Curiosity Coffee Bar

Yall, if you are in Columbia SC you HAVE to come here for the Monster Club. OMG ITS SOOOOO GOOD! It's like a major party in my mouth! The Bing Crosby coffee is pretty good too and the coffee cake warmed up melts in my mouth. Coming here any time I am in Columbia now lol.

Every drink I've gotten here has been fabulous! They normally have two specialty brews each day and they don't make me jittery like Starbucks coffee often does. The environment is dog-friendly and the food is really good too.

Cute cafe, staff was friendly, has nice indoor & outdoor seating, only tried a latte this visit but it was nice, would go again

Good breakfast, delicious coffee, and I always feel safe here. You should definitely come here.

Fantastic coffee, fantastic staff, owners that care deeply about their community and act on that care, vegan options and they allow dogs! One of my favorite places in Columbia and my go to if I want a good cup of coffee and a quiet environment to get work done.

I have been going to Curiosity since it opened and the owners (Greg & Sandra) make this place the epitome of a community minded small business. The transformations they have gone thru over the years (and especially thru Covid) have always been phenomenal. The food and drink menu are always evolving for the better and the space itself is inviting and warm. Have a dog? Bring 'em in (on a leash)! They get a treat for being good boy/girl. The events they put on are always fun and locally sourced. They are always looking to prop up other local small businesses as well. I'm not a vegan or need to have gluten free things but many of their items are and you wouldn't even know it! I kind of now prefer a lot of the vegan or gluten free things they sell, honestly. If I put my favorite meal or drink items here then it would be a couple more paragraphs. Just go and find out for yourself why they are loved by so many! Hope this helps!

so yummy ! amazing vibes, great customer service :D

Curiosity never ceases to provide top shelf service & a warm smile. They are part community cultivation (with the adaptive bodega inventory based on the surrounding neighborhoods or their Mobile Mondays where a wide range of food trucks serve), part unassuming coffee shop. But calling them a coffee shop is a disservice to their product & purpose. Love this place.

Service was pleasant, coffee was delicious, and served quickly. Love this spot.

The best place for coffee in Columbia!! The food is amazing as well and I love the vegan options. Great ambiance. I highly recommend
