We have called this city our home for 10+ years now, and the two-day itinerary is our personal guide on the best things to do in Raleigh including where to eat, drink, play and stay!
Here you can expect generous portions of Southern comfort food, and a laid-back vibe with a collection of funky antiques hanging from the ceiling.
BREAKFAST
COFFEE (AND MORNING STROLL)
Is a four-acre urban green space and the square and surrounds are a charming mix of old and new in the heart of downtown Raleigh.
We love their lattes and we like to either sit in the cozy upstairs or on the sidewalk in the warmer months.
MID-MORNING ACTIVITIES
Is the central thoroughfare of downtown Raleigh and is bookended by the State Capitol Building to the north, and the Performing Arts Center to the south.
Built in 1840, the NC State Capitol building is a National Historic Landmark and one of the best-preserved examples of Greek Revival-style architecture.
