Millennium Pl0.4 mi from Durham centrelast reviewed April 2026

Coffee holds up, prices are honest, and the food menu is good enough that people who came in for a flat white end up staying for lunch.

An independent where the regulars keep coming back, and not just for the coffee.

Bean To Brew★★ Specialty

Durham's best coffee operates out of a market unit. The bean retail is the backbone; the drinks counter is the entry point.

Porcelain Coffee Bar★ Everyday

FIKA beans from County Durham and staff who know what they're serving. The most considered cup on Old Elvet.

Cafédral Durham★ Everyday

The scones are exceptional and rightly the reason most people come. The coffee is honest, which is exactly what a plate of scones requires.
