Cool Beans Coffee Co

The perfect woman is iced is good but the hot is way better because the chocolate melts

Terribly rude employees. My friend and I got the same exact drink and hers did not taste the same. She went back to the counter and explained that hers tastes different: burnt, could not taste flavor, or extra shot of espresso, and she was met with rudeness and unwillingness to fix the problem. She said she could just charge her for a new drink, but was unable to remake it. She wasn’t trying to get a free drink or be mean but she should have a coffee that tastes good since she paid for it. Definitely will not be returning due to the horrible customer service, that could’ve easily been fixed.

Fantastic little coffee shop with a cozy and personal interior that combines the warmth of the room with the drink in your hands. The menu is varied and features multiple fun drink options, each one delicious. From hot coffee to frappuccinos, everybody will have something to enjoy here. Personal favorites are the fantasia for a chocolate beverage and a dirty chai latte for something to try some of their floral syrups. Every experience I've had here has been delightful with a staff that provides a fantastic customer service, Hunter and Lee have particularly been stand out, they made each interaction memorable and left me feeling known and valued. This has been a gem of a find and a shop to visit time and time again.

Hello coffee shop vibes 🥰 cute place, even for people who aren't in college anymore 😅 diverse menu with lots of "specials" including a candy corn latte 🤤 I had the honey oat (~$4.50) - so yummy! Lots of vegetarian options. Shares a space with College Grounds Cafe (downstairs). Sit anywhere you like between the two floors! Lots of people studying, chatting, chilling.

I love the art on the walls, as well as the soup of the day. It's a great place to get a drink, sit down, and study. There is also a shelf of board games if you just want to hang out.

Cool Beans is exactly what I want in a coffee place. Good coffee, tasty snacks, lots of options, and it just feels comfortable and not pretentious at all. I really enjoyed my peppermint frappe, although it was hard to pick what exactly I wanted cause everything seemed good. It's the perfect place to chill out with friends or work on homework

Great service & Coffee. The Barista was super knowledgeable and helped me decide on each of the 4 drinks I got. Good selection of snacks, Great vibe and hours!
Only thing that I wasn’t too comfortable with was the stairs, overall great experience, will be back when we are in Columbia again.

Very pleasant girl working here, place is colorful and full of younger people. Good vibe

best matcha latte in sc, ordered a hot matcha latte with oatmilk and honey as sweetener. also the green pasta side with my curry chicken salad sandwich was excellent.

Great lil hidden gem. Must try their homemade lemonade! Friendly staff, clean and quirky environment.
