This coffee shop has two locations, one in the heart of downtown Greenville and one in Greer, South Carolina. Both boast of immaculate vibes from checkered tile floors and gothic-inspired bookshelves, this is the place to be. The staff is always kind and coffee is always good.
This coffee shop has an added bonus of also having some of the best ice cream in town. It is located right on the Falls at Reedy, so you can’t have a better location. Because of this, it does get crowded however. The interior has comfy lounge chairs, stone walls, and big windows. A dream photo location for a photographer.
