First time here. Stopped by before work the other day since I heard so many great things and I was not disappointed. This place is awesome. I’m coming here more often for coffee and the flatbreads are amazing. The service was phenomenal. The girl who waited on me, I think her name was Lisa, was very nice, friendly and funny. She helped me decide on what to get and was very enthusiastic. Enjoyed my overall experience. Will definitely come back.

Perked Up is awesome. It’s my go-to lunch spot near work — the sandwiches are always fresh and seriously good. The people there are super friendly and make the place feel really welcoming. You can tell they care about what they’re doing. Everything I’ve tried has been great, but the vibes and the food keep me coming back. Easily one of the best spots around.

Located inside a corporate building inside of an office park, this breakfast and lunch place is open to the public. It is not the easiest place to find though, as the public entrance is actually in the back of the building and there are no signs leading up to it. Rely on your GPS to get there, and then find your way to the other side! 🙂
Once inside, the layout is quite nice with lots of coffee relate memorabilia and decorations. This is really a coffee shop that has some food, rather than a restaurant. We came over for breakfast so we ordered several for this breakfast items as well as four different drink combinations to give the place a fair shake. While we waited for our meals, we observed the other clientele. As one would expect from this type of location, everyone else seemed to be workers from the office park on their way to work picking up coffee and food. We were the only party that stayed in the place and ate our meals there.
The food was not disappointing, but was not especially great either. The best was probably the bagel. It had enough cheese that was properly melted. The Avocado Toast was just that. Mashed avocado spread on a piece of toast with some everything seasoning sprinkled on top. The Gemini Wrap was interesting with its combination of tomatoes, greens and cheeses. There was supposed to be some spice to it, but we could not detect any. The most disappointing was the flatbread which was charred on the edges and had candied bacon on it – that fell completely flat. The sweet bacon and the salty cheese combination just did not work. We got the potato pancakes and they were somewhat greasy.
The different coffees were mostly OK. Some of us like strong coffee and so these offerings were weak. There are no strong coffee options except for adding espresso shots.
The staff was great. Very attentive and wanting to make sure that we understood everything and got what we wanted. They also checked back on us a couple of times – which was nice since this is not a full-service restaurant. Prices are very reasonable as we spent around $15 per person which included tip.

Great people and great food. I come here multiple times a week and it’s consistently excellent.
I recommend the pear and turkey panini!

This place is an absolute gem! The friendliness of the staff is truly top notch—they made me feel welcome from the moment I walked in. The açaí bowl was absolutely delicious, and the breakfast sandwiches were downright scrumptious. Great food, great vibes—can’t wait to come back!

An easy choice before work. Located just a stone’s throw from main street in southpoint, this location offers classic staples as well as fresh ideas. A modern rustic-luxury aesthetic filled with friendly staff. I am a big fan of the hungry man wrap, the potato pancakes ate delicious!

I submitted a catering request through their website and got no response. After 24 hours, I called and spoke to a young woman who said she’d pass my info to the catering person — still nothing. We were planning a large order for up to 100 people and wanted to support a small business, but clearly they don’t care. No follow-up, no professionalism. Took our business elsewhere. Don’t waste your time.

Popped in with my 2 year old for a coffee and quick breakfast. Everyone was SO kind, everything was delicious, and it’s so calm and cozy in there. We can’t wait to come back!

Fresh sandwiches with fresh chips lovingly prepared.
It’s in the main floor of an office building but open to the public.
