About the Business

Specialties

Driade is Italian for the Greek word Dryad, which in that mythology is the spirit that lives in a tree, in essence, a wood nymph. This Espresso bar, Teahouse and Wine bar shows a combination of magic and the highest quality that make it a superior place to escape and unwind. The beautiful gardens and patios at Driade blend seamlessly into the surrounding old growth woods for an atmosphere that is truly unique. Coffee is from local Roaster, Carrboro Coffee Roasters who emphasize Farmer Direct relationships and decades of cutting edge expertise in making each unique coffee shine. Captivating art is displayed and changes monthly, and live music can be enjoyed by candlelight outside from May thru October. The Espresso, brewed coffee, whole leaf tea and large assortment of other drink offerings (including the famous Driade shake!) are perfectly suited to pair with the luscious baked goods, both savory & sweet. A select choice of premium cigars in the humidor will delight the aficionado, and the wine and beer menu is as carefully sourced as the coffee and features top-notch bottles and glass pours. Drop into Caffe Driade, which is comfortably nestled back off of Franklin street, and enjoy the epicurean delights that have been featured on the Food Networks show. Driade is a gem of a find, where Europeans seek a feeling of home and locals bring their friends in order to impress.
