Brewery Profile

Flying Bull Taproom and Coffee Bar

In Durham’s active craft beverage scene, this operation gives visitors two ways to encounter the same local brand. It began in 2020 in the 9th Street neighborhood as Flying Bull Taproom and Coffee Bar, pairing the taproom model with coffee service in an area known for steady foot traffic and neighborhood visits. In 2024, it expanded with a Morris Street location that added a full-service restaurant and brewery facility. For a first-time guest, the defining feature is not a single flagship beer or stated brewing volume, but the dual format: one site rooted in taproom-and-coffee service, and another built for a longer food-and-drink visit. The brewery also presents itself as part of Durham’s local network, with an emphasis on community causes and collaborations with other area makers.

Travelers coming through the Triangle often look for places that reflect Durham beyond a standard bar stop: independent beer, casual food, coffee earlier in the day, and settings that connect to nearby neighborhoods. Flying Bull fits that kind of itinerary because it is not limited to one narrow use. A visitor might treat the 9th Street location as a flexible stop for coffee or craft beverages, while the Morris Street restaurant and brewery is better suited to a fuller meal with drinks. The available facts do not identify specific beer styles, seasonal releases, or house specialties, so visitors should approach the beer list as something to check in person rather than assume a particular lineup. Its community-oriented focus may also appeal to travelers who pay attention to how local breweries work with artists, makers, nonprofits, or neighborhood groups.

For planning, the most important distinction is between the two Durham locations. The original 9th Street taproom and coffee bar is the reference point for the brand’s start, while Morris Street is the expanded restaurant and brewery facility opened in 2024. Food service is part of the Morris Street operation, but details such as menus, seating arrangements, outdoor space, reservations, parking, and event schedules are not specified here. The taproom or brewery directly is the place to confirm the day’s pours, current food options, coffee availability, and any community events or collaborations. Because beer styles and production details are not publicly defined in the provided information, visitors should expect the experience to be shaped by the current tap list and the setting they choose rather than by a fixed, widely documented beer portfolio.
