A charming little spot that might be small in size but is undoubtedly huge in character and flavor. Our group of 11, plus 2 adorable twin babies, were greeted with a warm and welcoming ambiance that set the tone for a delightful experience. The star of the show was undoubtedly the omelet, which almost all of us ordered. Each omelet was cooked to perfection, fluffy and bursting with fresh, savory ingredients. It's clear they knows how to make a memorable breakfast! The beverages were equally impressive. The coffee selections received rave reviews from our group, striking the perfect balance of robust and smooth flavors. But the surprise standout was the Chai Masala – a fragrant and perfectly spiced delight that warmed us from the inside out. Despite the cafe's modest size, the space felt both intimate and accommodating, a rare find in today's bustling café scene. The staff was attentive and efficient, handling our large group with ease and grace.Really great things indeed come in small packages. We left with full bellies, warm hearts, and the unanimous decision that we will be returning in the future. If you're looking for a cozy spot with top-notch food and a welcoming atmosphere, look no further than this wonderful cafe.

There are so many great things about this place: We were a big group (11 adults and 2 infants) visiting the area and stopped by for our Saturday brunch. The staff were super nice and flexible, accomodating everything with us. The food and coffee is quick, delicious and with a great price. We tried Omelette with additions and french toast and the portion was huge and tasted sooooo goood. I can't recommend this local cozy cafe enough for Saturday and Sunday brunch. Go check it out if you are around!

Went here while waiting for my spouse to get a birthday message. I have 2 large dogs and going anywhere with them is extra. They were very friendly and gave me and the dogs a lot of attention. He recommended a great single source pour over coffee that was fantastic. The dogs got pup cups and ice water as well as attention from the staff. Put door seating was nice. Highly recommend this place for a quiet place to do work, homework, or find your zen. Parking is limited especially as busy as they are. Will return. That is my vehicle in the picture.

The outdoor seating is great. Second time I have been here and coffee is ok. Got a blueberry Crumble latte and it was hardly flavored. Disappointed in the bagel egg and cheese breakfast sandwich. Was more soggy/steamed than toasted and seemed a bit squished. It was decent for what it was but the price for that was probably more than it needed to be. The staff was nice that initially served me. The second one I needed to ask a question for seemed like I interrupted him and talked down at me on my change correction I needed. I am also hard of hearing and all staff were quite quiet, making it a little frustrating to understand options that weren't on the menu/recommendations. The seating is nice, small parking lot though. Lots of food options for the size of cafe.Parking: Limited spots and small lot

Great coffee shop/cafe. There is limited indoor seating, but also a handful of tables outside. Unlike most coffee shops, this place has a full kitchen, and the food is surprisingly good. They have an assortment of baked goods, salads, sandwiches, breakfast items, and plates available.The coffee is consistently good. I tried the quesadilla, the chicken was perfectly seasoned and moist. The quesadilla was expensive but felt worth it due to the high quality and copious amounts of chicken.Definitely a great option if you're looking for coffee and a meal.

I'm relatively new to the area, and had passed by this cafe several times. I'm glad that I finally stopped in!The atmosphere is super cozy and friendly - one of the owners was making easy conversation with everyone who came in while making some great coffee.I ordered a large latte and a slice of peach pound cake - both were perfection. I'm a bit of a coffee addict, and I'd comfortably say that they have some great beans. :D

Great location and options for indoor/outdoor seating. We enjoyed the avocado toast and breakfast sandwich as well as turmeric ginger tea and house blend. Well priced menu and helpful staff.

Wonderful little cafe with great outdoor dining space. The food was delicious with my hand crafted expresso beverage. We also followed lunch with some coffee and the most delicious homemade oatmeal cookie.

The interior is really bright and inviting. The wall decor is minimal and fits the atmosphere. The person who took our order was friendly and polite. The food menu choices are plentiful and the drink choices are adequate. Overall, I recommend checking this establishment out and giving it your own personal review.

It’s lunch time but I was craving something sweet. French toast was the perfect solution. They had a good crowd with seating still available. Food came out quickly and was delicious. I see repeat visits in the very near future.

It was the best coffee I ever had in America. The combination of scones and coffee is an illusion.Next time, make sure to drink beer! I want to go again.^^ㅐ

We stopped here for breakfast on our way to Columbia SC and loved the place! I had an omelette with a side of fresh fruit, and since I'm not a big fan of coffee, the owner offered to make me a chai with cranberry tea drink that I have been dreaming about ever since. Very tasty! It should definitely be added to the menu!! My husband had the house blend coffee and a breakfast sandwich that he also enjoyed. I wish we lived closer to this coffee shop.

This place doesn’t take will to black peoples, I walked in and I stood there for about 10 minutes before I was waited on this guy was standing there talking to a customer saw me standing there but didn’t wait on me this young girl behind the register was doing other things then decided to take my order, but as soon as a white customer walked in the guy that was talking to the customer stop talking and took her order was like really this is not a good place for BLACK peoples in my opinion, but when I got my food the young man that gave it to me was very nice but I will never never come here again ever

A great place for coffee and conversation. Talking with the baristas is never a bore. No more being tethered to a mobile device all the time. Sometimes just sitting and taking in the atmosphere when drinking coffee means more than the cup of coffee itself. The coffee is good especially with their new oat milk option. Their lunch options compliment the shop well. I like to break away from my busy work day for a short period to enjoy a good cup of coffee and some food.

Had the Basic Breakfast and reg coffee. The coffee was great. The breakfast, not so much. Both the eggs and sausage tasted...unusual. The bagel was okay, but only enough cream cheese for less than half of one side.Recommend the coffee drinks, but not the food.

We were driving through Chapin and decided to stop in. Glad we did! All the meals we got were big hits. The French toast, yogurt parfait, grilled cheese, and blt were all spot on and well priced. Delicious and plated beautifully. Quick service and very friendly staff. Relaxing atmosphere, clean and tidy. If we get the chance to drive through again, I’d definitely come back here!

Excellent, adorable cafe with good coffee, great atmosphere, friendly employees, good customer service, good food. Vegan options readily available - humus wrap simple but really good! Super thrilled, most restraunts in Chapin don't have any vegan options. Great vibe in their too. Fancy espresso machine. Fruit when I went was strawberries and blueberries which was nice, usually fruit sides at restraunts are cheaper fruit than berries. All food was very fresh and we did not have to wait long after ordering to receive it.Only think is seating is a bit limited inside, but as long as it's nice outside or you go when they are not busy you're good! Maybe if they got some of those outdoor heaters or plastic walls it would help the outdoor seating in the winter? Idk those can look kinda eh and are not entirely useful and wouldn't want to kill the beautiful vibe.A bit pricy for food at coffee shop (over $50 for 3 adults) but worth it plus I'm willing to pay a little more to a small business than to big corporations.Vegetarian options: Humus wrap is vegan/vegetarian and very good, they might have other veg friendly stuff too, I stopped looking when I found the humus wrap on the menu bur apparently they have vegan chili too?They have 3 different plant-based milks (soy almond and oat I think, or maybe it was soy almond and coconut) for vegan/dairy free coffee beverages, I think there is a $0.60 (?) upcharge for those though.
