8. 83 Custom Coffee Truck
83 Custom Coffee Truck is the most adorable little truck turned coffee shop you’ve ever seen. Park your car and walk on up to the truck to grab a cup of freshly brewed coffee and a delicious homemade pastry. And not to worry, just because it’s a truck doesn’t mean there isn’t plenty of space to hang out. Enjoy their brand new outdoor patio (surrounded by the beautiful gardening skills of Grassy Knoll) or enjoy their indoor seating area filled with local artwork. It’s the perfect spot for a power business chat or some personal chill time.
9. High Point University
