The Standard Drug No. 2 is a historic commercial building located at Kinston, Lenoir County, North Carolina. It was built between 1918 and 1924, and is a two-story, brick Commercial Style with street level, plate-glass windows. The interior retains an Art Deco-style lunch counter and pressed metal ceiling. Sit-ins were held at the lunch counter in 1960 and 1961, to protest segregation.

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2014.
