Great drinks overall-not just coffee! Nice atmosphere. Cool decor. Clean location.

So good that we stopped twice in 3 days while in town. Enjoyed a black coffee, gingerbread latte and a cinnamon roll. All of it was excellent and the staff was very friendly.

Visited 42 & Lawrence twice while traveling through Raleigh. The coffee was fantastic, environment clean, and staff incredibly welcoming and friendly. Get a cinnamon roll!

Best place to get a cup of coffee or tea and a bite to eat in the morning. Great staff and trendy downtown treats ☕

I come to this place every time I have an early shift at work and need a pick me up. They always get my order right, they know that I love sweet things, and if I could, I could stay here all day to work on my book. Everyone is super friendly and even the dogs that come in are treated like customers. The manager is also pretty nice and makes sure her customers are taken care of and protected, because you never what can happen downtown.

The place is all aesthetics. I experienced anti blackness from the Asian manager I think that's her title. Anyway, I've been all over the world and have been treated better than I was at this establishment. Trash.

This is my go-to coffee shop in the downtown area. I’ve found that I can count on them to be open when other coffee shops aren’t (e.g. super early in the am, New Year’s Day, etc.). The woman who I assume is the manager/owner is very friendly and always ensures that my experience is top tier. She offers me a pup cup when I bring my doggies around and she is welcoming and warm.The coffee I’ve tried is delicious, I typically get oat-milk lattes flavored with lavender or just breve lattes and the drinks are always scrumptious and hit the spot. Highly recommend.

I can’t even count how many coffees I have had here and everyone is spot on. The staff is the bomb and always nice. I think the hazelnut latte is the best I’ve found in Raleigh without a doubt.

I have only tried their hot chocolate and caramel apple cider. Both are delicious and warm you from the inside out. I have yet to try their coffee or pastries, but I will update when I do. The staff is also very friendly and helpful.

Sets the world standard for what cold brew is supposed to be! My wife said this morning that she wanted coffee and handpicked 42 & Lawrence….I owe her due to this pick! She had the taj mahal and I had the lavender cold brew with lavender cold foam. We split a croissant that is the best one we have has in Raleigh so far as well. I have never been to a coffee shop where one of us, let alone both of us, ordered another coffee before leaving an establishment! We will be back tomorrow God willing❤️

Wonderful coffee shop on a charming corner overlooking the square! 42 spice is my favorite coffee :)

The location and barista were excellent. My cinnamon roll was tasty, and my coffee was good, but not great. The coffee is the only reason I took off a star, and in all reality it would be half a star but Google doesn’t have that option.The drink was good, it just wasn’t well made and that’s my only complaint. The barista was very friendly and greeted everyone with a ln enthusiastic welcome when they entered. Overall a great experience and worth a visit.

The lady who prepared our lattes this morning was extremely sweet and went out of her way to make sure that our lattes were exactly how we wanted. The house made caramel and pumpkin sauce is a must. We appreciate the local hospitality. We are already looking forward to returning the next time that we are home!

Had a hard time finding 42 and Lawrence but was pleasantly surprised once inside! Interior is modern and harsh looking with minimal seating, doesn't have the warm, cozy coffee shop vibe I usually seek which is why I docked one star. Also had free WiFi. Service was great, drinks were brought to our table and they even warmed up the cinnamon roll we ordered. Most importantly, the drinks and cinnamon roll were great! Americano was bold and flavorful. Seasonal autumn breeze latte had notes of gingerbread and cinnamon. The unexpected highlight was the cinnamon roll-- didn't look like a conventional cinnamon roll but tasted amazing heated up.
