Dessert shop Restaurant Bar
Bittersweet is a terribly wonderful dessert and cocktail lounge with an all-natural, seasonal menu in downtown Raleigh. We are a place where you can get bourbon with your pie, champagne with your cake and Irish whiskey in your coffee. Our menu changes each season, with drink and dessert pairing specials offered regularly. We also have a full coffee menu—everything from cappuccinos to pourovers—with beans from our pals over in Durham, Counter Culture Coffee. Read more

Iced Coffee & Pink Peppercorn scones will make this not your typical mundane Monday. Plus, we have big, slow-melting cubes, so they won't water-down your coffee. #themoreyouknow
