White Story Cafe
About
White Story Cafe is a family-run breakfast cafe on South White Street in downtown Wake Forest. It took over the former Lemon Tree Cafe space and shares a building with The Burger Shop, so it sits among the downtown shops and restaurants.
The owners ran cafes in Bangkok before moving to the US, and the menu blends classic American breakfast with their Thai background. Plates run from French toast and eggs Benedict to omelets and chicken with waffles, and breakfast is served for as long as the doors are open. It is an easy pick for breakfast before a walk along White Street.
