Stopped here for a coffee and to work some. Feels very inviting upon walking in and was greeted. They have great options, despite me going with my usual black coffee. Fast internet and service. I will be back for sure, excited to see the whole space once fully open.

This is a beautiful coffee shop! I’m so glad Easley has a coffee shop like this. My friend and I ordered a cortado (which came in a cute small cup) and a chocolate chip cookie and both were phenomenal. The staff are friendly as well. Overall, 10/10 experience!

Grass fed milk. Very important note! Very nice folks and well done coffee. Homemade syrups. Very pleasant atmosphere. My only note would be that the music playlist was too poppy and mainstream for my tastes, but that's just me. I'd prefer something a little more neutral and subdued. But I think the whole building is pumping the same music, so they might not have control over that. It sounds like a thrift store in there. But the quality and the mission and the overall experience more than make up for that! I would definitely come back.

I come to give a review because this is a relatively new ship and I thought it might need the body but it seems everyone else has agreed with me. This place is fantastic. We stumbled upon it when we needed to burn an hour and then came back again a few days later because we were impressed. I consumed almost everything before I remembered to take a photo! We’ve been impressed. The coffee is great and make sure to come ready to get a scone or chocolate chip cookie too.

I never and never have written a review on a place but today I had to. This place is TOO GOOD. it’s amazing!! As soon as I pull in the parking lot the atmosphere is great. I walk in for some coffee and the atmosphere is beautiful. I didn’t know what to get but I wanted to get away from Starbucks as they are a big food chain and always have issues with them. I usually get the brown sugar espresso. While they didn’t have brown sugar yet (she said they would be getting later on maybe next month) the very sweet lady did everything to customize my drink to what I would like based on what I used to get from Starbucks. I think her name was Sarah. She was so nice and gave great service! She made sure I liked my coffee before I left and everything! So coffee was so good. I also got a ham and cheese croissant. I am speechless other than the fact that this is a REAL CROISSANT and doesn’t compare to any fast food chains. How it should be. It was very yummy. I will definetley be making this my new usual place I come for coffee. And will be sharing about this place with family and friends. Love it!! Thank you!!

Stepping in we were met with a friendly staff greeting us. The place is beautiful and relaxing. They have a couch tables and they even have a place by a fire. It’s a very cozy spot place to come by yourself and get something hot to drink and read or do some work. Or to meet someone for a meeting. The coffee is delicious and great quality. The prices are very good as well. I can’t say enough about this place. It’s our new favorite place for coffee. December update. Trying out the peppermint matcha. It is delicious! There October pumpkin coffees were too. This is our new favorite place for sure.

We stopped in for a coffee and dessert after spending time at Southern Weaving food hall. We were Pleasantly greated and told about the dessert options they had available. We enjoyed a chocolate chip cookie with an exceptional shot of expresso. Bitter and sweet... nice combo. We'll definitely come again. And earlier so we can try other menu options before they sell out.

I was visiting from Tennessee and had the pleasure of trying the drip coffee, brown sugar cinnamon latte, peach tea, and apple pie latte, and they did not disappoint! I love my coffee strong and not too sweet, so the drip and apple pie latte were great choices. My sister is hooked on the iced brown sugar latte, and because the shop is in the same building as a play place and food hall, they can visit and take their kids while my brother-in-law works. It’s also a great selling point that the shop is run by the Dream Center — coffee for a cause! I’ll be back next time I’m in town to visit the fam. Friendly and knowledgeable staff too!
