I have a small flower farm and was asked to do a pop up here over the summer by the social media coordinator. It was a last minute event we put together on a Sunday morning so I had low expectations going into this but I still spent hours cutting flowers to sell.
We agreed on a soft open time since we didn’t expect much attendance. I arrived about 10 minutes late, which I mentioned to the coordinator and was told it was totally fine. The bartender saw me but continued to ignore me for about 10 minutes while he puttered around the bar. He eventually showed me where I could set up but I felt that he was immediately a little hostile towards me just for being there. Weird vibe.
About an hour later he came back out and told me the owner wanted me to leave because I was late. There were only 3 customers that had come to the bar that whole time and 2 of them were there for my flowers. I was informed that the owner gets drunk and belligerent and makes rash decisions like this and was drunk in that moment. Apparently he had waited for me to get there because he wanted to buy flowers but then was nowhere to be found when I arrived? I just wish the owner had talked to me directly instead of ushering off his dirty work. We could have quickly reached an understanding instead of him escalating. As a trans person I definitely wouldn’t call this place LGBTQ friendly or friendly at all for that matter.

Baryo is a chill spot I’ve taken advantage of the coffee in the morning before work and a stiff shot of bourbon after a long day at work. During my most recent visit I had the pleasure to have Chris as a bartender. My necessarily not like that Outsideguy was absolutely amazing……great suggestions on a bev and food options. Thx Chris I’ll catch you next time brother!!

Baryo is such a gem! The service here is absolutely exceptional! Every visit I’ve been greeted with such warmth and kindness, and you can tell they truly care about creating a great experience for their guests. The menu is full of fun, creative flavors and unique combinations that make it impossible to choose just one favorite. It’s such a welcoming spot with an energy that makes you want to come back again and again. Highly recommend!

We heard that Baryo was now serving breakfast and coffee drinks so we went to check it out. The space is cute and shares the building with former Krill. I learned they also share the kitchen with that space and the chef Tyler came out and introduced herself and brought out the food. Jake was our barista and bartender and greeted us, answered all of our questions and made delicious lattes. We had the oat milk lavender latte which was a specialty drink and I can see why. The flavors are perfect and lavender goes so well with the espresso and honey and lavender . I had the matcha latte with lavender and it was also perfectly made and served in real porcelain cups vs to go containers. Our scrambles and potatoes were served in a plastic to-go container so that was a little odd however it was ready to just add a lid to take the leftovers. They offer breakfast sandwiches with your choice of bun, biscuit, tortilla and then choice of filling . The fried chicken sandwich on brioche looks amazing and we may try that next time. This is a fun place for breakfast and coffee and tea drinks and I would recommend checking it out when in this part of Durham. They also then have a full service bar for late night.
