in all of Fayetteville. The place is decorated with coffee everything and the people that work there are always whipping to help make a choice from their menu.

Awesome baristas, one of my favorite coffee shops. Love the outdoor seating.
