Ninth Street, Durham
Ninth Street in Durham is a vibrant, happening place! It is full of health-conscious, young people, and it has a bright, happy feeling! Take a stroll along the street, and check out the unique shops. There's a pretty shop with crystals, incense, and jewelry on Perry Street, a side street, next door to colorful Pincho Loco Ice Cream, which has fresh made waffle cones and some unusual flavors. Native Threads is a hippie clothing store in a cute little house.
Choose a place to hang out from many great choices. There's Triangle Coffee House, which has better indoor seating than outdoor. Panera Bread has gorgeous spacious outdoor seating under lime green umbrellas, raised up over the street. Burger Bach is nearby, also with outdoor seating in a bright area facing modern apartment buildings. Your best choice is Happy + Hale, a really cool cafe with acai bowls, smoothies, and healthy options like The Scramble, with three eggs, quinoa, goat parmesan, bacon, and two veggies like kale and aragula. Yum! You order at the counter, customizing your food, like at Chipotle. You can sit outside in the nice seating (pictured above), or inside enjoying the awesome lighting and music. Alpaca Peruvian Chicken is another choice, with lovely outdoor seating and bright yellow umbrellas.
Walk east along Perry Street and you will come to another shopping plaza with Whole Foods and MadHatter Cafe + Bakeshop, an awesome spot to hang out, with huge windows, modern architecture, changing paintings, cool people, and great food including many eggy breakfast items which you order at the counter. It has plenty of parking in the shopping center parking lot for Whole Foods.
Keep walking east and you come to Duke East Campus, a lovely place to take a stroll admiring the architecture and busy students walking around.
Past the campus you come to the tree-lined Trinity Park neighborhood with its attractive historic homes. It's pleasant to enjoy the architecture, gardens, leaf-framed views, and decorations, especially at Halloween or Christmastime.
