Formerly a bait-and-tackle shop, Johnny’s has been given a face lift by the new owner. The back room is a quirky convenience store and coffee shop serving quick-drip coffee, pastries, cheeses and more. Some specialties are “imported” from other restaurants and stores in the Chapel Hill-Durham area, and there are some tables outside to enjoy them in the fresh air. The store retains a retro vibe, with worn wooden floorboards and vintage Sunbeam bread signs.
